Channelling Chanel with leather accessories

(Photgraphy by Will Epps, check out his online portfolio here)

So, I wasn't intentionally channelling Chanel but when I saw the last photo I couldn't help but draw comparisons to their S/S 10 collection with clogs and a barn... The only differences are these shoes are from Office (again, I know...) not Chanel, they're not technically clogs and I'm not in the most fashionable barn in the World.

But anyway, back to the rest of the outfit, this wasn't really an outfit suitable to post, more just something to wear to show off the leather accessories, but it is made up of my Charity Shop cut off shorts and a black trapeze cut top from New Look Kids section, that place is a bit amazing at the moment.

The bag is one of my absolute favourite accessories, yet I never use it because I never really know what to put it with. It was from a teeny, slightly weird shop on Portobello Road in London.

Once again, these photos are taken by the lovely and very talented Will, check out his online portfolio here.

P.S. I'm flying home tomorrow, yay! I'm in Singapore at the moment, I've just had Singapore Slings in Raffles Hotel and thrown peanuts on the floor, a fitting end to they holiday I think you'll agree. I'll be back to normal blogging in a couple of days and I PROMISE to reply to all your comments and emails, it may take some time...

Ripping up big jumpers

 (Photography by Will Epps, check out his online portfolio here)

This outfit is very simple, seeing as it only consists of a big jumper and heels...

I love the colour of the jumper, it's like a big hairy, hessian type affair but it's surprisingly soft. When I bought it, from a Charity Shop, it had a really high neckline which I was not a fan of so I cut it off and shredded the neck creating ladders and a bit of a shredded effect.

The shoes are from Office (I think all of my outfit posts have had Office shoes in them so far, I'm not sponsored by them or anything, they just keep making awesome shoes!) and are my variation on the clog trend even though I bought them ages ago... I don't think me and clogs would get on sadly.

I love this little pond and bridge where we shot these pictures, it's a little bit idyllic and I can imagine going there over summer with BBQs and cider, I'm so looking forward to Summer!

I had a delightful time in London yesterday, there will be a few posts coming up about my adventures... Hope everyone is having a lovely, sunny weekend!
