MUST HAVES/ZARA SALES

 Zara in store sale is a no go for me I try and avoid it as much as possible, it’s too much for me and guarantee I leave the shop stressed and sweaty because I can never find anything in my size.  So this time round I decided to shop online and I can proudly say there were no sweats.

 Loafers - £15.99

 Black loafers I believe are essential in every woman’s shoe collection they are a classic shoe that are never out of trend. These are my 5^th pair of black loafers and are by far my best they are more ‘dressy’ in comparison to my others which I love as they add they polish up any casual look and for £15.99 I cannot complain, I think there are a few more left online last time I checked so get searching and clicking.

Blue heeled sandals - £19.99

Zara’s basic heeled sandals are a MUST they go with anything and everything possibly one of the easiest pair of shoes to style. I already have the black pair and I love them so I obviously had to purchase the blue ones in the sale for £19.99.

The second pair I actually got brand new off eBay, I’ve been trying to find a nude tone pair of heeled sandals for a while and these are better than what I expected. The truffle pleats in the centre defiantly add elegance to the shoe which is always the right look to have. The only negative I have on the Zara heeled sandals is that the heel tips are easily worn down (that’s why you get a spare pair) If you have a pair I advise that you take them to the cobblers and get a metal heel tip, I paid £3 for mine in the cobblers in the Pavilions in Birmingham city centre and I’ve had no problems :)

 Parka, £19.99

I was in desperate need of a new parka as my last one is years old and is losing it colour so when I spotted this baby right here reduced to £19.99 from £69.99 it was obvious I was going to make it mine.  Usually parkas don’t fit upper half properly this is a XS at fits me perfectly it looks much better on than off too. Everybody needs a fresh parka in their life again so if you’re an XS your in look because the last time I checked they were still in stock.

HOW TO WEAR MONOCHROME/CASUAL ATTIRE

  Trousers, Next

Jumper, Zara

Bag, New Look

Shoes, Zara

Necklace, Aldo

So over the weekend I was in London attending a short course on personal styling in association with London school of fashion. I wanted to make a little bit more of an effort to casual attire, stylish and comfortable as I knew I was going to be on my feet a lot.

Monochrome wins again… I’ve said before if you want to create a statement look without over doing it monochrome is the look to go for. I bought this faux leather jumper from Zara in the sale a few weeks ago and I’ve been itching to style it up with these trousers I purchased for £4 in Next clearance. They’ve been hanging in my wardrobe looking depressed for the past month so it was a relief when I bought the Zara jumper. The style of trouser is almost like ‘track pants’ extremely comfortable and lightweight with a linen texture and feel.  Teaming the ‘jogger’ style trouser with the jumper/top kept the outfit casual with a street style vibe obviously a touch of class is needed with every outfit so it was a must for me to add a the classic Zara gold heeled sandal which carried my accessories off perfectly. Any monochrome outfit isn’t complete until a splash of red is added as I wanted to keep this outfit simple I decided on a red lip and nail.

MINTY FRESH

 Shirt, Tkmaxx

Jacket, River Island

Trousers, Primark

Nail Varnish, H&M

Ideal outfit for the in between weather we’ve been having lately. Lightweight materials whilst still keeping covered is a must for this climate as you’re not too hot or too cold. Keep the colour attire mellow not too bright and not too dark, I went for the turquoise pallet as it gives off a refreshing feeling. I have styled the outfit with chandelier drop earrings and a dressy flat to give the overall look a classy feel.

MONOCHROME/OOTN

 

Dress, Mango

Shoes, United Nude

Bag, New Look

OOTN – Town with the girls

I’ve been looking for a black and white block dress since I purchased this bag last month; I got this dress from Mango whilst I was in Italy, reduced to 12.99. I decided monochrome attire this evening as I find it effortlessly beautiful. By teaming the dress with a pin heel, patent red shoe along with a matching lipstick brings the outfit to life. The shoes in the picture look orange but I assure you they are red.
