Saturday night

Saturday night outfit post, as promised:

Camisole - £12.99 - H&M, high waist trousers - £39.99 - Zara, purse - £28 - Accessorize, diamante heels - £59.99 - Zara.

Apologies for the poor quality photos - taken in a rush!

I just couldn't resist

Vest - Whistles - £25, silk harems - Whistles - £125, satchel - H&M - 39.99, sandals - New Look - £6

These dundee print silk harems have been winking at me ever since a friend bought them early this year. Then they sold out. But now they're back in stock, and I spotted Ellie Goulding working them on Something for the Weekend (yes I am a geek) on Sunday morning, so I just couldn't resist. They look amazing with a simple black or white tee and flats or heels. I've become a bit of a harem convert - maybe a little too late because every magazine I read is saying harems are 'so over' - tell me it isn't true!

What I Wore... yesterday

Top - £22 - Topshop, belt - £9.99 - Hennes, skirt - £14.99 - Hennes, bag - £36.99 - River Island

I saw a version of this outfit on a girl wandering around Brighton the other day so I can't really take credit for it. I didn't realise how much I wanted a slinky black jersey maxi until I bought this one. It's long enough too, which is a bonus (as mentioned in previous posts I'm a good 5'8" if not a little more). You can wear it on your waist and hips too, so you get ultimate outfit options. One of my greatest maxi inspirations is Karen Blanchard at wheredidugetthat.com. If you haven't read her blog, do so. She gives a fashion masterclass in maxi wearing.

And the bag... I'm not usually a fake leather, obvious copy of a designer bag kind of girl, but this River Island one really caught my eye. More than a bit Alexa, with a little PS1 thrown in for good measure, this will see me through the first months of the new season.

Have you made any Autumn/Winter investments yet?

What I Wore

Linen tee - £65 - Whistles, jersey tube skirt - £40 - Whistles, tan satchel - £39.99 - H&M, sandals - £6 - New Look.

I spent about an hour of today rifling through my wardrobe looking for something to wear. Nothing looked right, nothing felt right. Thankfully I found my linen oversize tee thrown over a chair in the kitchen. It's a shape Whistles do so well, and I love it with a streamlined bottom half. Obsessed with the colour too. I'm definitely a khaki/tan girl. My outfits aren't complete without a tan accessory - be it belt, bag or shoes.

Do you ever have wardrobe meltdown?
