Gold textures.


Textured white t-shirt — charity shop.
Patterned black and white trousers - Charity shop/DIY.
Black plastic jelly sandals - JUJU.
Black 'city' bag - Zara.
Chain - Topshop.


Nothing I quite love more than a statement necklace and plain t combination, this plain textured white t just makes any outfit with it's simplistic box fit and its short sleeve which really flatter's my top heavy figure which is usually very unlikely for the dreaded colour white. I found this peaking behind a sale rail in a charity shop just under six months ago now, even though it's only in a size fourteen as it's originally from Bomarche which is caterer to more mature women it's a perfect fit and very true to size.

Next on to the much loved trousers and the statement piece in the outfit, which were originally were a size 32 pair of full length trousers but for the cheap £1.25 price tag I decided to pop them in my basket and try and find a way for them to work. I simply had to take the elastic from the waist band and half this, which was quite simple, (DIY SOON) I find these trousers flattering as the length sits just above my ankle and makes my 25' inch legs look slightly longer. These fit both the monochrome and tribal print of this season and could easily transcend in to winter with some brogues, a long shirt and some wacky socks, after all I do like to clash.

These shoes really do speak for their self being 5'7 i'm rather tall and being a size 14-16 I can risk looking a little 'butch' in heels, so I tend to stick to flat-forms so this 1/2 inch heel is perfect to slender my legs, i've recently purchased the fishermen JUJU'S which are the lowest heel of the collection which seem to have replaced any of my other shoes.

Finally the accessories
The bag was a present from Blake just a few months ago which is the very much loved 'blogger' bag which is the Zara City bag, it fit's absolutely everything and the kitchen sink and add's a slightly more classy approach to my sum what put together outfits with it's faux Saffiano and stylish box shape.
Next up is the mr T esque chain which was a bargain in the very loved Topshop jewellery sale a few seasons ago, perfect two tone gold texture against my bold white t shirt this is the perfect day to evening outfit.

Ps, my outfits will include more full length photographs and more shots however due to starting this blog late in the evening I wanted to add a pre shot outfit post.
