The Power of Love

Happy Saturday everyone! My outfit post today is featuring the Herringbone Mango blazer I have been a bit obsessed with lately! It's part of the Kate Moss for Mango A/W 12 collection and I bought it not too long ago with some left over birthday vouchers! I was pretty chuffed I managed to only spend £39.99 on it and in my mind you really can't argue with those prices, so it was added to my wardrobe a.s.a.p! It's pretty warm and cosy due to it's over sized masculine styling so it has been keeping me toasty now the weather has taken a turn for the colder!


The jeans I'm wearing are from the Premium Denim range at Oasis. They've got a leather-look coating to give the appearance of leather without actually being leather themselves! I was a bit wary to try them at first as I'm not too much of a fan of squeezing myself into tight, uncomfortable little numbers but I can honestly say they are soooo comfy as they fit and have the feel of jeggings! Perfect! I also wore it with my classic black Topshop bag which I think I have had for about 6-7 years now! It's treated me so well despite the fact I always lose stuff in it as it's deceptively 'Mary Poppins' style in it's largeness! The little friendship bracelets are from Republic for only £4 each. They're so cute and pick-me-up I just had to have them!


Herringbone Short Coat: Mango £39.99 // Premium Coated Jean in Black: Oasis £45 // Boots: Miss Selfridge £N/A // Miso Spiked & Love Bracelet: Republic £4.00 each // Bag: Topshop £N/A 




 Hope you all have a lovely weekend whatever you get up to! I'm finally seeing the latest James Bond film this weekend so hopefully it will live up to all the good reviews I've heard about it!



PS. On a very separate note, have you all seen the new John Lewis Christmas advert? SO CUTE. It definitely rivals last years as possibly the most tear jerking ad, (yes I do find loved up snowmen moving) and if your a regular reader you will know I have a massive music crush on Gabrielle Aplin who is doing an amazinggg cover of Power of Love as the soundtrack for it! Check it out!

  3. The jacket is so amazing, and I'm sure you will get a lot of wear out of it to compensate for the price anyways. Great blog. I'm a new follower :)
