From Left To Right:

Thanks for reading, let me know what you think of this selection of coats. Which do you like best?

How I'd Style: Pinafores




 Hello Everyone!

Today I shall be showing you how I'd style 4 different pinafores. I'll be showing you how I'd style a denim one, a black one and 2 patterned ones. Unfortunately I do not own all of these pinafores but hopefully in time I could maybe add some similar ones to my wardrobe. I created these looks using Polyvore so some of the pieces I've used are high end, however this was unintentional and you could easily find something similar on the high street.
The first look I've created has quite a grungy edge to it and it features this beautiful denim pinafore dress from Miss Selfridge. This denim pinafore dress has PU leather straps, so to compliment this I decided to pair it with a mesh crop top from Topshop. I then added a pair of black flat form shoes and a black leather back pack which heightens the grungy vibe and makes for a cool and edgy outfit. A pair of round black sunglasses and a vampy lip would definitely help to set this outfit off.

 

The second outfit is so me! I already have a pinafore and shirt exactly like this so I already know I'd wear this combination for sure. This outfit keeps up with the recent monochrome trend, however the gold accessories and red lipstick help to break it up and make it that little bit less predictable. The black pinafore itself is quite dressy but the bowler hat, flatforms and backpack help to tone it down a bit and give it more of a daytime look.
 
 
 
Look 3 features a floral print which is very popular for Spring / Summer 2013 and that is the daisy print. This outfit is really girly, really cute and is super wearable. This pinafore is currently in the New Look Sale for £9 so if you want it, you better get it fast!

Look 4 features another beautiful printed pinafore which I believe is also from New Look. This outfit has a cute, vintage-esque vibe to it and is just too adorable for words. I think this outfit would be perfect for a picnic, a bike ride, a walk round the woods or just any outdoor activity! It's fun, girly and quite practical at the same time.

So that's it for my post today. Hopefully this has either inspired you with how you could wear a pinafore, or maybe even encouraged you to purchase one if you haven't already! I personally love all these outfits I've created and would happily wear them all if I could only afford to buy all the items!

Let me know what you think of this post in the comments, I'd love to hear what you have to say.

Hope you're all well.

Hello Readers!

Today's post is yet another outfit of the day. I'm really into these at the minute so I hope you don't mind my blog being really fashion heavy at this moment in time. Today I went into college to get my final grades, collect my photos and meet up with my friends. I'm over the moon with my grades as I've achieved a Distinction in Graphics and a D*DD in Photography! It's nice to know that I've got the grades if I definitely go ahead with applying for university next year.

Today's outfit wasn't exactly weather appropriate. I decided to wear a pair of shorts that I don't wear often as I'm always unsure how to style them, but it decided to be incredibly overcast and on and off raining. So aside from being a bit cold, I really did like this outfit! Like I said these shorts have been rather neglected so it was nice to get some wear out of them.

I'm just going to throw this in now but I'm really not a massive fan of these pictures I've included. I like my outfit but not so much my disgruntled "hurry up taking my picture, it's cold and windy" face. Also the quality is pretty poor due to my ISO being too high so please excuse that.
