Sweet Tooth - Amy

Topshop Boutique Leather Jacket, Topshop Stripe Jumper, Topshop Dogtooth Skirt, Rodnik Snoopy Bag c/o Urban Outfitters, Clarks Chinaberry Boots










If there is one print that has got me hooked this season it's houndstooth, I cannot get enough of the stuff! With it's retro feel and ability to work with the rest of my wardrobe, I am constantly finding myself in a jumper/dress/trouser/anything I can get my mitts on to get that monochromatic insterest into my ootd!

When it comes to pure black and white, I always love to play with prints and texture and that's exactl how this outfit has come about. Stripes are always an essential, even more so than the houndstooth! so it's fab when you can get them to work together. Finished off with lots of leather makes this cool AND cosy with minimal monochrome effort

Lunatic Fringe - Amy

Lindsey Lohan x Lavish Alice Tassle Tunic, Topshop Houndstooth Trousers, Ray Ban Sunglasses, Zara Bag, Topshop Shoes














We love a good celebrity collab and were super excited to hear that no other than Lindsey Lohan had joined forces with one of our favourite brands Lavish Alice for a beautiful moden bohemian collection this Autumn, The pieces boast the ultimate statements with slick stripes and cool coords, but our favourite being these amazing statement tassles, the perfect piece for day-to-night dressing.

For my 'day' look, I layered the block coloured tunic over printed trousers (cannot get enough of dogtooth atm!) which works so perfectly in this transitional weather and went for a statement red bag to add colour and vibrance to the look. At night time, it is so easy to switch from trousers to tights for a super easy yet sexyyy outfit for a date night, drinks or a dance!!

Who's been your favourite celeb collab to date? After this collection, LL x LA is certainly a contender!

Drop Beat Not Bombers - Amy

Topshop Fur Collar Bomber, Topshop Houndstooth Oversized Sweat, Topshop High Neck Crop, H&M Black Bodycon Dress, Topshop Circular Lens Sunglasses, Topshop April Chelsea Boots









Sometimes, it's nice to give those classic trends a really modern feel for that perfect fashion forward outfit and this season, it's all about bringing back the bomber jacket. There's the perfect one around for everyone, whether it's quilted, khaki or the revival of 90s orange lining. I was lucky enough to pick this bomber up in the toppers sale nearly 2 years ago and it still comes out every autumn. The little twist to this is obviously the fur collar which makes this version a lot more feminine than the classic bomber.

I've gone for a monochrome, 60s feel to dress up this quite causal jacket and keeping with the 'modern twist to a classic' theme, I have used my houndstooth Ovid sweat as the statement piece to this outfit. I kept the rest of the outfit as clean and simple as possible using black and white jersey (so not ton take away the textures in the bomber and sweat) and finished off with a simple Chelsea boot to keep the outfit quite casual, but not too casual.
