chunky knits & boots

I am finally getting ready for winter, yes the summer days look like they are well and truly behind us, this being said we had an amazingly sunny and bright weekend. However, my brain has switched into winter mode; turtlenecks, chunky knits, hats and boots, loads of boots. Here are a few of my latest finds, and some older ones that only come out once a year.

Zara black jumper/dress Villa (from Asos) pink/beige knit turtleneck jumper (A/W 2010) Zara cream knit (A/W 2010) River Island two toned turtleneck knit (A/W 2011)

a total black look

//WEARING// Zara jumper dress and suede/leather boots H&M oversized structured jacket and cuff NEXT bag Swatch watch Uterque sunglasses

I really love this outfit, it has combines all of my favourite items- an oversized tailored jacket, jumper dress and a great pair of heels. This jumper dress is the perfect transitional piece, also great for pairing with a pair of skinny jeans or to through over a cute skirt or dress, or simply worn as a dress like here. I had my eye on these perfect boots for a while, I like that they are more pointy than what I would usually go for and the fact that they are half suede, half patent leather. I will show you tomorrow the same outfit worn in a more casual way, the perfect day to night outfit.

silver cardigans & white shirts

Two small trend posts in one this time. Here are two really lovely and much wanted items from two brands that will never cesse to impresse me. The first is this amazing, and vintage looking silver jacket from the trend collection over at H&M. I would wear it exactly like Charlotte and Yara, paired with black jeans and a white tee. The second item, is the very sought after, crisp white shirt with the gold collar detailing. I am very that I will be taking a small trip to Antwerp on Saturday so hopefully I will find some of the stuff I have been wanting for a while then.

Silver brogues

//WEARING// YesStyle tee H&M black blazer and cuff Levi's jeans NEXT bag Primak silver brogues Swatch watch

I brought these amazing silver brogues about two years ago from Primak for a whooping 5 pounds, a real bargain!  To be honest, I never wear them that much but I never planned on throwing them away. I decided to pull them out of their box as I have been seeing silver brogues popping all around the place in the last couple of weeks. If you are looking for some silver brogues may I suggest, Asos, Topshop and Zara.
