Blue on Blue with a Blue Sky...

Dungarees//New Look
Shoes//New Look

Bag//Lulu Guinness
Coat//New Look


After weeks of rain and a pile of coursework, a day out surrounded by beautiful Scottish scenery was just what I needed! I admit I probably didn't pick the most sensible footwear considering the icy conditions (yes, I took a tumble - can't wait for that massive bruise to appear tomorrow), but I love how these pointed-toe shoes give my casual dungarees a slightly more polished look. When it comes to the double denim debate I am definitely all for it. If you're sitting on the fence and want to give it a go, here are my tips...

1. I would recommend mixing different shades of denim or pairing a denim shirt with black jeans before going all out in a similar head-to-toe hue.

2. Find the right combination for you! Try pairing jeans with a white tee and denim jacket to break it up a little. I also love to pair a denim button-up skirt with a simple denim shirt.

3. For me, black or brighter coloured accessories are best to avoid adding too many shades of blue. 


Hope this helps!

Clashing Textures

Whoever said you appreciate the weekends more when working full time - yes, you were right. I try to make the most of every weekend I have in London since I'm only here for three months and this weekend was no different. After a trip to Choccywoccydoodah, and an embarrassing fall down the stairs landing in one of their cakes (don't ask), we stopped for some quick photos in this cute cobbled street.




Dungarees//Missguided
Shirt//New Look
Bomber Jacket//Mango
Boots//Primark
Necklace//New Look

Cords may remind you of an old-fashioned fabric mainly worn by the older generation - sorry Grandad - but I love how these cord dungarees from Missguided take a fresh spin on the fabric, paired with a floral quilted bomber jacket to create the perfect clash of textures and balanced by a crisp white shirt.
