OOTD: Aztec & Leather

19 December, 2011




Cardigan: Urban Outfitters, £50, Top: AllSaints Sale, £30, Skirt: Peacocks Sale, £6, Shoes: H&M, £24.99


I'm back to my normal self today with no hint of pink whatsoever! I feel much more comfortable in dark colours and I personally believe they suit me much better. I bought this cardigan in the Bristol store in January on the day of my birthday. I wasn't completely certain whether to buy it at first because of it being so pricey, but I've definitely got my wear out of it the past year. I've worn it hundreds of times and it's still in one piece, which really does show that spending a little extra on a good quality item is well worth it.

These shoes were a little Christmas present to myself. I know I shouldn't have but I literally couldn't resist! They're the comfiest wedges in the world and they're so huge! The photo doesn't show very well because of the dark winter lighting, but they're actually a contrast of faux leather and faux suede. It's official, I'm in love! I'll be getting plenty of wear out of them over the winter period.
