WEEKEND WISHLIST: SKIRT EDITION

1 2 3 4 5 6

Ok so you're probably wondering why my weekend wishlist has turned into a haul of skirts. Well, this week more than ever I've been skirt-obsessed. Each website, each store I can guarantee holds a skirt I wanna get my hands on.

I find that quite a lot of people seem to have this mindset that as soon as Autumn/Winter dawns we have to put our skirts to the back of the draw, but girls I refuse! (yes nana, I'm talking to you.)

I swear by tube skirts at the moment to the point where they are making a feature in the majority of my outfits. They're simple, elegant and need I mention the comfort element! I wore one out the other day with two pairs of leggings layered underneath (don't judge) and no-one had a clue.

Next is this denim number from Monki, this skirt needs to make an appearance in my life asap. I'm thinking, tights, converse and a blazer coat with a fur collar?

Glitter skirts are so damn cute, especially for the upcoming Christmas period. They're so easy to style from day to night and perfect for sprousing up a bland outfit.

Leather, hey. I have this mind-set of pleather skirts being quite seductive but I'm gonna put that aside for a moment. If you were in my head right now, you'd be seeing this baby I've chosen here, again from Monki paired with a plain top, chunky knit cardigan and a pretty huge snood. Now, I think that sounds pretty good. Don't you?

Lastly is my most darish pick I think, I've seen so many girls wearing these types of skirts and they look absolutely amazing. Whether or not that could transfer, I don't know but I thought I'd add it in anyway.

So, that's my mixed up weekend wishlist for our first week into November and only 7 more to go until Christmas!! 

Hope you enjoyed guys!

WEEKEND WISHLIST

1 2 3 4

Whenever I blog these posts, it always dawns on me that the weekend is over. I can't complain mind because I've had a really lovely weekend, nothing whatsoever to do with the fact I went shopping (and spent more than I should have). I then spent the rest of the weekend having a meal with my Papa and having a mooch round the local market!

Autumn/Winter is catching up on me, more so financially then anything else, especially when it comes to coats, send help! Totally out of my budget range at a steep £150, but I'm a girl okay and I'm sure you can understand my need.

Next is a t-shirt dress, I've not been able to get the idea of t-shirt dresses out my head and after way too long of searching, I knew Topshop wouldn't let me down. I can't wait to get my hands on it (in more than one colour) and pair it with some over the knee socks.

If you follow me on Instagram, you will probably have noticed a trend of berry coloured lips. I can't get enough, it fits so well in with this time of year and gives us pale folks a bit of glow.

And lastly, is probably my most needed buy. This weekend has really proved just how quickly English winters can come and more so how unprepared I am. I need to get out of the habit of wearing my hair up all the time and I figured what not a better way than to stock up on some cute hats!

Now I'm off to try out some of my new LUSH purchases via a much needed hot bath. 

Enjoy the rest of your weekend guys! 

Lazy Oaf A/W'12 Collection

4 Daisy Bomber Jacket £70

3 Skull Boobs Crop Top/Wallflower Baseball T-Shirt £40

4 Have A Nice Day Slob T-Shirt £38

Full collection found here

I absolutely love the way Tess Yopp and Masha Mel have worked with this collection to make it what it is! From the way it's styled and layouted to how it's been portrayed and edited, I can't fault it. I remember purchasing my first Lazy Oaf number at Birmingham Clothes Show back in 2009. I think I wore it everyday after that until I eventually grew out of it. 

As you can probably tell through the content of my blog recently, I've been loving trailing through the different Autumn/Winter trends for this year. I think my favourite piece in this collection has definitely got to be their denim trapeze dress, it reminds me so much of the 60's and would look super cute paired with some knitted tights and some trusty ankle boots. 

What A/W collections are you loving?

H&M: AUTUMN FASHION FT LANA DEL REY

Jersey Pattern Print Leggings- £9.99

Short Boucle Jacket- £24.99 (Sold Out)

Marled Figure-Fitting Dress- £19.99 (Sold Out)

Full collection found here

I always look forward to H&M's collaborations and when I found out that Lana Del Rey was going to be the face of their fall womenswear line this year, I don't know whether I was more surprised or excited. After having a cheeky look in store, there are definitely some pieces I have my eye on. To be honest, I honestly had no idea what to expect from this collection as her personal style is so unique and really quite varied. Although two of the pieces I've chosen are sold out, I thought I'd include them anyway just in case they come back into stock in the near future, I guess there's only hope that they will!

What are your opinions on Lana Del Rey's collection for H&M?
