Jacket - New Look White tee - Primark Denim jeans - H&M Lace ups - Primark Sunglasses - Primark Bag - Zara
Here's the thing, I love basic. I live for basic! When it comes to my everyday attire, I dress in monochrome, denim, with a flash of colour chucked in for good measure. Naturally I love colour when it comes to tropical holidays or workout gear. (In the gym I look like 'workout barbie!') This is literally an example of my ideal outfit - comfortable, chic and build-able. Come night time I would add a flash of red lippy, give my hair a brush and stick on some heels!
I purchased this bag in Covent garden after majorly lusting over it from seeing it all over instagram! I was worried they no longer stocked it, so when I was directed to the only one left my face was a look of pure, shopoholic glee! (How can I get so happy over a bag?!)
Besides this bag, Primark has totally stolen my heart recently! My tee (which I also grabbed in grey marl!), sunnies and lace ups are all from the store and I wear all three pieces to death! Primark has seriously upped it's styled credentials recently, meaning that at the moment, I migrate there whenever I need a fashion fix without the collateral purse damage! Don't even get me started on their adorable interior range and quirky pineapple bedsheets! If you're not a usual Primark goer I urge you to go in there and have a rummage, there's constant gems to be found which won't have your bank balance in tears!

Blouse - H&M Denim shorts - Zara Boots - Office UK Sunglasses - Primark
Those of you on my snapchat, instagram and twitter would have seen my overload of London images from the other week, where I had a day of meetings and shopping planned! It was an absolutely scorching day so I had another, comfier, outfit on me which came sooo handy whilst on my feet all day! I will do this look in another post for you guys - the location we shot it in was beautiful!
Come rain or shine, snow or sunshine, I always wear boots and these babies are definitely my new obsession! I think they really pull an outfit together, however I did swap to my trusty birkenstocks midday as it was that little bit too hot for boots, even coming from me!
I have loads of exciting collaborations to share soon with you guys, including accessories and sunglasses, swimwear and 2 fab skincare brands. Are there any posts you guys are keen to see? I'm open to anything from my fitness/diet regime, lifestyle, what's in my bag or makeup - ask away! It is also Style Petal's first birthday next month - keep your eyes peeled for exciting things!
Faux leather jacket - New Look Shirt - H&M Jeans - Topshop 'Joni' Shoes - Birkenstock Sunglasses - Primark
It's weird to think a year or so ago I despised Birkenstock style shoes - what is it that makes us crush over a trend/piece we once loathed? Personally, I think seeing so many models, bloggers, celebrities and influential fashion babes rocking these just made me lust over them to the point where I began to love them! I already purchased a little pair of bronze Birkenstock's last summer, so when I spotted these for a fraction of the normal price I had to grab them!
Yesterday, as some of you guys who follow my snapchat would have seen, I went to London for some blogger meetings. The heat was scorching and it's safe to say these babies were glued to my feet! I shot a couple of looks for you as well as documenting my day through pictures which I'm going to make a couple of posts for you guys to look over and see what my blogging life involves! (Macarons and Coffee over a meeting - yes please!)
How do you guys style your favourite sandals - is there one trend that you promise yourselves you'll never cave into?
High neck knit - H&M Jeans - Topshop 'Jamie' Lace up shoes - Primark Sunglasses - Primark Bag - Matalan
If there's one thing I always buy far too much of (besides shoes and lipstick!) it's got to be knits! Chunky knits, cable knits, cardigans, jumpers, high necks, you name it! I think it is definitely an essential for all seasons, especially in a country with a climate such as Englands! Even at the height of summer I have one stashed in my bag for when those warm evenings turn a bit chilly! I was obsessing over this chunky knit jumper all winter and thought why the hell have I packed this away already?! I love being able to venture out in less layers in the warmer months, but lets be honest we all have a mac and umbrella on standby!
