Styled with Glamour Wears... Over the Knee

So christmas is over for another year, I am still feeling full yet I am sitting here writing this slowly making my way yet through more chocolate. Thank god for shift dresses like this one here, perfect for covering up any christmas tummies. Wearing black and blue again, a bit of an undecided mixture, which I really like, mixed with my over the knee boots which have been fab this winter- I love anything you can hide an extra layer under.

I am wearing H&M polo neck, WAREHOUSE dress, NEXT boots and FIORELLI bag. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS

I like to dress up on christmas day not because I am doing anything special, to be honest pyjamas would probably be more practical all day, but just because this is a season where we get to fill our houses with sparkles and cheer. So this year I am going for metallics with this silver skirt which created some fabulous Marilyn moments when taking these photos. 

I hope everyone has a magical christmas, filled with happiness, good food and maybe some pressies too. Lots of love and merry christmas xxx

I am wearing TOPSHOP skirt, M&S jumper, MISS SELFRIDGE shoes, DIY bag and ROYAL LONDON watch

Bonobos Winter Style Challenge

Looks for Bonobos' Winter Style Challenge. Sometimes outfit coordination between you and the man in your life is key especially as the christmas party season arrives so here I have styled looks to accompany Bonobos' new collection of mens suits. I chose two of their winter looks which to me felt like the perfect outfit for a winter or christmas party. I went for dark colours and wintery textures to compliment Bonobos' beautiful mens suits. Finished with heels and minimal accessories for a glamorous style reminiscent of Bonobos' sleek suits. I just need to convince my boyfriend to get one of their suits now...

Winter Dressing

When it's winter having go-to outfits is a must for me especially when getting changed on a cold early morning. A statement coat is perfect for this thrown over an all black outfit. The unusual colour mix makes this one so interesting but more girly style here. With ankle boots for daytime and pointed heels for evening. 

Happy Sunday

Styled With Glamour Wears... The Puffa Coat

I don't know what it is but these days the sort of clothing I want to wear is the kind of thing that I would never have worn about two years ago. Puffa coats is one of those things. I never used to like them, I found them unstylish but now I totally love them. I decided to get a short puffa coat as being rather tiny I didn't want to head toward the michelin man look. I also like this one as adds a hint of colour into my looks without being too OTT. Plus totally style aside, its actually waterproof, probably the first coat I've ever bought that is...

I am wearing ASOS Ellesse puffa coat (I bought it here), TOPMAN t-shirt, ASOS trousers, DOROTHY PERKINS heels and DIY bag.

Styled With Glamour Wears... Probably Too Much Grey

I don't know what it is but I love a skirt with a slit and to be honest pleats too. This is a little DIY number I created from a skirt that was much too big for me. Just chop down one side, fold over and sew the raw edges and add a popper for a wrap around skirt. Could work with most skirts similar too. 

So I will love you and leave you for now, as I am off to work, have a lovely weekend...

I am wearing TOPSHOP jumper, DIY skirt, VINTAGE bag and ASOS heels. 

Styled With Glamour Wears... Subtle Textures

Bit of my favourite colour mix here of navy and black with a splash of white thrown in for good measure. In my uni project at the moment I have been looking at textures a lot, specifically boro and other Japanese textures, so I think this is translating into what I wear. I really like the texture of this top, it stops it from being plain, combined with the pleats.

See you soon...

I am wearing TOPSHOP top, DIY skirt and clutch and ZARA boots.

LFW street style

Some of my street style snapshots from wandering round Somerset House a few weeks ago. I shot quite a range of people, some I asked to pose and others are more natural to get a range and to capture the different moods of LFW. Which is your favourite shot?

Styled With Glamour Wears... Sensible Shoes

Back with black, my typical combo. I have found that my outfits are tending towards a more casual look at the moment and this outfit is no exception. These are my new sensible shoes which are proving fabulous for my commute to college- not been a single blister in sight and I like the almost masculine look they have (my boyfriends brother bought a pair almost exactly the same just after I did)... Have a lovely weekend :)

I am wearing MISS SELFRIDGE leather jacket, ASOS top, DIY slip dress, POPWATCH watch and TOPSHOP shoes.

Styled With Glamour Wears... Oversized and Comfy

Oversized and comfy is becoming quite a staple for me at the moment and this dress is the epitome of that. It is rather like a massive sweatshirt so is great for this between summer and autumn phase when the temperature is very undecided. Finished with simple accessories while I can still risk wearing sandals.

I have a few posts lined up, being weirdly organised for me, including some LFW street style from when I visited Somerset House yesterday for uni. So stay tuned... :)

I am wearing MONKII dress, NEXT sandals, POPWATCH watch and DIY bag.

Proenza Schouler

It's been a while, been busy at uni where I started a foundation diploma two weeks ago. It is so much fun but  I am still in the juggling work and life phase. Today they showed us the Proenza Schouler SS14 show as part of a workshop and I really liked the collection so I thought I would share some of the things that stood out for me such as the small bags, fringed shoes, parkas as well as the colour palette which was rather more autumn/winter than spring/summer.

I shall try and post more often from now although maybe more fashion related posts rather than outfits till I get some free time to take some photos. Have a lovely weekend...

Trainer Edit

In about a week I will be able to class myself as a commuter. I am doing a foundation diploma in London so will be making the journey to and from there everyday from my home. I'll be on the train a bit over 2 hours a day so am looking for some comfy shoes to be wearing, trainers were my top choice as can be worn all year round so here is my little edit of my favourites out on the high street at the moment...

Clockwise from top left: NIKE, TOPSHOP, MONKII, ZARA, ZARA, ADIDAS and ASOS

Styled With Glamour Wears... Leather and Blue // The Reality of Exam Results

Been a crazy past few days, I am super pleased to say I got my A-level results yesterday and that all the hard work paid off. I got my grades and I am off to uni soon, wooo, reality of it all is sinking in and I am feeling rather happy.

I bought this little blue bag as a celebration to myself today and paired it with a leather and black outfit. My usual favourite combo. See you soon... :)

I am wearing M&S jumper, FOREVER 21 skirt, NEXT shoes and FIORELLI bag

Fashion Drawings #1

Different sort of post but I wanted to share some of my fashion drawings with you. They are quite a random selection, each created in a different sort of media but I hope you like them :)

Styled With Glamour Wears... The Boilersuit

Oh the boilersuit, probably not something I ever assumed I would wear let alone just as a fashion statement. Well this isn't exactly a boilersuit, more a jumpsuit that definately has similarities to an actual boilersuit, but is  lightweight, ties at the waist and looks fab with heels... what more could you want with an all in one outfit :)

I am wearing NEW LOOK boilersuit/jumpsuit, TOPSHOP necklace, ASOS heels and DIY bag.
