Limited Edition Laura Ashley Archive Print V-Neck T-Shirt (Uniqlo) / Purple Skinny Jeans (New Look) / Caramel Distressed Leather Wedge Shoes (Clarks Shoes) / Lilac Eiffel Tower Brass Necklace (T-Boo @ Hannah Zakari) / Wood & Coloured Plastic Bangles (Part of Set from New Look).


I am loving this new T-shirt from Uniqlo ........ I love the contrast between the vintage flowers print and the sporty-chic grey marl T-shirt background! The v-neck is really flattering too.........

As this top is all about the contrast, I funked it up with my purple skinny jeans, vintage with an edge !! .........Thought I would give it a rock n roll backdrop too (the spare bedroom is looking more like a music room with the other half's guitars everywhere) !!!

The park after dark

Khaki Stripe T-Shirt (Littlewoods) / Mustard Asymetric Cardigan (La Redoute) / Charcoal Fleece Tulip Skirt (American Apparel) / PF Flyers Nubuck Trainers (Schuh) / Cream Bow Brooch (Asos) / Black Belted Jacket (H&M).


I'm not one of those people that really hate winter, but when you have a dog to walk on a daily basis it gets frustrating going out as it's getting dark....... it's not the most fulfilling experience for either you or the dog!! At least the spring is on it's way.......

So these photos were taken at dusk in the park, my trusty asymetric cardigan making another appearance. The PF Flyers trainers are a great alternative to Converse, and being leather they are practical for our wet winters too!! Comfy as!!

Purple Pleat Front Top (New Look) / Mustard Asymetric Cardigan (La Redoute) / Indigo Skinny Jeans (Tesco) / Grey Wedge Booties (Barratts) / Patterned Scarf (M&S).


Some more photos from my Dublin trip before christmas..... when we visited the Guinness Storehouse !! The view from the Gravity Bar at the very top was amazing..... we could see most of Dublin and we watched dusk fall over the city as we sipped our pints of the black stuff !!

I love this scarf from M&S (their scarves are the nicest out there) and picked out the deep autumnal shades in my top and cardi.

Butterflies in my stomach.........

Butterfly Blouse (Oasis) / Indigo Skinny Jeans (Tesco) / Tan & Cobalt Platform Sandals (French Connection @ Oli) / Enamel Heart Pendant (Primark) / Marble Effect Coloured Bangles (Matalan).


.....What I wore last weekend for a night out with workmates....... a few drinks and a good boogie to an eclectic mix of tunes !!

I forgot to take the photo with my statement clutch on show.... in red patent with gold rivets it finished off the outfit perfectly.... well I was in a rush to get to the pub so you will have to forgive me !! The blouse was a christmas present from the other half, I love the smattering of cute butterflies all over it.

I love wearing a cute blouse/jeans/skyscraper heels combo for a smart-casual look on nights out, it tends to be my default setting!! What's your go-to combination for nights on the town ?
