The King of Coats

ZARA, coat (old, similar HERE) // PUBLIC DESIRE, boots // MONKI, jeans & hat // BIKBOK, blazer // HM, scarf & belt (and top - old) // DKNY, watch (sold out, similar HERE)

Everyone need that one perfect staple coat for the colder A/W months, and I sure found mine last year for only £30 in Zara. This grey bad boy is in my opinion the perfect coat to make any oufit look tailored and put toghether, yet casual and effortless. Paired with my new Public Desire boots, black jeans, a big scarf and my favourite hat I was feeling oh so cool. Haha, not reallly, but how can pointed boots and a hat not make you feel good?

I was going for a meal with my aunt and uncle this day so because I was wearing just a cami, and don't always love bearing my bare arms and shoulders when I'm in a restaurant, I decided to chuck this white blazer on under my coat for that extra layer. In the end I'm not sure if I liked it, especially when the white peeked out from under the coat but I went for it anyway.

I hope you're all liking these new posts, I promise it won't just be outfits from now but I've got absolute mountains of uni work to get through before christmas so I'm trying to put together what I can in the time I've got. Speaking of work, I've got to get back to marketing plans and trend translations, woohoo.

Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen x BikBok Haul

Last Thursday the Scandinavian Clothing store BikBok launched the first part, out of three, of their Collection that they've made together with Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. As a huge fan of the twins and their eye for fashion and style, I was very excited to check the pieces out and hopefully pick some of them up. I didn't have time to head down to my local store until yesterday so I knew there was a chance that a lot of the collection would be sold out already, at least in my size. It turned out I was lucky as there were still quite a lot left and I got a hold of all the items I'd been wanting, apart form a blazer, and I thought I'd show you what I ended up with. I picked up two of the gorgeous shirts/blouses, one in a checkered burnt red and blue with a bow in the front and a black, high - neck, crochet patterned one. Both are in a lovely material and they have slightly 'fluffy' sleeves that come in quite fitted at the wrists - secured with nice little buttons. I also grabbed a mid-sized hand bacg in black and white with three compartments inside + a zipped pocket. it comes with a handle on top as well as a long black strap. Last but not least I decided on the black belt with gold studs and a big gold buckle - perfect with black jeans!

I absolutely love the outcome of this collaboration and can't wait for the next two parts! I'll try and do OOTD's with these items in the near future, but can't promise anything ;) And one more thing - If you haven't already I would love it if you'd follow me on Bloglovin' - that way you'll never miss a post.

Lots of Love,

Em
