monochrome midi ootd

hola, another quick ootd! I like this look because it looks chic and elegant, but also casual and edgy- my perfect combination!!
   I think this look would look good with a topknot, but i felt like messy-straight-alexa-chung-esque hair today.. I also paired this look with simple winged eye makeup & then a bold coral lip (Revlon's 'Kiss Me Coral') & a bright orange/coral nailpolish (cant remember the brand but was only 99p from bodycare!!- if you want to know what it was comment & i'll find out for you)

My striped midi dress is from new look (£12.99....or there abouts). I love how the simple monochrome stripes can make an outfit so much more interesting, as well as the slight turtle-neck collar.
   My cream jumper with the studded detailing on the shoulder was £25 in the topshop sale.. it is a good thickness & hangs perfectly.
   My socks were £2.50 from primark and oh my gosh they are so soft and warm and cute!!! (Obviously, you could wear tights also, but it was a bit warmer today & I just couldn't be bothered with the faff!)
   My leather jacket which you've all seen before was £55 from dotty p's- it's such a versatile piece and was one of my best investments.
   I paired my oxblood docs with this look as they keep my feet warm, and just look amazing with everything..basically..

Hope you like this outfit and can take some inspiration from it! xxx

Baroque MTV?!?!

Hola, another quick/simple ootd.. I like looking at people's daily outfits for ideas, so even if I don't have the exact same clothing items as they're wearing I can think of similar ones I own and can go from there...hopefully I can give some of you some inspiration if you're in a rush and just can't think of what to wear one day, hahah!!

MTV Jumper, River Island, (£10 sale) ..its a size 16 but I personally prefer my jumpers baggy. I was so happy to find this design as SO many people had the MTV clothing but I hadnt seen anyone with this particular print :)

Leggings, H&M Kids, (£6, few years agp) ..you cant see in this picture but they're actually very subtle leopard print, in different shades of grey. It adds something to this outfit so its not boring, but not so much it becomes un-casual (if thats even a word...)

Navy Blue Docs, (£15, Ebay....BOOM!!) ..I adore my docs..they go with everything and I especially like this colour against the grey leggings; the patent finish also adds another texture to the look :)

Chain, Topshop (£6, sale) ..i love the 3 different colours within this particular chain making it more versatile & meaning it goes with more outfits (duhh..haha)
