Happy New Year Last outfit of 2014

Happy New Year bring on 2015 a year of new trends new finds and new adventures!!!!!

My last outfit post for 2014 thought it would only be right to end it with one of my fav buys of this year which is my baby blue leather skirt from H&M which was £29.99 but now only £14.99 so grab a bargain while u can.




Still in process of adding more nudes to my wardrobe these are still my only nude shoes "covers face" I love faux fur in winter and this pink clutch from Newlook is a must such a perfect size and so comfy to carry. 

I rarely wear my hair out straight as I have naturally curly hair and I'm completely rubbish with a pair of straighteners but some how miracously got it straight.

Ready for autumn

To me autumn equals layering season and could not believe my eyes when I spotted this Cape in H&M so by now I'm sure you have realised im a bit of an H&M freak!! I just love their stuff and so affordable I also purchase a lot of my kids stuff from their too.

So back to the Cape for only £25 I think you can't go wrong if you see it and want it buy it!! It's only been in stores for a week and is trending alot on inatagram so no doubt it will be a sell out at that price. 

I can't wait to layer this baby up but for today I just threw it on with a midi dress.

I've been on a hunt for a decent leather jacket and found this one from H&M
It's really thick and good quality for what it is only downfall is because it's thick it's hard to roll up the sleeves!

Blog post fail

When your trying to get that shot and the wind won't cooperate!!! 

I'm totally digging fedora hats right now thanks to Pharell making them look uber cool. 


Autumn is here and I'm still in the process of changing up my wardrobe colour pallette, I'm in love with my new navy mac despite it being four sizes too big for me I think it still works. 

It's not always about the size on the label it's about how you want the clothing to fit you.



Wind, wind go away come back another day!

Khaki vs gold

So as it's getting cold I started to crave wearing more darker colours, one my all time favourites when it comes to spring/winter is khaki mixed up with gold. I just love it!! 




Everyone is falling in love with this jumpsuit how can you not at only £14.99 and such a versatile piece for the wardrobe can easily be transformed from a day to night look. 



Jumpsuit £14.99 H&M 

If your not short like me the length of these can be rolled down. Aswell as the sleeves.




Necklace £6 Primark 



Chunky gold belt H&M 

I love this belt goes with so much wether it be a chunky cardigan, dress or jumpsuit it adds instant glam to any outfit, I purchased this last winter but they still have it in stock.

 
Black shoes £6 new look

I always seem to find the best bargains when it comes to footwear in the New Look sales.

My first thrift

I love all things vintage and can't believe I've never been thrifting I've braught the occasional teaset and other little bits but never clothes.

My mums always been into thrifting and I used to think she was crazy but as I got older I realised you can pic up some real gems in charity/vintage shops but for some reason I just never got around to it. 

So for the first time ever I found myself thrifting in Camden I wasn't even ment to be shopping was on my way to dinner.


I've walked past this Traid shop a million times and always thought it was just a charity shop not realising it also sold vintage clothing accessories I love the fact that all items our clearly marked wether they are vintage or not and state the dates of how old they are.



Photo from Traid website you can find them at 154 Camden high street NW1 0NE their our various other branches.




So this houndstooth blazer was the first thing I spotted and instantly fell in love I couldn't not buy it when I had seen it only cost £19.99 I could of easily got carried away but for once I was sensible and just purchased the blazer.









I defiantly will be thrifting more often for unique one off buys.

Blazer £19.99 Traid

Coco made me do it T-Shirt in previous post from eBay 

Skorts £9.99 primark 

Shoes £6 New Look sale

Neon affair

Always have and always will love my bright colours in particular neon yellows and pinks. 






 
I'm loving silver accessories at the moment, I have been dying to get my hands on this silver backpack from newlook I think it's so cool and really does add some sass to any outfit wether casual or dressed up.







My whole outfit was based around my dress which I purchased a few years ago from primark but never got around to wearing it, I hate waisting clothes and believe it's not always about buying new clothes sometimes you just need some new accessories to bring an outfit back to life.

I'm such a bargain hunter when it comes to fashion I don't believe you have to spend loads of money to look good it's all about how you style it.

Dress primark 

Blazer Newlook sales £7.00
Also got a neon yellow one for same price.

Shoes Newlook sales £6.00 can't believe I only paid £6 for these shoes I was on a mission to find a pair of silver shoes and found these, don't you just love it when you think your paying full price for an item  than get to the till to find out it's gone in the sale.

Silver rucksack Newlook £19.99
