Obsession of the Day

Hello everyone,

I am living in fear that my classic and simple wardrobe of jeans, t-shirts and shirts is about to become more interesting. If what I'm loving today is anything to go by then my plain clothes have reason to be worried.

Look at these amazing monochrome leggings by my fashion go-to site Boohoo.com! They are so cool. I am imagining these, of course, with a plain white t-shirt and black heels with a leather jacket or blazer slung over for a cool, but still chic, night out look. I love the fact that they are high-waisted as I find that this covers a multitude of sins. I would probably wear the t-shirt tucked in, but pulled out slightly so as to hide my flabby stomach! I need these leggings in my life... perhaps they will be the kick I need to lose some weight? They are incredibly affordable too at only £12. Well done Boohoo!


If you like this injection of monochrome you can find them here!


Hope you enjoyed, although I realise that some people may not like these at all! I'll be back tomorrow with another installment!

Obsession of the Day

Hello again,

I didn't mention in the previous post that I am in fact a university student studying English Literature. Whilst I very much enjoy the university experience it unfortunately has resulted in a lack of funds for shopping. I therefore find much of my time spent browsing online stores, yearning for that one item of clothing or beauty product that will 'make' my wardrobe complete. At least for a day or two. I have decided to document these sought after items in a regular post I will call 'Obsession of the Day'. Of course I may not post these absolutely everyday but I would say that based on my dedicated commitment to trawling the internet I would expect to see these on a regular basis! With that being said...

These New Look trousers are amazing! I am in love with the tailored look. I also love a good neutral piece as I feel they are so much more versatile to wear - this dove grey is particularly lovely as it will go beautifully with the pastel colours which are sure to make an appearance in spring/summer. I am also a complete convert to high waisted anything. I do not own anything low rise any more as high waisted is so much more flattering on my (and most women with curves) figure. I would personally wear these beauties with a sheer white shirt and heels for a classy meal and drinks look or with a plain white t-shirt and loafers for a day shopping or going to uni. I also think they would look perfect (as do most things in my opinion) paired with a leather jacket to combat the chilly weather. I am absolutely in love. For those of you who are not a student these would be so perfect for work with a shirt, blazer and heels or pumps. I literally cannot fault them. What makes them even better is their amazing price tag of £14.99. New Look really have astounded me recently with some great clothes for such reasonable prices. I will definitely be flexing my student loan to get these as they seem like they will be a piece which I could get so much wear out of for so many different occassions!

If like me you are convinced, you can buy them here
