Noir et Blanc

I thought I'd show you my black and white Topshop and Dr Marten favourites! I've recently had an obsession with Dr Martens, which isn't a good thing because they're so expensive! But loads of my friends have been purchasing some, so why not? My birthdays coming up, so hopefully I'll get enough money to buy a pair:) I've always loved Topshop, so I thought it'd be a good idea to give you a few ideas.
 

This is from Topshops' PETITE collection and if you want to search it on the site, it's called 'Deco Lace Bralet'. It's £25, which personally I think is quite a lot for a bralet, but it is very detailed and we all know Topshops' prices don't exactly resemble Primark! I think it would look really nice with jeans of any colour for summer, and in colder seasons, a grey cardigan would look really stylish. Obviously, this bralet style or wearing a bralet in general mightn't be for everyone, however it'd just an idea and I love it!

 

 

I have a pair of Miss Selfridge plain black jeans already, however I've wanted some with rips in the knees for a while. Personally, I think they look really cool and are really versatile, in the sense that they can be worn in any season. These are Topshop MOTO 'Black Ripped Jamie Jeans', priced at £42. I know this is very expensive but Topshop jeans last much longer than any other jeans I've bought and fit perfectly. Also, I may sound really strange but there's just something about saying "I own a pair of Topshop jeans", I don't know what it is but it just feels good to say!! :')

This jumper is £50 from Topshop, I think is really funky and who doesn't love bacon?! I don't think I could ever bring myself to spend £50 on a jumper, but there's no fault in dreaming...If however you're lucky enough to purchase this item, I think it would work best in a slouchy/casual outfit, for lounging around in your house or something like that. However, I'm sure it would work for going out of your house to, maybe with some black leggings. I've never seen a piece of clothing like this and I feel would appeal to many people, and having 'bacon' illustrated works really well and makes it even more unique. to find this on their website, search '**Classic  Bacon Hoodie by Illustrated People'.

I've always wanted a style of top like this, however have never found one that I really like for a decent price. When I saw this on the site I was so pleased that I'd finally found this style, for a reasonable price and in a lovely pattern! It's called '**Dana Crop Top by Motel' and is priced at £22. I've also really wanted some co-ords for a while as well, however I'm not too keen on the matching skirt but I thought I'd show you anyway as obviously not everyone has the same fashion taste as me!
                            
      
I saw this top on the weekend in Topshop with my best friend and I remembered seeing it on Beyond The Velvet's blog and I love it! It's something really unique and I like the astronaut helmet, as I think it's an extra touch that hasn't been seen before. It's £22 and personally I think it's a bit expensive as it's just a black and white graphic T-shirt, but in a way you're paying for the brand too; and if you really like it that much, it's worth the money. If you want to search it on Topshop, it's called 'I Need Space Tee by Tee and Cake'.

This top is called '**Folly Crop Top by Motel'
and is priced at £18. I think this would be an ideal top for Summer and would look great with a pair of black jeans or blue mom jeans. Obviously it would look good with the majority of trousers, however that's just my personal opinion of what I think would look best.

This is the final top and it may not be everyone's cup of tea but I really like it and I think it's really cool and different. The design is the same on the back and in case you hadn't realised, it's a gorilla. It's called '** Gorilla Crop Top by Illustrated People' and is priced at £32. As lovely as this top is, I don't think I could ever bring myself to spend £32 on a crop top.
                                                                                                 

                         
A couple of my friends have the '1460' Black Boots and I love them! They're so cool and go with absolutely everything. Some people don't like the yellow string, but personally I think it's the extra touch that makes the overall shoe look so much better. The black boot is priced at £100, and if you want them in other colours or patent the price may vary. The '1461' shoe is £90 and Ii think looks best with baggy jeans, however similarly to the boot, would go with anything. I really like both of them and if I was lucky enough to own both of them, I'd wear the boots with leggings and skinny jeans and the shoes with my Mom jeans or with skinny jeans also.


Finally, this is my favourite pair of docs, they're called 'Bethan' and are priced at £130. I know this may seem very expensive but I love them so much and they're so original. I know many people might not like them but personally I think they're really cool and I love the clumpy style.              



Thanks for reading and I hope I gave you some extra clothing ideas and that you enjoyed this post. I also wanted to say thank you to everyone who's followed me and have gotten me to 60 followers in just over a week!

Chokers

☯hai der☯

As you know from my previous post, I decided to tell you about my chokers. I've been wearing them a lot recently and they seem to be quite in right now. There are so many different varieties of chokers, but I'm going to tell you about the ones I wear.

I thought I'd start off with something relatively simple, like my tattoo choker. I really like this choker because it goes with anything and looks really cool. I know this sounds quite stupid, but when I first put on this choker, obviously you have to stretch it over your head to get it on; but it made it quite loose and I thought I'd completely broken it! But it turns out after a while they go straight back to normal and adjust to the size of your neck. The same goes for when you remove it too. You can get tattoo chokers from many shops, but mine specifically came from Topshop, when I was shopping with my friends. I got it for £5, which may seem quite expensive but it seems to be the general price for chokers and unless you lose it, it'll last you forever! I thought I'd suggest some other shops, if you don't have a local Topshop, so here are a few that I know of: New Look, Asos, Ebay and Amazon, but like I said you can get them from so many other shops. To conclude this choker, some people like chokers that aren't just black so lucky for them, chokers are now being sold in multiple colours.

This is just an example of some of the colours that tattoo chokers are sold in. Others may be: multi-coloured, dark blue, white, grey, dark green, white etc. But buy whatever suits you...

My next choker is a tattoo choker but with a Ying Yang symbol attached to it. One of my best friends Tiegan bought me this for Christmas, I did ask for it but I was so pleased when I opened it! This is £2.99 from New Look and once again can be worn with pretty much anything. Obviously, this is almost identical to the ordinary tattoo style, but I feel this style makes more of a statement.

This next choker doesn't have the tattoo style pattern, instead just a 13inch black waxed cord. It may be a bit hard to make out, but the emblem is a pepperoni pizza. I really like this because it's a bit different and really cool and who doesn't love pizza?! I got this from an online shop called Silver Moon and they sell many other chokers like this with different emblems and necklaces that appeal to all people, so check it out!

This choker is very similar to the previous one as it also has the same cord and came from Silver Moon too. However, I chose to buy one with the Saturn emblem. I like it because it's quite distinct and contributes to a grunge look. A little bit more information on Silver Moon...their prices range from £4-£6, depending on what you're purchasing. They ship worldwide, come in a pretty little bag with a message saying 'thank You!' and if you spend over £20, you receive a free gift.

This final photo of mine, is just to show you layering of chokers. Chokers look good on their own but if layered appropriately, can look even better! Some people layer 2+ plain tattoo chokers together which I think looks really good. Personally, I don't think a plain tattoo choker layered with a tattoo choker with an emblem is very effective but my favourite chokers to layer are the ones shown in the photo to the right. I think the cord and tattoo pattern look well together and to be more specific, I prefer it with the tattoo choker at the top.

Well that's it for this post, but thank you for reading and I hope I helped contribute some choker ideas and information. My next post will be on my MAC lipstick. Thanks again.
