THE CASUAL WORKWEAR FAVOURITE

Image
I’ll be wearing these dungarees until I can no longer fit in them, and at the rate I’m eating peanut butter, that could be soon. I’ve worn these on my blog repeatedly over the years, but they’re still an item I like. I’m a clothes hoarder, and if you read my blog regularly chances are you’re going to come on here and see something you’ve seen before. I’ve been wearing them most for work recently, as they’re a really easy option that don’t make me feel frumpy. Yeah, loads of days I just wear black trousers and a jumper, but sometimes that does feel a bit dull. Here I just wore them with my favourite shirt – it’s just a really oversized one from ZARA that I’ve worn relentlessly, for work and days off. Annnnd now for my most adult-y sentence ever – it washes well. When you get to 24 this is a real life thing. It wasn’t expensive, but it’s lasted and looks the same as when I first bought it. Fabity. The boots are probably the least work like thing, but they give me a ...

THREE WORK OUTFITS

Image
With Monday almost here again (CRY), I thought I'd share a few of my go-to outfits for heading into the office. Admittedly I do have much more casual days, but I am a fan of the smart-ish wardrobe... I'd probably wear versions of these looks on days off anyway! To keep things more casual I tend to just go for boots instead of heels. The video below has all the details for you!   Oh, and some seriously dodgy lighting has made me look a tad like a Simpson. I can assure you that in reality I haven't got jaundice. Blehhhh. Probably my favourite, as it still feels quite cute and not too office-y. I've had these dungarees yonks now, but they're still a favourite for smart-casual outfits. They're a year round office wardrobe staple for me - I can wear them with jumpers like this over winter, and lighter shirts during summer.  I only just got this shirt as I was after something a bit smarter... I always find stripy shirts are a good option for t...

BACK IN DUNGAREES

Image
T-Shirt - Primark, Dungarees - Missguided , Boots - Forever 21 I have probably worn this outfit (or a very similar version)  before on here. Yup, I've had these dungarees for almost two years, and the readers from back in the day probably will recognise them.  For once though I had chance to blog about an outfit on the day I wore it - doesn't happen often!  I think dungarees are probably trend that probably hopped off the fashuuun circuit a while ago, but I'm still a fan. I saw a picture on Pinterest earlier where a girl looked amazing in a pair, so I went about trying to come up with something similar. Now thinking about investing in a wide leg version of these?! Hmm.  Right, I'm off as I've just put some false nails on and I can't actually type. Marvellous. Plus, I'm also waiting for Kate & Wills to introduce the new bubba.. Ohhh it's so sweet. I'm that sad person that cried a bit when Prince George waved.  youtube / bloglovin /...

DUNGAREES & PINK ACCESSORIES

Image
Hat - H&M, Top - Topshop, Dungarees - Missguided, Sandals - c/o La Moda Even though the dungarees craze has probably hit its peak, I still love wearing mine. I've had this black number for a good while now, but it is one of the most versatile pieces in my wardrobe. I've worn it for everything from interviews to casual coffee trips with my Ma. Paired with a shirt for the former & some cozy knit for the latter.. bye bye are the days where dungarees meant looking like a 5 year old from the 90s! Today I've worn them pretty simple, just going matchy-matchy with the accessories. Matchy-matchy is definitely not a description that's going to make it into the pages of Vogue, but you get what I mean. These baby pink sandals are definitely my favourite shoes at the minute.. La Moda are on point as ever! They're the perfect pastel accompaniment for the candy colours that seem to be everywhere right now.. Topshop is forever making me want an ice cream c...
