Are You Ready Boots?...

....Start Walking!

Autumn has taken over here in London and I am embracing it full swing! If there’s one item I always go back to every time the leaves turn brown it’s a nice pair of Chelsea boots. Chelsea boots are timeless and never go out of fashion; I love to wear them with black tights and old summer dresses a ’la Alexa Chung.

I've bought Chelsea boots over the years from a few different highstreet brands and although they have been nice they always tend to wear out very quickly. I think if you know you are going to wear an item year on year you should think about investing a bit more money to make sure that piece will last you more than one season! Queue this beautimous pair of boots that arrived on my doorstep last month from Chatham for review…

Chelsea Boots - C/O Chatham

Coat - Primark

Dress - Milanoo

Hat - Portobello Road Market

One of my favourite colours for Autumn/Winter is maroon so when I saw these Chelsea boots had maroon elastic I knew we’d get on like a house on fire. They are 100% leather so I think they will last me for a few good years and they are super comfortable...

On this particular day Will & I went for a wander around Portobello Road Market and they put up well with the day of walking through crowds and standing at bus stops... 5 stars from the City Girl! At Portobello I also picked up this black hat (strongly inspired by What Olivia Did & Wish Wish Wish). I am pretty chuffed with it as it was only £18 and the one I had been eyeing up on ASOS was £30! Pleased as punch!!

Springtime Wishlist

Hey guys,

today's post is a Springtime wishlist - all the things on the UK highstreet that I am dreaming about at the moment :) Hope you like!

I've mentioned this before but I am so lusting after a matching set outfit this season - I love this gingham set from Topshop - so cute and perfect for London summers! I saw this backpack in UO the other day and squealed inside, it's so pretty and I have a special relationship with mini backpacks haha. The backpack is really sleek and 90's (which my style is slowly becoming my style - much to my non-fashiony friends' dismay)

I love this little pair from RI this season! I pretty much like anything with cakes or donuts on so this tee speaks to me haha. I also think paired with the check midi & Jellies this is an outfit a 6 year old me would be proud of.

I am working myself up to getting a pair of these 'Mom' jeans from topshop - they are pretty man-repelling but that's ok because I've already got my man so I can feel free to repel others! I love the idea of mixing them with a structured sweater and metallic simple clutch. MUCH FASHION. SUCH CHIC.

This outfit is just fulfilling my pastel needs entirely (there's one in each post I do haha). This ballerina skirt is just...uch... I can't even... I would pair, again, with a structured sweat top (Primark do a similar one to this btw) this gorgeous duck egg blue bag and a nice pair of tortoiseshell shades.

hope you like this post, all the items are in the stores NOW.

What's your favourite outfit?

LOVEEEEEE
