I feel like I've neglected my blog a little lately as in the past week I've moved away for University! I've moved to Huddersfield and I'm really enjoying the university experience so far. It's been overwhelming but i've only been here just under 2 weeks and it's flown by! So I thought i'd put together a university style wishlist! Especially because in the next few weeks their will be 20% off student discount offers at all our favourite high-street stores!
So University for me is all about being stylish but comfortable. I don't think I'll ever understand why there's girls which turn up to lectures in 5 inch heels? I feel like I can never be separated from my trusty white converse at the moment. Especially since starting university again they are literally the only shoes on my feet!
So first on the list is this Black Cami Top. Black cami's are literally the ultimate style essential. You can wear them during the day but also so easily for a night-time look too. I love the detailing on this one too! During the day this would look great with blue ripped jeans (like these Topshop ones) and a pair of these black ankle boots!
A faux leather biker jacket like this one is another style essential. This is the sort of jacket you can wear day in, day out all year round. It's a great investment piece and will no doubt last you a couple of years! Ripped jeans are a massive trend this season and these blue ripped jeans from Topshop are an absolute must! They'll go with everything and you can wear them on a night out with a black cami top and heels for a perfect but chilled night-time look.
Last but not least I think a style essential this season is to dig out your old tartan shirt (or buy this shiny new pretty one) to last you this Autumn/Winter. You can wear tartan shirts in so many ways but I think they look extra good unbuttoned with a white t-shirt underneath with black skinny jeans and a leather jacket on top!
What do you think of my university style essentials? What are your style essentials at the moment?

I seem to be getting more and more into just wearing black and white! I'm really into very simple dressing at the moment. Recently on a trip to The Trafford Centre with one of my best friends Sam I picked up these jeans and they've literally not been off my back since! I'm normally a joni jeans lover but I really wanted some jeans with rips in and they only had jamie jeans which had rips in!

