So, I went on a HUGE shopping spree at Evans Marble Arch store yesterday. The deputy manager Gagan and her staff were absolutely amazing and patient, and helped me a lot. I wanted to share a few of my buys with you on this post, since I finally found some comfy jeans! I know I have posted a few pairs before, from H&M, and I didn’t even care about the fit that much since they were such sale bargains.. But actually the ones at Evans were so great on my shape, than I ended up buying 3 pairs (and no, they weren’t on sale either – so that tells something)!!

I also got 3 pairs of boots, and some awesome jewellery too. So in this outfit I’m combining the Evans baroque print jeans. banana heel shoeboots and statement ring with this see-through knit from Primark (I love this, I need it in all the colours!) and black sequin blazer from Matalan (yes, I had to get the black one too, haha). I really like the combination of cosy items with the sparkly ones, and the grey and black colour palette.

Sequin blazer: 20, Matalan (similar by Lovedrobe) | Knit top: 20, Primark (similar at Dorothy Perkins) | Grey baroque print jeans: 22, Evans | Shoe boots: Evans | Bra: Daily Boost by Curvy Kate (get from Very) | Ring: Evans | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs)

I am in love with these jeans, and so happy that I found them! If you are interested in these jeans and are similar shape than me, I’d advice you to size down (if you don’t have a chance to go to Evans and try them on). Previously I have been 24-26 in trousers/jeans (and the lovely 28 at H&M obviously, haha), but in these I’m 22! Have you made any jeans discoveries lately?

Wednesday is here again, and I’m sure you know it’s Fatshion Faceoff time! If you’re new to the blog, please see here what Fatshion Faceoff is about :). This week’s challenge item was chosen by Dani, and she chose a printed dress.

After last week’s crazy item, I decided to do an autumnal and easy look this week :). All these items have already been blogged before, but not together.. so it’s all good, right? I love wearing brown accessories with both navy and green, those colours are a must on my Autumn wardrobe.

Dress: XXL, Old Navy (similar at ASOS) | Belt: XL, Matalan (similar at Dorothy Perkins) | Shoes: Minnetonka Moccasins (Zappos link for US) | Bag: H&M (similar at ASOS) | Glasses: LensWay (similar) | Lippy: Accessorize, Coral Crush With Love (similar MAC lippy)

Now let’s go see what kind of dresses the other FF ladies are wearing, I’m sure they all look amazing :)!

Ok, confession.. I’m a total copycat, hence the name for this post. After seeing this awesome outfit by Dani, I wanted to do a similar one myself. But copying is really flattery, right, so don’t be mad at me Dani ;).

So sparkly leggings, chunky knit, Converse.. check, check, check. And let’s add a moustache necklace too, since it’s Movember after all!

Jumper: XXL, Old Navy (similar at Simply Be) | Tank top (just seen): 18, New Look (similar at Old Navy) | Sequin leggings: 24, ASOS Curve | Converse High tops | Chunky scarf: H&M (similar at Topshop) | Moustache necklace: eBay (similar by Tatty Devine) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs)

I love how the sequins look with VERY casual outfit.. can’t wait to try similar with my sequin jacket :). Do you like to add sparkle to your more relaxed looks?

It is Sunday, which means it’s time for a Double Vision again. In this challenge my amazing friend Dani and I are choosing a theme, item, movie character.. whatever we come up with basically, and style those our own way and post at the same time. Read more about the challenge here. Dani made some suggestions for this week’s item, and we chose to build our outfits around a polkadot skirt.

I have 3 skirts with polkadots, and I had some trouble choosing which one to use. I decided to use this bodycon skirt from H&M, and wear it casually. My outfits here seem to be more on the ‘fancy’ side, so this one is properly casual, which I love. I’m thinking this will be my outfit for work tomorrow.. Monday mornings are always a nightmare for me, so this outfit would save me some effort and give me a bit more sleep ;). (Yes I’m VERY lazy on Monday mornings.)

