CAMO

Hey lovelies! I recently went for a rummage through the boxing day sales at Urban Outfitters and picked up this beautiful camouflage coat. I cannot resist a good sale! The distinctive print instantly stood out to me. I have nothing like this in my wardrobe and the coat was almost halved in price, it would have been wrong not to buy it! When out shopping on a different occasion in Norwich, I spotted these large gold hoop earrings. The size of them caught my eye. I've always wanted a pair of big hoops because I feel like they can give any outfit a bit of attitude, even if you're wearing a shirt and trousers! The earrings compliment the coat and defines the outfit as street wear. The over-sized structure of the coat juxtaposes the tight nature of the rest of the outfit. The coat also adds colour to the black tone of the outfit. These shoes bring a smart essence to the style, and the bag ensures practicality. The texture of the coat is waterproof so it is very handy on a rainy day and is very suited to the British weather!

MONOCHROME



Hey chicas! It feels like I haven't done a blog post in ages! Just been tied up with school work and uni applications. I know, not a good excuse. Hope everyone had a good Christmas and New years. Mine was great! Just been recovering from it.

I got my best friend to model in some pictures. She is usually my photographer, but she's too beautiful to hide behind the camera. She is posing in a monochrome outfit that she wore on New years. Hope you like!



The darkness of the outfit emits a slight grungy tone, especially with the velvet skirt and cape-style cardigan. Long coats and cardigans are definitely in this winter. So many people have caught the duster-coat trend. The ivory top neutralises the dominant black shades. Finally, the chunky heals add glamour to the outfit!
