Chanel-esk Sale Finds

Good Afternoon sweethearts
In my previous post I mentioned I was collecting my grades but I have not posted since so I thought I would just let you know that I collected all my feedback and was all very positive and I was so proud that my hard work paid off. It has pushed me to continue to work hard this semester! 
Anyway I thought I would share with you lovely readers today, what came in my Missguided Parcel and River Island parcel the other day and how I have gone about styling them for this particular look. So in the wonderful parcel from Missguided were these stylish and comfy trousers and this black roll neck crop top and in the River Island Parcel was this SALE tweed jacket.  











Tweed Embellished Jacket, River Island (sale)
Handbag, Coach
Black Buckle Stiletto, my mums wardrobe
Burberry Watch, Second Hand Vintage Store
 (other than right hand index finger which was my nans)

I do not often wear a full black outfit but I love this simple black look with the pop of colour with the pin stripe down the side of the trousers. The black crop top is a little textured and will go with so many things that I just had to have it. Missguided are always brilliant for the their basic tops that you can mix and match. I thought if you were going out and needed a cover up, this River Island Sale jacket would look effortlessly chic and completes the Chanel- esk look. I added my bargain fedora hat from Asos which is in their fabulous sale and is now only £16.50 (which I think for this hat is just amazing). I love gold embellishment and this hat just screamed my name, so a quick purchase was necessary. I finished the look with gold jewellery and black stilettos which are actually my mums but I love them and they look expensive even though she got them for a bargain. Lastly I picked up my Coach travel bag which I thought completed the little black outfit.  

What bargains have you found in the sale sweethearts?
Peace & Love,
Charlotte

Lazy Days Can Be Stylish Too

So today I was free from university as this week is just feedback week, where we go in on certain days to collect our grades and get the all important feedback to learn where we could of improved. I was so happy yesterday as I collected my grade for a fashion film that I made and I got a First, so as you can imagine I was over the moon. I decided I deserved to have a lazy day today and so quite literally just sat with the cats and watched TV all day (unfortunately my boyfriend, Dimi was at university as normal so we could not have a relaxing day together). However it was still lovely to have a chill day. Tomorrow I will be collecting my grade for a big project that I handed in before christmas so keep your fingers crossed for me everyone! :)

Over The Knee Socks, Matalan
Vintage Inspired Hat Box, TK Maxx

So, this knitted jumper from Zara is so unbelievably snuggly! It makes you all sleepy just wearing it haha. I actually went a size up in this jumper, so I could wear it more as a jumper dress and I thought I could always put a cute lace skirt underneath so that the lace at the bottom would show if I was worried about it being too short. I decided to add my sweet over the knee socks as I love wearing these around the house. I also added my new midi rings and also the ring furthest to the right (on my pinky) as these were all purchased in Topshop, in London last week, and I wanted to show you them as I thought they were lovely. 

I wanted to prove with this post that you can be snuggly and comfy and still look stylish, so if someone comes to do the door you are not embarrassed to answer it. 
so I hope I have achieved that with this post and here is hoping 
I have good news to tell you all about my grades tomorrow. 

Peace and Love,
Charlotte

Legally Blonde

Happy New Year Readers!
Now, I could start this post and apologise for not posting over the whole christmas period but tbh I have had a lovely break and have enjoyed every minute so the blogging just had to wait. However the posting begins again now and I cannot wait to show you all my new outfits! 
Now for those of you that have seen the film 'Legally Blonde' and hate the styling in it, I probably would look away now as the post below screams Legally Blonde! So for you lovely readers that like a bit of pink (as I do) this little post will be perfect for you :) 
Enjoy xx







Lace Scarf, River Island (old)
Bag - Originally my sisters (now mine hehe)

See why I said very 'Legally Blonde'? and maybe even a little Carrie Bradshaw as well? what do you think? I have had a wonderful Christmas and New Year but monday it is back to university where I will complete another term of projects and assignments. I am excited to find out what photo shoots I will be doing and am very excited to see my friends. 
I hope you have all had a lovely start to 2014! 

All my love as always, 
Charlotte
