New YouTube Video || How I style: Leather Trousers

My god, I haven't posted for absolutely ages!!!

I've started a new job and had lots of shit happen (not relating to my job) but all sorted now and I managed to film this video today, which you can check out here.

I've been looking for a new pair of leather-look skinny jeans/trousers for a while now.  I have some from River Island which I did love but I hate how they go baggy around the knee!  Well, bring on the Boohoo ones!  They are the best pair I think I've ever owned.  They're so comfortable, they don't make that creaky noise when you walk, I just love them.  And they're high waisted.  Only problem with them is that the zip doesn't seem to like to stay up!!!  So I may get the zip changed.

All links to everything I'm wearing can be found on my youtube channel.  Apologies for the quality of these images, they're screen shots.

Anyway, hope you're having a good week.  I'm hoping to get an Office/Back to Work Lookbook up on my YouTube Channel by the weekend as well :-)

New YouTube Video: Fashion Haul - Zara, Topshop, River Island, H&M, Primark and more

I meant to post this the other day but I forgot!  I've been shopping AGAIN so I just thought I'd share with you what I got.  I've also put in clips of me wearing each item.  You can check out the video here.

Most of the things I've bought have been from the sale.  Oh and in case you do watch the video and wonder if I got the job I mentioned, I did!  I start in mid-August so some fab news for me!

Have a good weekend! x

Christening Outfit of the Day: Zara, Topshop, Zara!

Today, I went to my nephew's Christening

This is what I started out wearing.  The dress is from Zara and I got it in their sale for just £12.99.  I couldn't believe how cheap it was (I did a haul recently and it features on that, which you can check out here).  It has a zip across the middle so you can unzip it to make it look a bit more like a two piece.  

It was quite really warm today, overcast but still hot!  So I deliberately took another outfit for if I did get too hot, which I did!  My god, I was so hot in the service.  The Christening was part of the Sunday morning church service so we were there for about 90 minutes.  Afterwards, we headed to a local pub for the party and I switched into this.

Zara Shorts - £9.99 (sale)

Topshop Top - £38.00

New Look Shoes - Now £12.00!

I got quite a few compliments on this second outfit.  I love it.  And it is something you could wear casual as well if you just changed the shoes xx

Tuesday's Outfit of the Day: Topshop, Missguided & New Look #OOTD #WIWT

Today, I had to get ready in a mega rush - which is why I'm having a bit of a bad hair day with random bits sticking up (which you can see in one of the pics - I think).  But I had to rush my son down to the doctors today as he was having really bad breathing problems, had me up during the night and I really didn't sleep too well worrying about him!  Anyway, he's fine but just has a throat infection. It's probably the third time I've been to the doctors in the past month, even the doctor told me that they'd give me my own seat!  But I don't mind because that doctor is so good looking!  Anyway, enough about my crush on my doctor.  So I had to get to the doctors before 10am so I just threw this outfit on and I have to say, I really love it!

Missguided Top (old)

Topshop Skirt

New Look Sandals

I am absolutely in love with this Topshop skirt.  It fits perfectly (apart from it does ride up and twist round a bit) and is amazing quality.  I was surprised at the price of this.  It was only about £34 which I think is such great value for such a beautiful skirt - I got mine from their petite range.  I am also loving these shoes from New Look.  Another bargain.  Only £9.99 and they are ridiculously comfortable.  I may have to invest in some other colours.  The top is from Missguided.  Not sure if they still do it but it's such a great piece.  It's a real summer basic.  

I'm also working on another lookbook this week for my YouTube Channel.  I'm just trying to do a week in outfits so everything I wear this week should be going on to that video which I hope to have up by Sunday.

So I've had a bit of a hectic morning, doctors, chemist, shopping, now home and hoping my boys will sleep the afternoon away so I can enjoy the sunshine! x

Sunday's Spring/Summer Outfit of the Day: Topshop Scarf Print Shorts #OOTD #WIWT #Topshop

I have been after these shorts for ages but just can never get them in my size!  I ordered them from the Topshop website which went through, only to get an email the next day to tell me that the order had been cancelled as they didn't have that size in stock!  So I looked in the Topshop at Bluewater and Lakeside with no luck.  The annoying thing was I had tried on my size in the Bluewater Topshop but my son was playing up so I didn't buy them.  I finally found them 130 miles away in Great Yarmouth on my little trip!

Topshop Shorts

H&M Shirt

Primark Sandals

Topshop Necklace

I'm so glad that I finally managed to get these shorts.  They are perfect for dressing up or dressing down.  I love them!

Another sunny day here.  Yay!  So I'm once again going to enjoy the sun (after we got to B&Q!).  Hope you are all having a good Bank Holiday Weekend x

Sunday's Outfit of the Day: Black Stripes, White Stripes

Ooops having posted for a while again!  I've just had a mega busy week, plus more sleepless nights with my youngest starting to teeth and wake me up every hour!

Zara Scarf - £20.00

H&M Top - £9.99

Primark White Jeans - £10.00

Topshop Georgy Geek Shoes - £32.00

Primark Necklace - £3.00

I can't find the scarf on the Zara website but I only got it on Friday so it's still in their stores.  I've been after a Zara scarf for ages and absolutely love this one.  It's so thick so will keep me nice and warm but is still fine for the warmer weather (and being in the UK, we rarely get boiling hot days it seems!).  The shoes I also love but they hurt like hell and I'm not sure they'll ever break in!  They're in a really stiff patent and really hurt my ankles but, hey, us women bear pain for the things we love!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend and have a good week.  I'm going away for a few days this week with my little family.  Only in the UK and the weather isn't great but a break is a break, and a much needed one at that! 

Oh quickly to add, I've also done another video on my YouTube Channel which you can check out  below.  It was a requested video, to style a playsuit over jeggings/skinny jeans.  This isn't something I've ever worn before and not sure I would wear it.  I've never been a massive fan of leggings as it is and I've never really been one to wear them under a dress.  But I gave it a go and hope you like (if you watch it of course!) x

Wednesday's Outfit of the Day: Checks & Stripe #OOTD #PatternClash #WIWT #OOTD

Today's outfit is a simple one for running around in.  I had to take my cats for their boosters at the vets this morning, then I had to pick my niece up from school as she still wasn't feeling well, then I had to rush back in time for a doctor's appointment!  So manic morning but I'm looking forward to a quiet afternoon.

Monday's Outfit of the Day: Checks & Leopard #OOTD #WIWT #Zara #RiverIsland #patternclash

Hey everyone, hope you are all having a lovely day.  I had to rush my son to the doctors this morning because he woke up covered in a horrible red rash!  Got him to the doctors and it's just a viral rash from where he's been unwell.  And he ate something today!!!  It was only a piece of toast but it's the first thing he's eaten since Thursday!  Wish the sick bug had that effect on me!

So anyway... back to what my blog is about... fashion!  This is today's outfit and I am in LOVE with it!
