Walk In The Park








O U T F I T
Shirt: Pull and Bear, Jumper: Topshop, Gilet: BB Dakota, Jeans: Guess, Shoes: Topshop, Bag: Zara, Necklace: Topshop.

Thankfully, I went for a cosier look this week which seemed appropriate for both the chilly weather and the fitting location. One of the easiest looks you could possibly wear has to be a simple pair of jeans and cosy jumper. But I really like introducing a piece like a faux fur gilet to add a little something extra to an otherwise dull outfit. Plus it is so practical, this thing will have you warm and toasty is no time.

This gilet is one I got online a long time ago, it's by BB Dakota which I don't know much of at all but if it looks cute I tend to not ask many questions. I love the colour and texture of the fur as well as the pockets to hide your hands in too. The only possible down side to this one is the collar, usually I would recommend only buying collar-less gilet's. Just because the fur on fur can sometimes be a little much and it means you can only really wear your hair up, otherwise I just look like a lion coming at you.

This jumper is from Topshop, it is actually a maternity jumper which may sound weird but it was on sale and has an adorable black bow at the back of the collar so I went for it. It's so versatile and I get a lot of wear out of it, although it does shed a strange amount of wool. For such a seemingly low-maintenance jumper I have to put it on right before I leave the house or everything I come in contact with will be destroyed. Annoying. 
My necklace and shoes are also Topshop, I have to say, these shoes are by far my most worn pair and a definite best buy for my wardrobe, if I could buy them again tomorrow, I would. They literally go with everything and are so flattering and comfy, a very rare and magical find.

My jeans are Guess which I picked up in Miami. They are my first 'proper' pair of jeans, which basically means expensive, and I do love them although I'm still undecided if they are really all that much better than my regular High Street buys. I Guess time will tell, pun intended, I apologize. 

My shirt is Pull and Bear and I strongly recommend anyone who does not already own a simple white shirt to get on it, the possibilities really are endless. 
My bag is of course my adored Zara find, still loving it, definitely going to wear this one to death.

Thanks again for reading,

Feeling Blue








O U T F I T
Top: Pull and Bear, Blazer: H+M, Jeans: Topshop, Shoes: Zara, Bag: Zara. 

I am obsessed with my new Zara bag, I bought it while in Miami but you can get it online as well, although I think it's sold out right now. It's a good price and can hold everything and go with anything, I love how sleek and chic it is although it can get a little annoying when you're in a hurry and constantly messing with the big flap, but I'll put up with it for this beauty.

This blazer is also a Miami purchase, I love the cobalt blue colour, and it's the perfect statement piece to spice up any outfit that would otherwise probably be very dull.


The stripped peplum top is Pull and Bear, it's a jersey material and so comfy, although it is sleeveless so, as you can probably tell, I was once again pretty freezing. I swear my next blog will involve more layers.


My jeans are Topshop, they are the Leigh style, my personal favourite, because they're just so soft and comfortable. I would say 80 per cent of my jeans are either very dark or black, it's just so much more slimming I couldn't imagine going for a light wash now.


Once again, thanks so much for reading,

Megan.

Just Purchased

I've decided to do a short 'Just Purchased' blog every now and then, I saw it on another blog and I think it's a fun way to mix up my usual posts and also show what I'm loving at the moment.

I just convinced my boyfriend to buy me this baby from Topshop for Christmas, I adore the wine colour and there is something just so glamorous about feathers. I cannot wait to get my hands on it and wear it all over the Christmas and New Year period, I'm sure I'll fit it into a blog too. They have just sold out but keep checking the Topshop website if you're interested. 

Thanks for reading,
