#OOTD, 16th February, Suede Parade

Unless you've been hiding under a rock lately, you will know that the seventies is a HUGE trend for the new season, and I am already loving it. I haven't found my perfect pair of flares yet or that 'just right' fringed bag, but I have bought several vintage suede skirts. This look is inspired mostly by the Chloe SS15 runway, where tan suede was paired with navy. It's still too cold for the gladiator sandals also showcased so instead I've gone for my favourite ankle boots. 










Skirt, eBay. Shirt and boots, New Look (last year). Bag, ASOS (sold out).

When it's finally sunny I'll be wearing this skirt with a simple white t-shirt and platform sandals. Are you loving suede lately too? I'd love to see how you style it, leave me a comment!

#OOTD, 13th February: Dressed Up Double Denim

I'm sooo fed up of Winter weather, so instead I'm looking ahead to Spring. I've been sceptical of double denim in the past but since seeing it all over the SS15 runways looking so chic I thought I'd give it a go. 









Shirt, ASOS. Jeans, Topshop. Boots, H&M (similar here). Clutch, Zara (sold out).

I've had these mom jeans a while and I just love the relaxed shape, they are so comfy. I thought this shirt would be a good staple to have in my wardrobe and I'm already so glad I bought it. As well as been the perfect partner for double denim, the oversize pockets make it a subtle nod to the utility trend that is set to be huge come Spring. I think the heeled boots and clutch dress the denim up a little and I would definitely wear this look out, on the other hand just add a should bag and trainers and you've got yourself the perfect casual-cool look. 

Have you tried out any of the new season trends yet? I'd love to see, leave me a comment!

#OOTD, 10th February, New Semester New Season

It may not feel like Spring  outside yet, but Spring has definitely sprung on the high-street! There are a few little hints of the new season in my ensemble today, but it's still too cold to go coat-less!
Today was my first day back at uni after the longest Christmas holiday and I was feeling rather fresh, so I went for lighter colours.








Shirt, ASOS. Jumper, ASOS (similar here). Bag, DKNY Active (sold out). Jeans, Topshop. Adidas trainers, ASOS

As always I'm wearing my trusty Joni jeans again but one of my New Years [Style] Resolutions is to experiment more with clothes so watch this space! How cute is this bag? I saw it in the ASOS sale and I had to have it - hello double denim! Winter is all about layering for me and I love the fit of this boyfriend shirt because it's long enough to layer under a knit, and it's also striped which I can't get enough of lately. 

I also think I need to start doing things with my hair: the bed head look is getting old! If anyone has any easy tutorials or styles then leave me a comment because I need some inspiration!

I have to thank my bestie Shannon for taking these photos for me in the Sheffield Peace Gardens, although I'm not sure I like posing for photos in a busy public place!

I haven't blogged for such a long time and I've missed it! I've had so much work and revision to do for uni, but I finished my exams on Friday so I'm baaaaaack! I have more free time this semester so expect more blog posts! 

For my first post in a long while I thought I'd focus on the New Season. If you follow me on Instagram (@kelsiee94 if you don't) you'll know I'm absolutely obsessed with the Spring/Summer trends filtering their way into the shops; today I'm talking suede. It's THE fabric of the season (hello seventies!) and I've become a little obsessed with buying vintage suede skirts. I'm also on the lookout for that perfect suede jacket, so I've picked out a few of my favourites below.... 

1. ASOS Biker Jacket, £130.

2. Boohoo, Emma Waterfall Suedette Tassle Jacket, £15.

3. H&M, Fringed Jacket, £29.99.
