Week in photos

Despite my looming exams (first one is tomorrow, wish me luck!!) I’ve still found a million ways to distract myself, one of them of course being taking photos of everything I do for Instagram. Last week, Monday-Sunday consisted of:

Amazing ASOS rings | new Infrareds from my boyfriend | #ootd (Topshop skirt, American Apparel blouse, Primark coat, Romwe shoes) | cute Marc By Marc Jacobs bracelet I won on eBay | amazing £8 shoes from New Look | jewellery and perfume section of my shelves | #nails (Models Own Gold Rush and Soda Pop Pink) | a photo of me | delicious lunch | more amazing ASOS rings | Harry Potter mug which is around 10 years old | my wall full of revision notes | #ootd (Romwe jacket, Primark jumper, Sparkle & Fade blouse, Cheap Monday jeans, Jordan 4s, The Quiet Riot bag) | my Jordans | new Totem Styler from Enrapture* (blog post soon) | pretty dresses from MeeMee* (blog post here) and Motel* (blog post soon) | another Marc By Marc Jacobs braclet I won on eBay | hot chocolate with cream and chocolate orange sprinkles | the collar detail of my Sister Jane dress from MeeMee | Krispy Kreme doughnuts

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!

Brand Love: Sister Jane.

Recently I’ve been seeing a lot more of English/Spanish brand Sister Jane, and I’ve been nothing but impressed! The brand, which was founded in both London and Madrid, combines femininity with edginess and vintage inspiration with current trends to create collection after collection of stunning and completely wearable pieces. Sister Jane have a website which showcases all their collections including the most recent and arguably the most impressive ‘Silver Spells‘, however if you want to purchase something you have to go through one of their stockists, the most popular UK based of which are Topshop and ASOS. Both stockists have selected a good range of Sister Jane pieces, take a look at some of my favourites below – I’m dying for the metallic floral shorts and jacket!
