All The Pink

Firstly, I must apologise for my lack in outfit posts recently. I've been struggling with body confidence, so taking pictures of myself isn't really what I felt comfortable doing! I've mostly been focusing on my YouTube at the moment, which I'll link here! I did eventually suck it up, and go out and shoot these new beautiful clothes. 
I sadly couldn't attend the Linzi S/S15 press day, but from looking at the pictures, I was immediately drawn to these pink and white heeled sandals. Of course, I had to have them! As they're a block heel, I did anticipate a little more comfort than your average heeled sandal, and I was further impressed with the padded sole! Literally, I didn't want to take them off! They're a perfect holiday shoe, and I seriously need the other colours they do!
Obviously, I couldn't not pair some pink with these shoes, so I opted for my new 'Kim K' pink waterfall waistcoat. This does have a belt to cinch you in at the waist, but I loved the way it floated in the wind, and it looked so much better on me open! I've seen these all over the place, but mine is from Missy Empire.. for £21.99!! For real. I was pleasantly surprised! I'd highly recommend checking them out, they do so many pieces for a fraction of the price you'd expect from other stores!
I didn't really want too much else going on with the outfit, so I went for a simple, 'white tee and jeans' look. I also slung on my teeny tiny pink and white Grafea to tie in all of the colours!

A Chilly Spring Day

As you'll have seen, I've collaborated with Miss Pap numerous time throughout my time blogging, and now I'm excited to be regularly blogging for them! This weeks post is all around these gorgeous staple white ripped jeans. I've wanted a pair for ages, and I think you all know how much I rave about Miss Pap jeans, they're second to none! They're so thick, yet still maintain comfort with that 'easy jean' feel. 

White jeans are perfect for Spring/Summer, and I love that these have rips in them, adding a little edge!

I just chucked on this poncho which I've had for a while, it was a little chilly whilst shooting, so even though it's short sleeved, the thin knit was enough to shield me from the cold.

I also popped on my new criss-cross sliders which I picked up from Forever 21 for an event. They're SO perfect for me as I seriously can't handle a heel for long, but I don't always like wearing 'just' flats, so the fact that these have a thicker and shorter heel is amazing, and I can confirm that I can last all day in them!

Ps, I switched up the location of these pictures half-way through as I wasn't feelin' my look, can I live?

Ripped Jeans and a Spring Coat

This look is super casual and 'Spring-y' as it was an absolutely gorgeous day when the pictures were shot! I can't say much about the weather now, but these images certainly have me yearning for the warmer months. 
I actually wore a very similar look to this to London Fashion Week, switching the jumper for a stripe tee, and the camel coat to a camel duster. I got this jacket in the mail recently from Naanaa Clothing, and it's even better in person. The material is so light, but it hangs like an absolute dream. (Quite bouncy, if that makes sense?). As it's in a very neutral shade, it goes with most of my wardrobe, and will easily see me through the warmer weather.
I'm not sure if I've already featured these jeans before, but they're my ultimate favourites. I must have mentioned in previous posts, but Miss Pap literally do the best jeans.. EVER. They're so stretchy and soft, yet the feel like good hardwearing jeans. A rarity these days, as most are thin and lack shape after some time. 
After getting a little sick of lugging around huge bags with me everywhere, I decided to invest in a couple of smaller bags, just for the essentials. I picked this one up in H&M for only £12.99, and I now own it in black too! (PS, both of them are on sale for £7..whaaaaaat).

Spring Days in Burgundy

How beautiful has the weather been recently? It certainly motivates me to get on with things! It's hard to feel sluggish when the weather is so pretty. Not only did I take this opportunity to shoot some blog pictures, but I also used to bring my little doggy outside! He's not one for the outdoors, but a little bit of fresh air does him good. (Also, he makes my pictures extra cute).

I understand the sunshine wasn't exactly calling for winter shades, but I'm not sure I'm quite ready to bring out the bright colours yet! Although I do see it in the offing..

I decided to pair my gorgeous ASOS sale trousers with this little burgundy check jacket. The jacket is super lightweight, but is made of a very fine knit material, so enough to keep you warm when there's a chill! This is from South Avenue and is an absolute bargain! (PS, you can get 20% off the store using the code 'NICOLE20', you're welcome!).

