JUST AS LONG AS I GOT MY SUIT & TIE

Blazer - Allsaints sale / T-shirt - Allsaints / Jeans - Zara / Boots - Kurt Geiger / Necklace - Topshop

The weather has been a bit hit and miss recently, so whenever I have ventured out the house I have had to prepare for every eventuality, hence the blazer. It's the perfect lightweight layer and is made of a silky fabric so it actually stays quite cool but is still perfect if the heavens decide to suddenly open. Plus, this outfit just makes you want to sing JT's 'suit and tie' song so what's not to love!

I have also had a rather busy week at work so I have really enjoyed just relaxing this weekend and taking a bit of 'me' time, in addition, to trying my best to run above 5k as my 10k charity run is fast approaching and 5k just seems to be my runners wall. Although I am happy to let you know I have hit 6k, aiming for 7 by the end of next week.

PLAYING FESTIVAL DRESS UP

All clothing - Topshop
Cross Necklace - Italian Boutique

While Justin Timberlake did his thang this weekend at V Fest, I decided to pretend I was there by turning up 'cry me a river' (but not quite stalking a Britney lookalike) and dressing up in the only things in my wardrobe that I thought resembled a bit of a festival get up. Obviously, I would probably need to go more 'Hunter' than 'peep toe' if I was actually there, but considering I wasn't, *sigh*, I could indulge in such fashion luxuries as heels.

Did anyone head to 'V' this weekend? What were your fashion must haves?

New Online T-shirt Company - Aztekkers

Hello everyone,

So I want to introduce you all to a new brand called Aztekkers.

Aztekkers is a solely online tshirt company set up by my brother's friend Sam and his girlfriend Lucy. Their brand offers something different and quirky and their designs are definitely unlike anything I have seen before (and I mean that in a good way).

All of their designs are originally hand drawn by Lucy and later digitally printed onto tshirts/ sweatshirts for the ultimate personal finish. This brand gives you quality and quirkiness in a fun and new way, personally I love the designs, I have my eye on the owl design (pictured below).

So if you like something a bit different and edgy then you can check them out in the following places:

I hope you are all enjoying the sun, I am off out to the cinema tonight to watch 'The Conjuring', I think I will definitely be hiding behind my popcorn!

Laid back Look

Hello,

Sorry I have been a bit MIA at the moment, what with exams, my dissertation and trying to find a job for when I graduate I'm not left with a lot of time to dedicate to my blog, which I hate because this is definitely the more fun option.

However, today I actually had time to go out for dinner and so decided to dress up a bit, as I have mainly been living in either my PJ's or sweatpants (I know not the most stylish of options but I guess that's a students life during revision). Well as you can tell I'm not a really fancy dress up kind of person, I much prefer the laid back stylish approach, you know the 'I just threw it on' look but still look super cool (well that's what I'm trying for anyway, whether I pulled it off is for you guys to decide :) )

I paired my Topshop slouchy maroon t-shirt, with a very old Topshop waistcoat, that I have found a new love for. I then threw on my pair of wet look black jeans, that are so great for comfort/style and then topped the look off with my oxblood cut out boots (again Topshop, I do think I need to start shopping somewhere else, I'm getting slightly predictable!).

My arm candy consisted of a gem/glass bracelet that used to belong to my nan, a sliver bangle that actually came from a gift shop of a museum when I was younger (you know the gift shops where on school trips as a kid you would always end up buying some funky shaped rubber from) and then the ring is from UO.

Do any of you like a stylish laid back look for going out?

Love 

Ally J
