Checks, denim, Dr Marten OOTD….

Shirt - Topshop

Shorts - Sportsgirl

Bag - Collarado @ Strandbags

Boots - Dr Martens

Belt - Dorothy Perkins

Sunglasses - Ray Ban

Watch - ASOS

Nails - Essie Blanc

Lips - Mac Morange

I love those carefully planned outfits that look thrown together. I've been searching for an oversized black and white checked shirt and finally found this one hiding behind a load of other checked numbers in the Birmingham Bullring Topshop. Paired with some denim shorts and black boots I just love how thrown together the whole thing looked. And, as always, my colour injection for this outfit came in the form of a nice bright lipstick…all hail Mac Morange as being my absolute favourite bright lipstick. Ever. 

What's everyone else's go-to outfits at the moment?

Twickenham OOTD...

So I went to watch England vs Barbarians at Twickenham last week in the corporate box (cheers for winning the tickets Dad!) and loved my outfit! Again another simple one, just jeans and a black t-shirt, with my trusty Dr Martens and a blazer. I actually put my extensions in as well for a change! 

T-shirt - Cotton On (Australia)

Jeans - Zara

Blazer - Vera Moda

Handbag - Aldo

Watch & Necklace - Asos

And of course, here's a few pictures of the match because who doesn't like looking and a bunch of rugby players??

Simple monochrome and denim OOTD….

Top & Watch - ASOS

Jeans - Topshop Joni jeans

Shoes - Dr Marten

Socks & Shirt - Primark

Sometimes keeping it simple is best, right? I bought these jeans on a recent trip to Birmingham and now I'm fairly certain that my life won't be complete until I own them in every colour/finish. Quite easily the best fitting jeans I've ever had the pleasure of wearing. I'm also 100% certain these are my favourite shoes I've ever owned, especially teamed with frilly socks and a monochrome outfit. Delicate necklace, chunky gold watch and natural hair and I'm done.

A floral OOTD from someone who hates florals….

Shirt - Topshop

Leggings & ring - Primark

Boots - Dr Marten

I'm not the worlds biggest floral lover by any stretch of the imagination….but I found this shirt lurking in the depths of my wardrobe last week and decided that, even though it has more of an Autumnal air about it, I'd give it a shot. I love this style of shirt, perfect to throw on with leggings and boots with an oversized denim jacket for cooler days. 

How else would you style something like this?

My go-to spring outfit….and no floral prints in sight….

Top - vintage shop

Jeans - Zara

Bag - River Island

Dr Martens - Dr Marten shop

Watch - ASOS

Sunglasses - RayBan 

I'm sorry but spring does not always = pastel and floral. I find spring the hardest season to buy clothes for as shops seem to be full of pretty prints and cute colours which, in general, are not for me. So this spring I'll be living in my skinny jeans, black boots and vest top. If I'm going to do colour….it will be on my lips. Usually in the form of a red-orange matte lipstick.

Anyone else not a floral fan? Or am I on my own here?

Aztec brights OOTD....

Dress - Primark 

Boots - Dr Marten

Bag - Australian market

Watch - Jag at Myer (Australia)

Just a casual outfit for shopping in Brisbane a little while ago, beautiful weather but still needed some good shoes for pounding the pavements and dragging the boyfriend around all the makeup shops!

On a side note, I'm loving how my hair has got natural ombre from the sunshine!

Australian TK Maxx equivalent...

Shopping with the boyfriend and his parents last week, we popped into a shop called Trade Secrets which I assumed to be some sort of DIY shop. Oh how wrong I was. It's a much smaller scale, neater version of my beloved TK Maxx....safe to say I was sampling a little piece of heaven.

I picked up a few bright tops and cotton dresses for summer, and was happily wandering to the till's when I spotted this little number on the end of a rack, looking very lonely and unloved. Being the kind hearted girl that I am, I bought it home with me and we've had a firm friendship ever since. I think this sheer flowered shirt is one of my new favourite pieces in my wardrobe. 

As I was going out in the evening I paired it with tights, shorts and my Dr Martens, but I also want to team it with my disco pants or just some denim shorts and flipflops for a laid back beach vibe. 

Oh TK Maxx how I was missing you, but...for now.... I've found a substitute.

Little grey dress OOTD...

 

 

Dress - Valley Girl (Australia)

Shirt - Primark

Boots - Dr Martens 

Bag - Australian market

Necklace and rings - Primark

Watch and sunglasses - ASOS

This dress was so inexpensive I picked one up in most colours. They're going to be great for summer when I'm down the beach to throw over a bikini, and I'll bring them home to layer up with tights and chunky cardigans for the UK winter.

Leopard print and Docs OOTD....

So, like I said, it's winter over here! And boy is it chilly. Not a patch on English winter I'll grant you but still not as toasty as all you girls back in England are enjoying. So it's time to dig out the boots and cardigan for a nice wintery OOTD...

Cardigan - JayJays (Australia)

Jeans and black top - Miss Selfridge

Boots - Dr Marten shop

I had my first day at work today so it's time to me to relax with my feet up and my Kindle for the rest of the evening.
