Black and Gold

(Photography by Will Epps, check out his online portfolio here)

Just hanging out under a bridge in leather hotpants and 6 inch wedges, you know, as you do...

I actually wore this outfit to a leaving do on Friday in Manchester and rather liked it so recreated it with some better shoes! The shoes are a new addition to my shoe family and are from Office. They have a velvet curved wedge and thick elastic wrapping round your feet, I absolutely adore them. Plus, they're very comfortable!

The black and gold jumper is from Topshop and it has teeny shoulder pads which make me feel a bit like a robot, in a good way. The shorts are from Henry Holland's collection for Debenhams, a collection which is, on the whole, a barrage of colour and pattern but if you look there are some amazing pieces in there.

Hunching is not a flattering angle for me... Ah well...

ALSO, it looks like I'll be in London on Friday if anyone knows of any interesting things going down and would like to let me know... Or if anyone wants to have a bloggers meet up just get in touch!

Love the shoes! And I actually kinda like the 'leaning' pose in first pic.

Another wonderful outfit post. I really like the jumper. I like how the gold extends onto the sleeve, but only the top of the arms. It's a really nice touch. Also, those shoes! I have become a shoe fiend recently, falling in love with many a pair, and office have made so many beautiful shoes recently. The velvet wedge is gorgeous!

Great outfit! I get annoyed with myself when I put together a great outfit, but I get too lazy or whatever my reason may be that day to photograph it and blog it. Then I often forget to re-do it. Damn me!

Those wedges = YES! You think I can get stuff from Office shipped here without outrageous shipping costs? Hmmm. Oh and honey those shorts on you are pretty fabulous, and the hunch isn't good on me either (yes I tried it strictly for modeling on fvncy haha).

KeepItFvncy,

I love those heels on you!

Nice shots again. You are coming to London. How long are you here for? Looks like you will be bringing the rain with you :-). When I went to Uni in good old M/C my granddad bought me an umberella and told me I would need it as it was the wettest place in the world he had ever been to :-). It did come in handy. Mind you I never lost the habit of carrying one with me at all times since then. There is one in my bag even today. I dont know what I am up on Friday yet, but if I am free it would be lovely to meet for a coffee. Thank you as always for your lovely comments. I am also loving your new id shot. Its one of my favourites from that shoot. Xxx

I adore those shoes! I'm addicted to wedges just now as they are so comfy and I'm imagining that the elastic only adds to the comfort. x

Charlotte said...

I'm so glad you've started doing outfit posts - not only do you look fabulous, but I feel less of a narcissist. Win - win.
