The Fashion Tag!

These days I'm finding it harder and harder to write posts which aren't going to bore the life out of you and so after a few days of being stuck on what to write for my next post I thought I'd switch it up a little and do a tag post, so I decided on 'the fashion tag' inspired by the beautiful Anna Saccone Joly after I've become obsessed with her blog and youtube channel, which by the waaaaay.. if you haven't read or watched yet, shift your butt because you're missing out on the cutest babies I have EVER seen!

Just a little note - keep an eye out for some new autumn/winter posts coming very very soon, but until then enjoy my edition of the 'fashion tag', here goes..

1. How would you describe your style?

I'd basically say my style changes, I don't have a certain go to style that I adore. One day i'll either be wearing a jumper and some leggings and the next I could be wearing a more smarter outfit strutting round the streets thinking I'm Blair Waldorf, so.. I'd say laid back but also with a hint of Upper East Side style.

2. What are your wardrobe staples?

High waisted jeans, checked shirts, ankle boots, basic tops and a good coat.

3. Most expensive item in your closet?

Probably my 18th birthday dress which I've only ever worn once.. it cost my Mumma a fortune (oops). It was handmade and I just adore everything about it, from the colour to the style to the small detailing!

4. Most wanted item?

I have no words this.. a Chanel 2.55 

5. Favourite designer?

At the moment I loved everything about the Moschino Jeremy Scott's Barbie Collection, especially the mirror phone case!

6. How much do you spend on clothes?

To be honest, I'd love to say not a lot but.. if anybody actually saw my bedroom when I'm trying to find something to wear you'd realize it's actually quite a lot. I have things in my wardrobe still with labels on and still in the packaging, it's quite ridiculous really! I'd probably say around £200 maybe a month around the £300 mark if it's been a good payday haha!

7. What are your favourite places to shop? 

Zara (most definitely), I like to buy most of my clothes from online shops but if I don't manage to find something on there I love Forever 21, Topshop and BANK.

8. Favourite fragrance?

I have a lot, and I mean a lot of different favourites! Narrowing them down it'll have to be, Honey by Marc Jacobs, Daisy by Marc Jacobs, Alien and 'Coconut Passion' by Victoria Secret.

9. What is your favourite way to style your hair?

Either half up/half down or down with some loose waves!

10. What is your go-to outfit when you're stuck on what to wear?

Probably.. a cropped jumper, high waisted jeans and some boots. Perfect for the winter!

11. One fashion trend you wish could back or stay?

'The Twiggy Era' or the 60's, I've seen photos of my Nan from that era and the clothes are so beautiful! Mini skirts, turtle necks, box dresses and beehives, BEAUTIFUL. 

12. Show us your most prized possession in your wardrobe.

My stunningly beautiful coat from Zara, I seriously lost sleep over how much I adored this coat but just couldn't bite the bullet and shell out £100 for it, obviously in the end I caved in and I regret NOTHING, muahahaaha!

Tag me in the post if this has inspired you to do the 'fashion tag'! STAY BEAUTIFUL :)

My Autumn Staples 2014

Hello again beautifuls!

Wellllll guess who's back! This time with my autumn staples for this year. This post was inspired by a recent shopping spree (oopsy) when I went it into Liverpool City Centre with my cousin. I may of slightly ventured into the shops on Church Street and picked up a few things for my a/w wardrobe! eeeepp

My first staple is definitely polar necks. Now, I don't mean the polar necks that are wrinkled around your neck and come up to your chin. I bought this gorgeous ribbed striped top from Forever 21 for a wonder £10.50 & I absolutely love it! It's slightly cropped so I've decided on wearing it like the model >> with some high waist black jeans or maybe a black skater skirt, black tights and a pair of ballet pumps. I think this style of top is going to be huge this season, I mean you can never have enough stripey tops and polar necks in your life can you!? 

If you want this for your a/w wardrobe, get it - Here.

My next staple has got to be a good old sturdy pair of boots! I've been searching the high street for a proper pair that won't break the second I step out the door and also ones that will go with practically everything! I come across these little beauties from New Look, sadly I haven't bought them yet but come my next pay day they'll be mine *cue the evil laugh* 

Now they are plain, but I can definitely see them bringing an outfit together! If you fancy buying them for a delightful £29.99, get them - Here!

Well you're going to need a new bag for the new season, it's only right! I find myself around autumn/winter looking at over-sized slouchy bags to go with my baggy top, skinny jeans and my 'I don't care, I'm cosey' type of look. It's hard to find a bag that you won't get annoyed carrying round which is the case with most bags :( 

Which is why I'm still searching for the perfect one. Don't you worry though, oh no! I've got my eye on what I think is a perfect bag for autumn/winter and that is this b-e-a-utiful tan bag courtesy of River Island! The best thing is, it's only £32, and for me.. that's a bargain! If you're searching for a new bag and want this one, get it - Here!

If you don't own a baggy jumper to help you through the cold months then you're doing this whole thing wrong! Now it is hard to find one that won't irritate you and make you want to pull your birthday suit off which is why I always go for a ribbed knitted jumper that won't make me itch! I've been looking at this one for a few days now and decided that it's definitely one for my winter wardrobe. The color is on point and it would go so effortlessly with a pair of black skinny jeans and those black boots! 

(You'll start to see a theme in my posts that through winter I loves me my black skinnies!)

Where else are you going to find a good quality jumper that won't cost you an arm and a leg, why.. none other than Topshop! Get this jumper Here for £38 :)

Last but not certainly not least, probably my favorite part of an autumn outfit.. a good old dark lipstick to tie it all together! I've currently been loving 'Twig' by MAC (I wrote a review here if you'd like to have a nose) but it's not dark enough for my liking! Last year my favorite lipstick for this season was probably 'The Damned' or 'Inhibition' by Topshop so if I fail to find one that matches those, they'll be getting re-purchased for this year! Now normally I don't really suit berry type of colors and red-ish tones but I'm trying my hardest to step out of my comfort zone but it's definitely proving more difficult than I thought! My mum always says.. 'stick to what you know'.

Let me know your autumn/winter staples below!

Bye now! xxx
