OOTD • B&W

Hi everyone!

Lately, the weather has been super hot and sunny in Malta. So to spice things up, the weather decided to be cloudy and windy two weekends ago, how kind of him! And since it was a bit chilly, I opted to layer my outfit with the softest and cosiest garment I own. I got this jacket from DressLily - an affordable online clothing and accessory store. 

The product description on the DessLily website states that this jacket is made from Lycra, but I'm pretty sure that the material is fleecy-like. The hooded jacket, which is also available in grey and coffee, came with a thin leather-like belt, but I decided to not wear it. The only downside to this jacket is that it only comes in one size, but I would say it would still fit a wide range of sizes. 

The rest of my outfit consisted of a simple Raglan sleeve top teamed with a pair of black jeans. For the shoes, I opted to wear a pair of Tiberland look-alike boots I bought a couple of years ago from a local shop. To accessorise the outfit, I simply wore my current favourite ring - the Ganesha Elephant Amulet Ring by Dixi - as well as a thin silver knuckle ring, also from DressLily.

OOTD • Spring Florals

Hi everyone!

Regular readers of my blog will surely remember my latest Store Spotlight post, where I introduced you to an amazing online clothing store where everything is sold for just £5.00 - Just For 5 Pounds [read the post here]. I was lucky enough to receive a pretty floral dress from the lovely people at this store, and I couldn't not wear it immediately once I got it, even though the weather was quite cold on the day.

Perfect for the coming Spring/Summer season, this red dress has a floral pattern all over it, making it super fun and girly. To continue with the 'girly' theme of the dress, I accessorised with a dainty collar necklace and a stone ring. Partly due to the not-so-warm weather and partly due to wanting to toughen up this outfit, I layered the dress with my all-time-favourite leather jacket which I literally wear all the time, and finished off the look with a pair of black cut-out boots.

OOTD • Sammydress Androgyny

Hi everyone!

I have quite an obsession with menswear clothing, and I seriously wish I was a man just for the sake of being able to wear all of their clothes. I'm a girl though, so the closest I can get to wearing a man's outfit outside my home is by putting together an androgynous style outfit. And that's what I did in this OOTD.

I first teamed a classic white shirt, which even features a black bow detail and peter pan collars, with a pair of black trousers. Since it's still relatively cold, I layered my outfit with a black/grey/white masculine-style speckled coat, and finished off the look with a black fedora hat and a pair of patent burgundy brogues. These brogues, which are also available in black, feature a cute little bow on each shoe - perfect to add a feminine touch to this outfit. Their thick heel, which is less than 3cm in height, makes them the comfiest, and I'm seriously considering getting them in black as well.

OOTD • Tartan is ALL I Need!

Hi everyone!

As if I don't already have enough tartany pieces in my wardrobe, I have now added a new item: a gorgeous - and very soft & cosy I must add - red plaid scarf from Persunmall. The justification I gave myself before I actually got this accessory was that all the other items are made from Black Watch tartan, so this is actually the first red check piece I own.

This scarf is definitely the main focus of my look, since as usual, I wore an all-black ensemble made up of a pair of black trousers, a plain black top, and my newly purchased Shearling leather jacket. With regard to the shoes, I wore my JC Everest boots, and finished off the outfit with a black zippered PU clutch. Since this bag is quite big, it has room for so many things - in fact, even my iPad fits perfectly - and I will certainly be using it for those events when I need to carry quite a number of things but when I don't actually need my DSLR.

OOTD • Blacked-Out

Hi everyone!

I wore this simple but gorgeous FD Avenue fringed dress yesterday night! Being a jersey dress makes it perfect for the current hot weather as it is so lightweight and soft. And its fringes make it look even more summery and fun in my opinion. I had first styled it with my white Converse as I wanted to give it a sporty feel, but I didn't quite like how the outfit turned out. My trusty Jeffrey Campbell came to the rescue once again and I think it looked ten times better styled with this pair. 

I accessorised the outfit with a silver chunky chain necklace and two rings - a black rivet ring and a silver ring with leaf detailing.  I had mentioned that I wanted the black ring in my latest wishlist, and I love it even more in real life! It fits me perfectly too! While browsing the Persunmall website, I also fell in love with the leaf ring, but unfortunately it is a bit too small for my somewhat chubby fingers. Nonetheless, I wore it as a knuckle ring, so SCORE! I then finished off the look with Topshop's Lip Bullet in the shade 'Rockabilly' (also mentioned in my July wishlist). I can't stress enough how much I love this colour, and I seem to be wearing it each time I go out!

OOTD • Black with hints of Lilac

Hi everyone!

I have no words to describe my feelings towards this mesh dress from Choies except that I love it and it is possibly my current favourite piece of clothing in my wardrobe. I have teamed this cut-out detail dress with a pair of polka dot tights, over the knee socks and my all-time favourite shoes - the Jeffrey Campbell Everest.  To accessorise the outfit, I added a thin tan belt to define my waist and finished off the look with a gorgeous lilac floral crown.

PS: Excuse my messy hair but it did not cooperate...at all!

Dress*: Choies // Jeffrey Campbell Everest: Office // Floral Crown*: Pixie Lott x Rock 'N Rose

Belt: Stradivarius (old) // Tights: Primark (old) // Over the knee socks: Primark

OOTD • Tattooed Lady

Hi everyone!

It's finally time for my first ever OOTD post! I wore this simple outfit on a laid back Sunday afternoon with the boyfriend. The spot where we took these photos was perfect and goes really well with the whole edgy feel of the dress. And speaking of the dress..how gorgeous is it's tattoo print pattern? Being handmade in the UK, it features a vintage lace collar and a handmade velvet bow, and I also received a stag pin as an optional embellishment for the bow. Needless to say, I wore the stag! 

Dress*: Uncommon Nonsense // Blazer: Pull & Bear (old) // Loafers: Local shop (similar here) // Rings: ASOS

I totally recommend checking out the Uncommon Nonsense website, especially if you're into fairytale, grunge, kitsch, edgy and vintage pieces. You will surely find something you love! And I'll leave it as a surprise, but their packaging is THE BEST EVER :)
