Outfit: Camel coat - Ebay White tee - Hollister Distressed jeans - Topshop Chelsea Boots - Harry hall bag - Matalan Sunglasses - RayBan
Drum roll please... The one step to pretty much guarantee you look chic and like you have your life together (even if you don't!) is... To add something tailored! Yes I know this is hardly breaking news but I have found no mattered how basic, slouchy or lazy an outfit is, chuck on a nice coat or blazer and you suddenly look like you're a person who knows what they want from life and how to achieve it! No matter how awful a day may be going, as long as I have this coat on I feel like I can conquer the world! Without this coat, the outfit would be a t shirt, ripped jeans and boots. I absolutely love a piece that you can chuck on top of anything to instantly lift and pull a look together! Black blazer, navy pea coat or a classic camel jacket, whether you wear it elegantly nesting on your shoulders or with buttons/zip up a tailored piece of clothing will most definitely smarten and chic-ify (new word alert?!) a look!
I could have worn a nice black turtle neck or crisp shirt, or that said pretty much anything as this coat goes with everything! However I purposely wore a very basic and rough outfit to show the contrast it creates by placing the coat on top! This was an absolute bargain from Ebay as my eyes watered at the thought of spending a wod of cash on yet another coat, but then again how can a girl even survive these days without a camel coat as a wardrobe staple? This is so lightweight I will be wearing it to death both summer and winter! These boots are also an English weather lifesaver as they are riding boots. As much as I love the high street styles, I wear boots all of the time, so need a pair I can rely on to keep my tootsies dry! So many people have asked me where I get these from and always reply with 'Oh really, because my numerous pairs from *popular high street chain ;-) * keep on breaking!' There's no denying a nice trusty pair of boots will love your wardrobe - and your feet!
So go on, put on the slouchiest outfit in the world, leggings, tracksuits, the whole shabang and pop a tailored piece over the top - you won't be disappointed with the outcome! (and if you are, I would love to see pictures of this crazy outfit creation and how you have defied fashion physics!)
You're so gorgeous! Love the coat! ♡
