Saint Laurent
I'm majorly into duster coats, so when I spotted this khaki number in the ASOS sale, I reasoned that it was fate (much to my bank accounts disgust). Here, I've popped on my trusty striped tee, ripped up jeans and new Nike Roshe slip ons, also from the ASOS sale. I love this look for a relaxed day out shopping or hanging around at the weekend and drinking multiple cups of coffee.

Dungarees
Dungarees, a style revolution I never thought would do the rounds again. Yet here I am wearing my favourite pair by Another 8 London and feeling all 90's throwback. These dungarees are the best ones I've found, lightweight, well fitted and just the right amount of slouch. I teamed them with my trusty black leather mules and bardot style top by & Other Stories. I shot this look on a day that was so hot, I felt like I was on the actual sun....so excuse the shadows but I was pretty helpless.
Shop my look:
Dungarees-Another 8 London

Mules- Zara, past season Similar here

Hope you're avoiding the storms and having a lovely chilled weekend.

Casual
Firstly, sorry for my lack of posting over the weekend. I dropped my phone into a sink full of water on Friday, so my little iPhone was residing in a coffin full of rice for three days! Thankfully, by some kind of miracle, it's absolutely fine and working again.
*FYI- Putting your phone into a sealed container with dry rice for a few days,in an airing cupboard, really does save your iPhone if it has been dropped into water.
Most of my favourite outfits are clean, simple and casual. I feel most at home in slightly boy-ish notes and always love mixing in monochrome, one way or another! This is what I wore last Thursday when I went into Manchester for the Whistles A/W Press Day with Charlotte from LurchHoundLoves. It had been hammering it down all day so I tried to dress practical chic...if that is such a thing! Luckily, as soon as I hit Manchester the sun was shining.
What I wore:
Trench coat- H&M
Leather gilet- Robert Rodriguez at TK Maxx
Striped tee- Whistles
Jeans- Missguided
Trainers- Adidas
Backpack- Another 8
Lips- MAC in 'Ruby Woo'
I hope you had a lovely weekend and have got a good week ahead of you.

Stripes
Stripes have got to be my favourite 'wear anywhere' trend. Given half the chance, I'd wear something oversized and nautical everyday. Here I'm wearing a somewhat girly pinstripe pencil skirt that's borderline too tight for my liking....but I can deal with it. I'm still obsessing over my Ark platforms in this post, I've always thought a great pair of shoes can make an outfit, and I still stand by that! This is definitely a trait I picked up form my fabulously stylish mum who owns so many shoes, she has to hide them from my dad.
*Shop the look
Sunglasses-Le Specs
Top-COS
Skirt- H&M in store only
Shoes-ARK Clothing
Rings-Fera Jewellery & Monica Vinader
Hope you all had a fabulous Bank Holiday. A 4 day week is such a relief!
Thank you so much for stopping by to read.

Nautical
Finally, a warm day in April! I took the opportunity of an extra hours daylight after work to shoot some of my newest transitional pieces. I got this COS top from the Birmingham store last week, it was a gift from my second mama, my best friend's mama. It epitomises my style completely and truthfully, if I could get away with buying enough of these to wear one everyday, I so would. I popped into Primark for an umbrella and came out with some sunglasses, for £1. You just can't argue with that! So I'm happy to welcome some more mirrored sunnies to my ever growing collection. My gorgeous grey noted clutch is from the lovely girls at Marc b, little enough for a subtle Summer clutch. Lastly, my shoes, my wonderful white platform sandals from the class Spy Love Buy team- I'm all kinds of obsessed with these babies! My watch is from Gown & Oars and I practically live in this thing - look out for their Summer range launching next month...I'll be giving you a peep into what's to come soon.

Thank you so much for reading - it means an awful lot. I hit 300 Bloglovin' followers this weekend so I'm over the actual moon.

Tartan
To say I've grown a strong love for clashing prints would be somewhat an understatement. I love tartan, and I love stripes. Below is the result of my little clash print mind! Ark Clothing have got some class little pieces in at the moment and I'm loving their coat selection, maybe a little too much! This outfit has come to be my go-to hang out outfit. Relaxed and chic enough for daytime shopping and drinking flavoured coffee. Thankfully it was pretty sunny out today so, thank you weather!
*I'm wearing:
ARK- Maurice striped top
TwentyeightTwelve- Over washed ripped skinnies
OFFICE Shoes- Androgynous leather flats
REO Jewels- Wishbone hoops
Do you like a bit of print clash?
Have a beautiful weekend!
