Outfit Post // Abstract Attitudes

Hi everyone! You may have noticed a huge absence on my blog recently for which I can only apologise- so sorry about the massive blogging break! I've just started two new jobs, and have been working 6, sometimes 7 days a week, making finding the time/energy to take pictures a little bit more difficult than usual. However I've definitely settled in to a routine now, so the blog will now be back up and running- yay!


Coat*//M&S     Tee//Internacionale     Jeans//Primark     Loafers//Primark     Necklace//Primark     Bag//Accessorize  






I've been on a bit of a winning break recently, and a couple of weeks ago I was lucky enough to win this unbelievably gorgeous coat* courtesy of amazing blogger Emma Hill of EJStyle and Marks & Spencer's! I was one of three lucky winners chosen via Instagram, and honestly couldn't believe my luck! Anyway, the coat was a size medium, which fits slightly over-sized, but I think that adds to the whole style of the coat and makes it look even more flattering (and feel even more comfy) on. 
The abstract print also makes this a real statement piece, meaning it's perfect for both casual and dressy looks, I honestly can't describe how much I love this coat, plus it's definitely left me feeling inspired for Autumn/Winter shopping. As an added bonus, it's just gone into the M&S sale too, so you can now buy it here for a ridiculous £36!!! 

I didn't want the bold aztec print to clash with my outfit when styling, so went for casual staple pieces like my Primark loafers and boyfriend jeans, and a cute little cropped tee I bought from Internacionale a few years ago. I think they give my look a boho feel, and are all super comfy, making this look my go-to choice for long days out (mainly shopping) when I want to look stylish but can walk around all day without having to worry. The gorgeous necklace I'm wearing is also a recent Primark find, they are just so good for jewellery and accessories that aren't ridiculously overpriced (this necklace broke the bank at around £4 I think). My accessorize bag that you may have seen in some earlier posts was also a perfect addition to this outfit, it may be looking a little worn now, well I have used it everyday since Christmas, but it seems to just go with anything, and is the perfect size to fit all my random bits and bobs that I carry around when I leave the house. Finally I added a trusty red lip to match the jewel in my necklace, and the look was complete! 

Thank you to Emma Hill and Marks & Spencers! What do you think to statement coats like this? Are you loving them for Autumn/Winter like me...?x
