Zara Wishlist.

We all love Zara, they never fail us high street junkies!

I bought these white ripped boyfriend jeans in the sale for like £10 or something silly! I LOVE them. This was the first time I have worn them as the weather hasn't really permitted it. This day was freezing but the sun was shining and no rain was forecasted so I bit the bullet! I teamed them with a simple black vest top, my black fluffy cardi, and h&m jacket, with my roshes. I was going to wear my black ankle boots, but was going to be doing a fair bit of walking, so I'll save them for next time. 



 
 

So, I went into Zara last weekend to see their new collection. There were many items I tried on and wanted to purchase but the bank balance is a little tight at the moment. Not the greatest of photos to follow-  especially as my mid-drift is out! 



This jumper - no words to describe my love for it. Probably not the most practical of tops, and it would be one of those items I buy for the sake of owning it and not actually wearing it. Come on, you all have at least one of these items in your wardrobe?! (Usually shoes?) But this jumper - bang on for the 'sheer trend' (afterthought - thats going to be my next blog.)



 
Since starting this post I have been on the Zara wesbite - I know why do I do this to myself? But I work at a computer and have my lunch at my desk - only means one thing... online wishing/ dreaming!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Hurry up warmer weather - it is too cold to wear these and then they will be sold out by the time the sun is out!
 
Ugly but so right!
 
 
 
 
I'm not even going to post the clothes I saw online or else we will be here for even longer! Whats on your Zara Wishlist?

Teddy Bear Coat.

How is everyone's January blues going?

Last week I had an amazing week and was behind the scenes at our (schuh) SS14 campaign. I have never been to a photoshoot before so I was LOVING it. I have lots of photos to share and if you follow me on Instagram you would have seen some tasters of the shoot last week. I will dedicate a post to it soon though. 

I thought I'd share some of my new buys... Have you heard of oniochalasia? It's buying or shopping as a method of stress relief or relaxation! Also I saw this this other day "sweating while you shop counts as exercise!" Which I keep telling myself today especially as I have only been to the gym twice this week! But I have done lots of walking! 

Anyway, so my fave purchase is probably my new jumper which arrived Wednesday - I love coming home from work with a parcel awaiting for me! Especially when I have forgotten what it was I ordered! (That's bad isn't it?!) I would never be able to afford an ACNE jumper so when I found a link to this jumper off a fashion blogger I follow Hannah Crosskey I couldn't help myself. If you haven't come across Hannah's personal style blog before, you should definitely start following it. ACNE's name derives from "ambition to create novel expression."

Also my teddy bear coat which I found today in a vintage shop called Armstrong in Grass Market, Edinburgh. I probably could have done with it before now as it's cosy warm, but up here it is still freezing so I will get quite a few wears out of it still. Plus I don't think it will ever go out of style- so an investment piece too. 





Trousers: H&M 
Coat: Armstrong Vintage 
Nike Roshe trainers: schuh 
Socks: Topshop (see below picture) 

Selfie with a fedora style hat I didn't purchase as I couldn't wear the hat with the coat! ott. I could probably wear it when not wearing the coat- I only tried it on as hats don't suit my short hair- but I was surprised that it actually didn't look too hideous! 


Other purchases that make me happy. 


Clutch: Zara sale


Socks: Topshop - I CANNOT wait to rock these with some chunky sandals and Birkenstocks. Hurry up summer!


You cant go wrong with another pair of jeans.

Jeans: Topshop sale


iPhone 5 phone case: KENZO 

Love or hate the case? I LOVE!
