neon beanie & a lot of black

Hat - H&M, Jumper - Primark, Dress - c/o Lavish Alice, Belt - Primark, Leather Jacket - Topshop, Fur Collar - Topshop, Bag - c/o La Moda, Boots - Dr. Martens Serena

 Don't hate me cause I'm wearing a classic Lydia outfit.. again! Midi dress, beanie & the new fake fur collar that is likely to be showing its face on here blog quite regularly. I forgot how much I love fur collars. They make any coat look like something different. My Topshop leather jacket is slightly battered and bruised now, so it's spruced it up a bit. 

An (almost) all-black outfit for me means minimal effort. I can be a bit picky with mixing colours up.. black is just simple. I don’t know how I’m going to cope in the summer when I have to start wearing colour again! The beanie is probably the brightest thing I own, but isn't it a babe? I should have definitely bought the matching mittens. 


I wanted to wear the midi dress but knew I would end up going blue if I didn’t put a few extra layers on. The half dead look isn't cute. Ha. Luckily I found this old Primark jumper.. even though it’s a bit shredded up it kept me toasty enough. I’ve bought so much rubbish from Primark over the years that it’s nice to find something that hasn’t fallen to bits in the first wash!

  18. I recently got my hands on a midi skirt for three dollars (!!!). I felt the need to pick it up, but now I feel lost in the styling options. Do you think the key is a shoe with some height or a shoe that is the same color as the skirt?

    1. I usually wear flats with midis but I'd say going for the same colour shoe is quite sensible.. I mainly think it's getting a midi that's the right sort of length.. if they're too long or short they can look a bit odd! :) x