So I thought why not try a new style of jeans? and I'M IN LOVE! Jamie jeans are so comfortable and easy to wear! I love how they're high-waisted too and so soft! What's great about these jeans is you can wear them during the day but also with a pair of heels they make a perfect night time look too! I absolutely love this outfit and I can't wait to wear it during the day (with trainers) and at night with a bold red lip and some patterned heels!
What do you think of these jeans? Are you loving Topshop lately?
I seem to be a little bit obsessed with co-ordinates at the moment. I absolutely loved this sunflower co-ord so I was super happy to add this two piece to my wardrobe! I always here good things about Inthestyle online. I've never bought anything from there before but I've loved the 'In The Style by Lauren Pope' ranges!
I love the fit of this two piece. I think this is a great outfit for a night out and it's currently in the sale too! I think with court shoes or just a nice pair of white shoes this outfit looks really good. I think with a bright lipstick and a white/black crop top and you're all set for a night out on the town!
The great bit about two pieces is you can wear them separately too! I think this jacket would look great with a black cami top and jeans for a casual day look!
What do you think of this outfit? How would you war this co-ord?
It genuinely feels like forever since I last shot outfit photos! This gorgeous co-ord came in the post while I was away in New Zealand and Australia. If you missed what I got up to in New Zealand here's a couple of posts for you to have a look at here, here and here!
I absolutely love the shape of this co-od. I think the shorts and top goes so well together! I've loved wearing this top on it's own or with my new black ripped skinny jeans from Topshop! It also looks good with high-waisted shorts or a skirt.
Lilylulu fashion is an online store I'd never really heard of before but they have so many gorgeous pieces online. It's definitely worth having a look online!
What do you think of co-ord's? Have you been wearing them this season?
I've currently started packing my things as I'm moving away to University again! I'm so excited to start my new course and I'm already thinking about my autumn/winter wardrobe, especially because it's a little chilly where I'm going so I'm thinking about practical warm things but also a bit stylish too! My current bag is falling apart and I've got my eye on this one from Marc B as it's so big and looks perfect for when you have to carry loads of things around! I haven't got as many nice tops as I thought I did and I'm looking for the type which you can easily throw on with a pair of jeans and converse like this one and I loved this feather print top from Miss Selfridge! Because it's September now it's time to start looking for knitwear. I've currently got my eye on this one from Topshop!
What do you think of these picks? What would you add to your wishlist?
It feels so strange writing one of these posts again. I'm a little bit behind with them but i'm determined to get back into the swing of things! One things for sure that the shops at the moment are stuck in that 'in-between' phase. You know where it's not quiet summer still but it's going into spring so it's hard to figure out what you should be buying!
I'm loving this Tropical Jumpsuit at the moment! I think it'd look amazing with a pair of chelsea boots and a leather jacket! One thing I seriously love is a striped t-shirt. You can never go wrong with them as they go with pretty much any outfit for a chic and effortless look. One thing I really want to invest in this season is a good pair of boots, a nice checkered shirt and a pair of ripped jeans!
Which items would you buy? What's on your current wishlist?
This past few weeks I've been so tired from travelling and been visiting lots of places I haven't had much time to blog! But now i'm back in UK again and have lots of stories from my trip to the other side of the world to share with you all! At the start of this week I left New Zealand and went to go and stay with one of my favourite blogger girlies Kim! I had the best few days staying in Australia with her and here's one of the outfits I wore!
I really loved this outfit and it felt so summery! It wasn't that warm in Australia but it was sunny! Kim took these outfit photos for me on the rooftop of where her flat is and it's an absolutely beautiful view!
I wore this outfit with a leather jacket for a casual but well put together look. I picked this skirt up for about $40 (which is about £18) while I was with Kim in Sydney! I fell in love with it and all I want to do is wear it everyday at the moment as I feel so feminine in it and girly!
I think this is a great outfit for all year round as you can pop on a leather jacket to stay warm! I teamed this outfit with my favourite red lipstick from MAC which is Russian Red. I really love this outfit combination and will definitely be wearing it a lot more! I think this skirt will look great with a white crop top or if it's really cold an oversized black jumper!
What do you think of this outfit? How would you wear this skirt?
I didn't think I'd love this jumpsuit as much as I do. When I saw it online I fell in love with the pattern but I wasn't sure whether it was suit me! As soon as It arrived at my door I didn't want to take it off. This jumpsuit is quite possibly my comfiest jumpsuit I own! I've been interning over here in New Zealand for the past few weeks at a marketing agency and I've worn this for a few days and it's got lots of compliments in the office!
It's so comfy and actually really warm too. It's not that warm in New Zealand at the moment and this has kept me warm through-out the day! I've been wearing this jumpsuit with Birkenstocks (Like these from Topshop!) and with ankle boots. I think for a great summer feel this jumpsuit looks amazing with white shoes!

Bloggings been a bit of struggle this past couple of weeks. I've taken up jogging since I've been here in New Zealand and did 5km runs everyday but about 2 weeks ago I sprained my ankle! I was in a lot of pain and managed to have sprained my left foot in two places. It was a struggle to walk for a while but today was the first day I've not worn the bandage and I thought why not take some outfit photos!

This floral twosie is a current favourite of mine from Boohoo. It's such a great print for summer! I love how with two pieces you can wear the top by itself or bottom half by itself too. I'd wear this top with high-waisted trousers or jeans and a pair of converse for a casual look. I think this skort looks amazing with heels and just a simple white blouse for a night out! What's so good about this two piece is it's only £15!
Despite it only being morning in the UK. It's 11pm at night here in New Zealand and my birthday is pretty much over! (sad times!) but today I turned 20! Feels so strange saying it and no longer being a teenager anymore! I've had such a lovely day and I thought I'd show you all the outfit I wore! The photo's from above were from today but the photos below are from the weekend! I have sprained my ankle in two places from all my running along the beach (owh!) and so I might not be able to take many outfit posts for a few weeks (boo) as I'm in a lot of pain!
I wore this outfit on Saturday as it was super sunny and thought it would be a great time to take some outfit shots on the beach! I absolutely love this playsuit. I think the pattern is beautiful and so easy to wear and really on trend right now. (Who doesn't love a leaf print?!) I've teamed it up with my favourite red lipstick from MAC and my favourite sandals from Topshop!
I really like this outfit and think this is a great summery outfit! I teamed it up with tights and black boots today as it's a little colder and I have an ankle bandage on my leg (ouch!) but this playsuit looked amazing both for a more summery day and for a colder summery day!
It may be my birthday still in the UK but right now I need some sleep as I have another busy day interning tomorrow!
What do you think of this outfit? How would you wear this playsuit?
