#WantItWednesday (09/09/15)

So I have missed a week; blame it on a home improvement gone awry. However I am back with a vengeance and wonderful new dining table in my flat to eat on. Once I had managed to put the table up I was once again back on the high street looking for my next sartorial fix. 

From Monki
And I found it this week with the hidden gem that is Monki. 
I was always a bit weary of this chain; it always looks really painfully young and cool. The kind of cool you'd want to clip around the ear. 

I had come across a few bits during my hourly trawl through ASOS. Some of their best pieces (more than a couple are now proudly sat on my clothing rail of merit) like this shirt dress and these culottes.

Next on my list of things to buy is this perfect oversized sweater dress from their AW15 arrivals. This is huge, soft and perfect in many and any occasion. 

I would wear it with a crisp, white shirt and one of my many hundreds of white trainers or plimsolls. (these would look best with that look)

In fact... I like the idea of this look so much that I am clicking 'add to basket' as I speak, with about 100 other bits! oops. 

Until next week!

#WantItWednesday (24/06/15)

From Monki

I have been searching high and low for a lovely relaxed, summer skirt and I think I have found it in this gorgeous skirt from Monki. 

This lightweight, striped denim skirt is perfect for the longer evenings spent outside. This works well with an oversized button down or a Tshirt, even one of my favourite Fisherman Jumpers from American Apparel for when the nights draw in. 

I think my summer prayers have been answered with this little beauty. This is fun, relaxed and delightfully vintage for the summer.

High Street Heroes: May

It's May! 
I can smell summer; it's so close and that makes me extremely happy! 
When I'm happy, that makes me want to go shopping and shopping is perfect for this month's high street heroes!
I have been searching high and low for the best the high street has to offer and now I am ready to show you. HOORAY!  

Like I have mentioned a few times already, the 70s are back in a big way. 
Topshop, River Island and the ilk are all over this trend like disco on fever.
