November 2012 - Warm and The Wild

Jumper - Lavish Alice* | Skirt - Primark | Pumps - Keds | Wooly Hat - Topshop

Just a quick post with this weeks Lavish Alice guest blogger pick, I have had my eye on this jumper for so long now I kept spotting it on various blogs and thought I need that jumper! I love the shape as it is not to fitted but not overly over sized so it is really comfy to wear, the cross detailing is really cool too and I love that there are both silver and gold coloured crosses so you can wear it with either - i.e my silver pleather skirt!

I decided to wear my new purple Keds which I have had for about 2 months now (they look so bright aha), they kept falling out my wardrobe screaming for me to wear them but sadly my boots won every time. However yesterday I was in an anti boots mood and thought I'd give the Keds a turn. Every girl has that 'I fancy wearing trainers kind of day', right?! Sadly I should of gone with the boots as my feet were soaking by the time I got home from London, Doh bad move Kirsty! I can safely say that the Keds no longer look so new and bright :\

Yesterday was suppose to be a very productive day sourcing all material and beads etc.. for my pre collection deadline at uni. However it just turned out to be a complete disaster and it didn't help that London was so miserable, wet and grey! I hate going into Central when the weather is so moody. I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend, eeeee only 1 month till Christmas!!!

This is my second week working along side Lavish Alice as their guest blogger for the month. Another one of my winter favourites from Lavish Alice's online boutique is this gorgeous red velvet cut out dress, which I think is prefect for the festive weeks ahead. I am wearing it really casually here with just my boyfriends denim jacket (which on me is oversized and I love), my tartan scarf and flat form boots. Oh and I decided to opt for these star tights ad thought it would be a change from wearing just my usual plain black ones. This is a favourite look for me, as I love layering up my clothes and pairing cute dresses with boyish oversize jackets/cardigans. Ha my boyfriend thinks I am a little weird because I choose to wear his clothes - but I recon he loves it really ;) I think this dress is really lovely and I feel so warm and Christmas when its on, I cannot wait to wear it over Christmas time! xo

Bag - Next | Parka, Boots - ASOS | Hat - Topshop | Midi Dress - Lavish Alice *

ee so excited to share with you that I am this months Guest Blogger for Lavish Alice - so over the next few weeks I'll be blogging my favourite Lavish Alice A/W must haves (which are available online) :)

First off is this gorgeous Black Knitted Midi Dress which also comes in Purple and a Reddish wine colour. I have been after the perfect midi for a while now but could just never find the right one, I have seen loads of printed Midi's which are gorgeous but I knew that I wouldn't be brave enough to wear such a bold print for just a day time look. But this Lavish Alice Midi is perfect! I love the fact that it is knitted and not just bodycon jersey which most of them are, I also love that even though this Midi is plain black it has this lovely spec of glitter/sequin which gives it that extra detail which I think is really nice. I know that I will be styling this dress in so many ways it is just so easy to wear and surprisingly really comfortable. I have already planned to glam it up and wear on my next night out aha, gahh I think I'm addicted to the Midi trend, I need more!

Dress - Chi Chi * | Boots - Topshop | Ring - Aldo

Gahh feel like I haven't blogged an outfit in forever ( and I also feel like I say exactly this every time I go to blog recently - I do apologise). This weekend I am at my mums in Ashford so I thought I use the opportunity to have a break from uni work and of course the opportunity to blog.

It was my step dad's birthday last week, so last night me and my family all headed out for a catch up/birthday dinner which was really nice. I decided that I wanted to wear something a little dressy and remembered I was sent this gorgeous dress a couple of weeks ago from Chi Chi which would be perfect. I love this dress so much - the whole peplum style I find so comfortable to wear, and the vintage looking gold and black pattern I think gives it that something extra making it quite unique and bold statement piece to wear. I was actually really surprised at how versatile this dress is I thought it would be quite hard to dress down a little as it is quite a statement number, however teaming it with just my black ambush Topshop boots gives it an instant much more relaxed/slightly casual feel, chuck on a leather jacket and away you go (oh god I am cringe). Ok so can tell I love with my Chi Chi dress, it is definitely a winner in the wardrobe for this Christmas! If you are like me and had never heard of Chi Chi before now then definitely check out there online boutique they have some gorgeous dresses perfect for the Christmas period.
