Yellow Mellow

1. Light Blue Blazer (link here) - £3.99

2. (Similar) New Look Black Gingham Contrast Sleeve T - Shirt (link here) - £14.99

3. Boohoo Tianna Box Pleat Colour Pop Skater Skirt (link here) - £10.00

4. Daisy Street Kaylin Patent Cut - Out T - Bar Shoes in Yellow (link here) - £14.99

I am absolutely loving my new yellow T - bar shoes from Daisy Street, very SS14. Firstly, what a bargain the light blue blazer is at £3.99?! I bought it from an online E-bay store from China. It did take a while to get here, but it was so worth it. I am wearing my Topshop Gingham T-shirt. Unfortunately, it has sold out online, however, I managed to find an alternative from New Look which is very similar. I feel the Gingham Print breaks up the pastel colours. I wore the Tianna Pop Skater Skirt and I was dying for a pinky coloured shade and this came in store a few weeks ago and I just had to snap it up. The shoes will be featured in many of my outfits throughout SS14 I'm sure!

Until next time,

Florals and Lace

 ASOS Skater Skirt In Vintage Sunflower Print £18 - Found here

Cream Lace Shirt - Vintage 

ASOS Petite Exclusive Blazer with Metallic Shine £23 - Found here

Topshop Milla Silver Lace Up Shoes £7 - Found here 

Today, I thought I would continue with slowly bringing the Spring colours and prints out of the wardrobe. I have decided to mix florals and lace together as they make a good combination. 

I adore the sunflower print skirt. It was only £18 from ASOS which I think is a great price. It is good quality. I think they are selling fast so if you want to purchase the skirt, I advise you get it NOW. :)

 I think it is definitely going to be my main staple for my Spring wardrobe as it goes with any outfit. For some reason, the print reminds me of the sunflower collection that American Apparel had out last year. I think sunflower prints are going to be huge this SS14. 

I paired the skirt today with a lace shirt. I have had this shirt for two years and I still love it. I purchased it from a vintage store but lace is going to be big for SS14 and many stores are starting to sell lace garments. I love the pointed collar on this shirt as I can style it in many ways. It looks very cute underneath a jumper. 

The blazer is again from ASOS at £23, however, it is sold out on the website as I purchased this in January 2013. This blazer is part of a matching set which I'll feature in my "Matching Set" post. I like this blazer because it is very versatile, yet unique. It can be worn with anything from skirts to jeans. I like the metallic shine and I really like the fit. It is from the Petite range therefore it is quite fitted and I feel it fits my frame well. 

As for my shoes, I am wearing the Topshop Milla hologram shoes. These were in the sale for £7 (bargain, right?!) but unfortunately, have sold out. I have noticed some pairs for sale on E - bay so get hunting!. I'm going to do a separate post for these shoes but all I will say is that if you want to stand out from the crowd and shine (literally) these are the shoes for you!

Hope you liked my post on more SS14 outfits. Tomorrow I will be doing a blog on outfits I liked from The Brits. 

Until then,

Angelina Jolie at The BAFTAs 2014 - THE Tailored Suit

This week is definitely a big week in regards to fashion in the UK. Three star - studded events are being held this week. The events are: London Fashion Week, The BAFTAs and The Brits. Basically, it's all about the London look.
This post is concentrating on Angelina Jolie at The BAFTAs and tailored suits.
The androgynous look is becoming more and more popular with the female population. Style and comfort is becoming a must. Angelina Jolie proudly mixed chic and the androgynous look as one at The BAFTAs this week.

Didn't Brangelina look fabulous together at The BAFTAs?! I remember when Victoria and David Beckham tried to attempt to pull off matching outfits on the red carpet a few years ago  (which failed immensely!) but Brangelina succeed!
Angelina looks gorgeous and definitely rocks the androgynous image and Brad is just looking at her adoringly, aww. The tailored suit that Angelina is wearing is from Yves Saint Laurent. Now, I am probably speaking for the majority of people right now but Yves Saint Laurent isn't exactly affordable, especially if you're a poor graduate like me. But it's okay! There are affordable tailored suits out there!

ASOS Tailored Jacket and Trousers:

ASOS Relaxed Blazer  £35 - found here

ASOS Trousers in Crepe with Slim Lapel £45 - found here

I am a big fan of ASOS' suits. They are smart and can be relied on. The Relaxed Blazer is smart yet casual with its fit. I can imagine it is a comfortable blazer. Sometimes, I find blazers can be quite tight and I can never really feel I have a lot of space to move around in fitted blazers. Therefore, I tend to stick to boyfriend blazers. This blazer would be perfect for a formal occasion yet can be worn with a pair of jeans for example. 

The ASOS trousers in Crepe actually are part of a matching set with a more fitted blazer. But after some consideration, I personally felt the relaxed blazer looked better with these trousers. But, the blazer which goes with the trousers is also listed on the link above if you prefer that blazer. :)

ZARA Royal Blue Blazer and Jacket: 

                   ZARA Buttoned Blazer £49.99 - found here

ZARA Ankle - Cropped Trousers - £29.99 - found here

This is a gorgeous royal blue tailored suit from Zara. Tailored suits don't have to be just black. Wearing this suit, you would definitely stand out from the crowd and would be making a great statement. I am a big, BIG fan of ankle grazer type trousers as they really compliment your ankles and look great with flats and boots. Ankle - cropped trousers are making a big impact on the fashion scene this year. (I own many pairs). I am also VERY impressed with the price of the cropped trousers at £29.99!. Usually Zara can be over priced I feel, but this is a reasonable price! The trousers look great quality too. This suit would definitely brighten up a dull office!. 

So, there we have it. My first blog post. How do you like to style tailored suits? Have you seen any reasonably priced tailored suits? Hope you enjoyed my first blog post (first of many!). :)

Lots of love,
