A/W is officially here. I must admit it's one of my favourite times of the year. I love my chunky knits and winter boots, wrapping up and layering to create different textures. But just before all that I've taken one of the last opportunities to wear my H&M playsuit! I bought this before I went on holiday and it's become one of my favourite playsuits. I love the fact it has long sleeves so I can keep wearing it right up until winter with some chelsea boots, and the waist band means it's a really great fit. HM really is my go-to highstreet store, whatever the season - and they're A/W 14 collection doesn't disappoint. My recent trip to Bicester Village found me hanging around the Michael Kors store lusting over all the watches. I bought myself a white ceramic one a couple of years back and decided I couldn't break the bank again - so a great alternative this tortoiseshell, brown face gold watch from Asda, which I love! The Channel wasn't a mad moment at Bicester either... It's been passed down the generations and I'm an extremely lucky girl to be it's new owner!

I had a bit of an obsession this year with ASOS Swimwear. Not only are their bikinis bang on trend and really reasonable prices, but their beachwear is amazing.

Palazzo

I'm absolutely obsessed with Palazzo trousers this season. The lightweight material means they're perfect in the sunshine, and they go with everything for any occasion! I wore this outfit for a BBQ on Saturday, teaming it with an ivory crop top for a more casual, relaxed look. As I'm a shorty I wore my new Primark shoe-boots, which I absolutely love, to give me a bit of height as the trousers are quite long! The zip detail just adds that bit extra and for £16 they are such a bargain (see my blog post on my latest Primark haul)! I'm on the look out for some more Palazzo trousers, would love to find a nude pair, so if anyone spots any on the high-street let me know!

Primark Haul

This primark haul has to be one of my favourite yet! As the high street is gearing up for A/W 14, it's a great time to have a sneak peak at what's on trend next season. I know none of us want to say goodbye to Summer, but you never know with British weather and it's best to be wardrobe ready! When it comes to A/W 14, I'm a huge fan of layering! Not only does it look great but it's also a great way to make you stay warm without a coat covering everything up! Primark has some gorgeous waterfall cardigans in, and the green jumper with the shirt collar detail I just love! The coat was love at first sight, it came in beige and navy, but I just found the beige was more practical for next season! It fits really well and it was such a bargain!
I can't get over how amazing Primark accessories and shoes have been both S/S 14 and moving into A/W14! I managed to find myself a pair of the much sought after snakeskin sliders!
Something I've really gotten into is using Primark false nails, both in the french and natural style and then painting them. They do stay on really well and look really good, so i'll definitely be carrying on!
