Dot-To-Dot

Shirt, bag& leggings: Miss Selfridge  Shorts: Oasis  Boots: Topshop


Firstly, apologies for the bad (and slightly bizarre) lighting in these pictures, after what seemed like a lifetime of brightness/ contrast adjusting I had to accept this was the best they were going to get. Winter and photo taking definitely aren't compatible, so there's yet another reason to look forward to summer. (As if there weren't enough already!)

Anyway, polka dots have taken over from Breton stripes as my print of the moment, which you can probably tell from my choice of blog background. This shirt has quickly become my go-to piece, it's both comfortable AND stylish, which is a winning combination in my opinion. I've teamed it with my green Miss Selfridge satchel on this occasion, I love using colourful accessories to brighten up an outfit and this bag ticks all the right boxes.

Polka dots are still on trend, much to my delight, and they come in all colours and sizes, so even if you're a bit print shy, there's bound to be a piece out there that appeals to you. I've included a selection of my favourite dots and spots available on the Great British high street right now, enjoy!

Cold As Ice

Jumper: Miss Selfridge   Vest (Underneath): Topshop   Jeans: Warehouse   Boots: River Island


This is a bit of belated outfit post since I took it last Saturday, but thanks to an unexpectedly busy week it's going to have to be better late than never.
I'd never tried this combination before, but I quite like the dark green jeans and the yellowy/ orange jumper combination. I think it gave a very autumnal feel to what has to have been the coldest winter day I've experienced in a while. I've been in love with this jumper since I bought it, I really like the colour and it's still nice and cosy despite being slightly cropped. Wearing jumpers is probably the obly thing I enjoy about winter.

I'm hoping to post regularly next week, so keep your eyes well and truly peeled!

Electric Blue

Skirt: Miss Selfridge  Jacket: Primark  Vest: H&M  Boots: River Island


I know, I'm not the most natural of posers, but lets not dwell on that too much! I've always enjoyed reading other people's 'what I wore today' style posts,so I thought I'd give it a bash myself.
I bought this lovely blue midi skirt with some money I was lucky enough to get for Christmas. I've had my eye on it for quite some time and it definitely fits in with my 'getting out of my comfort zone' aim as I really don't own anything else like it. To say that I've got a lot of love for it is an understatement. It's a gorgeous electric blue colour and the material hangs beautifully. Plus it's oh-so versatile, I can wear it now with my trusty leather jacket and chelsea boots, but I'm really looking forward to wearing it in the summer with some sandals and a vest for a really relaxed vibe. This skirt will be a very hard-working addition to my wardrobe and it has me longing for the summer months even more than I did before (and that was a lot, by the way).
