Day Glow Trainers for Autumn?

SS16 has seen copious amounts of fashionistas, basic bitches and Kendal Jenner groupies walking around town in white trainers - so I thought to hell with it I'm bucking the trend and going day glow ORANGE.  
I'm being somewhat hypocritical here as I have and still do own a few pairs of white trainers, but this season I've decided  it's time for a change. I'm forever trying to evolve my style and would describe it as sometimes simple but with daring prints and coloured accessories thrown in for good measure.
Thankfully our friends at Nike ( or Adidas, Superga, Converse etc) are now offering us the chance to glow brightly whilst running for the bus. Hot colours for the AW16 season are yellow and green which I love but these Orange Nike Cortez grabbed my eye and off to the till I ran - just as Forest did!

Something New

Image Source | Instagram
Mansur Gavriel SS16

This fashion season so far has been about discovering new designer talent. Yes we all love the classics Chloe, Burberry, Chanel. But I don't think you can beat finding something new! 

Today it's all about shoes shoes shoes! A few days ago whilst scrolling through my Instagram feed I saw the most incredible pair of blue suede mules. I instantly double clicked the image and carried on getting my lunchtime Instagram fix. A few days later with those shoes still on my mind I knew I had to find them. About an hour later (after scrolling through the feed of all those I follow) I found them!! 

It turns out there by handbag designer Mansur Gavriel - a designer I've never heard of until now, but one I hope to hear more about in the future. 
His designs are simple but unique. The bold colour and strong structure will give any outfit a modern twist. His designs are all about colour and shape - he has truly let the shoe speak for its self. 

I feel a high street replica coming our way next SS, or at least I hope so!

Black is the new white

Dress | Zara (here). Trainers | Nike (here). Coat | ASOS (here).

Just a quick post tonight - life is mega stressful a the moment (uni deadlines are never ending!)
Yesterday I sported this number and tried to avoid the rain whilst taking these photos. 
I picked up this (amazing - if I do say so myself) dress whilst in Paris. Zara - you never fail to provide me with endless amounts of stripey pieces to brighten up my wardrobe. 
Come of late I've not been able to remove these Nike Air Force 1 trainers either. Black is definitely the new white and I know longer have to worry about avoiding puddles! 
Right - back to the copious amount of assignments!!
Happy Sunday

Running Tracks

Nike Trainers | JD Sports

If you have seen any of my recent tweets you will have noticed I've started running. After three months and many miles I thought it was about time I purchased some new running kicks. Reasons for this A - Keep up my motivation, B - Give my feet some loving care and C -Run in style!!! These Nike Dual Fusion's are ticking all the boxes, I'm not the ultimate girly girl but I'm loving the bright pink laces!!! Here's to more happy (and stylish) running miles.

The Silver Shoe

Silver shoes, they seem to be everywhere at the minute. From high heeled pointy courts to block heeled strappy sandals. 
Silver just seems to be one of those colours that can be worn with anything, bold colours (orange and red are my favourites), black or white.
After finding so many amazing silver shoes I found ‘the ones’. These beautiful silver courts by Kurt Geiger have a petite ankle strap and the very now ‘block heel’ they are definitely the ones for me. Any outfit would look fantastic with these shoes. The only problem is the price tag and at £125 I’m not sure my part time student wage will stretch (sob).
I will just have to hope and pray they go into the summer sale. Until then I can just dream…..

Today I'm Wearing.....

I think Spring has finally arrived (thank goodness its' been winter forever) and today the sun is out! So I decided to ditch the tights (a staple winter item) and show of my rather pale skin. I can't yet leave my woolly hats behind tho I love them too much.
