Making Paisley Print Chic | QueenBeady

Jacket C/O WearAll.com | Shirt Zara (eBay) | Trousers Topshop | Shoes New Look | Rings 770diamonds & Primark

I adore paisley print. People may associate it with Festivals and a summer vibe but I don’t see why you can’t bring it 100mph in to Autumn? For me it’s a delicate print and all the different lines, swirls and mini patterns send me in to a wondrous frenzy because you never know where it will go.

I recently picked up this gorgeous chiffon Zara shirt from eBay & I blagged it as cheap as chips. I was too excited to receive it & I gave it my first outing last week. I have to say I’m always a little cautious with shirts but this one fit just right and I felt fabulous in it.

I teamed with my black leathers because why not? They a super flattering and elongate your legs. What more could you possibly want from a pair of trousers?

My black barely there heels from New Look always manage to complete a look perfectly, probably because they are just so elegant and effortless.

For those cooler nights I would wear a light jacket, purely because I get too hot with anything else. This zip detail waterfall jack from WearAll.com is perfect to just pop on over an outfit and I love the shape to it, it’s so slimming! It really creates that androgynous, tailored style.

Last but not least, where would an outfit be without a little accessorising? I picked up these midi rings from Primark recently and I have found myself wearing them all the time! They complimented the darker, autumnal tones to the outfit.7

I Heart Boucle Jackets | QueenBeady

Boucle Jacket Boohoo Boutique (eBay) | Top New Look (eBay) | Skirt H&M (eBay) | Shoes Primark

Yes. As you guessed it from the title, I love a good boucle jacket & this one is not to be ignored! As you know I spend A LOT of my spare time browsing through eBay trying to find all the trends at a fraction of the price. Some say I am ‘’The Thrifty Shopping Queen’’ and it’s a title I quite like thank you very much.

When I won this jacket for a mere £2.99 (plus postage!) I was more than excited to try it on and wear it out. I love the blue & white porcelain style to it, the jacket is a little different to what you would find on the high street & that is one of the main reasons I love it! I don’t like to wear something that is off the shelf and readily available and if I do I like to give it my own twist.

I paired it with a little crop top and lace cream skirt to keep it quite cute and girly! I love the way my heels completely elongate my legs (Yep, I think I just got a cheeky #ILoveMyselfBecause… hashtag in there!)

All in all this outfit came under £20 and I think it is great for a lovely lunch date or even office wear! The jacket is so versatile and could jazz up any outfit!

How would you style this jacket?

Zebra Print | QueenBeady

Hat eBay | Dress Primark | Shoes Primark

This has to be one of the cutest outfits I have at the moment. Period. As soon as I saw this dress on the sale rail in Primark I just knew I had to have it. The cut out shoulders give it that little extra edge but it’s still playful with the Zebra pattern. Ever the thrifty shopper I picked this up for a mere £5 and have already worn it to the Ella Eyre gig in Leeds last week.

Another steal were these amazing faux snake/crocodile skin pumps that I have seen on Instagram a lot. These are a dupe of Zara’s version but look just the same (albeit the quality may not be as long lasting!), I found them tucked away in a dark corner of the shelf and surprisingly they had a size 5 left. Not only that they were only £5! With that, I swiped them in to my basket and headed straight for the check out. I was not going to miss out on these babies!

My bowler hat is from eBay (China) and only cost about £2 which I think finished this quirky look off perfectly. I can imagine wearing this next year at Leeds Festival because it was just super comfy. To create a winter look I have already paired it with some thick black tights, boucle jacket and my chelsea boots.

I am so happy with these little treats I’ve picked up. Have you managed to get these from Primark recently?

Jumpin’ Jack Flash | QueenBeady

Leather Jacket Quiz | Necklace Topshop | Jumpsuit C/O Wal-G | Heels New Look

When the Wal-G package landed on my doorstep I was ready to get my game face on and style something that is a little bit unusual to what I would normally style. I was sent the pale green jumpsuit, which, in all fairness isn’t something that wouldn’t tend to flatter my rather large bosom nor my hips which subsequently resemble a woman who should have given birth to 100 children by now.

Ever the optimist I set to it by digging out my leather jacket to give it a slightly edgier feel & I must say I was pretty happy with the results. Rather than draw unwanted attention to certain areas of my body it accentuated them which I was most pleased with. Add a pair of barely there heels to create a sophisticated, glamorous look! I accessorised with a thick, chunky necklace from Topshop which completed this look.

The whole ”pyjama” style look is on trend at the moment so it felt great that I could actually rock this look despite my curvaceous figure! I say give it a go, you might be pleasantly surprised with the outcome!
How would you style it?

Swing low, Sweet chariot | QueenBeady

Dress Primark | Shoes Guess (eBay)

This.

This whole outfit is exactly what I have been looking for. You probably won’t believe me but this look cost me a grand total of £25. I know, you are all looking at the screen in awe? Yes, a whole twenty five English, Stirling pounds!

My shoes were a brilliant find on eBay and cost me only £20. They are perfect for sprucing up any outfit. Although the more I wear them, the less I can wear them. So that’s leaves a mere £5 for the dress, which is indeed correct! I picked up this dress in the Primark sale very recently and could not believe my eyes when I saw it hanging there.

I love the outfit because it has a really cute and feminine. I felt fabulous in it, quite sassy as a matter of fact! I will definitely wear this out to dinner next time the husband decides to wine & dine me. Which I do hope is soon as it’s my birthday this month! Wahoo!

Have you picked up any bargains recently that you are particularly proud of? I can’t wait to hear from you!
