What Milly Wore: Before The Summer

Hi guys,

hope you're all well and enjoying the sun!

I found a few outfit pics that I took before it got so warm

so sorry if they seem a little inappropriate for the current weather.

I Wore:

Stretchy Black polka dot dress - New Look (sale last year)

this is a really versatile every day dress, 

it has a kind of skater dress style which I find really flattering 

Black skull necklace - Tarina Tarantino

I love love love all of tarina tarantino's jewellery,

this is one of here smaller more understated necklaces.

Black Leggings - Primarni

Black Jersey Waistcoat - New Look

I love this waistcoat,

it's great for adding an extra layer and it has pockets too!

Black Pixie boots - River Island 

Folky Print Jersey Wrap Coat - Free People (ASOS sale £40 last year)

I just love this coatigan!

It's so snuggley, and I love the faux embroidery style print.

It's got a bit of a skirt to it too.

Here's a close up of the print on the back

cute eh!

What Milly Wore: Aztec Duffle Coat

Hey-lo there one and all,

Here is what I wore a couple of days ago :)

Aztec Navajo Print Blanket Duffle Coat - £60 Urban Outfitters (sale was £120)

eeeeeepp I love this coat,

I blogged about it a couple of months ago,

so when I saw it half price just after Christmas, I asked for it as my main present!

I really like the print, and the fur hood.

The only thing I would change is that it has no lining which annoys me slightly

but it doesn't stop my love for it!

Stripey Skull Vest - Crafted @ Republic

I've had this vest for a good year or so, and not worn it,

so in my attempt to vary my wardrobe and use everything I own  I added it to my outfit

Black Lace trim vest top - Good Old M&S

I layered this vest underneath for warmth

and for modesty ;)

Brown Speckled / Fleck longline cardigan - Next

I'm loving all the speckled and flecked styles that are about at the moment

I'm sure I wore stuff with multi coloured flecks in as a kid, 

and I think it brings out that feeling of nostalgia in me!

High Waisted skinny jeans - New Look

These are my go too jeans at the moment,

really appreciating anything high waisted.

Maddox Tan Leather Tapestry Satchel Bag - Fossil via TKMaxx £69.99 instead of £200

This bag is gorgeous,

I'd been after a good quality carpet / tapestry bag for a while

I came across this one in tkmaxx and couldn't resist.

Fossil are a really good brand,

and I love the pattern and styling of this bag. 

Tan Leather lace-up boots - Pikolinos RRP £110

I got these boots last week to wear to work

and they are so so comfy, very good quality leather

and I like the slightly Victorian feel they have.

Wearing these boots and the bag together I felt a bit like Mary Poppins

that's all for today,

hope you're all having a lovely week so far

What Milly Wore: Skeleton You Are My Friend

Hello there all of you :)

I've been at work a lot this week, so I thought I'd post an outfit I wore a few days ago!

Burgundy chunky knit boyfriend cardigan - New Look (a good few months ago) £18 ish

This cardy is super warm and comfy,

and I really like the shawl style collar, it feels a little like a smoking jacket!

Black skull oversized t-shirt - Topshop 2 years ago £20 ish

This must be one of my most worn t-shirts,

I love the fit and length, and anything with skulls on is good with me.

Black turban - gift from a friend

My gbf was getting rid of some clothes 

and this is one of the things I  ended up being given

turbans are great for bad hair days and are so much more chic than a beanie.

Black and white polka dot skinny jeans - ASOS 1-2 years ago (sale) £15 ish

I've worn these on the blog before,

they're just so easy to wear with everything, a definite staple of my wardrobe.

Nude coloured slouchy Padlock bag - Marks & Spencer, 2 years or so ago £35

Such a great bag, not real leather but it doesn't bother me.

you would never guess its from m&s!

Dalmatian / Leopard print heart ankle boots - Deena & Ozzy via Urban Outfitters (sale) £30

I got these just after christmas and I adore them,

 they have that fuzzy pony skin type finish which is really cool.

They are super comfy too, which I wasn't expecting. 

Hope you like it my loves

What Milly Wore: Shoe Triplets - Black Studded Slippers

Hi guys,

Today is the start of a new feature that me, Hannah from Bow Dream Nation 

& Caz from My Stylisms thought up when we realised we own a lot of the same shoes!

'Shoe Triplets' :)

Me and Hannah have done 'clothes twins' posts before which went down well, 

so this is a similar kind of  feature, where we each show how we would wear the same item.

Our Shoes this time are:

Topshop Black 'Vectra' Studded Slippers £28

I wore mine with:

Plain Black T-shirt: New Look

Black and White Star Print Trousers:  ASOS

White Multiple Skull Necklace: Jessica Kagan Cushman 

(around £75 in the sale, expensive but I'll keep it forever)

Black Patent Guitar Watch: Marc Jacobs

Nudey Pink Nail Varnish: O.P.I Tickle My Francey

As you can see I stuck to black and white with statement pieces :)

I can't wait so see how the other girls wore theirs,

Hannah and Caz should have their posts up soon so don't forget to go check them out!

What Milly Wore: Shorts & Wedges

*excuse the squinty face, I need to work out how to stop myself doing that!

I'm not gonna lie to you,

when I left the house wearing this outfit, I thought I looked pretty damn good!

