It's not overly warm at the moment, but I do feel as though sweater weather is over. It's hard to find an outfit that suits this weather, because it is so unpredictable. One minute its pouring down with rain, and the next, the sun is shining. the other day I swear it was snowing??? WHAT?! However, one of my favourite items of clothing is a shirt/blouse with a collar, as this is so versatile, plus I do love my collars as I think they are so cute and vintage and it is what I feel mostly comfortable in. You can literally buy them from any shops. I have chosen a black and white checked shirt as you can style these colours up so well with vibrant accessories. This particular blouse is from Urban Outfitters and I must say I splashed out a little on this one. It was £40, but I needed it in my life?? OKAY, that's not an excuse, but isn't it pretty?!! As this is the main item of the look, I styled it quite simply with black leggings and brown fluffy boots, which are from River Island. In regards to socks, I would either wear some with a frilly rim which you can see over the top of the boot or some green socks, just to add extra colour and cuteness.
The main accessory in this look is my bag and it's my very bright orange bag from River Island. This was in the sale when I bought it and I do believe it still is, but they have brought out a baby pink one in the same style, but it is full price. This bag is great as it is big, but not too big and it has a longer handle which you can use if you don't want the short handles.
I probably would add a subtle longer necklace to this look as I love my jewellery and have quire a lot, but something silver would finish the look off. I don't have my ears pierced, but if I did I would wear either pearls or a silver diamond pair (fake of course).
My hair is in a half up, half down sort of style as my hair is quite long and can get quite frustrating to work with. I used my yellow polka dot scrunchie from Topshop to style my hair.
Sometimes, to define the look, lipstick can really make a difference and dependant on the look you are going for you can choose a darker lipstick or quire a subtle natural one. The three I would choose are the Rimmel Moisture Renew lipstick in the shade 'In Love With Ginger', number 660; this is such a gorgeous orange and is pretty much the exact same colour as my bag. Another darker shade is the Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick in shade 107 as this is an amazing lipstick, smells great and lasts for ages. (I am working on a blog post for the 107 lipstick). The subtle one would be my Bourjois Colour Boost lip gloss in the shade 'Orange Punch', number 03 as this will give a better Spring look with it being more glossy and lighter in shade.
Rimmel Moisture Renew, 'In Love With Ginger, 660'
Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick, 107
Bourgois Colour Boost, 'Orange Punch', 03
I think this look is perfect for the unpredictable weather and of course everyone styles things in their own way to suit them and this is how I like to dress.
