An Outfit.

[Silver knit - H&M, Draped knit worn underneath - H&M, Necklace - F21, Boots - New Look, Jeans - Primark]

My boyfriend Tom bought me this metalic, oversized knit from H&M for Valentine's Day last month... And then after the first wear, I accidently shrunk it in the clothes dryer... Goodbye oversized-ness, oops! So, for a day of shopping recently I wore it over another knit from H&M & with my new New Look ankle boots. I'm so glad that I found these ankle boots, because I have been looking for some new boots for months now, to no avail. I'm sure they will be on my feet a lot between now and Summer.

Is everyone having a nice weekend so far? I have to work this afternoon, but have got a fun night of food and wine with friends to look forward to, to get me through the work day!

Printed dress - Dries Van Noten

If one of each of these items were to magically appear in front of my eyes right now I would be a very happy lady.

What are you coveting at the moment? :)

Life In Pictures


1. On the spur of the moment whilst at my hair appointment at the weekend I had my hair cut slightly differently & a shorter than I had it before. I'm really glad I decided to have a change & I love having it shorter so far :). (The lipstick I'm wearing is Pink Shock by Collection 2000)

2. As usual I have managed to forget where my jewellery is from. I'm tempted to say this ring is from Topshop, but I'm really not sure if it is. Oh dear. It is definitely from a high street store!

3. Nipped back into the Tate Liverpool this week when I was in the city having lunch to take some photos (one of Warhol's Campbell's soup range pictured).

4. Can't stop wearing my H&M shoes!

5. Rosemary skinny fries with garlic mayonnaise dip at GBK. Nom nom.

Concoctions


[Shoes - H&M, Blouse - Primark, Cardigan - H&M]

Just a casual outfit today (though this Primark blouse, bought a while back, is one of my favourite items to throw on for any occasion) worn for lunch with the boy. I picked up these H&M shoes in January, and I'm glad I finally got round to blogging about them because I'm pretty sure I'll be living in them this Spring! They're a perfect "wear with everything" shoe & I love that they're a masculiney-creepery-broguey concoction.

I hope you all have a beautiful weekend! :)

Necklaces & Cakes & Carling Cups


[Leggings - H&M, Studded Jumper Dress - Primark, Necklace - Unknown (I've a terrible memory, sorry!)]

I wore this simple, almost all black, outfit a couple of days ago to go for lunch and do some shopping with the boyfriend. The cake pictured was pretty much heaven on a plate, with possibly the best chocolate mousse filling I've ever eaten. I did feel slightly sick after I finished it, but it was worth it! I love this necklace that I wore, but cannot for the life of me remember where I bought it. I'm thinking it might have been Dorothy Perkins, but maybe it was Topshop... I really have no idea (at least on clothing items the label will always hold a clue)!

On a completely unrelated note, anyone who follows me on twitter or tumblr might know that I am a big Liverpool Football Club fan, and yesterday they won the Carling Cup trophy. My boyfriend, brother and I watched the game together and went insane when we won, so happy!

Ready To Pounce

[Bag - Urban Outfitters]

I came across this bag in the sale section of Urban Outfitters last month, reduced from £36 to just £5 & even though I wasn't totally sure if I liked it whilst it was hanging up in the store, I also felt that I couldn't leave without it... And I am so glad that I didn't!

It is now my favourite bag-of-the-moment. The bag that fits in all of my "essentials" (you know - three different lip balms, two packs of tissues, random spare camera batteries, that book you'll never get a chance to read, a million old receipts... Haha), and is completely practical, but also has a lounging leopard, staring down her prey stitched onto it... Amazing. As you can probably tell, I really am attached to this bag and will be very sad if it ever breaks!

What is your favourite bag that you own right now? :)
