Outfit Of The Day

Hi guys
This is just a quick post as I am currently out shopping in the post Christmas sales with my lovely friend who needs to find a dress for a party we have in the new year.
I must've been sat in the Topshop changing rooms for well over half an hour now so I thought I'd do s quick outfit of the day.
I threw my outfit together in a huge rush as usual this morning but I'm fairly happy with the way it all goes together! This is the outfit in full:



Boots - Next - £65
Socks - Accessorize - £8
Leggings - H&M - £7.99
Jumper - Urban Outfitters - £40
Bag - Zara - £30
Coat - Asos - £80


This is my Zara bag - I love the mustard yellow colour of it, it really brightens up my outfits as I find I tend to usually wear dull and muted colours. 

I really liked the pattern on the top of this Urban Outfitters jumper and the way the blue, white and red colour go together. 

These are my socks with my boots. I often wear some big, chunky knit socks with these boots as it breaks up the black of the boots and leggings together. 
These boots were from Next. What I love about them is that they are made to look worn, as showed by the photo. I got them recently and have only worn them about 3 times yet they look nice and worn in which is the way I like my boots!

I hope you enjoyed this short post for a change and let me know if you would like more outfit of the day posts?

Jewellery Favourites

Hello.
I was slightly struggling to think of a post for today as I have done a lot of reviews and tags lately so I thought to what I've done recently that I could tell you about. As I'm on study leave which is really rather boring, I've been tidying and re organising my room in the run up to Christmas and one thing I did yesterday was go through my jewellery box and I thought I'd share a few of my favourite pieces that I have.

Please bear in mind I've had a lot of these for a long while/ they've been presents so I don't know where a lot of them are from and as well as that, I do shop in high street stores a lot so these won't be expensive and fancy things! Enjoy!
What I love most about this ring is the gorgeous duck egg blue colour.
This ring is from Accessorize. Neon
is really in this season so this
ring is really on trend!

I love the colours in this statement
necklace from Next. It goes really
well with a plain dress/top.
Necklace from Urban Outfitters.

This is another neon necklace. This
one is from Boden so it was a little
pricey but as soon as I saw it I knew
I had to have it.
This ring was a present from some
lovely family friends - they
know me too well! 


Ring from Accessorize.



Gold leaf detailing on the side of the ring 












This was part of my Christmas present from one of my
best friends. (S for my name). Even though it is really
simple, I wear it loads! 

This was supposed to be a joke
present because everyone knows how
much my Mum hates pineapples
so I was given this to scare her off
but I have grown to really love it!

I love the detail on the chain. From Accessorize. 


A present from my best friend in the whole world.
From Accessorize. 

This was given to me by my French Exchange partner
a few years ago. In the area she is from, everyone has these
with angels on to protect them.

Two friendship bracelets.
 Left - Accessorize. Right - White Stuff

More friendship bracelets. The left one is from
 Accessorize and the right one is a traditional Greek christening 

bracelet from when I went to my Greek friend's 
christening on the island of Andros.

These two were part of a set from Accesorize -
I love the blue and gold colours together.

These two are similar to the other blue bracelets
but these are silver and blue which I also love.

I love the simplicity of this tag necklace.

This is a necklace I got from a shop in a little Scottish
village. It doesn't seem to go with many of my clothes
so I don't often wear it but I love having it out on
display as it is so pretty!

These two were also from the same little shop in a tiny
Scottish village I can't remember! They are both quite
sophisticated and I got the heart engraved with my name
which is quite handy as now no-one will want to
steal it!
























Thank you if you read all the way down to the bottom - I am aware it was a very long post! If you were wondering the camera I used to photograph the jewellery is my CanonG12. Sorry they're quite bad photos, I couldn't be bothered to get my nikon and lighting out and set up which is terrible I know but I'm sure you won't mind!