I layered up a couple of Missguided jersey tops to add a little texture, as I thought just a plain black top would be boring and basic. (Not cool).

PS, sorry for the multitude of pictures of my dog, he's just so damn fabulous.

Slouchy Silhouettes

Today's post is involving a favourite 'go-to' style of mine, slouchy! Comfort is key for my outfits, so the fact that the 'relaxed look' is in is great! I can pass off what I once called 'hobo chic' as 'fashion'.

I've been wearing this jumper to death since I bought it, literally it's my favourite jumper in the whole world. H&M never fail to please me when it comes to a good roll neck, and this is no exception. 

I picked up these trousers in the ASOS sale a while back, and again, I wear these all the time. Whilst they're a little big on me, they're super comfy. Definitely a good pair of eating pants, if you know what I mean.

I wanted to add a pop of colour to this outfit, and staying with the comfortable theme, I went for my Reeboks that my boyfriend bought me for Christmas. They actually match my hair, which is pretty cool! See, it wasn't completely random accessorising.

Checked Neutrals

Oooh it has been a while! (Outfit post wise). I just haven't been in the mood stand in the freezing cold. Yes, it's getting brighter, but that chill just won't let up! I'm really trying to post frequently as I absolutely love blogging, and I refuse to let work get in the way of my passion!

Ever since London Fashion Week, it's like I've really come into myself, fashion-wise. I know what I want to wear, and I'm going to wear it! I picked up these gorgeous relaxed trousers from Zara recently, and ugh, they're perfect. Actually, not entirely perfect. There's some very unfortunate stitching on the crotch that's driving me insane, but other than that, they're amazing. They're super thick, soft, and soooo comfortable.

Speaking of London Fashion Week, I picked up this Kim K style coat to wear for the occasion from Miss Pap. I definitely recommend sizing up as although it's quite a relaxed coat, the arms are pretty snug. It's fairly thin, yet it manages to shield me from the cold which was quite surprising!

Now I may be getting ahead of myself, but Spring/Summer is fast approaching and I'm starting to grab myself some new sandals. The latest in my collection are all cross strap mules and I'm obsessed. I spotted these from the Missguided SS/15 event pictures and knew they had to be mine. I love the metallic gold strap entwined with the glossy black one! The heels is only a small block one, so comfort isn't being sacrificed with these babies, and I could spend all day in them!

PINSTRIPES

Oooh, an outfit post! It's been a little while since I've shot one of these, and thats purely down to lack of time, and the fact that I've been falling in love with all things make-up! Don't worry though, I still love fashion and will always be posting outfits! I'm actually going to London Fashion Week next week for the first time, eek!! I'm so excited! Expect lots of pictures! 
Anyway, on to the outfit! I'm obsessed with pinstripes, and I've acquired quite a few pieces in the print, (mostly tailoring). One pinstripe suit is not enough for me, and I'm always after another! I'm currently lusting after a black/navy on white set, so hopefully I'll get a hold of one of those soon.  As soon as I spotted this on Missguided, and I was like.. YEP. I've not stopped wearing the trousers. They're SO comfortable. Although they're quite clearly a tailored trouser, the material is fairly stretchy. Perfect eating trousers! I know, how sad. I do genuinely wear them every time we go out for a meal though as I can go all out and eat all the burgers in the world and still breathe!! (Kinda). The bralet is something I'm definitely saving for the warmer months, but popping it under a snuggly coat is totally acceptable. 
I think I'm slightly confused about the weather with this outfit to be honest.. I mean, I'm wearing a big coat.. and sliders???? They're cute, so whatever. It works in my head!  I love these rose-gold metallic sliders from Primark. They're literally a dream. The sole is super spongey and comfortable, something I fully appreciate in a shoe. I did get a little ahead of myself, and I picked up a couple of pairs of summer appropriate shoes, but I know they're going to fly out when the sun arrives, so I'm all stocked up! They do them in a few more colours, and I can see myself swaying towards picking those up too. Oops!
I hope you all enjoyed this post! Let me know what you'd like to see more of, beauty, fashion, whatever!
