OUTFIT POST // IT'S ALL ABOUT THE BOY

After a lovely day of some (almost) retail therapy in Meadowhall, I couldn't wait to get my new purchases on and write this outfit post! I say almost because I arrived at my favourite shopping centre, only to realise that I don't get paid until this afternoon, so I wasn't quite able to have the splurge I was hoping for, but I guess that's not a bad thing! 
After drooling over a super pretty skort in Miss Selfridge, and then a gorgeous suede tee in Zara, I was feeling major spending withdrawal by the time I got to Primark, but when I saw this gorgeous grey crop jumper reduced to just £5 I was so chuffed! At that price I really couldn't say no, so it went straight in my basket. It has a super pretty rolled top, and is almost (but not quite) a polo neck, this kind of style is perfect for me on those weird weather days where it's still a bit cold/windy but the sun is shining, and the slight cropped length means it will last me well into spring and summer.

I have been on the look out for the perfect pair of boyfriend jeans for a while now. The thought of having massive rips in my jeans hasn't fully  won me over, and after looking online nothing really caught my eye, but this pair (again from Primark) were perfect as the ripped detail isn't too OTT, which means I'll find them so much easier to wear. They are a little low on the waist, but I absolutely LOVE the tone and ankle-grazer style of them, and I'll be wearing these a lot as I tend to wear all the jeans I own to death. At £13 they definitely didn't break the bank, thank god for Primark! 
To finish my all Primark outfit I added this super cute spike necklace, which I've had for a few months now. I almost forgot I had it, but a sort through my jewellery box fixed that, and made me realise that 90% of my jewellery collection is from Primark! Overall this outfit cost me just over £20, and is perfect for casual daytime wear, definitely got my moneys worth!

OUTFIT POST // LADY IN LEATHER

 Hi! So this is my second outfit post, and I would absolutely love it if you let me know what you think :)

This is the outfit I wore on Christmas Day, and have worn a couple of times since. I really love it because it's the sort of outfit that works if you're going out  to a restaurant or for a night out, or if you just want to look smart-casual for a day out shopping. I got both the pleather skirt and printed shirt from Miss Selfridge in the pre-Christmas sale they had on. They were definitely bargains, and to be honest I couldn't believe someone hadn't already snapped them up!

My favourite part about the skirt is the gorgeous colour, it's a burgundy/brown, and I haven't come across another like it! I paid £14 for it, and it look so much more expensive, plus, its so easy to style up or down, I've definitely got my wear out of it. I was on the look out for a leather skirt, but some I saw were so 'out-there' I really didn't know if I would wear them, so I was so glad when I saw this. As for the shirt, the material is gorgeous, almost satin like. My only bug is that there has been some fraying at some of the stitches, but I can't really complain as just like the skirt, I've had a fair bit of wear out of it. 

The necklace I'm wearing was a christmas present from my lovely boyfriend, who ventured into Zara and picked it out. He definitely did well, as it's just my style! The half gold and half silver chain is really unique, and I have worn it with just about every shirt I own, it honestly goes with everything!

Have you got a pleather skirt? What do you think about the leather trend..?x
