Time to invest in a Winter coat

I'm off to London at the end of the month and I wanted a winter coat that was warm but would also look nice and go with whatever outfits I decided to take on the trip. I've wanted a shearling look-alike biker coat since seeing this amazing outfit on Pinterest and I finally decided to treat myself.

The hunt began and ended in Topshop after stumbling across this beauty. I wanted an oversized style and after initially trying on the size 12 I decided to go all out and pick up the 14. The coat isn't as thick as you might expect but it is fluffy on the inside and if you size up there will be plenty of room to wear a jumper beneath on those really cold winter days. 

The suede effect is so cosy, soft and of course cruelty free! I spotted a similar version in Warehouse that was a leather effect but I decided to go with something different from the biker I already have.

I'm so happy with the purchase and I'm excited to try styling it in different ways!

OOTD... Autumn sun

I'm still loving this pleated skirt that I bought last winter and I'm excited to try styling it in different ways. However today I was my typical self and I went for all black everything except for my pink hightops that I wear constantly!

I'm excited that my hair is getting longer now and I can finally put a cheeky braid in the front which is disguising the ugly mullet fringe that's going on. Can't wait to be able to tie it up again!

I've just invested in an amazing new winter coat so keep an eye out for my post showing it off!

Winter layering OOTD

Before I shaved my hair off I invested in two new wigs, a blonde one and this dark brown one. It's so beautiful and it also kept my head super warm on this cold day!
Because of the cold I decided to really layer up and so I stole one of my boyfriend's chunky jumpers and of course wore my bomber jacket.

Also I think that this is the third time I've worn this Forever 21 khaki shirt in a blog post, so it's safe to say that I've gotten my moneys worth!

Wardrobe staple... The denim shirt

I've been on the hunt for a denim shirt for quite some time now and I was finally coming around to the idea of spending £30 on a Topshop one when I stumbled across this beauty from Primark! For £10 it was a steal and I've already got plenty of wear out of it.
I wanted to get these photo's outside of the pretty colourful houses but the fear of someone opening their front door to me stumbling around in heels was too off putting.

I've been rather uninspired with my art lately so I'm going to try accompanying each post with an illustration in an attempt to restart my creativity.

I'm also working on redesigning the blog so hopefully I will be more inspired here too!

Zara camel coat

 I'm pretty psyched to have found my perfect winter coat this year, although my twenty minute deliberation in Zara would say otherwise.
I'm a very indecisive person and the thought of spending £80 without much mulling over is quite scary. Nevertheless, as the shops imminent closure was looming and I was continually reminded by tired staff over the tannoy, I grabbed the jacket and rushed to the till.
The next day when I put on my new purchase I felt no regret. The coat is a really high quality, structured, beautiful and most importantly warm!
The only downside is that the bottom flaps up in the wind, so I wish there was another button to secure it (if only I had some cotton and thread!). Today was a very windy day so that was nicely demonstrated in these photo's.
