ASOS: The AW14 Co-Ord

An Outfit Post featuring ASOS Co-ord Knitted T-Shirt and skirt

ASOS Co-Ord: Top & Skirt. Missguided Boots (Similar here). Hat. Bag. Vintage Belt. Kelseys Feathers Clip. Missguided Trench Coat.

It's safe to say everyone went nuts for co-ords last season and there doesn't seem to be any stopping them transitioning beautifully over to A/W. I own a couple, but the floral trend didn't do much for me and I've been awaiting the monochrome pieces to drop for Autumn like a dog on heat.

This fluffy set of joy from ASOS has successfully satisfied every bone in my fashion loving body. Spotted detail with a super soft texture and lightweight feel it's not only cute but the cut is extremely sophisticated. And don't let the fluffiness put you off - there's no moulting or itchiness here, just pure and utter, blissful comfort.

It's outfits like this that make me so stupidly excited for Autumn.

Follow the Yellow Brick Road

Jumper: Factorie (Australia), Belt: Vintage. Skirt: ASOS. Brogues: ASOS. Bag: Sweetheart, Hat: Topshop

Afternoon lovelies! I've been extremely good with my pennies of late, I can't recall the last time I bought myself a piece of clothing but when I spotted these 'Dorothy' brogues and a-line mini skirt on ASOS I was in love and there wasn't much standing between me and my bank card. A girl deserves a treat every now and then, eh?

I already have two pairs of brogues (whoopsy) but I didn't own a patent pair, and they certainly weren't ox-blood. I'd also been on the lookout for some more colourful skirts - mine all seem to be very plain and for the days when I'm feeling snazzy (today) I want to be able to throw on some colour and not worry too much about what to pair it with. This skirt goes perfectly with pretty much anything - whether it's toasty outside and you fancy a crop top or like today where it's a bit chilly I just threw on this plain oversized jumper and tights to keep me warm.

I'm off to mum and dads tonight for dinner whilst Daniel wines and dines his friends with a BBQ! Tomorrow I'll be painting the kitchen table and chairs and then before we know it Monday will be upon us..

What are you all up to over the weekend? Hope you all have a good one :)

Style Challenge with ASOS & Urban Outfitters | How to Style a Denim Jacket - 5 Ways!

Denim Jacket: c/o Urban Outfitters & ASOS. Bag: Urban Outfitters. Top: Mums undies! Disco Pants: American Apparel. Boots: TK Maxx

I had an email come through a few weeks ago from one of the lovely ladies at ASOS Fashion Finder HQ asking if I’d like to participate in their . After picking my jaw up from the floor and doing a celebratory dance around my room I of course replied and said ‘yes please!’

The feature was to style a piece from Urban Outfitters vintage collection in 5 different ways. I chose this beast of a denim jacket and the task was actually much harder than I had first anticipated, but I gave it my best and you can .

I thought I would share my favourite of the 5 styles in a full outfit post – y’know give that jacket the recognition it deserves. When I picked the jacket off the website I wasn’t aware that the sizes came up big and went for a small. When it arrived and would quite clearly fit a grown 6ft man I panicked – but when I slipped it on I absolutely fell in love. I think it goes to show that you never know with fashion and that’s why it’s so fun to take risks, because sometimes they can pay off (well, I hope it has anyway!)

I hadn’t pulled my disco pants out for a while so teemed with my mum’s old underwear (who would wear this top as undies can I just ask?), my velvet ankle boots and Aztec backpack I’m quite enjoying the grungy, biker girl feel.

I’d really love to know what you think of the and which one is your favourite :)

Do you own a denim jacket? How do you style yours?
