UNPIN YOUR BUTTERFLIES // STATUS ANXIETY BAG GIVEAWAY

  


FEDORA // H&M (SIMILAR)
NECKLACE* // SHANTIQUE DESIGNS
MAXI DRESS* // MISSGUIDED
TOP* // MISSGUIDED
BELT // VINTAGE
SHORTS* // NEW LOOK
BAG* // STATUS ANXIETY
BOOTS* // ARK

I got very lucky with these photos - it had been raining all day and by the time we got round to shooting the photos it was starting to get dark, but somehow they managed to turn out well!  Shooting on top of car parks is now my favourite thing as you can do what you like and not care because there's no one around, and I just think the background looks rad!  I had so much fun swishing around in this maxi from Missguided, it's actually a dress but I prefer wearing it as a kimono to dress it down a little (and because there's a ton of buttons and I'm lazy).  

For me, this look is the perfect balance between grunge and boho, and I definitely want to go for this kind of vibe more often - since starting work in an office it's so easy to slip into lazy dressing, ie. jeans & a t-shirt every day and I don't want to get myself into a style rut!  What do you guys do to spice up everyday outfits?

Anyway, onto the giveaway!  The lovely people over at Status Anxiety have very kindly let me give away one of their gorgeous bags.  Mine is such high quality and I'm just in love with it - the leather is buttery soft, the fur is so silky and it's the perfect size - if you'd like to get your hands on one, just follow the steps below!

- Giveaway is for one Status Anxiety bag in the Maud, Molly or Norma style.
- Lasts for 1 week (ends 10/11/14)
- Open to readers worldwide

CARDIGAN* // ASOS
TEE* // STYLEMOI
SHORTS* // NEW LOOK
BOOTS* // MISSGUIDED
LIPS // MAC BOYFRIEND STEALER

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?

I'm a little late blogging on this one, but am slowly getting more up to date with catch up blogging so please bear with while I sort everything out!  I popped into the New Look AW14 event last month and was greeted with a plethora of sequins mixed with luxe fur and a ton of glitzy accessories - extremely impressed with the new collection.  I spent my time clutching a Midori cocktail and catching up with some blogger buddies, lusting over the gorgeous pieces - big thanks to New Look for organising and (I can't believe I'm saying this) bring on autumn!

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!

I meant to upload this last week but due to being in Bournemouth I didn't have a spare couple of hours to edit, plus I thought I deserved a bit of a break.  Hope you like the video and see you with a post tomorrow!  Remember to click read more for item links!

UGH, AS IF!

      
GLASSES* // ZERO UV
COAT* // SHEINSIDE
NECKLACE* // CHELSEA DOLL
TOP* // HERO & CAPE
JEANS* // NEW LOOK
SHOES* // IRON FIST

Sorry for the sparse posts this week but I'm hoping to have posts back daily as of today!  I meant to post a haul on Tuesday but haven't had the time to sit down and get into it as it takes forever and as I mentioned I'm away in Bournemouth.  I'm actually so happy with how these photos turned out - they were taken in front of the garage doors at my Dads house and I'll definitely need to use that backdrop again!
I'm wearing my new jeans from New Look that are ridiculously comfortable and a perfect dupe for the American Apparel easy jeans, but a snip of the price at just £20!  I've also been wearing this Hero & Cape tee non-stop as it's so perfectly slouchy, it goes with everything and of course it's got one of my all time favourite movie quotes on it!
