Finding My Inner Grunge

Since having my hair cut my style has been a little mixed, I have lost a little of what I was, who I am.

It has also given me an opportunity to try and restyle myself, so I have been looking for some gorgeous pieces to put together .

They are quite grungy in places, but I love the first look with this gorgeous mustard coloured dress and purple boots, I think it looks great and teamed with a cream jacket makes it oober casual.

The dress on it's own would be beautiful with a pair of plain heels and the jacket and boots are both key pieces to a wardrobe.

Blazer by Reiss

Boots by Dr Martens

Next, well as everyone loves a black outfit, I thought these all go super well together, I know I am including Sun Jellies again but they are perfect for a busy mum on the run, great for rain or shine and go with everything.

This is a great smart causal look for town and could easily be made glam for a night out with heels.

Although the Reiss trousers do seem pricey they are a key piece, I bought a pair of work trousers from them a few years ago, they still look as good as the day I bought them.

I am sure these outfits aren't to everyone's tastes especially the first one but having tried the boots on they aren't the same as normal DM's the leather is super soft and they are a great purple colour.

Gorgeous Things for Spring

Gorgeous things have been popping up all over my Facebook, Instagram and emails recently and I decided I needed to get them down on some sort of list.

Firstly this gorgeous daffodil yellow barrel bag from Zatchels, the colour is divine and is perfect to brighten up any outfit and as I love daffodils this bag is just perfection.

Next up is this gorgeous narwhal necklace from designosaurYEAH, my son loves them and I just think it is so different.

I adore this dress by Orla Keily from People Tree, perfect bright colours and would look great dressed up or down this spring.

And finally, I saw these over on Dr Martens Facebook page the other day and I adore this colour way, I just think they would look great with skinny jeans or a skirt!

So there are just a few picks from my browsing over the internet, this is not a sponsored post I just really like these gorgeous items.

Ethical Fashion and Clothing

I love a bargain as much as the next person, but something about fairtrade and ethical fashion appeals to me.

I would prefer to pay a a little more for an item of clothing that has been made ethically, from the farmers who grow the cotton to the people who make them.

I love this selection from some fabulous eco concious brands:

People Tree
Minna
VIVOBAREFOOT
