burgundy bodycon ootd

Holaaaa, as exams are over I intend to get back into the routine of blogging, starting with a quick ootd :)

My jumper is primark mens- there was a thick elastic band at the bottom but i gave that the chop! (i think it was £7)

My leather jacket with faux-fur collar is from dorothy perkins (£55. but i got 15% student discount, boom)

My skirt is from primark & i loved the ribbed/textured detailing on it..its also fairly thick material which is always good! (£3-4)

I'm a sucker for patterned tights anyway, but I adore this pair! Although they're 'hole-y' for me they haven't laddered nor got any extra holes in! (I think i got them for £1.50 from a charity shop near my gramps)

My shoes are my leopard print creepers from newlook. I hated creepers with a passion but I've grown to love them! (£10, new look sale)

My socks are the famous topshop ankle,frilly jobs. I love the look of the 'tough' shoes with a cute, girly pair of socks. I also love the slight hint of khaki with this look. especially next to the leopard print (Topshop £3.50 or 3 for £8)

My sheer shirt is from topshop and i was drawn to the detailing on the collar- a simple but effective was to bring an outfit together (£36..i think haha)

Knits & Bolts OOTD

Holaaa, I have another quick OOTD for you :)

   - today was my first day back at college after christmas (boooo, sadface!) and I felt like a simple & cosy outfit that didn't take much thinking and was comfy. As you'll see, this outfit would be easy to recreate if you have similar pieces in your wardrobe (which I'm sure most people would) and is easy to throw on if you're a tad short for time in the mornings!! 

Ps. I do have a black bodycon skirt underneath the jumper, just before you think otherwise!!!

Oversized, thick-knit jumper: Urban Outfitters, £50 (last season)

Burgundy beanie, Newlook, £5 (I'm quite sure they are in the sale at the moment so go grab one!!)

Lightening bolt tights: -unknown-

Grey frilly socks, Topshop, £3.50 or 3 for £8

Leopard print creepers, New Look, £10 (sale)

I wore this look with simple eyemakeup; Urban Decay's 'Sidekick' all over the lid with a very light touch of 'Smog' in the crease, finished with a thin sweep of eyeliner & brush of mascara & then a bold lip; Revlon's kissable balm stain in 'Crush Begun' and Topshop's 'Inhibition' Lipstick :)
