Cold as Ice

- shorts & top / zara -

I hastily bought these mint leopard print shorts from Zara.  Usually when I buy something with haste and not much thought I either return it or it sits in my wardrobe unworn for months (I know, very bad!).  I decided I was going to return them, but after trying them on again today, I realised if I sent them packing I would regret it (potentially) forever - can't have that!  It was this combo that saved them.  Teamed with another Zara purchase - a chunky knitted vest which comes right up to the collar bone.


I'm gonna be wearing these babies day and night, just you try and stop me!

Grey Days

-top / topshop, jeans / zara, ring / monica vinader-

Here's an outfit I wore recently.  The jeans are a very light pink, rather than the white that they appear in this photo.  I wore them with one of my favourite jumpers - a very thin grey knit from Topshop, and one of my Monica Vinader rings.  Perfect for the not quite warm, but not very cold weather.

Dressing Up Dressing Down

-dress & shirt/asos-


Do you ever have those days where you look inside your wardrobe & can't seem to find anything that fits the day you have planned ahead?  I have those days, & today was no exception.  I often find myself trying on dresses that I know I won't wear that day.  Almost an hour I'll spend rifling through my possessions to see if I can breathe new life into my old loves.  I enjoy the creativity of it and it also helps me figure out what I'm missing in my wardrobe.  


I ended up playing with this red leopard print dress from ASOS & after my hour of trying it with various jumpers, cardigans, jackets, belts, necklaces, tops & tights I ended happily content with the image above.  After all that I replaced my clothes to their hangers & wore another dress - I told you I knew I wouldn't wear it that day, it doesn't suit the day I have planned ahead (a lazy day...).  I hope you're all enjoying your weekend.
