Suit Cravings


Classy grunge, Slim cut, Simple, Pinstripe, Grey check and Black, Topshop








I'm a real sucker for some great fashion photography and Topshop is one of my favourite brands- I honestly think they could sell me a potato sack if they styled and photographed it well. Hey, at least I'm admitting to it! These are some of the best shots I have seen from Topshop in a good while and needless to say, I am now craving a suit and have thought of a whole host of places/events I can wear it to. 

My heart has been stolen by the grey check suit, although I'm not sure I can justify the price tag of £150 for it, so I will be hunting around. Wish me luck...

Oh Crêpe!

Pancake day
with a suitable t-shirt,
red lipstick,
overly large earrings
and 
freshly dyed hair.


My emotions towards pancake day displayed perfectly in a photograph.


"Its pancake day already?! What? What?"


"Quick, one must purchase an oversized pot of Nutella!"


"Now hand me the frying pan."

T-Shirt: £7.99, H&M
Jeans: Zara, Sale
Earrings: 50p, Primark, Sale
Lipstick: L'Oreal, £7.99
Hair Dye: La Riche, Turquoise (about £3 on Amazon)

I threw this t-shirt on this morning and only realised quite how appropriate it was to today's celebrations after I had already munched my way through both a Nutella and a lemon and sugar pancake. I took it as a sign that I needed to post it and voice my love for this batter-ey day, so here you are. I hope you've all had a sweet pancake day :)

Moschino AW14

Jeremy Scott

Pop culture meets classic Moschino...













The latest offering from Moschino is certainly very interesting, with influences taken very literally from popular US brands and characters- Sponge bob, Hersheys, McDonalds and more. There are also all of the elements you would expect to see from a Moschino collection- gold chains, leather, pale denim and thick belts. Chanel is also referenced in the McDonalds inspired looks which, I am surprised to find, I like quite a lot. 

Jeremy Scott has shown that  fashion doesn't always have to be serious and has created a collection  that will certainly be remembered. All we need now is to see a fruit-loop-packaging inspired dress on the red carpet.

Topshop Unique AW14


Pastel Lemon, Sheer Nudes, Patchwork Fur, Metallic Puffers, Undone, Pointed Shoes


'A palette of buttermilk, ginger, chestnut and champagne tones featured alongside offbeat pops of royal blue and scarlet' - Topshop blog, Inside-Out 




'Rebellious school girl. Fresh easy and cool.' - Topshop blog, Inside-Out



'Made for the achingly cool girl that was well equipped to face the winter chill.' - Topshop blog, Inside-Out



Topshop Unique has been my favourite show to watch every six months since I started watching the shows (on-line) a couple of years back. I am, as is probably obvious from my outfit posts, a big fan of Topshop as a brand and their designs are always spot on. 

This collection is no different with its stunning colour palette, unexpected shapes, 'achingly cool' styling and gorgeous textures. Everything you would want from a show and more.

All of these photos are taken from the Marie Claire website

Boots: Topshop, £46
Earrings: River Island, sale (a while back)
Ring: H&M, Part of a pack

In an ideal world, these photos would have been taken in a small wood cabin in the forest, complete with little other furniture than an antique wooden chair in one corner and a slept-in bed with its crisp white sheets.There would be large windows with the light of the golden hour streaming though, bathing everything in a warm glow. But, alas, this is not an ideal world, so behold my garden.
