Winter Wardrobe Favourites

Hey everyone!

January is almost over (which I can't quite believe...) and I figured I ought to write something a little more upbeat after my previous depressing driving post... so the chilly weather prompted me to talk about (and show you) a few winter favourites in my wardrobe at the minute (excuse the posey piccies)...






Dr. Martens - Schuh
Coat - Topshop
Scarf - Topshop
Skirt - Primark
Gloves - New Look
Bag - Next

My ultimate winter favourite so far has to be my beautiful pastel pink Dr. Martens... I have searched for a pair of these boots to be in my size for SO long! I searched and searched and searched and was just having no luck; my size was continually 'out of stock'. Anyhow, me being me on Christmas day, browsed through the many sales online, and to my surprise, found one pair, in my size in the SALE on the Schuh website! I couldn't quite believe my luck and ordered them immediately. I LOVE THEM! Don't get me wrong, they did take some breaking in... but the pain is well worth it. They are so comfy now! I'd usually be a shoe size 6, but my friend, Ella, advised me to go a size smaller and I have no regrets and still manage to wear the beauties with a pair of thick snuggly socks. I never actually used to like Dr. Martens, however when I saw them in pastel colours with ribbons I was completely sold. Despite the fact I feel like I'm giving my legs a bit of a work out when I'm wearing them (haha) I think they act as a cute statement to any outfit.

I've enjoyed pairing my pink docs with my gorgeous Topshop coat I received for Christmas. I asked for this coat in a size up as I wanted it to be extra roomy and oversized. I feel it's the perfect length now; keeping me nice and toasty in this cold winter season! Whenever I wear it, I feel a bit like a giant lilac sheep as the coat seems to mimic that lovely woolly texture.

I absolutely love the colour combo of baby pink and lilac, and look forward to mix and matching my docs with many other outfits...

Hope you liked this post and are all wrapping up warm this winter!

Speak soon,

Alex

Choker Love

Hey Everyone! After settling back at sixth form, I came to notice the 'choker' craze going on. I suddenly saw so many girls wearing the same elasticated black choker around their necks. Despite the choker looking great on these girls, I wasn't particularly drawn to this 'edgy' look for me, therefore I was determined to find the perfect 'girly' choker. So I was having a casual browse around the jewellery stands in Topshop and such a pretty pearly cream flower choker with red/orange gem detail caught my eye... Initially, I thought they may clash with my hair, however I couldn't resist! It has definitely been my September stable and I will certainly be keeping an eye out for more. Cream Flower and Filigree Choker - Topshop £12.50 I love it! Speak soon, Alex x

The Important Lessons I've Learnt Through Learning to Drive

Hey Everyone! Before I begin this post, I would advise you to read my previous 'Learning to Drive: A Demoralizing Burden?' post to get an idea of how much of a 'demoralizing burden' that I thought driving really was. HOWEVER... After what has seemed like a very long roller coaster of a driving journey, I can finally say that I have passed my test, and it really is about blooming time too! Cheeky 'I've just passed my driving test' selfie with my lil' bro... Don't ask about the 'Despicable Me' keyrings... In fact, I tell a slight porky... I actually passed my driving test at the end of April... but driving around in lil' Pepper (mine and my sister's Peugeot 107) really has made me realise that it's when you've passed your test that you REALLY learn how to drive, therefore I thought I'd share my experiences with you all, Since being insured, I've had a couple of small bumps in the car which have scared t...

Sassy Trackies

Hey Everyone! Firstly, I'd like to apologise for my lack of posts recently... I seem to have gotten extremely busy what with A levels (sigh) and what not. However, it's now half term and I finally have time to write a post for you (or maybe I'm just procrastinating from the revision which I really SHOULD be doing... but... hey ho). Anyway, BACK TO THE POINT; through the past spring-time months, I've been out and about for friends' birthdays, celebrating the last days of school life (feel like such an oldie) and just generally having a good time to try and free myself from the pressure of A levels. This has led me to buy numerous new clothing items to wear on a night out... and I feel one of my favourite items has to be my Topshop 'sassy trackies'... Necklace - New Look Top - H&M Bag - River Island 'Sassy Trackies' - Topshop Shoes -  New Look Watch - Debenhams     Although I say so myself, I do love this outfit......
