Snake Boots

Another simple everyday outfit, this time a black and could be oatmeal, could be beige, combination, showing off my new boots. I love their snake print and are so easy to wear to liven up an outfit. What's even better they were £15, which as a student, is a fab bargain. This will have to be short, I have a portfolio to finish and an interview tomorrow (eek), see you soon...

I am wearing ZARA jumper, TOPSHOP jumpsuit and bag and M&S boots.  

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...

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... 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.

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... Off the Shoulder

Another monochrome outfit you are probably thinking but I can't deny I am still in a bit of a colour phobic phase so is probably one of my personal favourite combinations. Another of my favourite trends at the moment is off the shoulder tops, there is just something so feminine about showing off the collarbone area. 

I paired my floaty top with peg leg trousers to balance out the fabric on top and finished off with my rather beautiful but to be honest not the comfiest heels. I bought the heels for my prom not that long ago and I knew they wouldn't quite last me the whole night but I couldn't resist them anyway :) 

I am wearing TOPSHOP top, ASOS trousers and heels, DIY bag and POPWATCH watch.

Summer Time

I'm back and pretty much free for summer now until I start uni in September, so fingers crossed I will be able to post more often. Since the weather was so lovely today, me and my sister went to our local park to take some photos among the trees and sunshine. Wearing a bit more colour than usual with this floaty cami and my Birkenstock style sandals which I am currently rather obsessed with. I never thought I would wear sandals like this as my feet are rather narrow but they fit just right and are just so comfy. 

I am wearing H&M top, TOPSHOP skirt, NEXT sandals and bracelets from Portugal.

Styled With Glamour Wears... Stripes

Very quick post to give you a snapshot of todays look featuring my new striped trousers. I've just had a lovely week in Portugal with my friends and I am off to Paris in the morning, so things here are pretty crazy and exciting. I'll be back soon when things have settled with some new looks... see you soon :)

I am wearing MISS SELFRIDGE jacket, FRENCH CONNECTION top, TOPSHOP jeans, DOROTHY PERKINS shoes and MUK sunglasses.

Monochrome and Asos Fashion Finder Awards

Hello there, I'm here with some exciting news that I've been nominated in the Asos Fashion Finder Awards in the 'One To Watch' category, so if you want to spread some love (ie. like my look) and check out the other nominees, they are here or there is a link on the little panel on the right of the blog page. Thank you :)

Anyway just a little black and white outfit here too, bit of leather, classic shirt and my pearl necklace again...

I am wearing TOPSHOP shirt and necklace, ZARA leather leggings, NEW LOOK shoes and POPWATCH watch.

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
