Coat Updates



Mint Boyfriend Coat // £50 // Bank



Fur Lined Biker Jacket // £80 // River Island 
One of my very first posts was about coats and here we are again at that time of year! For some reason this winter I have a bit of an addiction to coats and every time I go shopping I see one I want! I must admit Primark have stepped up their coat game and have had loads in recently that are spot on, however they have always sold out of small sizes so I haven't managed to grab myself a bargain unfortunately but I will keep looking every time I go in! 

These are my first two coat purchases this year. The pictures of the boyfriend coat don't really do it justice. Its a really lovely fresh colour and it's made from wool so has a nice texture to it. It fits over anything and makes any outfit a bit more jazzy! It was a brave purchase for me because I usually play safe with black or grey but I'm so glad I bought it now and I've worn it loads already! 

I've wanted a waxed Barbour for the last few years but never justified the money or found one I really want. Spotted this biker jacket in River Island and thought it was kind of similar to a waxed style jacket with the pockets and belt. It's made from a matte finish leather and the sleeves are fabric so it look really smart. I love the cream fur as well as it gives it a bit of a shearling type look. It covers my bum and is really warm and snug and I'm sure will be an amazing winter purchase! 

Both of these are still available on the websites so get yours before they go.

Spring Wishlist

Olivia Burton Watches Available at Asos and Topshop // Lipsy Embellished Cami Dress £55 Bank // Dogtooth Crop Top and Asymmetric Skirt both £14.99 Missguided // Nike Roshe Run £70 JD Sports
At the moment these are the few things I REALLY want. I've been after an Olivia Burton watch for a while but I already have two watches so don't know whether to splash out or not. If i get one I would get a white, coral or pale pink strap which would be nice to have over summer so now is the time to go for it I suppose. They're only about £70 and from Asos or Topshop you can get student discount, almost too much of a bargain to miss. The picture here doesn't do the embellished dress justice. In real life it is INCREDIBLE. As soon as I have either 1) booked a holiday somewhere hot or 2) been invited to a wedding (haha!) I am going to snap this up. I don't usually like Lipsy stuff at all but this is worth every penny of the £55. The Dogtooth Co-ord set is also a holiday kind of outfit. Again, I've been looking at Co-ord's for a while but haven't found one I really want yet until this. I can't make my mind up if £30 is a lot for the set, I guess not as you can wear each half separately as well with other garments. Finally, I'm looking at getting some funky trainers. Not for the gym as I already have some but some for general day wear. Waiting for payday before I get them though. All of this little lot would set me back £220 or there abouts, OUCH!!
