Culottes X Nike

Sweatshirt - H&M | Culottes - ASOS | Trainers - Nike 

Culottes were one of the big trends this summer and lucky they're still going strong now and featured in many catwalks at London Fashion Week! Hurray for culottes! Great for those when I'm bored of living in skinny jeans, and boy do I live in my skinny jeans and also great at hiding food babies/days you didn't go to the gym/want to pretend you're still in your massive PJ's. What more could a girl want.

These bad boys are from ASOS (obviously, it's me) which I got for a steal in the summer sale. Teamed with a slogan sweatshirt and my Nikes, this is a perfect chilled outfit which is both comfy but also looks like I made an effort. I love the combo of grey and navy, they work really well together and the added jazziness of the sequins adds a bit of glitz to a quite muted outfit.

Will you be wearing your culottes way into winter?

It's also my birthday tomorrow, feel free to send me ASOS vouchers in the mail guys xxx

Nike Roshe Run | Zara Trainers | Nike Revolution

The biggest trend of the moment is trainers. Sporty trainers to be exact. Trainers are being paired with everything from jeans to dresses to culottes and they look amazing. The comfiest option of footwear, how could I ever resist heavily investing in 3 pairs of the biggest trend to hit the catwalk's since mom jeans. I'm a sporty person anyway, so they're an investment more than anything.

I chose a pair of Nike Roshe Runs, the shoe everyone and their cat seems to own, an all white pair of trainers from Zara as I can't afford a pair of Nikes in all white and my new running/everyday wear shoes in the Nike Revolutions. Luckily for me, I have teeny feet so still fit in junior sizes benefiting my bank account greatly. 

If you haven't jumped into the trainer trend WHY HAVEN'T YOU 

This is certainly a trend to stick around.

Love Me Hate Me

Fedora - New Look | White Shirt - H&M | Blazer - H&M | Jeans - ASOS | Clutch - Zara | Trainers - JD Sports 

I basically live in white shirts nowadays so I thought I'd start doing a series of pieces on how I like to style them up, for casual and smart.

This look is one that would work during the day, perhaps to go shopping with friends or for travelling but could be easily changed up and made more appropriate for evening attire with a pair of barely there heels and a bit of lipstick. 

I recently bought this blazer during H&M's 25% promotion (check it out online and in store if you haven't yet!) as I've never owned a really smart jacket that would work with most things and can easily make a pair of scruffy jeans look grown up!

I toned down the smartness of this look with the addition of the Nike's and then added a dash of colour with this bright clutch from Zara, as I do love a good slogan!
