Outfit: Last of the Summer

21st October, 2011

Last of the Summer Outfit

top: H&M, cardigan: G2000, shorts: Mango, belt: Whistles, shoes: Jones, necklace: Accessorize, bracelets: Accessorize, H&M, bag: Warehouse

Wow do I miss summer. Actually, this year I also missed summer, because the only sustained good weather I experienced was during my finals, which was for the majority spent at a desk in a room with the curtains drawn. So I made the most of the good weather a few weeks back to wear all those gorgeous summer clothes that spent far too long in the cupboard this year.

I love mixing prints. It can be tricky but just play around with it until it works for you. These two prints go so well together, it’s like a summers day and night in one! These Jones boots are one of my favourite buys ever. I wear them in winter with jeans and knit tights, and then again in summer with denim shorts and flimsy dresses. They’ve also got the perfect heel hight – I am only slightly taller than Callum with these on 😉

Armour Rings

Armour Rings

1: Topshop rhinestone ring

2: ASOS cut-out articulated ring

3: Low Luv gold-plated ring

4: Vivienne Westwood ring

There’s nothing like an armour ring to toughen up a look and inject a bit of cool into any outfit. I’m a bit lax about rings – they’re not always very practical and for me, no matter how amazing something looks, if its a pain in the ass to wear then I don’t wanna know. But with the bend in the middle, these armour rings are actually pretty comfortable. Vivienne Westwood’s ones are the cream of the crop, but the cheaper alternatives from Topshop, ASOS and Low Luv will still look hot on your fingers.

Glacial Photoshoot for Glacial Weather

Glacial Shoot by Sandro Babler

It’s like the middle of the Arctic Ocean here at the moment! Earlier this week I was wearing shorts, and then the last few days I’ve been wrapping my poor, trembling body up in faux fur, hoodies and leather. It’s seriously glacial here.

… Well, ok, that might be a bit of an exaggeration but I swear it feels like it sometimes! So as the icy days come rolling in, here’s a beautiful Sandro Bäbler shoot shot at a Switzerland ice stream to match the weather.

This glacial beauty of a shoot gives off a sense of strength with a hidden vulnerability. I love fashion shoots which are evocative and emotive, even if the clothes aren’t always the main focus. It makes me feel something, gives me an indication of how a brand’s clothes will empower or change me.

Seeing Pink

2: Halston Heritage Gabardine Trench

3: McQ Ankle-Zip Cotton-Blend Pants

4: Alexander mcqueen shoes PINK

5: Proenza Schouler PS1 Medium Suede – Antique Pink

I did an outfit post the other week to show my support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October). Well, a girl can never have too much pink, so I thought I’d get together a little pink-spiration of my favourite pink items. It’s not a colour I wear a lot of, I’ll be honest, but it works when used for a pop of colour or with layering of pink tones. Plus, it’s an awesome cause so GET ON IT PEOPLE! Pink it up!
