A hint of femininity

Ganni 'Laguna' mesh dress, Ganni bomber jacket, COS trousers, Tamara Mellon shoes and Céline bag

I am actually as surprised as you probably are to see myself in a frilly mesh dress. I can't say I feel particularly comfortable showing off my feminine shape (for whatever reason), hence the oversized bomber jacket, but I do think it's fun to at least dress a little more womanly from time to time. And this dress really is amazing, I'm already looking forward to wearing it again - possibly with a pair of biker boots for a bit of contrast.

Flared

H&M Studio blazer, Mango top, J Brand corded flare trousers, Jimmy Choo shoes, COS bag and Ray-Ban sunglasses

Flared trousers are about the only hint of 1970s you'll ever get to see from me. Most of the 70s trends and styles really do not work for me but I definitely love a good flare. Mostly because they just simply make my legs seem a tad longer - could I be more obvious?

Grey suit

Zara blazer, COS tee, Zara trousers, Tamara Mellon shoes, Jimmy Choo 'Candy' bag and Ray-Ban sunglasses This is not technically a suit but boy do I enjoy how this blazer and these trousers go together. Loose fitted and worn with a simple white tee, a pair of heels for some extra length (and confidence) and absolutely no extra frills needed.

Pointed flats

This is a real "high street" tip! Because here new in are these burgundy leather pointed loafers from Dune London that seem to make all my casual outfits just a tad more elegant. I will forever be a fan of burgundy accessories anyway, especially in the autumn season. I find that it's a colour that's almost as easy to combine with everything as black is. image for Fash n Chips [show_shopthepost_widget id="1007491"]

Breezy beach day

Charlie May coat, COS tee, AG loose fit jeans, Adidas slides and Karen Walker sunglasses

I absolutely love being on the beach when there's a nice breeze, gorgeous clouds and, most importantly, very few other people! This particular afternoon earlier this week had all that.. but I was very happy to have brought this ankle grazing coat with me to keep me warm from the (all of a sudden quite chilly) breeze.
