Prints!!!

prints prints prints!!! exploring the fashion world at the moment and it is likely that you will come across an abundance of prints; there is not really one stand out print at the moment, rails are full of leopard print, dogtooth, digital prints, tartan [i love a tartan scarf!!!], geometric prints, floral...

and one item of clothing is not restricted to one type of print either, the sight of clashing prints is not a rare sight on the high street, in the world of prints it is printastic!!!

available from asos and river island

here are two clashing print dresses i found, the designs are very 'out there' and not really something i would wear but definitely show of the trend of prints!!!

i do love prints though but generally stick to one print per item of clothing and then maybe clash the single items together to make an outfit, depending on how i feel!!!

here are some prints to maybe give a bit of print'speration, [loving the made up words!!!] aha!!!

all from asos

leopard print, which seems to be purring away in the fashion world

purse, beige jumper, dress from river island,  black and white jumper, skirt from asos, coat from topshop

dogtooth print seems to be very popular at the moment and not just in the classic black and white!!!

shirt, trousers, bag, blouse from asos, wellies from topshop, leggings from miss selfridge

geometric prints in various shapes and colours are hitting the fashion world!!!

so sooo many prints !!!

coats!!!

i love coats and living in england they are really useful what ever time of year but especially in the autumn and winter!!! so this time of year the great debacle over which coat to invest in [i'm mean they are not the cheapest of items] brings the chaos of decision making [i find it really difficult to make decisions, ahhhhh].
there are soo many types of coats and then variations within that type, humm... so i find choosing a coat type to suit an activity helps in narrowing down the abundance of choices, and then having one or two coats for each activity, for example shopping or going out for a meal, helps in the moment of 'which coat to wear' before going out.

i love the clothing empire of asos, and have used their website and their many options to resource finding a great coat to suit a variety of activities:

smart belted coat, can be worn for smarter occasions

quilted parker, really warm great for out walking in the cold!!!

the mac, great for in the rain, keeping clothes dry!!!

Quilted jacket, great for shopping, everyday coat

the cape

parka, great for everyday, keeping warm, out in the park[ahaa]!!!

duffel coat, cute!!!

jacket, great for shopping!!!

boyfriend jacket, great for keeping warm!!!

fur coat, warmth!!!

coats !!!

love alice

what i wore!!!

so often i don't necessarily co-ordinate my outfits through colour, i think mixtures of colours can be great and fashionesk, then sometimes, [ahh decisions] i do co-ordinate colours which can look slightly more 'high end fashion'. with this outfit i used the tan colour as a basis, which i think is great for the autumn and the fact it is soo sunny today!!!

 this outfit seems great for the autumn as it can be layered depending on whether inside or outside, and how cold it is [if i was outside for a while i'd probably end up with a long sleeve t-shirt under the blouse, the headband, scalf and a jacket... i find the cold!!!]

blouse miss selfridge

 headband miss selfridge

bag tk maxx

boots river island

scalf h&m

shorts republic

i love these boots and their faux fur!!! and i also love this scalf, it is really long and snugly!!!

love alice

bracelets and bracelets and bracelets

i love bracelets and love wearing lots of them too, and i have notice that bracelet stacking has been making lots of appearances in the fashion world and look magazine even has posted an article about it, the photos are great, i love looking through them!!!

not only does it look great as part of a whole outfit but the bracelets themselves, i think, make a great picture!!!

here is a photo of some of my #armswag throwing together lots of colours and styles

here's a smaller stack of bracelets which is a bit more refined [but i really love the clashing colour stacks also!!!]

love alice



autumn winter sweaters!!!

i have a real great love for lovely snugly winter sweaters, fair isle prints always catch my eye, hence the three purchased specimens below [though one is about two years old!!!] and these are from primark!!! so they have a great price tag. i find i'm quite selective when buying from primark, sometimes the quality isn't the best, but i found these jumpers to be great, they are warm and don't look cheap, yay. 

i love the snow flaky patterns [gets me a bit excited for 'christmas'!!!]

this ones about two years old but has lasted really well [minus a few bobbles, which always seems to happen with wool jumpers]. and i think these sweaters never really go out of fashion, yay!!!

love alice

spring summer autumn winter #beauties

hello i thought i might write some posts about clothes and items which can be worn what ever the weather, items that do not need to be packed away into a summer or winter wardrobe [pleasing the money in the bank] and can be modeled anytime of the year, yay!!!

beauties:



rimmel lasting finish lip stick in coral in gold

17 nail varnish called glisten, from boots

rimmel glam'eyes trio eye shadow in topaz 

in the summer i really liked the coraly golden shades as they reminded me of the glistening sun and summer days. now it is the autumn and the summer days seem over for another year, but i think these golden shades can still be used and now they remind me of the autumn leaves!!!

love alice
