The LBD | QueenBeady

Coat Topshop | Dress Oh My Love at Topshop | Shoes New Look | Clutch John Lewis | Watch Olivia Burton Watches | Bracelet C/O Links of London

The end of 2014 saw me welcome black in to my wardrobe. No, not the gothic style but more the sophisticated, understated type of black. I’ve always been the type of person who has embraced colour and never shied away from all the bright hues. But, as I’m growing older I felt I needed to accept a little more sophistication in the style area. Getting to 25 seemed to be a difficult one for me, but it saw me take the plunge and cut my hair to a mid bob which was a million miles away from my long tresses pre quarter life century mark. I realised that I am ready to bring an air of class in to what I wear & this dress from the Oh My Love Range from Topshop was going to be one of my first experiments. Have you hit a landmark age & realised you needed to do something drastic?

Feeling a little Blue? | QueenBeady

Top New Look | Trousers New Look | Loafers Aldi | Bracelets Mulberry & C/O Links of London

Sometimes, and I mean sometimes, I just want to rock a super casual look. Pale blue & patterned trousers are possibly two of my favourite looks at the moment and will be firmly coming in to the spring time with me. I tend to go oversized on most of my top garments, purely to cover up the ever growing lumps that I can graciously call my breasts. You laugh, but they can be a pain in the bottom. The loafers are a bargain buy that I found in Aldi (yes, you did hear me right. Aldi.) and they are really comfy. I just adore my bracelets and despite being two different metals, rose gold and silver, respectively, they just add to any outfit. It’s all about the details. Have you picked up any pieces that you were surprised of the quality recently?

Co-Ord Set C/O Blue Vanilla | Knee High Boots New Look | Clutch John Lewis | Watch Olivia Burton | Bracelet C/O Links of London

Sometimes before I put on an outfit I look at it & I automatically pull one of those ‘’distressed emoji’’ faces. You know the ones I’m talking about, right? Will it fit me in the right places? Will I look like an ‘’Oompa Loompa’’? But then, then you put it on and all those fears are completely quashed because you have fallen on to an absolute winner. You also know that feeling, right? This is that outfit. I teamed this fabulous co-ord from Blue Vanilla with my brand new boots from the New Look Sale & clutch from the John Lewis sale, respectively. This is clearly going to be one of those staple, go-to outfits in the blustery, winter months we are having! I hope you are all wrapping up warm & keeping safe in these treacherous winds. I’m very much looking forward to the spring time, are you?

When Your Mini-Me has to Step In | QueenBeady

Top Fred Perry | Jeans C/O DressKode

So, Christmas is a time for friends & family oh and wait a minute… overindulging! So much so that I was recently bulging at the seams trying to fit in to an outfit I wanted to share with you. My wonderful cousin stepped in to my shoes & paraded around in my latest arrival from DressKode & obviously rocked it. The high waisted jeans are super flattering & can pull in any waist (except, maybe not mine!) She teamed it with a pink Fred Perry top which is one of her absolute staple pieces. She was quite taken with these jeans and said that they were surprisingly comfy too. Thank goodness for my mini-me stepping in! Have you overindulged over the festive period too?

Baby, It’s Cold Outside | QueenBeady

Hat F&F at Tesco | Coat F&F at Tesco | Jumper Unknown | Jeans Topshop | Shoes New Look | Bag Zara

I know for a fact when you read that title you most certainly did sing it & do not try and deny it one little bit. With Christmas been & gone at the speed of light we woke up on Boxing Day with a twinkle of snow (well, the rest of England did bar West & North Yorkshire!) so inevitably it was time to wrap up warm for the many colder days we have been promised by the ever delightful weathermen!

I have lusted over my bobble hat & pale blue duster coat for many months but just never found myself buying either for one reason another but after heading to a local Tesco’s with my Mama we found ourselves scouring the Sale Rails before Christmas had already been. I noticed that the F&F coat was half price & we managed to pick it up at a bargain price of £25. Mama of course, took this home and wrapped it up for Santa to bring to me on Christmas morning.

As the Winter months have set in, my body temperature has certainly taken a dip so I have found myself topping up on those big fluffy jumpers, you know, the ones that make you look like a Yeti/Polar Bear/Grizzly Bear! No-one can deny though that they are super cosy & somehow manage to look good. They are perfect for teaming with any pair of jeans, chinos, skirts and more. It’s all about layering.

Did you manage to pick up any treats in this years sales? I have been very naughty & purchased a few bits here and there, I can’t wait to share them with you.
