A couple of weeks ago I was browsing Beyond Retro online when I came across these simple, black culottes! I'm so in love with my tartan pair, (which I picked up before Christmas in Rokit), that for just £9 in the sale, I had to have these! They're so useful because I can literally pair them with anything, they're super comfortable and they can be worn all year around to!

"VINTAGE" CULOTTES FROM BEYOND RETRO
GREY H&M TIGHTS
This year I've teamed up with vintage brand Beyond Retro to help spread charitable, (and festive), love in conjunction with
Save the Children's Christmas Jumper Day. Beyond Retro have pledged to sell 10,000 Christmas jumpers in the lead up to the big day and will be donating £1 from each sale to Save the Children.
To support them in their generous endeavor simply head over to
Beyond Retro, (online or in-store), and purchase yourself a snuggly, possibly ugly, festive knit to sport this Christmas Jumper Day. Beyond Retro actually have a pop-up store at Old Street station at the moment which is dedicated entirely to Christmas jumpers, so perhaps you could even treat yourself to a visit there when searching for your new wooly friend! Once in your knit, be sure to enter their
#xmasjumperstylechallenge, where you could win a £250 shopping spree! All you need to do is make sure you're following Beyond Retro on
Twitter and
Instagram then snap yourself in your new Christmas jumper alongside the hashtag above!
Last weekend I got into the Christmas spirit perhaps a little early and wore my new festive jumper into central where I had a wonder down Carnaby Street, which is looking super pretty at the moment with all of it's lights up. I also treated myself to a magazine haul from one of the fabulous magazine shops hidden in London's trendy Soho! Just a tip about Soho, there's a great cocktail bar called Zebrano, which has happy hour till 10pm most evenings;)
VINTAGE JUMPER FROM BEYOND RETRO*
The last pair of dungarees I owned were a hideous lime green. I was seven-years-old, give or take, and my Mum had picked them up for me at a car boot sale... although I don't think I could pull of that sickly green colour anymore, I do rather like this classic denim style, which were found whilst rummaging in Beyond Retro's Cheshire Street store. Have you ever been? It's like a treasure cave, be sure to visit if ever in London! Any way, I think the key to a good pair of dungarees is size... the bigger the better! Oversized 'rees are cute, fun and flattering, just like big high waisted shorts - yup I've most certainly, (finally), joined the dungaree bandwagon.
