Fashion - AW15 Wardrobe Updates

I recently bought a few things for my autumn/winter wardrobe that I thought I would share with you.

I'm absolutely loving these boots from Ted & Muffy. They were £170, but I didn't realise that if you shop online you can get 25% off your first order with the code WEL25. They are super comfy and I wear them to work with dresses or at the weekend with jeans. They're really versatile.


I bought a couple of dresses for work from White Stuff and Sandwich at House of Fraser, including this Shaker Jersey Dress:


I loved so many of the Gray & Willow pieces, and ended up buying a few staple t-shirts along with this gorgeous jumper. I do love a sequin!


I wore this travelling to Portugal in the October holidays and had to go in the full body scanner at the airport due to the sequins which set of the x-ray machine!

After House of Fraser I went to Princes Square to Cos, a shop that I love, and my favourite piece that I chose is a belted blouse. Again, its a versatile item that can be dressed up or down. It's only downside is that it's dry clean only.


Next on my fashion shopping list is an outfit for my work Christmas Party... I can't believe we're in November already!!

#JanuaryJoy - Refresh Your Style

One of Rebecca's #JanuaryJoy prompts is 'Refresh Your Style'.

I start my new job this week, and as such I thought this was a perfect time to buy a few items of clothing as part of a wardrobe refresh.

After watching some of Lily Pebbles vlogs, my first (& last!) port of call was Cos in Princes Square.


It was my first time in the store, and I will most definitely be going back. Thank you Lily for introducing me, although I'm not sure that my bank will be as appreciative!

Here's what I picked up:




I also picked up two jumpers that were in the sale, but I can't find them on the website. I chose one in navy, and one in black.

What I love about these tops is that they are ideal for a capsule wardrobe. They all will work equally well with jeans as they will with smarter trousers or a skirt for work. I'm also really impressed with the quality of the fabric. Hopefully they all wash well too and will last for a good while.

I'll try and get some photographs of my wearing my new tops for you soon.

This is a very busy week for me, so please bear with me as I may be a little quiet here. It's my birthday on Wednesday and then on Thursday I start my new job... eek! All very exciting stuff!!!!
