Tartan Shift Dress

Dress and Coat - Zara

Bag - Topshop

Shoes - Boohoo

5 months on and this dress still remains my favorite garment in my wardrobe. I simply adore it. It's simply so easy to wear all year round and for any occasion; with brogues, a jumper over the top or dressed up with a pair of heels. It's just perfect! I wore this outfit the other day on a venture around London with a friend; Chelsea (the BEST Zara ever. oh my), Chinatown (still in awe at that food), Oxford Street and Carnaby Street. 

P.S. People in Chelsea actually have maids. Like proper, fully dressed maids. (see picture 3) 

Days Are Gone

Coat & Top - Zara

Skirt & Boots - Topshop 

Oh how I'm enjoying autumnal clothing. It's that perfect season where you're able to have great versatility within outfits - you're not restricted due to overwhelming heat or coldness. As i said, perfect. However, not quite so perfect for my bank account... 

This coat has to be one of my favorite buys recently. I love the boyfriend, slight cocoon shape of it and the leather collar which brings in that slight grunge-y edge. Its just a slight infatuation. The skirt is slightly more a-lined than in the picture which produces such a pretty shape. It will be perfect for layering with jumpers and woolly tights in the colder winter months. And the boots....the infatuation returns... 

And what is going on with my hair in the second photo...since when was i ginger?... 

Lots of love, Melissa x
