I'm sure you're all pleasantly overwhelmed with the amount of duster coats hitting the shops, and I'm sure you've all seen it in the very on-trend 'grid' print! Well, I absolutely love it. I want grid print everything. It's such an edgy twist to what would be your basic monochrome look.
I picked this classic duster up from Ark whilst they were offering 20% student discount! I wouldn't mind owning the reverse colours in this duster coat as well, but my bank balance has told me I must stop and I must stop now!
I love higher necked crop tops, and I spotted this one in Primark amongst a variety of other colours, so I picked a few of them up! They're the perfect basics, and for only £2.50.. it's only right to get them all?
I've not worn skater skirts much recently, but I pulled this one out from the pile as I thought it was cute and simple. As much as I agree that skater skirts can look 'childish', I also think they can be quite girly and cute!
I've been wearing my good old Topshop peep-toe shoes quite a lot at the moment as they're so so comfortable, but I worry I'm going to have to pack them away again soon when the weather is no longer on my side! I'm in desperate need in finding the perfect A/W boot.
To bring out the pink in my little top, I decided to use my pink Grafea camera bag! Although I absolutely adore my pastel shades of Grafea, I'm really struggling to include them in my A/W outfits, so I really need to get a hold of a more suitable shade!
How're you all liking the new location? This isn't particularly far from my house, however I'm a little nervous I'm trespassing where I shouldn't! Ah well, until I get told otherwise or shot by a farmer, hopefully this is suitable!
(Ps, the wind was destroying my hair, photos, life.. so sorry!).

I was really struggling for a name for this blog post, but it seemed pretty apt to name it after the lovely necklace I'm wearing!
I was very kindly sent this beautiful statement necklace from London Style, which is a British jewellery brand selling quality statement pieces.
I'm completely obsessed with the detail and the stones on the necklace. They're such a unique combination of gems, definitely a standout amongst most other statement necklaces on the market. I couldn't possibly get a good enough picture of how stunning the emerald green stones are, so please take my word for it!
I also have a couple more pieces to show you from their range, so look forward to seeing them again!
I think it's clear my outfit has been based around my necklace, so I went for the blues!
My trousers are an absolute STEAL from Primark. I don't think it would be a very 'Nicole' blog post without some Primark! I also picked them up in a Barbie pink, which shall be featured soon.
Actually, my top is another Primark bargain from a few summers back! Loose crops are my favourite, especially in this killer heat, anything fitted is a no-no in this weather.
Recently, I'm never without a trusty maxi kimono. (The most forgiving summer essential!). This one is from New Look, which I've now purchased in a lighter blue! (Obsessed, right?!).
And finally, another colour in the rainbow that is my jelly shoe collection! I spotted these in Ark on my way to the check-out. It was one of those 'yep, that's mine!' situations!
Anyway, I decided to take a seat in a few of these shots, not entirely sure it works for me as I'm not so sure I should be compressed as much as I should be stretched out. Does that make sense? No? Okay, I'll stop. Enjoy your evenings my lovely people!