However, my boyfriend was not so keen,

and looking at the pictures, I agree with him I don't look quite as I had pictured in my head.

Why brain do you fool me so??

Leather Waistcoat: New Look, at least 4 years ago if not longer

I also have this waistcoat in brow, both real leather

and they couldn't have cost me more than £10 each!

I couldn't do it up as I'm much bigger now than when I bought it

however with the use of a hair bobble I managed to keep it closed which looked much better

Plain Black T-shirt: New Look

Aztec Print Shorts: New Look

No idea why I'm wearing so much New Look at once!

Love these shorts, great aztec pattern ( had to get a 16 to fit round my butt, boo)

If anything a bit too short, but I still love them

Black Bag With Horse Buckle: Miss Selfridge

Sabre Skull Necklace: Galibardy

Black 'slimming' tights: Primark

actually quite impressed with these tights,

they were £3 and although I don't think they are particularly slimming,

I did feel well held in, without being restricted

and they didn't fall down and were quite comfy

Burgundy Suede 'Ruby Tuesday'  Wedge boots: Clarks Originals

First time I've worn them

and I really like them... a whole lot

but I am not used to walking in any kind of heel at all

must practice more!

xXx

What Milly Wore: The Birds

Hi guys, this is an outfit I wore last week :)

Bird Print Cropped top: Topshop (a year or so ago)

Black Maxi Skirt: From a Clothes swapping party (free)

White Quilted Bag: New Look Sale (ages ago)

I couldn't seem to find a flattering picture of this outfit, 

but I really thought it looked good at the time!

Studded Slipper Shoes: Topshop £28 (new)

These shoes are so so so incredibly comfy,

seriously like wearing....... slippers! ;p

Also if you're wondering I used Mac Lip Erase on my lips :)

xXx

What Milly Wore: Floral Dress

Butterfly Necklace: Cath Kidston

Navy Cardigan: Topshop

Floral Dress: Warehouse (Sale £15)

Cropped Leggings: ASOS (Sale £4)

Black Straptop (underneath): H&M

Tan Leather Bag: Vintage

Rust Coloured Suede Loafers: New Look £24.99

Not much to say about this outfit,

It's not one of my faves,

but It's cool and comfy and I didnt look like a tramp!

What Milly Wore: Tan Leather & High Waisted Shorts

 

Firstly, I have no idea why my head is at that funny angle ( I do apologise )

This is what I wore a couple of days ago

Oversized Sunglasses: £6 Next Sale

Grey Military T-shirt: Zara (last year)

High Waisted Denim Shorts: New Look (this season)

 These are my new absolute faves, I love to wear them

and they are so versatile!

Black Leggings: Topshop

Tan Leather Loafers: Office (this season)

Tan Leather Plaited Belt: £8 Next Sale

What I really like is that you can do this belt up anywhere along the length,

so you can wear it on your hips, or waist without it looking odd

Tan Leather Bag: Vintage £3

xXx

What Milly Wore: Christopher Kane + Galaxy = Win

 Hello Ladies (and Gents)

I love today's outfit lots :)

Here is what I wore today:

Brown Sunglasses: Next Sale £6 (New)

These sunglasses are seriously awesome, the arms are a bit weird

they look upside down sometimes but they are not, I love them anyway though!

And great for covering up on a no make-up day like I had today

Baboon T-shirt: Christopher Kane (Via eBay last year)

What a show stopper eh, I think it cost about £100 which I know is expensive but it's really unique!

I love a good photographic / digital print.

Vintage Look Denim Shorts: New Look £19.99 (New)

These shorts are fab, they go with everything

Had to get a 16 to fit round my ever growing arse, 

which means the waist is big but they are fine with a belt!

I like to wear them high waisted with a t-shirt tucked in too!

Purple Galaxy Leggings: Black Milk (New)

Arrgghhh I love these, you know I'm a fan of galaxy print and these just blow my mind.

I think I slightly prefer the black galaxy leggings I was wearing last week, but only because they are a bit easier to wear! They aren't cheap at $70 (£50 ish including postage)

But you can't really get anything similar anywhere else!

Yummy leggings of joy!

Black Gem Studded  'Crazy Horse' Leather Boots: Russell & Bromley (Christmas 2009)

These boots are incredible, I've vowed to wear them more, to get my use out of them!

They were in the sale reduced from £300 to £200

and then me and my mum went halves on them as my Christmas present

Black Leather Biker Bag: Angel Jackson (Via eBay)

I've said it before and I'll say it again

I love Angel Jackson, they make the most incredible bags

British and Independent what more could you ask for!

I bagged this one for £90 on eBay after some skilful bidding!

See you soon :)

Horse Print Dress: AllSaints (sale a few seasons ago)

Studded Leather Boots: River Island (last year)

Oh My Word, I cannot explain how much I love these,

I also got another pair in a different colour so watch out for those soon!

 Galaxy / Glitter Print Bag: Peter Pilotto for Kipling (SS11, in the sale on the Kipling Website)

Large Horseshoe Necklace: Tatty Devine

I love all the prints in this outfit,

they just seem meant for each other no?

Anyway this has inspired me to be more adventurous with what I way, clashing prints etc :)

What do you think of printed leggings?

(and btw please excuse my squinty eyes, I have no idea how that happened!)
