The Nightshirt

Everyone keeps describing this dress as a nightshirt but this is what makes it so great, the style of a shirt dress and comfort of pyjamas all in one. I can feel it will be worn on repeat all summer.

I have also recently got Instagram so feel free to check it out here, I am hoping to use it to show more of my fashion design work which is my true passion as well as illustrations too. I can feel myself getting addicted following Dazed and ID as well as designers I love like Marques'Almeida and Christopher Raeburn all mixed up with the adorable images of cats and dogs I can find :)

Have a fabulous weekend...

I am wearing TOPSHOP shirt dress, DR DENIM jeans, MISS SELFRIDGE shoes, FIORELLI bag and PRIMARK sunglasses.

Grey Skies

A grey outfit for a grey day...

I don't really enjoy playing with colour in my outfits, I prefer playing with textures and fabrics. Like here where I have mixed suit-like trousers with soft knitwear and leather. 

Posting on here has been a bit irregular recently, still juggling my foundation course, portfolio's and interviews at the moment, but its nearly over, just one to go now- eek- then its decisions on where to go next year. I am thinking of doing a post or two soon more on my work and designs rather than just outfits, so see you with some new things soon.

I am wearing MISS SELFRIDGE jacket, WAREHOUSE jumper, ASOS trousers and shoes. 

Little Bit Cold Outside

My christmas skirt is back in a more casual set up with long layers and a cosy scarf. As you can probably see it was rather cold when we took these so really I need a big warm coat. The wonderful sacrifices of fashion though. 

I am wearing MANGO jumper and scarf, TOPSHOP skirt, MISS SELFRIDGE shoes and DIY bag. 

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. 

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... 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

Styled With Glamour Wears... White Midi

Oops a second monochrome outfit in a row, what can I say it is still my go to colour combo. A bit more of a chilled look today with flat sandals and a tshirt. This skirt has been my project of today, it started this morning as my nans size 18 almost maxi skirt and is now my much more flattering split midi. I still need to create a bit of a lining for it as it is rather sheer but I am pleased with the (almost) end result. This skirt shape is one of my favourite designs, having already made it once before here back in April. Although this time was more of an alteration than making it from scratch, it fills the white skirt shaped whole in my wardrobe. 

I also wanted to mention I got a new blog header, woo finally...I have been wanting one for a long time so got my talented uncle to create one for me and I really do love it, the cool font and star is much more me, so big thanks to my uncle :) 

I am wearing MISS SELFRIDGE leather jacket, TOPMAN tshirt, DIY skirt, PARFOIS bag and NEXT sandals. 

Styled With Glamour wears... Pearl Choker

These culottes are going to become a bit of a regular on here, I have a little bit of an obsession with them at the moment. But I am looking for a navy pair to expand my collection so hopefully you won't have to get bored of seeing this black pair. 

This look is all about the accessories with a plain black base and a cheeky peak-a-boo back jumper. Starting with the necklace, of course a take on the Chanel pearl choker so when I found this high street version I couldn't resist as well as some matching earrings. Finished with delicate rings and my new watch which with its snap design and bright white colour is just a little bit of fun.

I am wearing ZARA jumper, ASOS culottes, TOPSHOP necklace, ACCESSORIZE earrings, DOROTHY PERKINS heels, FENWICKS ring and POPWATCH watch

Styled With Glamour Wears... Culottes

It finally feels like summer so out come the sandals and pasty limbs. I am taking a break from revision to show you my mid-exams treat with these culottes. I always find online shopping a good distraction from revision even if it isn't so good for my bank balance but anyway I am sure writing about how difficult a-level maths is is not going to be at all exciting, so I will just leave you with this look. 

Adding a splash of colour with this printed blouse, which is just a beautifully draped shape. Black all round lets the greens and blues pop and the relaxed culottes and clutch make this a really comfortable summery look perfect for the heat. Finally finished with study leave hair (read: I rolled out of bed like this)

Enjoy the sunshine, I will hopefully be back to more regular posting soon when exams are over and I have regained the will to put on nice clothes rather than pyjamas :) 

I am wearing ZARA blouse and sandals, ASOS culottes, MUK sunglasses and DIY clutch

Styled With Glamour wears... Midi and Stripes

Its been crazy long since I last posted, a huge mix of good and bad days. The bad I won't mention but good days, have included going to the Vogue Festival on sunday which was so much fun and to top it off its starting to feel like spring is here. 

But anyway I know I have worn this skirt on here before but I still love it so here it is again with stripes, stilettos and a slouchy trench. Hopefully with the nice weather I will be feeling much more inspired and will have more frequent posts to share with you. 

Thanks for reading

Flashback...

Bit of a flashback post as I found this look which I didn't post when it was taken. Although I think this was last summer I would still wear this now and the background is super pretty making a change from where I usually take photos.

I am wearing MISS SELFRIDGE jacket, NEW LOOK top and skirt, WAREHOUSE bag and CARVELA trainers.

Let's Bring on 2014

Rather than reminisce on 2013 and show you various photos of the past year, I want to focus on what's to come. So here is a new outfit with my jumpsuit which I haven't shown on here yet. It is such an effortless item that can be worn in many ways. Here I paired it with pointed stilettos and an oversized clutch as well as my slouchy trench coat which has been one of my favourite items this year. 

All that's left is for me to wish you a very happy new year. Let's bring on 2014, I have a feeling it could be a good year...

Happy Belated Christmas, hope you all had a wonderful day. I sure had a good one, too much food, some lovely presents and lots of festive cheer.
