OOTD: Springtime floral trousers






Outfit:
Black chiffon t-shirt: c/o F&F
Black and yellow floral trousers: c/o F&F
Beige midi trench coat: Zara (similar)
Yellow peeptoe heels: Karen Millen (similar)

What's that? Sun? Yes it is! Fingers crossed it's here to stay. You can never win with outfit pictures though - it was so bright when we took these!

I was asked by F&F to style up my take on Springwear fashion.  As soon as I spotted these floral trousers in the New In section, I knew they had to be mine. Then when I realised I had these yellow heels tucked away in my wardrobe I knew it was fate. I also got this chiffon black tee. It's got a cheeky little split at the back with loose short sleeves. I love the contrast of fitted trousers with a loose flowing top. The trousers fit like a dream and I've already got my eye on some more floral trousers on the website. F&F just seem to do spring/summer fashion so well. I'm waiting for some of the pieces I spotted at their press day to drop then I'm having a spending spree!

When I look into your eyes I see something that money can't buy





Outfit:
Green floral midi wiggle dress: ASOS (similar)
Yellow peep toe heels: Karen Millen (similar)
Grey and yellow laser cut clutch: Primark (similar)

I was on a spending ban and then during a daily browse on ASOS - I'm not the only one who does this surely?! - I spotted this in the sale and promptly added it to my basket. There was an additional 15% off sale code so it came to £21, down from £48. I couldn't not buy it right? That's what I'm telling myself anyway. There's just something about the shape and style of this dress I've fallen in love with. My collection now consists of three and I'm trying to think of an excuse to buy another one. These shoes were a very kind hand me on from my mum's boss after she bought them in the sale and they turned out to be too small. Luckily for me they fitted just right! The colour is gorgeous and I've been itching to wear them for the past few months but just never found the right dress. Another reason why the dress was a good buy...

This morning I'm doing a bootsale with my nan and then rushing back home to get ready for a curry in Brick Lane this afternoon. I was kindly given a voucher via work so looking forward to stuffing my face with one of my favourite cuisines. You can't beat a Sunday afternoon stroll along Brick Lane - it's one of my favourite places in London.

Have you got anything planned for today?
