    Leather Jacket Quiz Clothing | Dress C/O Rare London | Necklace Claire’s Accessories | Barely there Heels New Look

    Now we all know that I like to play dress up, right? So of course when you are given a pick to choose a dress you know I’m not going to go for your average dress, yep! So when it came to picking a dress with Rare London this limited edition Dogtooth Monochrome dress was top of my list. Not only is the black & white trend so bang on for AW14/15 it had a pretty organza skirt overlay that just made me feel so girly.

    It retails at £56 on the website, sadly there was a small nick in the dress on one of the seams but it will be easily fixed by Mr C’s Grandma’s sewing skills. I did advise Rare London on this so hopefully they will be vigorously checking their orders like the little good eggs they are! They even offered to replace it but I’d prefer them to save them for their paying clients (Because I’m as good little egg too!)

    I got this in a size 12 to accompany my ever growing bust, however, I was pleasantly surprised that there was quite a bit of room to fit even more breast in so I may have got away with ordering a size 10 but I always like to act on the side of caution when getting something off the world wide web.

    I teamed it with my black leather jacket from Quiz and my barely there heels from New Look which an absolute staple for me (comfy and on trend – what more could a girl ask for?) It kind’ve felt like I had just rewound back to the 1950’s and stepped on set for Grease the Movie!

    I also created a ponytail with a wrap around to give this outfit a more edgy appeal. I had to stop myself from going Lily Allen-esque and rocking my fluorescent pink Nikes!

    How would you have rocked this look? A similar way or completely different? Let me know in the comments below!

    Jumper Zara | Bag Charity Shop | Leggings Primark | Trainers Nike Dunks from eBay

    If there is something that is always present on the style scene it’s the Sports Luxe & Street Style phenomens. Sports Luxe is that structured appeal mixed with the freshest sports brands thrown in to the mix and Street Style just screams ‘’out there’’ whoever rocks this style they are not afraid to completely push the boundaries.

    I thought, ‘’Hey, why not mash up the two for my next blog post?’’  so I set to it.

    My jumper is a classic cable knit jumper from Zara which I found on eBay for only 99p! I can see this being worn alot during the winter months because it is just so cosy and pretty much goes with anything. How perfect?

    I’ve had my Nike Dunks at the back of my wardrobe for a while, initially bought from eBay for Leeds Fest 2013 we battled a humongous amount of mud that year so there was no way that I wanted to ruin these classic pieces of footwear. I see kids wearing them all the time & wonder if my 24 year old self is maybe a little bit too old for them, however, I think I’ve managed to get the look right without looking like a 12 year old in the process.

    Of course my outfit is never complete without finding a little gem of a bargain and that has to be my little mustard yellow bag that I found in a local charity shop for £2.

    I’m frantically keeping up to date with #LFW tweets and posts this weekend, just wishing I could be there. I couldn’t believe it when an invite arrived in my inbox last week but sadly I just did not have the time, nor money, to get myself down to London at such short notice. Fingers crossed next year I get another and I can be joining all the fashionistas then?

    Have you been to London Fashion Week this year? If so, what have been your favourite shows and best street style looks?
