Casual is Confusing!





Hareem pants: Next 
Shoes: ASOS, £35


I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this when I say that sometimes, dressing down is harder than dressing up! Getting ready for a night out with friends is simple because there are unspoken outfit "rules" us girls (usually) follow by... dress/skirt/heels. However this is all turned upside down when it comes to a night in with friends. It's like you want to dress comfy but still be ready for the idea of a spontaneous drink at your local bar. Last night I went round my boyfriends to watch films and eat pizza and opted for this outfit as its baggy enough to feel comfortable in, yet chic enough to not be mistaken for pyjamas!


Do you feel more at ease choosing an outfit for going out as opposed to staying in? Leave a comment below and let me know!





P.S. I would just like to say a massive thank you to all the lovely ladies who have left comments on my blog or followed me on Bloglovin so far. I've only been at this for about a week and it's so encouraging to know that there is such a friendly vibe within the fashion blogging world!

ASOS AW14 Press Day


Autumn/Winter is fast approaching and before we know it we will be shivering in our chic camel coats with our umbrellas held tight. But its not all bad, because a new season means a new style and this A/W is set to be the best yet. 

ASOS.com held their AW14 press day was back in April, however I feel as though sharing it now will hopefully bring about a second wave of excitement for the new season's collection! Here are my favourite picks from the day...


Girly Grunge



The grunge trend has been updated with longline coats teamed with full scuba skirts, chunky boots teamed with sports socks and deep red hues. 


Textures



Texture means three things to ASOS; heavy fabrics, full on prints and lots of embellishments!

Androgynous Accessories


Accessories get a manly touch with briefcase inspired bags, chunky shoes and a mixture of studs and glitter.

Menswear


The main trend for menswear was teaming sporty and smart. This meant blazers worn with snapbacks and shirts worn under puffer coats.

Primark AW14 Haul

Since starting my job at ASOS I am constantly buying clothes online and hardly ever have time to go into actual shops. Recently, however, I found myself in Primark and I was so amazed with their new collection! I was like an excited kid in a sweet shop and got just a tiny bit carried away. Here's what I bought...




1. Camel coat £23
2. Limited Edition mini black bag £12
3. Cut-and-sew panel jeans £13
4. Baby blue PU quilted biker jacket £25
All Primark

As I was walking around the shop I was so impressed with the quality and prices of the clothes, I just couldn't help picking up more stuff! Plus, everything fits great!
