I was reading Grazia magazine today when I came across the word.... Swinter!!!:)

That word, if it's even an official word, it's bloody perfect. It describes the current state of this past month, and also describes the struggle we are all going through trying to find an appropriate outfit to wear. "Why do you have a skirt on, but a jumper in your hand?" "It's Swinter, what do you expect!!"

Ok, enough of that great word I have come across, let's talk more of this beautiful silk mauve/blush coloured cami dress I recently got from In The Style,  I am absolutely in love with it and this colour! I am also giving my readers a special 10% off their website, just keep reading..

Straight away I wanted to pair this dress with some black boots and give it more of an edgier vibe. I love the split detail in the front and this is definitely something I would wear to a blogging event or dinner in London with friends. The dress is super flattering with its soft fabric and can also be style with some sexy heels and a leather jacket.

I am yet to do an evening look with this dress, so please keep an eye out for more!

LEVIS SAYS HI

Hi guys, I haven't done an outdoor shoot in ages, so here is my latest blog post outside. I have on all white, featuring my latest DIY ripped white jeans from Primark for just £10. Please hunt through my previous posts to find out just how I did them :) I also have on my new white jersey ribbed sweater from Topshop and I recently found my old vintage over sized Levi denim jacket. This is sure to stay with me most days now till I end up getting sick of it.

Also I have on my New Look sandals that I bought awhile back, everyone is asking me on my instagram where I got them from, so here is a link for you guys, as they are now back in stock...

RAGGED PRIEST / DENIM STATEMENT

CARHARTT / MADE AN APPEARANCE

Carhartt Beanie - Carhartt,

 Denim Jacket - Bite Me Clothing,

Suede Jersey Jumper - Primark,

Black Leggings - Primark,

 Black Shoes - Levis

This beanie is actually my boyfriends but its new home is my head at the moment. I have always looked on Carhartt and wanted to get my own beanie but just never got round to it. I really want a camel coloured one for the Summer.. and yes I wear beanies in the Summer time :)

I love how casual this outfit is, this is the type of outfit I would wear on a simple four hour shift in work when I just want to be comfortable. It also has a tweak of vintage which I'm slowly getting back into.

My new style crush is Louise Allen Rose, also known as Foxes. I love her music at the moment but most of all her style, I have never quite found anyone before that I will admittedly try sourcing all their clothing online and slightly stalk shall we say.. I really just love her whole persona and she gives me great fashion inspo. You should check her out!

This denim jacket was a gift off an incredibly talented person, owner and director of Bite Me Clothing. Lauren's designs are sick, and after blogging a few of her pieces last year, she kindly gave me this jacket after expressing my love for it. Who doesn't like pizza?

Lastly my rad shoes!!!! I went vintage and charity shopping with my mum last Friday and came across these amazing Levi shoes, the only pair, in my size and they cost me just £2.50. Purchase of the week!
