LUSTING.







So these are my current fashion lustings.
I must admit, I've been lacking a bit in inspiration lately. My clothes rails feel a bit bare and i'm not quite sure what to fill them with, hence the accessory heavy post! Usually I love this time of year for shopping, what with chunky knits, chunkier boots & oversized coats, but I am yet to buy a new winter coat & can't find a pair of boots I like anywhere! Nightmare! This Weekday coat one is the only one I've found that I absolutely love, but it's just a tad on the expensive side for me. Boo! I do love bringing back the autumnal make up shades though! Dark lipstick and berry nails polishes are my faves! 

Hopefully i'll find my clothes inspiration again soon, I suppose on the upside my bank card is having a nice rest!
Do link my any of your blogs, or blogs you think i'd like to give me a kick up the bum!

CHESHIRE CAT.

So here it is. My beloved scarf.

I want to wear it all the time, although I am getting a bit tired of "that looks like that cat off Alice in Wonderland" comments from all my male friends. I've also had the Bagpuss comparison once or twice. 
I can feel my fury scarf collection growing over the winter, I LOVE this other Asos striped faux fur scarf. Honestly, Asos are coming up the with absolute goods this Autumn!

THE WHITE TRAINER.

So they've been seen all over fashion week, all over Pintrest and on the feet of the best bloggers about.
The White trainer.
There's something really nostalgic and 90's about them, which I love. I remember the Spice Girls, All saints and all the good old British girl groups rocking them. When I was about 11, a white trainer and a combat trouser was my outfit of choice, maybe teamed with a Tammy Girl slogan tee (oh dear!)...Maybe that's why I've taken them so fondly in to my heart this time round.  You cant beat rekindling a childhood love.
I like to think that now i'd ditch the combats and Tammy Girl tee and pair them with some ripped skinny jeans or a nice tailored suit, like my favorite blogger Megan Ellaby did so amazingly for the first day of LFW. 
There's also some really nice high street versions knocking around, particularly the Whistles pair. I think there will be loads more great high street dupes over the Autumn, but with the real things being a reasonable price I think it might be time to invest.

GLAMOROUS.COM FAUX FUR. .






Vero Moda Jeans


So my faux fur love is growing by the day! & it will always faux I will add ...(I won't bore you with my morals and ethics, but I would never wear real fur. I don't care if it's Chanel and made with a golden chinchilla, it's not happeneing!)

I think fury goods are going to be my Autumn/Winter staple. This one isn't quite as colourful as I was wanging on about in my coloured fur post a little while ago, but it's grey; and my love for grey will always triumph!
I really love the eyelash effect on this Glamorous.com jacket, it's so cosy and creates a nice bit of texture, which I love for winter layering. They have so many really lovely faux fur styles on their website, from dogtooth and momochrome to this amazing pink statement coat.
Well worth a sneaky peek.

THE CULOTTE WAGON.








Zara Bucket Bag 

So after much debating, I am finally on the culotte band wagon, although i'm still debating a wee bit.
It's one of those things that I really love on other people, but i'm not 100% sure about them on me. Although this pair were an absolute steal in the Asos sale, and they're such a great fit round the waist (which is so rare for me, I struggle!) I don't think my boyfriend will be as keen... I have a feeling they will join my collection of man repelling items along with my hareem pants and statement necklaces, but who cares! I always say that i'd much rather another girl said I look nice than a boy, I value a women's opinion much more.

Whats your thoughts on the great culotte debate?

OBSESSION : COLOURED FUR CLUTCHES.


 
 
It appears I have a sudden & new obsession for a novelty fur clutch. I can't get enough of them! There's quite a few fine specimens on the high street at the moment, these are a few of my very favourites. I love the pinky/coral hues best... as you can see.
I also ordered this scarf from Asos the other day -
 
 
 
So it looks like my new fur accessory crush also spans to the scarf department. I literally cannot wait for it to arrive! I've been a bit bummed out with the evenings getting dark early and the weather getting a bit colder, but knowing I'll have this scarf round my neck makes the departure of summer and arrival of autumn/winter much for bearable!

I BANANA NY







Weekday T.shirt | Vero Moda Jeans | Zara Bag | Topshop Boots 

I'm so in love with my new bag that my boyfriend got me for my birthday, it reminds me of the Moschino bucket bags. I just want to wear it all the time with everything. I can't find the link to it online, but I know it's still in stores. It was only about £39 as well (yes I did pick it) which I think is an absolute bargain! It looks a lot more expensive & has such nice detailing on it.
He also brought me this t.shirt that I have loved for a while & this cute little necklace with my initial on, which you might have seen in mt last birthday post.
The boy did good!!

MY BIRTHDAY WEEKEND.



Birthday Treats | Zara selfie | I'm old | Wandering down Carnaby | Make-up treats | Joe & The Juice pick me up | Me & my boy | Window gazing | Hotel Chilling | My beautiful present from Josh

So my birthday weekend has just been and gone in a flash!
 
On Friday I went for some mojitos with my favourite gal palls & then for the weekend I went to stay in London with my boyfriend to do a bit of shopping & meet up with some family for a shandy or two. Unfortunately I was a bit poorly, so we didn't get to do a lot of the things I wanted to. Boo!! I knew there was a sure sign something was wrong when I was let loose in Topshop Oxford Street & didn't buy a thing!! Bad times!
It was my actual birthday yesterday though & I had such a lovely chilled day & evening with my mum, dad & boyfriend. I'm a major home bird, so spending the day pottering about with my parents & having a massive takeaway in my p.jays was the perfect day to me.
It's times like birthdays that I feel very blessed & lucky to have such wonderful friends & family!
Now I'm off to online shop to make up for my lack of it in London!
