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. 

Clompy Shoes

I still have a little bit of love for 'ugly' shoes so these I think are a little bit perfect, a little clompy and beautifully shiny. Hope you are having a lovely weekend...

I am wearing M&S jumper, DIYed vintage skirt, MISS SELFRIDGE hat, TAMARIS shoes 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... 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.

Styled With Glamour Wears... The Knitted Jumper

Another knitted creation my amazing gran created for me. I have so much respect for knitting as a skill, to be able to create all these different patterns and designs out of a simple ball of wool is amazing, I think it is about time I picked up the knitting needles for myself again. We based the design on a zara jumper I had seen which featured the beautiful stitch that makes up the front of this jumper. And a plus is because it is knitted in aran it is so so warm. Paired with my peg leg trousers which smarten the look and are a nice change from jeans. I thought I might just briefly mention my hair, I had a few inches off to even out the length and get rid of my layers creating the blunt finish I wanted. 

Thanks for reading.

I am wearing Jumper knitted by my gran, ASOS trousers and NEW LOOK heels.

Styled With Glamour Wears... Black and Grey

Hope you are having a good week, here is what I wore today a classic everyday look with my trusty black jeans and leather jacket. I will be back with a longer post tomorrow, I was sewing away all day and I cannot wait to show you the result. 

I am wearing MISS SELFRIDGE leather jacket, MONKII dress worn as top, TOPSHOP jeans and NEW LOOK shoes. 

Grey and Pink

Grey and pink is a colour mix I really love almost as much as I love black and white, the two colours have such a softness to them which creates a delicate palette for a look. I bought these shoes a few weeks ago and I instantly knew they would look perfect with grey jeans so after some hunting I found these in H&M, a soft block colour and perfect ankle length (and at a very good price!) I also wanted to add a bit of depth to the look so I finished with my leopard satchel and dark sunnies! 

I hope you have had a fab bank holiday I went down to a local music event which is where these photos were taken and where the architecture of grey slates and white pillars complimented my look perfectly! 

I am wearing blouse made my me, H&M jeans, Clarks shoes, Parfois bag and vintage sunglasses.