Skirt: L, H&M (polkadotted skater skirt at New Look, navy pencil skirt at Simply Be) | Shirt: XXL, Old Navy (similar at Old Navy, similar at New Look Inspire) | Dress (used as a longline top): 18, New Look (similar top at H&M) | Wedges: Matalan (same in black, similar at ASOS) | Necklace: Forever 21 (similar at Simply Be) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs) | Lippy: Natural Collection Moisture Shine in Crimson – available in Boots (similar by MAC)

This is definitely one of my ‘teenager in her thirties’-outfits. I bet I will never grow up ;). (Although I did dress much older in my actual teens, and I feel that I have to make up for that, haha.)

So, let’s  go see if Dani did casual or fancier look this week.. clickity to DIY Fatshion!

Today was crispy, sunny and gorgeous, I really love Autumn days like this. Almost similar outfit has been seen on the blog already, but I couldn’t resist taking some pics – with my new camera may I add! I LOVE this maxi dress, it’s definitely one of my favourite buys ever.. and I feel the same about my Minnetonka moccasins and this biker jacket, so I this outfit is quite a cosy winner in my book.

Biker jacket: 20, Primark (similar at ASOS, similar at Simply Be) | Maxi dress: XXL, Old Navy (long sleeved one at Old Navy, similar in blue at ASOS) | Scarf: vintage (amazing autumnal flowery one at Accessorize) | Belt: thrifted (similar at ASOS) | Bag: Clothing at Tesco (similar at Accessorize) | Shoes: Minnetonka Moccasins (Zappos link for US) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs)

I’m totally in love with this look, and might have to revisit this outfit some day next week for work. What is your perfect Autumn look?

Wednesday is here again, and I’m sure you know it’s Fatshion Faceoff time! If you’re new to the blog, please see here what Fatshion Faceoff is about :). This week’s challenge item was chosen by me and I chose crazy/patterned legwear.

I have wanted to do this item for ages. I have LOADS of crazy leggings that I never seem to wear, and I really wanted to do this post. These are basically the craziest leggings I own, haha, leopard print, flowers, yellow, pink, blue, green, black… They are also sheer. So insane that I LOVE them :D.

Leggings: 20, Primark (awesome leopard and cosmic leggings at New Look Inspire) | Biker jacket: 20, Primark (similar at Simply Be) | Top: 30/32, Avenue (similar at New Look Inspire) | Boots: Primark (similar at Style369) | Scarf: H&M (similar at New Look) | Lippy: MAC Viva Glam Nicki Minaj

I totally have to start wearing mine more.. they make otherwise simple outfits amazing! Have you got crazy leggings or tights?

Now let’s go see what kind of crazy or patterned legwear the other FF ladies are wearing, I’m sure they look fabulous as always! …And I wonder if Dani is wearing these same ones ;)

Sorry for the silly name for this outfit.. it all starts with the top bun. It seems to be the hairstyle of choice for ‘proper’ fashion bloggers, and I tried it for the first time ever. I even added this amazing spiked hair comb in it to complete the look ;). I do like it a lot, but I don’t see myself having my hair like this every day. (Ok, the main reason is that I can’t see myself waking up 15 mins earlier to do this in the morning.. yes, I hate mornings.)

I wore this outfit on Thursday, when I went to Clothing at Tesco AW12 event with the lovely Becky and Caroline. (Thanks for sneaking to the side streets with me and snapping these pics Becky <3!) I wanted to wear this Lovedrobe dress (review here), and decided to wear it with a denim jacket to make the look more casual for work.

