THREE WAYS TO WEAR | THE SEVENTIES SKIRT





I was recently asked by www.voucherbin.co.uk to put together three outfits inspired by my favourite fashion trends of the season. Always up for a challenge, I chose to look at the Seventies trend and in particular the heavy focus on indigo denim; from Topshop's hugely successful denim campaign to Alexa Chung's collaboration with AG jeans, denim is EVERYWHERE and I - am - loving - it.

I actually bought this skirt a couple of weeks ago when I went to my Miss Selfridge personal shopper appointment. For just £28 I had to have it, and to be honest I think this classic a-line shape is a must for everyone this Spring... I mean, who doesn't want to channel Jane Birkin?

For my first look I chose to pair my button-down with a soft crew neck jumper, ankle socks, (always), and cute t-bar shoes for a "geek chic" kind of vibe! Look number two consisted of yet another crew, tucked in this time for a cleaner silhouette, and was finished off with a "groovy" pair of rounded sunglasses for a real Seventies feel. Last but not least, I popped the skirt with a simple striped high neck top, this is probably the most "me" outfit; I love how understated it is and the graphic top made the skirt look a little more Sixties.

Which is your favourite look? Will you be jumping on the indigo band-wagon when temperatures rise... or like me are you already on it!?

H&M SHAPING JEANS









These photos were taken last weekend shortly after my exciting visit to H+M's London showroom, where I had a look at their new shaping jeans range. So sorry I've only just gotten around to posting them but I've been feeling super ill since Wednesday so've mainly been spending my evenings watching films or reading... I'm determined to feel better by Monday so am having a really chilled weekend too! I'm useless when I'm poorly, I just end up feeling really sad and sensitive :( But enough about me - more about the jeans. I've literally been living in them for the past two weeks. Not only are they a great colour but the fit is great too and the stretchy denim means they're super comfy and allow for lots of movement. As a stylist my days entail a lot of bending, kneeling, crouching etc, so these jeans are great for me!  

Last night I caught up with GIRLS. Although I'm still finding this season rather slow and dissatisfying, I am intrigued to find out where the whole Adam/Mimi Rose thing is going... I just love the show so much and find it so relatable - I wish the episodes were longer! Does anyone know of anything similar I could watch?
