Nude Tones

Finally I got my hands on a long Camel Coat after the longest search of my entire life. THANK YOU MISSGUIDED FOR HAVING THEM IN STOCK!!

I put this outfit together yesterday, as I have been so fed up of wearing jeans and trousers everyday just because the weather has gotten colder, so I decided that I wanted to style up a wintery outfit that didn't include trousers!

I chose this faux leather skirt because for some reason I feel that leather is a wintery material, its thick, durable and waterproof and it looks great with most other materials. 

You may be thinking, why the hell do you have bare legs in winter? Well the answer would be that I am terrible at being female & I don't seem to own a single pair of tights...If I did have tights I would have added them to this outfit!

I recently picked up this ribbed turtle neck sweater which literally worked so perfectly with the skirt. 

Can we just take a moment to appreciate turtle necks!? 

...

Great, now we all understand how amazing they are right?

I just cannot help but buy every single one I see, they are so comfy and so warm and they seem to look great with pretty much everything.

To finish off the outfit, I threw on my Camel coat and a big chunky scarf to keep myself super warm. I loved how the colour of the turtle necked worked with the coat and the skirt. I tend to keep my colours to a minimum and go for a simple colour palette.

I wore my snake print VANS to keep it quite casual, but also because the snake print matched the colour or the turtle neck pretty well and added a little bit of pattern to the outfit, whilst still keeping it pretty simple.

Let me know what you think of this look in the comments!

Christmas Wishlist

As I am a HUGE Christmas fan, I thought I would share my Christmas list with you guys & maybe give you a little bit of inspo, because I know the struggle is real when you're asked the dreaded question:

Person: "What would you like for christmas this year?"

In my head: *Errrrrr there is so MUCH!!*

Me: "I dont know..."

Why is it such a challenge to answer that question when I spend everyday drooling over things wishing I had they money to buy them!? 

I haven't asked for lots for Christmas as I was really uncertain of what I wanted, so I thought I would just ask for things that I would get a lot of use out of, some good staple pieces & a couple of skincare products! 

The reason I LOVE Christmas so much has NOTHING to do with receiving presents, I love spending time with my family and eating tonnes of amazing food & I just love the funny feeling I get in my tummy around this time, it always makes me feel younger than I am. However, when I insist I want nothing more than to be with family and friends, Im faced with a bewildered face and forced to list a number of things I cant afford to buy myself, so that they can buy them and for any element of surprise to go out the window.

However, the feeling of opening gifts on Christmas morning (even if you do know exactly what you are getting) is so wonderful, Im always so overwhelmed with gratefulness & filled with love, that the gift its self doesn't matter so much, but the generosity of my family and friends takes over & makes me smile more than anything!

So if you are struggling with what to ask for, for Christmas, I hope that I have been able to help out, even if it is just a small amount!

Naanaa Clothing

I was recently sent this super cute playsuit from the lovely people at NaaNaa Clothing to style up & although it isn't a winter piece I was excited to do so!

Im not usually one for wearing playsuits as I find they never really suit me, however this one was really quite flattering.

With it being a floral print, I was a little sceptical as at first thought it was a bit 'girly' for me. However I made it work  with my style and actually ended up loving the outfit I put together.

I paired it with a leather jacket to make it a little bit more edgy and added the Converse and VANS socks for that more boyish vibe, which I think worked quite well.

  

What do you think? Would you have styled it differently?

Alexander Wang x H&M Wishlist

I am totally OBSESSED with the Alexander Wang x H&M collection, so I thought I would share with you some of my favourite pieces from the collection.

The collection has a VERY spots luxe vibe, even carrying a number of gym wear pieces. I am a sucker for scuba material and there is a lot of that in the collection.

Im so happy that the collab is with Alexander Wang as he is such an incredible designer, & that is backed by this amazing collection.

Im also really impressed with the pricing of the collection, everything is really affordable, with even the more expensive items, not being out of reach for most. I was prepared to watch in awe as everyone bought their favourite pieces from the collection whilst I sobbed over my lack of funds, BUT thats not the case, I can actually afford to make a couple of purchases & I am SO happy about it!

The t-shirt dress and the grey embossed jumper are my two must haves, both of which I will be shopping, when the collection goes on sale online tomorrow at 9am!
I am actually getting anxiety about it, how ridiculous is that? Im going to be on the website, logged in ready to order at 8:30am, bank card in hand!
I don't think I dare brave going in store to shop the collection, i'd fear for my life.

Ive chosen the dress and the grey jumper because I feel that I can incorporate them nicely into my winter wardrobe, as they are very wearable and easy to style. However, I am really drooling over the Wang Bandage bralet, so we will see if that makes it's way into my online cart tomorrow morning!

Keep an eye out on my instagram (sachaxo) for what I purchase.

Will you be shopping the collection? If so what are your must haves!?
