OOTD: Darkness Approaching

Bomber Jacket - Dirty Harry Ltd

Shirt - Topshop

Leather Skirt - H&M

Brogues - Deichmann 

Another Friday, another birthday dinner to attend. The title of this sounds a little creepy but really I just mean my outfit was basically all black apart from my bomber jacket, and I think it works! Black is probably the only colour you could get away with being the only colour in an outfit. I love this double diamond print shirt, I think it just looks really funky and works well with the skirt. As the skirt is mini, the shirt makes the outfit more covered. These brogues have been my most worn shoe this autumn, they literally go with everything and give any outfit that edge. They are also super comfy and were surprisingly affordable so I definitely suggest Deichmann for reasonably priced shoes. Finally, my burgundy bomber jacket finishes off any outfit and is my favourite item of clothing this fall. 

Happy Tuesday!

OOTD: My Answer To Smart Casual

Overlay Dress - Topshop
Blazer - New Look

Necklace - New Look

Loafers - River Island

So Friday night for my friends birthday we were going out for a meal and the dress code was 'Smart Casual'. I absolutely hate this dress code because I have no clue was smart casual actually is. I feel like every piece in this outfit could be worn in a casual outfit and in a smart outfit, so what makes it smart casual? I had to settle for this, it may be a tad too smart but who cares! These are also all great pieces for Autumn. Firstly, this t-shirt overlay dress from Topshop. Unfortunately it is no longer online but I'm sure could be found in some stores as I only bought it about a month ago. I love the tile print and the colour scheme. The overlay style is also extremely flattering and is perfect for covering up a food baby from a big meal! The over sized monochrome blazer really works well with the dress, even though there is clashing of patterns. This jacket is perfect for the not-so-cold Autumn days and nights and can jazz up any outfit. I've also found that it is quite slimming, so great if you want to hide any lumps and bumps! I call this New Look necklace my Cleopatra necklace, it is just so magnificent. To my surprise it works with any outfit I put it in. The black and gold gives the outfit an edge, the perfect statement necklace! Finally, these burgundy loafers are perfect for day or night. Burgundy is my favourite Autumn colour, giving the outfit that autumnal feel. 

So that is my Autumn answer to 'Smart Casual'. What are your favourite Autumn pieces? Let me know in the comments.
