**Feathers & (Faux) Fur**



















-  COAT - RIVER ISLAND // TOP AND COVER UP - TOPSHOP // FAUX FEATHER CLUTCH - PRIMARK // SUNGLASSES - EBAY // EARRINGS - EBAY // JEANS - JONI AT TOPSHOP // BOOTS - TOPSHOP - 

It is that time of year when we're wishing it was a bit warmer, we're so close yet so far away - even though it is officially Spring. Can't quite believe I am saying this but I am glad we're not there yet because I will use any, and I mean any excuse to wear this coat. It was a last winter purchase and if it is possibly to be in love with a coat - then I guess I am head over heels. Its slightly OTT but I honestly believe you can never be overdressed (as you may of figured from this glitzy daytime outfit!!) I've been wearing it over a casual outfits to work to jazz it up a little.

As usual the majority of the outfit is from my beloved Topshop - I must say I've recently moved from the Joni jeans to the Jamie style. The clutch was a steal from Primark - I think it was only £8! You can never have enough fluff, faux fur or feathers on an outfit.

What is your outfit must have? Do you prefer feather or fur? (FAUX OF COURSE!)

**Pink and pleather**







- TOP - BOOHOO.COM // DUSTER COAT - MISSGUIDED.CO.UK // SKIRT - RIVER ISLAND // SHOES - TOPSHOP // BAG - ASOS - 

In all honestly I can't say that this is the most weather appropriate outfit... ok I'll admit it - this photo was taken a few weeks ago when I had longer hair (I've chopped it all off!) and the weather was slightly better!) 

I have to say that this Missguided.co.uk duster coat has become a bit of a staple in my wardrobe. Its so versatile as you can just throw it on with most things and you're good to go. Plus it was an absolute bargain at only £14.99 - the best of both worlds!

The pleather skirt is one of about six - I seem to have one in every colour. I just love the fit and the fact that its high waisted (wishing I could use the two palm hand emoji to put next to the words 'high' and 'waisted.') I'll admit I was a bit apprehensive about the pleather scenario to begin with as there is always the worry it won't be flattering - but I was plesantly surprised! Next stop suede skirt!!

** Drunk In Love **


















FLUFFY JUMPER - PRIMARK // LOVE HEART JEANS - TOPSHOP // HEELS - RIVER ISLAND // NECKLACE - PRIMARK // BACKPACK - PRIMARK // BLAZER - CHARITY SHOP // SUNGLASSES - EBAY 

Aloha! 

The past few days have been so lovely and sunny so I took the opportunity to photograph this very summery outfit. I honestly don't know how people fit things in around working full time - it's something I'm yet to master - especially since I've been commuting - goodbye evenings!! However, I'M MOVING TO LONDON IN MAY! Hooray! (I'm going to rope my housemates in to doing blog photos - mwahahahaha)

I've always been a fan of the high waisted jean - they are the most flattering on my figure and so have turned into a go to when jean shopping (which is honestly the longest most painful process - erghhh). I saw these last summer and just thought I need those in my life - my legs need to have those jeans on!! I'm a big fan of a printed jean/trousers as you may of seen in previous posts.

These heels are OMG my dream shoe- they are the Rihanna for River Island ones. Unfortunately I am about 7ft tall with them on which is not ideal and so I'm selling them on ebay after never actually getting to wear them (minus for these photos). They are a size 6 so if you like what you see head over and bid!! :)

Hope you like my new-ish blog layout - its not 100% perfect but its a slow process learning how to use blogger and changing templates without messing the whole thing up - any tips anyone?! Would be very much appreciated!

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!!!

You could be my ice age sugar

You will all be impressed with myself and Jess for venturing beyond our normal outfit post area. The 'nice' (ish) weather encouraged us to cross the road and check out the park across from our flat. 

To be honest it wasn't that great but it was good to mix things up a bit. We've been craving freedom from our kitty flat because out dissertation deadline was on Wednesday so we've been work work work work work and no play...not fun! We went out last night though and made up for it haha











Today was a bit of a write off due to the hungover state we were in. We spent all day in the library though so some bits got done. 

WAHHHH- can't wait for all the work to be romeo dunn!!! Doing a fashion shoot tomorrow which is helping out for Kitty Jess's fashion project...I have one next week for mine and cannot wait to show you all the photos! YAYYYY! - follow me on INSTAGRAM to see behind the scenes stuff! (LEXIEVEEE)

Hope you are all having a bit more fun than me!

Also does anyone have any suggestions about where I can get an amaze balls dress for grad ball?!?

Love Lexie x x x
