So it's not exactly warm over here in London, but neither is it cold; it's pretty mild. I just couldn't wait to showcase my new shoes, so I braved the weather and featured this outfit a little earlier than planned. I kept the focus on my shoes and decided to make the theme be centred around it; donning all the colours of the shoes - two shades of blue and red. I finished off to look with simple jewellery and my favourite Versace sunglasses.

So I decided to change things up a bit, as you can see I now have blue hair. I've always loved blue hair but have been a bit reserved about actually having my hair in such a bold colour and to top it off would it even go with anything in my wardrobe. Well, I bit the bullet and here I am.
For my first outfit post featuring this bold and beautiful new do I decided to play on the blue colour and donned a nautical ensemble: red navy and white, of course with my favourite... a hint of gold. I paired this pretty paisley silk shirt from booho.com with navy fitted trousers from Mango. I simply threw a white blazer over my shoulders and stepped into these gold bad boy heels from Zara... to achieve this chic look. And if your wondering the eye-catching gold coin necklace is a favourite of mine from Forever 21. If you follow me on Snapchat or Instagram, you would have seen that I picked up these amazing Versace sunglasses from the airport... and ever since I got back from holiday a week ago, they've been glued to me.
I can't wait to show you some of the other looks I've put together... stay tuned.

I'm loving the weather in London at the moment; the sun is shinning and the temperature is bliss. It means that I get to wear more of my Summer frocks and don't have to wait until I go abroad. Today I wore a simple red vest dress from Zara, with gold accessories and jewellery and a quilted bag to tie everything together. There's something rather sexy and somewhat mysterious about a lady in a red dress... every time I wear one I feel good and over the years I've realised I don't need to add much to an outfit with a red dress to turn heads. However, if you want to make the look a little more casual, I'd ditch the heels for a pair of Converse All Stars.
Long live this beautiful weather...

So it was a lovely afternoon and I'd organised to meet up with the ladies for a bite to eat after work. I wanted to look casual but trendy and decided to go for a look that one of my fashion icons had recently sported; sexy double denim. Yes, a few months ago Rihanna made double denim look so sexy I decided it was about time I took a leaf out of her book and done the same.
Here's what I wore:
Sunglasses - Moschino
Shirt - H&M
Crop Top - Topshop
Skirt - River Island
Bag - Marc B
Shoes - Fashion Union

After an entire day in my heels I decided to put on my slat sandals for the commute home.

In a previous post (Today I'm Wearing: To Work) I revealed my love for teaming up blue and green. So on a recent shopping trip, when coming across a blue and green stripped top I knew had to purchase it, otherwise I would leave the store regretting it.

Though the top looks casual I knew there was 101 ways I could dress it up and make it compliment a number of different trends. I was particularly excited as I knew they'd look great with my blue Zara sandals. Here's how I teamed them up for work:

I initially tried on the top with some green trousers also from Forever21, they look great together very bold, so I decided to buy both items. However, pairing the outfit with complimentary shoes proved difficult so I decided to keep the top as the main feature by pairing it with Navy Leigh Skinny Jeans from Topshop (check out my review on these jeans).

I've always been a fan of Marc B bags, I've actually built up a collection of the affordable bags. With so many different designs and colours to chose from you're always spoilt for choice. As the sun finally came out I decided to show case one of my favourite Marc B bags, one that I bought last year...here it is, my yellow number.
Marc B bags are very good quality, lasting a long time and keeping both their shape and colour really well.
I decided to brighten up my otherwise plain outfit with the bold yellow bag, just to make the outfit pop. I think wearing white and denim definitely requires some sexy or bold arm candy, I decided to go with bold rather than sexy.
