Flarin' Hell

Denim Shirt - Primark | Flared Jeans - ASOS | Heeled Boots - New Look 

So I did it. I joined the hordes of bloggers wearing flares this season and oh my god does it feel good! As a 5'2 gal, anything that lengthens my legs and makes them look skinny to boot ticks every box for me. I'm loving teaming together different denims too, so I mix and matched blue and black denim with the jeans and the shirt. I love the old half tuck aswell, making the whole look a bit more casual and interesting than usual. 

My friends and boyfriend definitely hate these jeans, but I'm not sending them no chance. 

What do you think of the flare craze, let me know!

Sports Casual

Ribbed Jumper - ASOS | Jeans - ASOS | Sunglasses - ASOS | Pumas - Schuh

I'm currently working with UNiDAYS and their blog team to do a few posts on how to wear jeans without feeling boring, so here is my first instalment!

The key thing about dressing for university, is being comfy. Sometimes I can be on campus from 9am to 9pm and there's nothing worse than being cold/uncomfortable/unhappy in what you're wearing. That is why jeans really are your best friends at university. In today's outfit, I combined them with a ribbed jumper with a cheeky side spilt to make things a bit different and my new favourite footwear, my Pumas. I really like the combination of sports and classic cut items, I think it looks really presentable and well thought out.

My jeans are ASOS Whitby's, which are my favourite ASOS jeans and you can use that UNiDays discount on too...

So there is instalment number 1, look out for the next piece in the new few days!

Cape Away

Cape Blazer - Lavish Alice via ASOS | Jumper - Charity Shop | Jeans - New Look | Oversized Clutch- ASOS | Oversized Floppy Hat - New Look

I am now Zorro. Hello blogging world, my name is Zorro. Today's outfit features my new favourite item of clothing, my Lavish Alice cape blazer. Seen on two of my favourite bloggers, it was constantly sold out (currently in stock!!) but me and my eagle eyed ASOS OCD-ness caught it as available in my size and how can I say no, when fate gives itself to me like that? It's such a perfect piece, so easy to wear and looks so much more relaxed than a normal blazer. 

As I was in at 9am for class today, I had to think practically so teamed my cape blazer with a jumper and jeans and then to add an Elena edge to what could be a boring outfit, I popped my oversized floppy hat on which probably didn't help with the Zorro references.

In other news, my new knee high boots arrived today and I'm super scared/excited to try them out, just not sure if I can pull them off but we shall see!

Peachy Keen

Peach V Neck Tee - ASOS | Jeans - ASOS | Blazer - H&M | Plimsolls - ASOS | Bag - ASOS

Now my sister has gone to university, I'm without a photographer until I myself go back to university so sorry guys, you're have to deal with the back of my house and my pathetic tripod skills. Forgive me, it won't be for long!

This is what I wore when I went to a gig on Thursday in Manchester to watch Azealia Banks, yes I know what is wrong with me but I was helping out a friend and it was actually one of the best gigs I've been too, totes recommend to anyone!

I do love me some jeans, and I basically live in either these or my blue ripped up ones. This is a really casual outfit for me, but as concerts get so hot and sweaty, I didn't want to overcomplicate things. I love this v neck tee, you may have seen it featured in my latest haul post, it's such a lovely neutral colour and goes really well with my constantly lighter hair! 

I picked up this blazer from H&M for a bargain £15, I love wearing it on shoulders as a cape, it adds just a little bit of a classic cut to a very chilled outfit.

I'm also really into massively oversized clutches and as I wait for my latest purchase from ASOS to be delivered, I decided to use my brain and reverted the design of this tote bag, into a clutch but folding over the bag. Sometimes I surprise myself!

Yet again, sorry for the poor shoot location, it won't be for long!

Where's Wally (Blue & White Version)

Striped Oversized Tee - ASOS | Orange Jacket - H&M | Snakeprint Boots - ASOS | Sunglasses - Primark

I keep realising I keep posting outfits that have pieces in them you can no longer get *hidden monkey emoji face* sorry guys! I have loads of new clothes, as you'll know from my ill gotten gains snaps on Instagram but I'm waiting for Yodel to deliver my camera tripod!

But look guys, an outfit with lots of colour! This is possibly the brightest outfit I have ever/will ever wear and I love it! Sometimes its nice to step away from the all black vibes and this striped dress/orange jacket combo is the perfect cure for it. I adore this dress, which is actually a tee sized up A LOT but I love stripes in any form. I spied this jacket in the H&M Sale online and even though I detest ordering from H&M online, I gave them another chance (stupidly long delivery... again) but the jacket is beyond words, embroidered all over, in such a beautifully rich orange which I never thought I'd say, but it goes quite well with blonde hair! Stranger things have happened.  It's also my new favourite thing to tie anything I get my hands on round my waist, because what's more sensible than not wearing your jacket? & I'm queen of not being sensible mainly when choosing to wear inappropriate shoes which results in me having to live in my sliders... #firstworldproblems

Shredded Denim X White Tee

V Neck Tee - Primark | Shredded Jeans - ASOS | Snakeprint Boots - ASOS | Backpack - H&M | Sunglasses- ASOS

Sometimes, there's nothing better than just chilling out in a pair of battered jeans and a white tee. Sometimes fashion over does things, over thinks what's cool and what goes with what. I used to hate blue denim and now, it's my second favourite denim! Teamed with my white tee/dress, I think this is the perfect relaxed outfit perfect for nipping to the shops or going into uni. & as always I jazzed it up slightly with a pair of statement boots (can you tell I really like these boots at the moment) and a fringed backpack. I've been trying to make an effort to wear less all black outfits, but now I'm bored of colour so expect many all white/all black/all blue ensembles to come!

Clashy McClash

Black Tee - M&S | Midi Skirt - Topshop | Clutch - ASOS | Trainers - H&M

Just a quick one today, I wore this outfit to Liverpool on Sunday when I went watching the Tour of Britain (cycling) and even though it was something I quickly threw on as I was in a rush, I've fallen for it. I love the mixture of the manly, oversized tee with the figure hugging skirt. I'm really into clashing prints at the moment and love the mix of the monochrome floral with the classic leopard print on my shoes. A new favourite look, I love mixing smart pieces with casual.
