ADDING AUTUMN COLOUR


So I've gone for a bit of a change up, photography wise. I've been wanting to make some alterations to the blog for a while now (anyone else get regularly decide they want to completely change their blog and start again!?), so working on being a bit braver when it comes to blog photography is my first baby step. I used to really enjoy doing it, but I guess I just got out of the habit and over time decided I was too wimpy to once again stand in the middle of the street to get blog pictures, while random folk wonder what the heck you're doing. For these I had my ma on hand to snap away, but I've also had my brother's girlfriend helping out, so we'll see how we go! As much as outfit photography can drive me mad, I do like that it's a bit of a learning curve.

So... I'm wearing colour here and I actually like it. I picked this dress up from Matalan over the weekend for £9, bit of a steal. It's pretty simple, but the kind of thing I can wear with heels or more like this, casual with comfy shoes. I've just ordered some adidas Superstar trainers (I know, everyone & their grandmas' have them but they seem like a good basic?!), so I think they'll be perrrrfect with this maroon number. 

Matalan actually had some really cute bits in store.. Sometimes I find it a bit hit & miss but this season they've got some loverrrly accessories! If you follow me on Snapchat (fashioninflux) you'll have seen some schmancy pointy flats, but they also had pom-pom shoes I would have been coming home with had they had my size. Pook.

Oh my days it is snowy up North. My area has got well over a foot of the stuff so I thought you’d let me off with trekking out to take blog pictures! Today I’ve been for a walk with my mamma in the woods so I did get chance to take a few pictures while we had a wander. My outfit basically consisted of lots of layers & wellies.. not exactly on trend! If anyone does want a nosey at the outfits I don't get chance to post on here then there’ll be plenty of pictures on my Instagram (fashioninflux). The little corset thingymabobby I’m wearing is actually what I wore under my dress for prom. Depressingly, that was over 5 years ago now.. when did I get so old?! I’m definitely going to be wearing under some form of sheer shirt when the summer finally arrives. Having a...

lace flares & cropped jumper

Hat - River Island, Jumper - River Island, Belt - Primark, Lace Flares - H&M, Boots - c/o Missguided , Bag - c/o La Moda What does everyone think of the landscape pictures? I included a few today as sometimes I feel like you can’t really see the whole outfit. And the scenery was quite pretty. These pictures were taken a few days ago and my garden is now covered in much more snow. It looks lovely, but golly it’s a pain! I’m not keen on falling over or skidding in my car! I had to get my lace flares out after seeing Lucy look mega gorgeous in hers. I’m really sick of wearing tights and leggings so they make a nice change. They’re very see through so I’ve got a really thick pair of tights on underneath. I think I could have been wearing them in my first year at big school but they’ll do! The jumper I’m wearing has been worn to death since I got it for my birthday. It’s one of those things you can throw on over everything and feel cosy but still l...

slogan tee & cherry disco pants

Hat - River Island, T-Shirt - c/o Studded Petals , Belt - Primark, Disco Pants - c/o Glamorous , Boots - c/o Missguided I’ve been wanting to show you all this tee since it arrived. What do you think of the slogan?! I love it.. Such fun! Excuse the Miranda reference.. ‘such fun’ has now become part of my lingo. Ha. This is the closest I’ll be getting to anything Chanel related for a long time, which is fine by me.. it’s cute as a button. Fingers crossed though for one day earning enough mega bucks to end up flouncing around with a quilted 2.55 baby. Day dreaming yet again. Hopefully, you’re not all going to be turned off by a disco pants outfit. I know they’ve been overdone, but I’ve never really been the sort of person to be put off by something like that. If I like a trend or piece of clothing, I’ll still be wearing it even when everyone & their grandma’s has it. It’s more how you wear it I think. Annoyingly, I wore the t-shirt down after I’d take...
