Style Trunk

Dress: River Island

Sandals: Asos

I'm writing this post from a cold and rainy London - it seems that our good weather has well and truly ended and Autumn has arrived in full force. This picture must have been taken at least four weeks ago but somehow slipped through the cracks when it came to posting. Now that I'm back to jeans, boots and jumpers it was nice to come across this forgotten-about outfit pic and be reminded of what a good summer we had!

I love the print of this dress and have worn it to so many different occasions - the long sleeves mean I can wear it through long summer evenings and I can dress it down with flats.

Hat: Topshop

Jumper: Forever 21

Watch: Casio

Shorts: cut-off Levi's

Belt: Topshop

Boots: Kurt Geiger

Sometimes simple is best, and in my books a stripy jumper always looks good. Now that we're making that transition into Autumn (although we have been having a mini heatwave in London the past few days!) I'm enjoying pairing shorts and skirts with light-weight jumpers and mixing seasons up a bit.

This week I'm lusting after this bright orange jumpsuit from Aqua. I doubt my non-supermodel body could pull it off but I love how the wide legs contrast with the structured bodice, and the bright colour is perfect for the burst of sunshine we're enjoying at the moment.

We took full advantage of the free Bellini's!

Ring: Gift

Dress: Paisie

Following the show, we managed to track down the elusive Experimental Cocktail Club in China Town - a bar with no signage but just a black door and a doorman who lets you in if you ask kindly and he likes the look of you. 

Unfortunately this didn't fare well for the following day as I was sliiightly hungover for the bloggers meet up that the lovely Sophie organised. About 25 of us met up for a spot of shopping and lunch at The Diner in Soho, and it was such a nice day - so good to meet bloggers whose blogs I've been following for a while as well as meet new ones, and generally talk clothes and blogging all day!

These grey heels from Asos are my best buy this month. I got them for half price in the sale - £22.50 - fabulous! I love the soft grey and unusual chunky heel and I know they'll look great in a casual outfit with jeans and a tee, as well as with a dressier outfit.
