That Ganni Dress: part two
It's the Ganni "Lucky" dress, and it comes in a shirt and wide leg pants. Lucky.
If you ask me, and lets assume you have for the purpose of this blog post....I'd say this kind of piece is what constitutes 'cool girl stripes'. I'm not saying I'm cool because that's daft. I'm saying, if you're going to invest in some statement stripes, Ganni is the one.
I'm wearing my super black ripped skinny jeans and my always favourite Acne Studios Adrianna trainers, and I've topped up my look with my beautiful Missoma layering necklaces.
Hopefully, you've all had the best weekend and aren't struggling with January blues! Get yourself some chocolate and have a browse through Pinterest.
Thank you so much as always, for reading. Your comments light up my day!

New in: Acne Studios
If you'd had told me you saw a pink jacket in my future, I'd have said "bullshit" and to your face as well. Yet here I am in a pink, slightly metallic dream. What I've learned is that if it's the right cut and shape for you, colour can work. I mean, I'm not going to get carried away just because I've allowed one item of colour to enter my ever bleak wardrobe...but you can see my point. The longer line fit and boyish shape has it nailed.
I kept the rest of my outfit pretty simple because the jacket deserves it's own show. My trainers are by Opening Ceremony. I picked these up in New York last year and they will always hold a firm spot on my shoe shelf.

The knotted jumper
I suppose this type of statement piece could be hard to style, so I wanted to show you a way that I like to wear it and also, point you in the direction of your very own knotted knitwear.
I found these wonderful ones for you, a mix of price point and one brand, Yoins, that I've never heard of but I love the marl grey colour of that one, and its under £25....
I hope you find your knotted front knitwear match!
Thank you so much for reading and have the best weekend.

The perfect winter coat
A few amazing points:
The cut and fit of it is so spot on
Its wool (think WARMTH!)
The colour is beautiful for the winter, instead of black. Its kind of nude with the tiniest hint of pink, making it such an easy neutral colour to wear with all of your winter layers.
*My friend has already bought it after seeing it on me and there's currently £100 off!
I'm wearing a black simple ribbed jumper dress and trainers for a simple, casual but very warm look. The dress is another piece from the This is Welcome SS16 drop, which will be available in February. In case you can't wait until then...I've popped a similar alternative down for you to shop.
Shop my look:
La Redoute x Coralie Marabelle wool coat
Ribbed high neck dress by This is Welcome, similar here at Monki
Anya Hindmarch bag
Missoma x Lucy Williams dagger necklace
adidas Stan Smith trainers

Tall girl flares
I never thought I would find a pair of flares that I'd consider wearing. I couldn't see how they would work for me and my style, but here I am feeling right at home in this incredible pair, I just had to make them work for me. This particular pair are by one of my new found favourite brands This is Welcome. They are part of the SS16 line so aren't out just yet....but hold on until February and you can get your hands on a pair! To make them feel less 70's trend and more casual, I popped on my And Other Stories slouchy shirt and tucked it in, undid a few buttons so you could see my beautiful Missoma Jewellery pieces and threw on trainers and Emma Hill's jacket...because I was frozen, soaked from the rain and had forgotten my own black jacket!
I love this look so much, I found it to be a cool, relaxed nod to the 70's trend without having to conform to a 'trend'.
You can shop my look here:
Double breasted jacket, Zara, similar Mango
Anya Hindmarch bag
Missoma initial necklace
Missoma x Lucy Williams dagger necklace

Atterley + Curls
Atterley are my absolute go-to for cool, clean cut, make BFF's with your bank brand.
They really are your cool-girl hero brand, you only need to spend all of five seconds on site to realise you would be hard pushed to find reasons not to shop with them.
I have always admired the way Atterley speak to me both as a customer and as somebody who loves easy to wear and ready to wear. Dressing well is a skill, but Atterley give you the perfect tools to pull it off with the quality and design of the pieces. I cannot put into words how much I adore this green skirt. I'm not kidding, I wore it out for the day last week and 9/10 women that passed me looked at it- I'm assuming that's positive attention.
Atterley offer 'Stylist Notes' on site which is a place for us to go and squeeze every last bit of inspiration from the stylist team, and put into practise when choosing an outfit based upon what we've loved the look of. From stylish ways to keep warm to time saving pieces to throw on everyday- they've got you covered. You've got to have a look....Stylist Notes
Anna and I had a bit of a well deserved girls afternoon last week. We both needed a catch up and a blow dry! We headed to blow bar Duck & Dry on Kings Road and the wonderful stylist gave me the biggest head of hair ever. I have never seen my hair so curly! Not to mention it lasted for around 3 days, yes, I used lots of dry shampoo in between....I cannot recommend them enough and I'll certainly be booking in again soon.
We then popped to Little House for some Mac n Cheese and more catch ups (Anna was a good girl and had an incredible smoked salmon salad) I, however, have no self control. Oh and Anna got stuck in the loo. Brilliant fun!
Shop my look:
Black belted wool cashmere coat, Atterley
Grey long sleeved jersey, 2 for £40 Atterley
Green satin midi skirt, Atterley
adidas Stan Smith
Anya Hindmarch smiley bag
Thank you so much for reading, as always, I would love to know your thoughts.
Have a great week.

Blue denim hues
Now I've had this shirt for about 12 months, it's H&M and it's one of my favourite fitting shirts. It's washed like a dream and hasn't lost any of its quality- and it was only £24.99.
Here, I'm updating it by unbuttoning the front few buttons and tying it into a loose knot. Subtle nods to detail are the very best.
The jeans I'm wearing here are also an older buy from ASOS but are still available. Cropped, wide leg and raw edges- there's nothing better when it comes to denim for me.
I threw on my Stan Smiths, as usual- and headed out to see Jess from Push PR at Dinny Hall (theres a beautiful post coming your way on this soon). Soon after I headed to meet Julia from Stylonylon so we could make our way to the m.i.h jeans press day- which was something to behold.
Mid week days off are just incredible- they can be so productive and inspiring. Especially when you're with the right people. I need to remind myself to do more of it.
You can shop my look below:
Chambray shirt similar at ASOS
Wide leg jeans at ASOS
adidas Stan Smiths
Anya Hindmarch bag
I hope you're having a great end of the week and have some wonderful weekend plans.
Thanks so much for reading.
