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.

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...

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

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...

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.

Neckerchief

I have seen the neckerchief featured on blogs recently (inspiration: here and here) and seeing as I already have a fair collection of scarf I wanted to give the look a try...

I am wearing VINTAGE scarf, NEXT jumper, ZARA jeans, DOROTHY PERKINS shoes and DIY bag

Styled With Glamour Wears...Slouchy

Very casual look today swapping stilettos for slip on trainers and skinny for slouchy trousers, perfect look for the half term and just catching up on school work and running errands.

Styled With Glamour Wears... Lace Up Jeans

I've been looking for some jeans with lace up sides ever since I saw the Isabel Marant for H&M leather trousers which were just a bit too far out of my price range, so when I saw these in Zara the other day I grabbed them straight away and almost ran to the till. Paired with this super cosy jumper, it is still quite cold here and my favourite heels.

Styled With Glamour Wears... The Shearling Jacket

Just a quick late night post featuring my shearling jacket which is fast becoming my favourite thing to wear to stay warm at the moment. Here I paired it with a feminine skirt and chunky jumper finished with leather accessories. 

Sorry for the brief post, life is very busy at the moment so I must get some sleep...

Borrowed From the Boys

A great feature of having this blog is that it has captured my changing style. When I started this blog my style was very much influenced by vintage looks but now and especially in this outfit it's crazy how different it is. Todays look is very much borrowed from the boys with slip on trainers and beanie, something when I started this blog I would never have worn. It makes me wonder what my style will be like this time next year or even 10 years from now, will I still like the minimalist look or will I revert back to a more vintage style... I guess only time will tell.

Styled With Glamour Wears... The Skort

A very belated happy new year. I'm back with a few new purchases in the form of this jumper and skort which were waiting on my doorstep when I got home from school. The Zara skort was all over the blogosphere last year but I never jumped to the trend, mainly because it didn't fit me, but when I spotted this Asos one I loved it's classic look and thought I would order it. I am so happy that it fits so well and I'm sure it will end up making multiple appearances on here as it is a very versatile piece. I am also hoping I will be able to get away with it for school as we aren't really allowed to wear shorts but this looks like a skirt from the front so I'm pretty sure no one will notice...

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...

Winter Wonderland

Yesterday my family and I made our annual visit up to london to visit the Winter Wonderland and see the christmas lights. We usually visit before christmas but we just didn't get the chance this year. I had a very cosy outfit on with a fur lined coat and boots, perfect as it was rather cold and we always end up walking a long way. Just a couple of photos from our day out my favourite things being the beautifully colourful sweets and treats in the market and all the twinkly lights.

Happy Belated Christmas

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. 

This is what I wore yesterday on boxing day wearing my fur gilet, boots and bag which I had been given for christmas. 

RARE gilet, M&S jumper (bought in charity shop), ZARA leather leggings, BOOHOO boots, MUSE handbag and sunglasses from London Market.

Styled With Glamour Wears... The Basics

Bit of a back to basics sort of outfit: trench coat, leather jacket, white t-shirt and ripped jeans. All finished with stilettos and a tiny clutch. Just what a cold tuesday needs, although if I am totally honest I did have boots on and a huge bag for school but these look so much better. It really is starting to get cold now so the layers are returning hence the two jackets today, I have decided as much as I hate winter and being freezing most of the time I do enjoy playing with layering.

Hope your having a lovely week
