F&F Denim Style Challenge - Naomi

F&F Denim Shirt, F&F Checked Skirt, F&F Black Rucksack, Warehouse Checked Cape, Topshop Argo Boots, Vintage Belt

Visit Clothing At Tesco HERE











Last week we were asked to take part in a competition for F&F Clothing At Tesco. We were given a £75 Voucher to buy some items each including a denim item. Denim is a staple piece in every girls wardrobe and for Amy and myself its all about denim jackets, shorts and shirts.

We love a good style challenge so were really excited to get on board with this and create some cool outfits. I went for a classic F&F dark denim shirt which is a core denim piece that goes with literally everything! Of course with my latest tartan obsession I fell in love with this cute little checked skirt also from F&F which I know I will be wearing lots over AW! It's bang on trend and will look great with a cropped jumper in a clueless 90s look! As you know we both are huge fans of our trusty black rucksacks so we ordered this F&F black rucksack which worked great with both of our outfits. 

I liked this look really clean and thought my checked grey cape from Warehouse worked perfectly clashing up the checks In the skirt and cape but in a subtle way. I liked the contrast of the denim shirt against the grey wool coat and love that the denim sleeves show! I felt like a black skinny belt and the rucksack were enough to accessorise this look especially with my killer Buckle boots from Topshop.

What do you think of my denim AW look and how will you be styling your denim pieces up for the season ahead? Be sure to visit Clothing At Tesco to get some fab denim pieces at great prices!

Naomi's Week In Style





As usual I have endless amounts on my wishlist and I have narrowed it down to my favourite 9 to share with you lovelies! I have been heavily influenced by the 'This Is England' styling and product that has hit down on the high street and tartan, bomber jackets and anything PVC has become my new best friend for A/W! 

1. ASOS Lace Slip Dress

Dresses like this with the bottom lace detail are absolutely perfect for layering! Layer it under knitwear with chunky boots for a wonderful textured look with the lace detailing on show or layer it under shorter dresses to jazz your dresses up and make them more day friendly. Endless possibilities with this dress! 

2. Double Tartan 

I can't get enough of tartan for AW and we are still technically in summer! By Christmas I am going to be so over it but until then I can't get enough until I'm head to toe in it! I loved this image from the latest ASOS magazine and will definitely be taking inspiration for a blog post! Love the double tartan in the red and blue with the leather... My idea of heaven! 

3, ASOS Patent Midi Skirt 

ASOS are well on the ball with next season and have a variety of patent/PVC skirts! This priced at only £40 is a definite must have for next season! Style it with a fluffy cropped jumper, white shirt, a sheer sock and killer boot! Oof! 

4. Topshop Plastic Skirt 

I love how they have styled this skirt with a white shirt and bomber jacket, the texture is great and really lifts the outfit And gives it an edge! A fun and on trend piece to add to your AW wardrobe! 

5. Topshop Reflective Aggro Boots 

OMG! These bad boys need to get on my feet right now! I have just recently purchased them in black and can't explain my love for them! They look so sexual on and make me feel super confident! Perfect chunky heel for the day and easy to walk in. Loving anything holographic/reflective at the moment so these are right up my street! 

6. ASOS Paisley Print Dress 

I am going to Bestival in a few weeks so the festival wardrobe will be in full swing for one last time this year! I love this dress the shape of it is perfect for a throw on look for a festival and love the bright paisley print! Going to style it with a shaggy fur gilet, ethnic headband and chunky boots! 

7. Topshop Cat Bomber 

I love this bomber and can't wait to style it up! Would look fantastic with a white shirt underneath in a premium look or dressed down with ripped denim shorts and a Bralet! Either way I feel some tacky gold accessories are in need with this bomber! Love it or hate it... I love!! 

8. ASOS Boyfriend Style Shirt 

I love this boyfriend style shirt with the contrasting black collar. Would go fantastic with a lot of items in this collage and would be a staple item for AW!

9. ASOS Fishnet Sock 

Fishnet socks are what ever girl needs with her cut out boots! Another way for your feet to look uber sexual and stylish and add a touch of grunge to the exclamation point of your outfit!

As you have probably read in our recent post 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' Grunge has been a look we have welcomed back into our wardrobes with open arms! Every girl loves the excuse to be casual and look cool. I always like to make an effort and look finished off so we have shown you how to wear the more dressed up and formal version of grunge 'Clean Grunge'.

This look has been heavily featured in magazines and blogs alike in the last few weeks and is such an easy look to achieve. Think tailored or sheer shirts, leather, chunky black boots, rayban style glasses and of course the key ingredient in this look tartan! Whether it's tartan in a top, skirt, shorts, scarf, socks or a bag that on key piece will add some serious grunge to your look but mixed with premium fabrics that are sheer and leather it will look alot more grown up. These are things you will all have in your wardrobe and the best place to find tartan and cheap is of course charity shops and vintage markets for the ultimate 90's feel.

For this look I wore my new leather jacket which has become my new best friend now the weather is a bit warmer. I love the studs poking through all the way round the bottom and the boyish oversized shape- can you believe this jacket was £250 to £20 in the sale, oh the perks of working for Topshop! I wore it with an old sheer shirt with a bralet underneath and this perfect skirt borrowed of my friend Frankie who i'm sure will be rocking this now grunge is back in town! I have been big on Primark for fast fashion and accessories at the moment with the skirt, glasses and clutch all being Primark. Investing in a mix of high street like Topshop and then adding in cheaper accessories will cut the cost but still finish of the look. This look is uber clean and uber premium and perfect for the current season. Dig out your favourite tartan and oversized leather and give this look a go yourself, i'm sure you will love!
