So here is today's outfit ... it was a quick throw together for an early start at work (casual Friday) but it had to be pub/shopping appropriate as I originally planned to head into town when I was done.
I searched high and low in H&M's across the city for these faux leather patch leggings. It became frustrating that whenever I did find them they were all in tiny or huge sizes ... eventually my search paid off and I found them hidden in a rail of regular leggings. I can't tell you enough how comfy they are to wear and just look great with so many things. They work a casual smart look terrifically.
On top I went for an H&M semi sheer blouse which dips down at the back hiding my big booty that will no doubt be struggling with gravity in my leggings. Jewellery was at a minimum today as I was rushing out the house at 7.30am there wasn't much I could find or even be bothered to look for.
I wore my Mango trench style spring jacket even though it's still pretty chilly. I love this jacket but the belt has broken and the shoulder buttons have fallen off ... to disguise this I threw on my trusty H&M fur stole over it which transforms it into something a little Burberry-esque. Wow, nearly a full outfit from H&M!

Shoes were my trusty Dune wedge shoe boots. Honestly, these shoes have hardly been off my feet since I got them, they are so comfortable and give me an added bit of height that I need. And to think I considered returning them!
You might also notice my new hair colour. As I mentioned a couple of posts ago, I got rid of my ombre hair and have gone for an all over shade of chestnut which over my natural auburn locks turns out quite a nice reddy shade. I kept the length in my hair even though my ends make go lighter quicker but this will hopefully just give a sunkissed look. Now my hair is bridesmaid ready! :)

ReplyDeleteLooking fabulous missy! Especially loving the new hair colour. I didn't hate the ombre but this is definitely more striking and sophisticated xx
ReplyDelete@millmollmac thanks luv! xx
ReplyDelete@arlene Thanks :) yeah i agree to be honest although I think ombre looked better in real life than how it photographed which was more the reason to change it before the wedding! xx
