GROWN UP KICKS
coat, trainers + necklace: Topshop | jumper: ASOS | leggings: Boohoo | bag: c/o Next
Because sometimes you just feel like clean lines and simplicity. I’m constantly inspired by sportswear styles for my own outfits – they involve my three favourite Cs: casual, comfortable, chic. I love how easy it is to slip on a pair of sporty leggings and sneaks. You can add pretty much anything on top, though I usually go for an oversized jumper, tee or sweatshirt to keep in with the sporty vibe, and then just grab a backpack as the finishing touch.
Can you believe my backpack is from Next (and only £28)? There’s something about it that just makes it look super expensive. Nude and black are always a winning combination, and this bag is so grown-up and sophisticated (whilst still having just that right amount of edge) that you could wear it with more dressy outfits too. It’d be gorgeous in a workwear look! Next are currently encouraging us ladies to up the ante with their accessories – take a look at the little video they’ve made for more statement accessory inspiration.
Have a great rest of the weekend loves! The sun has managed to peek out from behind the clouds just a little this weekend for us. I hope it’s shining for you too wherever you are 🙂 x
