Mandala

Dress – MeeMee by Motel* | Shirt – Urban Outfitters | Boots – Topshop

So I have stayed true to my word and ended up with another piece in Motel’s fab Mandala print! I really love the fit of this dress from MeeMee, it’s the perfect relaxed fit for casual wear but could easily work with some big chunky heels for a night out. I’ve already gone on enough about how much I like this print (see my posts featuring the Mandala Kimono here and here), but it definitely works on this dress equally well. I paired it with all black some silver accessories (the longer necklace was a bargain £2 from Primark) and a deep purple lip (Mac’s ‘Media’).

Lacesuit

Playsuit – Motel @ MeeMee.com* | Shoes – SheLikes* | Sunglasses – ASOS | Earrings – Primark

In my opinion, some of Motel’s best pieces are playsuits – I own 3 myself! This white lace number from MeeMee.com is my most recent of these, and it’s perfect for summer. I have no festival plans this season, but if I did this would definitely be in my bag. Here I’m wearing it with these very summery (and very comfortable) strappy heeled sandals from SheLikes.com. The heel is approximately 3.5 inches, so they are low enough to be comfortable to spend an evening in but high enough to avoid falling into the dreaded kitten heel category. I’m also wearing ASOS sunglasses and fab clear gem earrings, which were only £3 from Primark.

Flower Power

Playsuit – MeeMee* | Necklace – Fashion Nonsense* | Jacket – Topshop | Boots – Topshop | Bag – H&M

Yesterday I took a little ‘revision break’ trip to the cinema to see Iron Man 3 (would recommend!), and this is what I wore. I love the summery print of this MeeMee playsuit, but I wanted to ‘toughen it up’ a little to be more weather-appropriate, so I paired it with my Topshop leather biker and Adonis boots and this fab spiked necklace from Fashion Nonsense. My bag is another fairly recent addition – a simple black Givenchy Antigona shaped number, which was a very reasonable £15 (although I managed to bag it for £10 with an online deal a couple of weeks ago) from H&M.

Sister Jane

Dress – Sister Jane @ MeeMee* | Boots – Topshop

Sister Jane is a brand I’ve been fond of for a while (you might remember I did a ‘Brand Love’ post on them back in August last year), so I was super happy to receive one of their dresses from MeeMee.com this week! The dress I’m wearing is the ‘Contrast Collar and Cuffs‘ dress, which MeeMee currently have on sale for £50 (RRP £68). It is reasonably thick and warm, which combined with the 3/4 length sleeves, (faux) leather accents and subtle metallic thread detail, makes it perfect for winter whilst the ‘built in’ collar spikes & chain toughen it up. It’s a great daytime dress with tights and boots and a big coat or leather jacket, but it could easily be dressed up with heels and a faux fur or feather coat like this for a wintery evening out. The fit is true to size in my opinion, and the dress also looks cute belted if you prefer a cinched in waist!

Winter Is Coming

Hat – Primark | Jacket – MeeMee* | Dress – Oh My Love* | Creepers – Underground @ ASOS

Winter is certainly upon us, which means it’s time for wintery textures like faux fur and velvet and of course great coats and jackets. Thanks to MeeMee and Oh My Love I have both of those things in this outfit. The Cropped Wool PU Jacket I’m wearing contrasts the ever ‘on trend’ leather sleeve with a softer wool, and the bomber or varsity silhouette is also perfect for the season and great for layering over short cardigans or jumpers for extra warmth. Underneath I’m wearing the Sarah Black Velvet Peter Pan Collar Dress, which combines a slightly gothic vibe given by the black velvet and longs sleeves with something sweeter in the cream lace collar and cuffs (the cuffs are rolled down in these photos). Think Wednesday Addams but more up to date and cuter thanks to the velvet texture and short a-line hem! The dress is also available in ‘wine’ and ‘midnight blue’ from the Oh My Love website if an all-black look isn’t your thing.

I finished off my outfit with a black faux fur hat (Primark, £6) and black lace socks and Underground creepers which served me well through last winter and will continue to do so!
