AUTUMN WINTER COAT INSPIRATION


Hello Everyone
It's official, coat season is upon us. In the last week Wales has experienced freezing fog, torrential rain and bitterly cold wind.  Winter has most definitely arrived in the last seven days. For me, as someone who feels the cold, coats and jackets are a must over the winter months. I've spent the last few weeks browsing the high street in search of a new winter coat/jacket. Today I wanted to share with you my favourite styles ruling the rails this season.


1. ASOS
2. Topshop 
The puffer coat is one of the most popular trends this winter. I love how warm and cozy it looks, like you are wrapping yourself in a duvet. Choosing the perfect one for you will be easy as there are so many out there to choose from. Khaki to red, long to short  - there is something for everyone. My favourite is the navy one from Topshop.



3. ASOS
For a smarter coat this winter the woolen trench is still the number one choice. The tailored cut of the coat creates the ultimate girl boss outfit, perfect for those cold yet dry days during winter. This grey one from Topshop has gone straight to the top of my wish list.




Who doesn't like a shearling jacket in the winter, it's just like being wrapped in a blanket all day. I am loving the way the high street are experimenting with different colour ways for the classic jacket. My favourite is the khaki one from Marks & Spencer. 


I hope this post has got you as excited as I am for coat season.

See you Sunday for another Halloween inspired post.

Trend Watch: Embroidered Fashion

Hello Everyone!

One of my favourite trends that is currently dominating the high street is embroidered clothing. If you have visited the high street lately or scrolled through ASOS, you will have most definitely seen this eye-catching trend. I’ve been loving seeing this fun trend circulating Instagram and Pinterest and couldn’t wait to try it out myself.


I first purchased an embroidered bomber jacket. I fell in love with this River Island jacket as soon as I saw it! The embroidered roses bring life to the jacket and turn it from a staple piece of clothing into a statement piece. The dark red colour of the roses against the satin material makes this jacket perfect for the upcoming autumn and winter months.

After buying my bomber jacket, I couldn’t wait to add to my embroidery collection. These Topshop mom jeans are the perfect pair for me; I had been looking for a pair of boyfriend jeans for months so you can imagine my excitement when I spotted these embroidered ones! I love how the floral detail is on both the top and the bottom of the leg, as if the flowers were growing up the leg. These jeans are so easy to wear, paired with a tucked in white top and trainers it's the ideal weekend outfit.

I have a feeling that these two items of clothing will not be the only embroidered garments I will indulge in buying this season. I just love the extra detail embroidery adds to my wardrobe!! Let us know if you're loving the trend and which embroidered items you've spotted in the high street. 

Until Sunday,

SUMMER GETAWAY: Style File

Welcome to this week's Summer Getaway post! Today we're talking all things style and what to wear while you're on holiday. If you missed our first Summer Getaway post last week, read it here, as we'll be creating our style looks for those destinations!


  Beach Getup 

  Look One 

We are loving all-white everything this summer, especially as this pure colour makes your tan look amazing! Taking inspiration from boho chic, we created this gorgeous beach outfit. Perfect for chilled out days topping up your tan on the beach. 

                   Top: Topshop                      Shorts: Topshop              Hat: Topshop                Necklace: Accessorize             Shoes: Topshop



  Look Two

This relaxed, thrown-together look is perfect for summer. Team a classic white tee with a slouchy boyfriend-fit shirt, some comfy shorts and a floppy hat and you're all set for exploring the local town, or going for a walk along the beach. We love the use of gold jewellery too - it finishes off this look. We've paired our look together with this gorgeous powder blue Olivia Burton watch.

             Shorts: River Island           Shirt: Free People          Floppy Hat: Topshop         T-Shirt: Topshop          Watch: Olivia Burton



Bright Lights, Big City

Look One 

When we think of NY style, we think of effortless chic with an edge. We decided to create an outfit centred around tailored trousers. This pastel pink pair of cropped trousers are perfect for summer days in New York. We decided to pair these trousers with flat pumps but this outfit would be perfect for the evening paired with nude heels. 

             Trousers: ASOS                        Top: Missguided                             Shoes: H&M                                  Bag:  Topshop


   Look Two 

This outfit is perfect for stopping for lunch and drinks in the city sunshine. The neutral colours make this outfit look effortless and city-chic. Swap these strappy heels for some flats for a more relaxed outfit to explore the streets of New York (and do a little shopping, obviously!)

                    Blouse: H&M                            Bag: Zara                            Skirt: Zara                              Heeled Sandals: New Look



Stay Styled

Look One

Inspired by the 70s style that is seen everywhere this season, this relaxing outfit is ideal for when you're exploring your staycation location. We paired a suede T-shirt dress with black gladiator sandals and tassel cross body bag for this casual 70s look.

                              Dress: Asos                                        Shoes: Topshop                                        Bag: Missguided


Look Two

A white tee and blue jean combo is always a classic look for summer. It's casual and comfortable: perfect for exploring seaside towns and lunching on the coast in the summer breeze. We styled this look with black and white trainers with a boxy, black quilted bag.

                   T-shirt: ASOS                     Trainers: New Balance                      Jeans: Topshop                         Bag: Zara



The Party Dress

Look One

For an evening look we felt that this white lace playsuit was perfect, accessorised with a discreet gold arm cuff. We decided to add a pop of colour to this outfit through the shoes and bag with these bright blues shoes and bag. These look great with the simplistic white playsuit and are ideal for summer nights. 

                      Playsuit: Missguided            Arm Cuff: ASOS               Shoes:River Island                 Bag: River Island 



    Look Two

This pastel blue and white skater-style dress is the perfect option for day-to-night wear. We love the plunge neckline and spaghetti straps on this Missguided number, and paired with white accessories, like these chic heeled sandals and boxy bag will instantly dress up your outfit for an evening spent sipping cocktails by the sea.

                    Dress: Missguided                             Strappy Heels: New Look                                   Bag: Topshop


We hope this post has given you some inspiration for different outfits you could wear on holiday, wherever the destination!
We are very excited for Monday's post: a Father's Day gift-guide (because we all know how hard it is to buy for our dads!)
