Candid Neon

H&M Neon Dress (dark turquoise version here) and Bag / Givenchy Necklace / Bershka Boots 

I bought this dress months ago in summer but it wasn't quite cold enough for comfortable wear. The material is quite thick so I didn't need my jacket until much later in the evening. After uni, I went for a wonder around Southbank with my boyfriend Paul and managed to squeeze in a trip to Tutti Frutti in Covent Garden which is definitely one of our favourite places to go in London. I can't believe how quickly November has passed and can't wait to get that Christmas feeling. It doesn't really happen for me until a week or two into December - usually when I do the panic rush to get everyone's presents! 

Watermarked

DIS Magazine's ad for Kenzo menswear, entitled "Watermarked", is guaranteed to put a smile on your face! Directed my Marco Roso, this brilliantly sarcastic film mocks the stock photography world full of toothy smiles, hand-holding and Abercrombie-esque models. 

Winter Hawaii

Warehouse Bag / Urban Outfitters Jacket / Zara Top / H&M Skirt / Zara Boots 

After some much needed breakfast at Cafe Rouge, we headed towards Greenwich market on the hunt for apples to accompany the mixed berries I had thawing away at home (boyfriend made crumble!). We must have come on the wrong day or time because the stalls were selling mainly clothing & jewellery, amongst other items. In particular, one jewellery stall stood out; the designer created beautiful pieces from silver cutlery, computer memory boards and old coins.

I don't usually like feminine prints but couldn't resist buying this skirt a couple months ago - the cut is amazing! In a bid to try and wear less monochrome recently, I tried these trousers on from Joy and was surprised at how much I liked them. I think i'm finally warming up the idea of having prints on my clothing, as well as my walls!

First Levi's

TOP - Forever 21 / SHORTS - Levi's (via Urban Outfitters) / SHOES - River Island / BAG - H&M

I decided to try on a bunch of high waisted denim shorts in Urban Outfitters last night for the first time - for a long while I always thought that they wouldn't fit me right. I couldn't believe my luck when I found these in the sale over at the Spitalfields store and knew it was meant to be (cringe!). Ever had that wonderful feeling?! Tonight I'm going out for my friend's birthday and she's not best pleased about turning 22 but anyone who knows her well will know that she'll soon forget about it once she's had a drink down her! :)

Tux

TUXEDO JACKET - Zara (alternative here, nice plus-size version here) / DIY LONG-LINE VEST (originally a mens t-shirt) / DISCO PANTS - American Apparel / HEELS - Zara

I will forever thank my friend NT for making me keep this tuxedo jacket. At the time of purchase I wasn't initially sure about whether I could pull it off properly or feel comfortable wearing it but now I can't seem to get it off. This outfit was one of my options for the Azealia Banks gig I went to last week but I quickly came to my senses and realised that white jacket + heels is a complete no-no for a sweaty gig. I'll show what I actually wore in my next post! :)

Metallic Skirt

SHIRT - River Island / SKIRT - New Look / BOOTS - Bershka

These boots will probably not be leaving my feet for a while - I have a habit of wearing new shoes to complete exhaustion until the next pair entrap me. Please tell me that I'm not the only one...? :)

Simply Red

SHIRT - Forever 21 / LEATHER TROUSERS - Miss Selfridge (alternative here) / BOOTS - Bershka

I've just started my first year of my new course at university and they haven't held back with the workload. It's all very exciting and slightly overwhelming at the same time but i'm secretly glad to be busy again! :) I tested my new boots on Monday and although hard to walk in at first, they are actually one of the most comfortable pair I own. During the autumn and winter months, my footwear usually consists of shoes in all kinds of boot form.
