OUTFIT | KNIT, CAMO & BLACK

Jacket: Topshop
Cardigan: Primark
Dress: H&M
Shoes: Topshop (via ebay)
Watch: Michael Kors

Firstly, I apologise for the drizzly background, the weather is just awful today, I hate looking out of the window and seeing this. That aside, I chose quite a layered outfit today which is odd for me; I'm usually the one who's freezing wearing only one or two layers.

This black dress from H&M has a appeared in several of my outfit posts because it literally goes with anything, and can be worn as a dress or a skirt, which is great. I layered a thick knit cardigan and then my trusty camouflage jacket over the top; I really like the light knit shade with the jacket print, I think it's just a bit different than a black cardigan or just the jacket on its own.

I want to know your thoughts on camouflage jackets. I see them a lot, especially around university (saw at least three people wearing the same one today!) but I'm wondering whether it's just a fashion 'phase' or if it'll be a recurring trend like military? Either way I think I'll be wearing mine a lot even if it isn't so 'in' as it seems to be now.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and a great bonfire night last night! :)

NEW | SPIKED COLLARS & LEATHER


First of all, wow black is hard to photograph! I couldn't get a close-up shot of the collar on this shirt if my life depended on it, so you will all just have to use your imagination and visualise the studs...

I've been really loving studs at the moment - hasn't everyone - and when I saw these two shirts in Primark I knew I needed them in my life. The cream shirt is very much a Zara copy just with koalas instead of leopards/dogs/ etc etc. I did initially want one of those shirts but after seeing this for a fraction of the price I thought it will do just the same. The black shirt is just amazing, I saw this and just ran to it. I'll admit, the studs are very cheap looking up close (they are plastic), but from far away I think this shirt looks really nice and much more expensive than what it was. 

I finally got a leather jacket - well, a 'biker jacket' as it is called by the store. I have been looking for a jacket like this for ages but every time I see one, the sleeves are always too short or the fit is awful or something is wrong with it. This jacket however is exactly what I have been wanting; thank you Topshop. Not only does it fit perfectly, but it also feels really great quality and I love the fact it has a fur collar too...it's all about the collars at the moment. The fur does detach which I like because fur doesn't exactly go with everything.