Denim jacket: 1X, Forever 21+ (PU sleeved jacket at Dorothy Perkins, denim jacket at Simply Be) | Dress: 20, Lovedrobe at One Stop Plus* (similar at New Look Inspire) | Belt: 1, Target – swapped with Dani (similar at One Stop Plus) | Leggings: 20, Primark (similar at ASOS) | Shoes: Primark – thrifted (similar at Evans/Style369) | Hair comb: ASOS | Bag: Primark (similar by Bertie) | Lippy: Maybelline Pink Punch Baby Lips lipbalm- gift from Dani (similar shade lipstick by NARS) | Nail polish: Gold by Giles at New Look (similar shade by Models Own) | Glasses: LensWay (similar)

Sorry I haven’t been around much in here (or in Twitter for that matter).. work has been completely manic lately, gotta love the Christmas season in advertising, we are all working and working and working. I also have a few events coming up (well one has gone already), and I will post about those on a later time. …OH, and exciting news! I have bought myself a new camera! I’m so happy that I won’t have to rely on my flatmate’s camera anymore, and I can take pics when and where I want. So I hope to bring you more variety in where I take my pics soon :)

Anyway, to the post itself.. after last week’s break it’s time for a Double Vision again. In this challenge my amazing friend Dani and I are choosing a theme, item, movie character.. whatever we come up with basically, and style those our own way and post at the same time, more about the challenge here. I got us both these metallic pleather skirts, and we decided to base the theme around them and other metallics.

I teamed the skirt with sheer Forever 21+ shirt, gorgeous sparkly boots and a layered necklace, and finished with my favourite coral lippy.

Shirt: 2X, Forever 21+ (similar at New Look Inspire) | Skirt: 20, Primark (didn’t find similar, but.. skater skirt at ASOS or sequin skirt at New Look Inspire for skater or sparkly look) | Leggings: 20, Primark (similar at ASOS) | Boots: Evans/Style 369 | Necklace: Forever 21 (similar at ASOS) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs) | Lippy: Accessorize, Coral Crush With Love (similar MAC lippy)

Have you ventured the metallics-trend? I do like this shine and sparkle for this Autumn, it makes the darkness of the weather a bit brighter :). Dani is doing this in the sunny Texas though, so let’s go to DIY Fatshion to see what she wore in this challenge!

Once again it’s Wednesday and I’m sure you know it’s Fatshion Faceoff time! If you’re new to the blog, please see here what Fatshion Faceoff is about :). This week’s challenge item was chosen by Mhairi, and she chose a floral dress.

I’ve had this dress for ages (well it feels like ages, but really it’s been like 6 months, haha), and it’s been on the blog already. Dani had the same dress on in the bodycon challenge a few weeks ago and she reminded me of this dress’s existence and I thought it goes well with this Autumn’s trends. I added my new amazing glittery boots and the parka you already saw a few posts ago. I really love this outfit myself, it’s both glam and relaxed at the same time.

Dress: 20, New Look Inspire (similar at Simply Be) | Parka: 24, Clothing at Tesco (similar at ASOS) | Boots: Evans | Bag: Primark (similar by Bertie) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs) | Lippy: Natural Collection Moisture Shine in Pink Mallow – available in Boots (similar by MAC – shade Saint Germain)

Do you like wearing floral dresses? I love these darker ones this Autumn <3!

Now let’s go see what kind of dresses the other FF ladies are wearing, I’m sure they look fabulous as always!

The Autumn has definitely come to London. It’s dark when I leave the house in the morning and it’s dark when I come back in the evening. I still like to wear colours, but seem to I go for darker shades automatically when I go through my wardrobe. Does that happen to you too in the Autumn/Winter times?

Dress (worn as top): 22, Dorothy Perkins (same in grey, similar at ASOS) | Skirt: XL, Old Navy – altered (similar at Old Navy, similar at ASOS) | Leggings: 20, Primark (similar at ASOS) | Wedges: Matalan (similar at ASOS) | Necklace: Style369 (similar at ASOS) | Glasses: LensWay (similar at Select Specs) | Lippy: Natural Collection Moisture Shine in Crimson – available in Boots (similar by MAC – shade Cockney)
