guest blog post

Today’s guest post is by the lovely Christina at Kimi & Me, where she’ll be talking about all things Texture, with a small little thing by moi, too! 😉

1: Velvet High Neck Top (ASOS)//2: Check Mesh Top (New Look)//3: Fluffy Crop Jumper (Topshop)

Christina: I really love the fluffy jumpers and cardigans in Primark at the moment, they have become a very popular buy. So much so they have sold out in the Primark near me. It is the perfect texture for A/W, so soft and cosy to wear. Topshop also offer plenty of textured knits (I have my eye on a pink fluffy top). I would also love a faux leather skirt, as it would be such a fun staple piece to style. My favourite item (above), is the velvet check top from asos. The velvety fabric, and colours are such a lovely combination, and this top would be ideal for those Christmas parties (not long til it’s that time of year!)

Tolly: My favourite item from above has go to be the mesh top! As you all know, I love me some Tulle and mesh, so this is definitely a nice piece in my opinion! Subtle but eye catching. Really nice for A/W 🙂

4: Quilted Panel Top//5: Check Embellished Top//6: Faux Leather Panel Top (All Topshop)

Christina: Mixing/layering textures can give an outfit a whole new look, and feel. When it starts to get cold out, I love to layer different prints and fabric together, even if it’s just adding a scarf/stole.

Tolly: I love mixing textures, and Topshop have got it spot on! My favourite has got to be the quilted top! I know there is a similar one in Primark, so I’m keeping my eyes open for it!

Today’s guest blog is from Adora Mehitabel. Adora is going to show you her best thrifty buys she has bought recently. Do make sure to check out her blog and enjoy!

Adora: I am a huge lover of thrifty buys, I do love a good bargain! I mix my thrifty buys with high street bargains, vintage & things I make. These are my top picks at the moment, they are mostly from carboot sales & some pieces from charity shops. I go to the carboot nearly every weekend, I normally come back with a bag full of treasures. I feel every piece is so unique & I get it dead cheap, and you wouldn’t even think they were 2nd hand after having a good wash. I really encourage you to try carbooting, see what you pick, you will seriously be so surprised! It is also a great way to recycle clothes instead of chucking them out. I would love to see what you get, send me your links.
