My Godson's Christening

Events like christenings and weddings can always be difficult to chose an outfit for; always trying to wear something appropriate but also fun and fashionable. I chose to wear my favourite pair of patterned cigarette trousers, with a bright top and statement necklace. I paired this with these beautiful shoes, which aren't the most comfortable but I love them and how ladylike they are. To finish the outfit I plaited my hair and then curled it up into a bun at the side of my head.

Top: Topshop

Trousers: Topshop

Shoes: Asos

Necklace: River Island

Mother's Day dinner

I always like to experiment with clothes and so for me any occasion is the perfect occasion. On Sunday I went for dinner with my family; and used the excuse to wear some new clothes I had purchased and not had anywhere to wear them yet. 

Dress: Asos

Belt: H&M

Tights: Asos

These tights are one of my favourite pairs because as well as being practical in this cold weather, the stripes make them that little bit more interesting. I absolutely love a little bit of unusual detail in an outfit. This dress is easy to dress up and dress down for whatever occasion, and the heavily embellished belt is another way to add some interesting detail to the whole outfit.

I've been feeling for a while that I wanted to share my ideas for outfits and clothes I've been wearing; but been at a bit of a loss about where I should do this. And then I thought, where better to share my thoughts than on a blog? I always look through magazines and websites full of incredible but hugely out of my price range clothing; and so my idea with this blog is to replicate some high fashion looks for a high street price tag...as well as some of my own favourite outfits from my wardrobe. 

So here we go...

I have noticed over the last few weeks how much of a comeback ripped jeans are making. Like probably most of you I had banished mine to the back of my wardrobe a few seasons ago, but now they are back on the up I have dug them back out, but tried a SS'13 twist by turning up the bottoms just a couple of times. This brings an old pair of jeans right up to date; without having to go out and buy a new pair! Which my purse is incredibly happy about. I've styled them with the current weather still in mind; although I'm not quite brave enough to wear this outside in the cold yet!
