What I'm Wearing today: Well as you all know I tend to be broke twenty four seven even with the 5 jobs I have over summer, due to saving up for a new slr, yet I still seem to have enough to buy new clothes. Who needs to eat anyway? I'm absolutely loving this look, although should really save this for the Autumn/Winter season. This will fit perfect with this seasons trend:'Clans' for Autumn/Winter 12'. Having researched this trend for one of my University design projects I couldn't resist actually creating my own look for the trend itself.
The trend 'Clans' has inspired by rustic elements combined alongside intricate knit patterns, soft leathers and thick suede's, giving a sense of luxury within it's rustic inspired look. Colours consist of fiery tones of oxblood reds, harsh burgundy's, rich chocolate browns and darker tones of blacks and creams bringing warmth to a somewhat dull season. While tartan is another big hit with this trend.
This jumper is an absolutely gorgeous colour and again hitting upcoming trends next season, while the shine on the leggings are perfect if you can't afford disco pants (for example - American Apparel - £70) and want the look for less. I've never been a fan of pointed shoes before, however these suede look shoes seem to go with practically everything in my wardrobe and are a good investment as they work with both evening and day wear. As for the backpack, I found this ideal for when I go back to university as I can fit all my books and even my sewing box in, while again it seems to go well with everything, although the silver detailing is going to be hard to match jewellery with as most of it is gold or brass, still I recommend it for a laid back look to complete an outfit.
