the checked shirt

Hey guys! Here's some photos of me swanning about in a Reading car park #glamlife. I've just got back from a week at my parent's place in Spain which was total relaxation! While I had some time out I thought I'd get editing and finally put up a new blog post on here. I know I've been super inconsistent on this but I really want to try to stick at it this time.. (just as the weather's getting worse and the nights are getting darker) wish me luck!

the statement jacket

Spring is finally here! I am so happy with how these photos turned out, I think this jacket definitely suits the surroundings. It's one I forced my dad into buying me in the Spanish sales about a year or two ago, I was dying over it at the time but I've actually found that more often than not I reach for a plain coloured coat and shy away from anything 'statement'. Anyone else have that problem?

the green parka jacket

Wearing a full Zara look today without even realising it (I am so obsessed with that brand). This jacket has seriously been my life saver this winter though. I snapped it in the Black Friday sales when I realised I didn't own a green parka (I know right) and I've worn it almost every day! Which is a rare occasion for me considering the sheer volume of clothes I have. I've had the most stressful week ever at work so i'm pretty drained hence the casual outfit, but it's perfect for a walk along the river and a pub lunch!

the denim jacket

I've had these trousers for a while and they're still some of my favourites. They're so comfy I feel like i'm wearing pyjamas! These shoes are another amazing Forever 21 score, sometimes certain trousers just don't suit a slipper or a brogue shoe you know? 

Happy Monday!

the dungarees

Guys I can't even tell you HOW long i've been looking for a (black) pair of dungarees! I've never had a long pair and i've been looking for a few years, but all of the high st style's i've tried on never seem to fit right. Either they're too long on the body or don't fit around the hips, I've realised a good pair is pretty tricky to find. I saw these on ASOS for £65 and thought fuck it, I need to up my price range if i'm going to get a pair that fits. Thank god! They're unbelievably comfy and I can't wait to style these into so many different looks!

The denim dress

So denim has been everywhere lately - mostly thanks to Alexa Chung and her amaaazing range for AG jeans (see here). The sun was out last weekend so I decided to whip out my trusty old Topshop denim dress. There's not much to it really but I love how it looks with my black boots and biker jacket. In summer i'm thinking I can rock it with some cute embellished sandals to switch it up. Excuse the midday sun in these photos, not ideal but hey I was off to London!

I'm back..

Hey guys, it's been a while! Over 2 years in fact.. Can't believe how much time has passed since my last post. I didn't plan to stop, but I got a full time job out of uni and moved my life down South, everything was very exciting and busy. Life just got in the way as they say! But lately i've been itching to get back into it, it's going to be a challenge trying to juggle this with my job - but i'll give it a go :)

Here's a snapshot of what i've been up to so far this year from my instagram, let me know what you've been up to!
