Totally Topshop

After long days of college and evenings of coursework, I love to use the little space between coursework and crashing into bed, to browse and surf the web, spending the majority of the time on online shopping. 

Recently, I have been lusting after a few bits and bobs in Topshop, but having no money at the moment due to going to London for a couple of days, I can wish but can't buy! 

First up on the wishlist are the Blackwatch Check Leggings  which I discovered on Stylish Behaviour's blog, currently selling for £25. 

My second top pick is the Wool Biker Jacket, which my lovely friend Maisie was sporting at college (she has great style!). When seeing it, I got very jealous and still lust after it whenever she's wearing it! I'm not 100% sure if this one is exactly the same as Maisie's but it's just as gorgeous!

Now if you read my blog, you'll know I have a slight craze and love for shoes, especially when they come under the category 'boy meets girl' (was I destined to be the opposite gender?!). Anyway, when I saw this next pair of boots my heart leaped and then sunk after reading their hefty price tag. However, I've posted a picture of the Traditional Brogue Boots by Loake anyway to show my appreciation and so that you can also drool at them in your heart's desire! 

And finally, another pair of boots in the same colour as the beauties above. The Affanita Mid Heel Chelsea boots are an autumn staple, keeping you feet warm and super stylish. At a reasonable price of £62, I will definitely keep my eyes on these as well as drop many hints for Christmas!

Okay, so I set up a youtube channel a while ago but hadnt really posted much on it but finally I have found some spare time to do so! (the joys of easy upload via iPad!) 

If youve got a minute, please feel free to watch any of my videos about me rambling on about recent buys and fashion bits and bobs I like (basically, my blog in video form!) 

The video below is of my latest shoe purchase with me expressing just how much I love them!

Outfit Of The Day #3

The weather today was absolutely freezing (well it is England), so jeans were my first point of call. I'm not really one for a hoodie and jeans so I try to dress for both warmth and style. 

For this outfit I teamed my black studded Boohoo boots with my studded leather jacket to go with the 'rebel' trend this season, but also they're my favourite things at the moment so am always happy to wear them! While searching through my wardrobe I also trudged out my old purple jeans which add a bit of vibrant colour to my look. Finally, my shirt and collar chain (both from Primark) keep the look quite sophisticated whilst the chain adds that extra bit of bling.

Weekend Wishlist

I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while; A-Levels are ridiculously time consuming! 

This post is simply a little wish list of clothes that have been catching my eye recently on various online retail websites which I love but cannot necessarily afford (sigh). 

Piece 1 is a brilliant Burgundy Tailored Blazer from Topshop. I love blazers; the way they fit in at the waist and can smarten up any pair of jeans, creating the ultimate 'boy meets girl' look. 

2 and 3 are both from one of my favourite brands: Jack Wills, a fairly high end store with quality tailored looks and logo printed t-shirts. These two wool blazers are something I can only dream of purchasing (due to a hefty price tag!) but are definitely a staple in any heritage lovers wardrobe. Both blazers are made in collaboration with British cloth manufacturer, Moon, meaning by purchasing the jacket you're also helping the British clothing industry (a valid reason for making yourself feel better after buying it?). 

High street and online retailer Urban Outfitters provide the masses with quirky alternative clothes in great designs. The 'Staring at Stars Lace Back Playsuit' (4) would be great to wear as casual daywear but could also be styled into the night with a leather jacket and boots with a wedged heel. Urban Outfitters describe it as 'folksy-inspired...featuring a...bold print' with colours making it perfect for autumn/winter. 

Finally, número 5 is just a simple striped top that I have wanted for a while now as they go with a variety of things and are suitable for every season. This particular one is from River Island.
