So you should 100% take a look for yourself.

An Irish Treat...

After searching through lots of websites I found and Irish Boutique,AWear that sells affordable and fashionable items. My first find was this Black Wetlook Animal Print Peplum Top, which would look classy over skinny jeans/black jeans/leggings and either a pair of classic black heels or wedges or even a statment red wedges costing £55 from the same website or Asos.

This outfit would be perfect for a romantic meal, or a girls night out as it looks sophisticated and costing only £25 it's hard to resist.

The Perfect City Dress...

So today i'm wearing my all time favourite city girl dress, the dress has been cut with a bodycon fit and a classic pencil shape. It's sleek, fitted and comes in 3 classic colours Black, Oxblood and Forest.

Teamed with heels of flats, bare legs or tights this dress is flattering and the perfect legnth for us city girls. It's avaliable from most online shops but i brought my one from Asos, costing £85 it's the perfect addition to have in any girls wardrobe. Please note that this style does comes up slightly smaller than average, so it is advisable that you order a size up. I've found that it goes with anything and is the perfect every day dress, but it still looks glam if you go for a drink or decide to have a night out in the city. It is the perfect city dress.

Love This...

I absoloutly love this dress, it can easily be worn for a night out or a girlie meal. You can buy this dress from a cute online shop, In Love With Fashion. I have it in the black because it's easier to accessorize and will be a timeless piece costing £32. It looks stunning with some black studded boots from Missguided costing £49.99, and a Russian Red Matte lipstick from MAC Cosmetics costing £14.

I'm saving this dress for a special occasion like my birthday next month, although i'm going to wear chelsea boots from Amazon costing £29.99 instead of the studded boots.

The best thing about this dress is it can be teamed with anything, bright heels, lots of jewelry and a statment clutch, and if you really want to add a splash of colour change the lipstick to any colour that matches your skin tone, bright pinks or even a coral. Each time you wear it you'll be creating a new look, so for me this dress is a must have.

London Fasion Week...

To start off London Fashion Week on day 1 my favourite designer Sass & Bide, as they bring in the big names Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn who each took a turn on designers catwalk showing off their show stopping designs. They did so in a wardrobe of almost all white, accents of black and sprinklings of gold and silver. With their bold white background and golden origami decoration, it showed a hint of what was to come.

"It was an exploration of the genders. We were trying to counterbalance the feminine with that masculine strength, We really enjoyed the process of this collection,”explained Sarah-Jane Clarke and Heidi Middleton. Their style is iconic as well as being elegant, the mix of simple statement colours with metallic golds and silvers giving the illusion of an origami finish. They as always stole the show with their beautiful pieces.

Shhh...

Although most girls buy their clothes from the latest websites, boutiques and high street brands, I have a secret to finding the best basic fashion buys for half the prices. Although they sell a wide variety of all products Amazon are amazing at having key pieces. I order a lot of basic items on their which I then customise to suit the latest Fashion trends. For example if your like me I can't stand all these shorts (hotpants) that manage to show most girls bum cheeks. I wanted a pair of denim shorts that were high waisted and that didn't cut off at an uncomfortable length. So after looking around for ages I finally found some I loved from Amazon.

These were perfect for me and so easy to customise. Only costing £14.90 and with a fast delivery I ordered them, and they fitted perfectly. I couldn't wait to start customising them. So I ordered some Brass Studs from Ebay costing £2.99 with £1 postage, they came quickly and were the perfect size of 7mm. After taking about 10 minutes to customise here's the final result...

These are the shorts I customised, the studs were so easy to put on and i've had so many compliments on them that I am making some for friends and family. They can easily be dressed up with heels or dressed down with Blazers. They are the perfect example of a good purchase from Amazon.

Hurry Up PayDay...

I can't wait for next week to come as it's pay day, which means I can finally purchase my fashion jacket and classic coat. I might possibly order all of them to try on then i can choose the best one that suits my figure the most. I shall keep you posted on the items I choose. Hopefully they still have my sizes in stock.

My Second Choice...

My second choice is also a well known high street brand River Island, this coat comes in classic black or a rustic orange which is great if you want a statement coat this winter. It's £55 which isn't expensive for such an elegant item. I love this coat in the classic black as it would be just that a 'classic' to have in your wardrobe for years to come. It's three quarter length sleeves would compliment some long gloves, causing a vintage look. This coat once again can be teamed with almost anything, such as studded boots paired with galaxy leggings or even a pair of jeans and a statement wedge. It makes the perfect coat this winter.

My First Choice...

My first choice is high street brand H&M, well known for their cheap prices and good quality I couldn't help but fall in love with this classic coat. It comes in the above two colours cream and black and retailing at £39.99 it's hard to resist. I love both colours but feel the cream looks more striking on and would be my preferred choice, although it would get dirty quickly, I would just have to make sure I got it cleaned often. The fact this coat is so cheap and would look stunning over almost anything especially some skinny jeans and tanned wedges, or even a pair of leggings and some converse to dress it down. This just shows how versatile it is as it works with almost any outfit, which is what you expect from any winter coat. I love this coat and might have to make it my winter warmer this year.

What Shall I Buy...?

After looking at the different styles of Jackets I shall hopefully be Purchasing one of the three styles next week, and shall share with you which one I've chosen teamed with an outfit I have put together to compliment the jacket. All of these aren't going to be warm enough for our typical English Winter so i've chosen two coats that I'm deciding on. I don't know if it's two early to be buying myself a coat but when I saw both of my choices I instantly fell in Love and can't wait any longer to purchase one. Both will be classic coats so it's just a choice of which one I like better. Hopefully you'll also help me decide...

Glitz it up...

My last version of the two toned army style is this Seqtea Dark Khaki Sleeve jacket. This is perfect for night out as not only will it stand out from the crowd it will look stunning over shiny black disco pants and a pair of classic Chelsea Boots. Another MissGuided purchase at £46.99. This stylish jacket will put you in the spotlight on every occasion. Even though it's not a classic winter Jacket it can still be worn as an ever day item, as you can tone it down with an over sized bag, Jeans, throw on the latest Jumper and large scarf and you have the perfect day outfit with a glamorous twist. This jacket has been worn by Made In Chelsea's Millie Mackintosh, and she looks simply beautiful.

An Alternate Version...

An alternate version to the Military Jacket with Black sleeves is a shorter Jacket with a tweed sleeve which follows the same concept. If your looking for a casual jacket this winter then maybe this shorter and cheaper version is more for you. The simple Rissa Gold Tweed Sleeve Leather Jacket is £49.99 from MissGuided. This jacket is beautifully made and will make a statement as it is a twist on the faux leather jackets out there today. This can be teamed with a large tote bag and studded boots making it a key look this winter. It will make the perfect lightweight jacket for an evening out and will keep you on trend.

Military Jackets...

My First blog is about deciding what coat/ Jacket to get for this the winter...At the moment Military Coats are very much 'In'. Although I favour this style as it's lightweight and on perfect trend. It's a khaki pu sleeve army jacket and drawstring hem and front pockets. The drawstring makes it suitable for all shapes and sizes ranging from a 6 to a 18. It's only £55 from River Island making it affordable without breaking your bank balance. The colour and style of this jacket are a perfect fashion piece this winter as it can easily be accessorised with a pair of skinny black jeans and biker boots, and if you don't think its warm enough for you this winter team it with a classic black scarf and gloves.
