Now that my boyfriend lives in London, it means I get a chance to explore fun new locations to shoot outfits - unfortunately with it being winter it starts getting dull at 2pm, so despite the fact I lugged three fabulous outfits in my suitcase this weekend, I didn't get the chance to shoot even one of them, slightly soul-destroying.  Luckily I have these photos from the the other day that I can post instead!  

If you know anything about my style, you'll probably be able to tell that I don't believe in having a 'summer/winter' wardrobe - part of the fun of styling outfits is the challenge of how to make items weather appropriate, why shouldn't I be able to wear my pretty new playsuit when it's cold? I'm no layering queen, but I was pretty proud when I slung on my fishnet top and it looked half-decent, plus with my fave OML jacket I was super toasty for the harsh streets of London!  What do you do to winter-ify summer pieces?

Hello October!  I'm totally embracing autumn this year - I even had my first pumpkin spice latte the other day (so not worth the hype, just saying) and I love the fall colours in these photos.  This midi cardigan is my new fave thing - perfect for layering and I can button it up all the way down if it gets cold!  It's part of the Nineties Normal trend on ASOS so I thought I'd keep it simple with hints at 90s grunge, with the choker, slouchy tee & chunky boots.  This has definitely made it into one of my favourite outfits this season - what's your autumn wardrobe must have?

Back again with another sporadic post when I should be packing up the last of my stuff. My room is all blank and sad looking and I'm really not looking forward to leaving this house - I've lived here for the best part of 12 years and have so many memories here! 

These photos were actually taken round the side of a skanky chinese restaurant while scouting for outfit locations, I thought the mint went perfectly! I did get very odd stares from the chefs on their fag breaks but I've learnt to not care about what people think with the amount of outfit photos I take in public!

I meant to post this yesterday after my first day at my Company internship but er.. Primark happened.. haul to come soon!  So far my internship's going great, I'm pretty exhausted as I'm very busy all day but time goes really quickly, and because it's central I have Oxford Circus on my doorstep, not good for my bank balance!
This was just a quick throw-on outfit, nothing too fancy.  This black rucksack is the third addition to my Grafea collection and definitely my favourite, black goes with everything and the houndstooth ponyskin pocket is just gorgeous.  This crop top is so unique, not seen an open back like it before and because I'm not blessed in the breasty department I'm more drawn to back detail!

For all of you that don't own a pair of pilot shades; I seriously recommend them - they make you look and feel at least three times cooler when added to an outfit, and in this ensemble I felt like I could totally walk out and speed off on a Harley.  I've never tried the whole leathery leggings thing but these biker ones are seriously rad and so versatile, definitely going to have fun styling them up in different ways!

I have literally been living in this top recently - it just goes with everything!  Hopefully you can't tell I was a little hungover when these photos were taken, this is my general feeling rubbish uniform; leggings, a slouchy top and dark sunglasses - nobody will know how much you drank last night.  Not too happy with these photos because they were taken at a train station with people watching and I felt awkward but hope you like them anyway!
