Fringe X Leather







White Shirt - Topshop | Fringe Leather Skirt - Topshop | Contrast Boots - Topshop | Sunglasses - ASOS

Wow, you know sometimes you don't realise that you might have a shopping problem when nearly every bit of your outfit is from Topshop... Yeah that. I love fringe this season, I own two very different fringe skirts which I adore and I am queen of not wearing colour and this is a perfect example of me doing that. 

Today, I submitted my last ever piece of coursework so I really really done with university education now! Unless I have managed to fail my exams again... But we shall see! So now I am preparing for Parklife this weekend and then Venice the weekend after :D so if anyone has any tips or top places to see in Venice please comment below

Weave








Smock Top - New Look | Jeans - ASOS Petite | Headscarf - Vintage | Wedges - ASOS

Hey guys! Finally I have finished university and with that I hopefully return to blogging properly, although as my boyfriend likes to point out I say this everytime I post! But for reals, I am back for good.

My style has changed quite a bit over this year, moving towards more floaty 70's vibes but still sticking to my black and white thing. I re-discovered my love for headscarves and wrapping them round my head even if I do get strange looks in Lancaster. Teamed with my regular black skinny jeans and the most awkward pair of shoes ever to walk in, my clumpy weave wedges! A shoe that when my mum saw them, she just commented on how on Earth I walk in them. Will I ever learn, no.

Love, Elena

Suede









Stripy Tee - ASOS | Suede Skirt - Glamorous @ ASOS | Snake Print Boots - ASOS | Turban

Hey dolls, is it just me who only starts to realise they have an obsession with ASOS when you type out that every item of clothing in this outfit is from there... 

I know I promised I was coming back properly to blogging during my easter break from university but life yet again took over, and juggling a job, hosting a radio show, revision and spending time with the those I love always takes priority and I don't want to churn out some god awful outfit posts just for the sake of it. 

The plan is to make a full return to full time blogging mid-May once I finish university fully, and can hopefully rope my boyfriend into becoming my photographer whether he likes it or not. 

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter, filled with love and joy. I've had a great past few weeks.

Keep checking my Instagram for regular outfits and pictures, & you can also tune into my Fashion Radio Show on W!ZARD RADIO every Saturday night between 7pm and 8pm!

At the Bath House











Wide Leg Trousers - H&M | Jumper - Oh My Love by Topshop | Pumas - Schuh

The wide leg trouser trend is one I've wanted to dip my toe into for a while, but always felt they overpowered my tiny frame and made it look like I'd escaped from the circus... After trying various pieces with these black satin pair, I decided the best way to broach the trend was to stick to what I know best, monochrome by using black and white to set the trousers off. The trainers make the whole outfit look like a bit more chilled, but it could be easily paired with a pair of barely there heels for an evening look, I might need to get them shortened though...

In other news, for those who don't follow my Twitter page, this week I announced my new radio show which will be started next Saturday at 7pm on W!ZARD Radio, presenting a girls sleepover type show focusing on fashion, beauty and gossip. This came about due to my blog work so I can only thank the people who read my posts for supporting me, and hopefully a few of you might tune in, there's opportunity to win amazing prizes too! I am amazingly grateful for what this blog has brought me and the happiness it gives me.

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!

My Fur & Me








Fur Coat - Missguided | Jeans - ASOS | Mules - Debenhams

Today marks my last collab with UNiDAYS on how to wear jeans in interesting ways. At the end of the day, sometimes you just want to throw something on and still look amazing. Well my friends, a fur coat will solve all your problems! Interesting enough to steal the show outfit-wise, but works perfectly with a normal pair of jeans. And did I mention, they are bloody warm during this sudden cold spell that seems to have hit the UK!

It might be a bit out there for Lancaster, but since when I have cared about being a bit out there. This coat was actually £12 and went crazy on Twitter about 2 weeks ago, when everyone realised it was such a bargain price. How can one say no?

I hope you've enjoyed my UNiDAYS collab, look out for these 3 looks on their blog in the coming weeks!

Have a sick Sunday x

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!

Fred





Hat - Fred Perry | Duster Coat - ASOS | Top - H&M | Leather Trousers - New Look | Slip On's - Asos | Bag - Zara

I told you I was back for good! I've gone back to university this week so I using my many photographers to my advantage, in which I shot FIVE outfit's today for you guys. So look forward to those coming your way!

This is what I wore to university today, pretty chilled but I like to actually show what I wear rather than something I'd like to wear. This duster coat has appeared constantly on the blog and it is my baby, a bit too thin for winter but it's all about layering! My new favourite knitted item is my Fred Perry hat, which my lovely boyfriend bought my for Christmas and it is my first ever item from Fred Perry, hopefully the start of many more... 

As you can also see my hair is a lot more naturale now, and I bloody love it. This is truly the longest it's ever been so you guys are lucky to see it during my good hair stage of my life.

I've just finished shooting some outfit posts with UniDays, a guide of ways to wear your jeans without looking the same everyday! So this will be posted throughout the week and hopefully by UniDays too!
