Two Looks, One London

Travelling Pictures: Saffron

Hi guys I'm back. I just spent about the past 7 weeks travelling through Japan and Thailand. It was good trip where I learnt a lot about myself. Here are some pictures from my travels. If you would like post on exactly where and what I did and some advice and travelling just comment below and I will get on that. I didn't take as many photos as I thought I would. It is mainly beaches and markets but enjoy.

Can We Talk About The SHOES! I am 100% obsessed with everything holographic so when I saw these shoes in the Topshop sale while back I didn't hesitate to put them in my bag. I love that Topshop have combined a funky effect with an elegant style shoe - perfect for someone like me who doesn't want to stick to just one style. I like to switch it up: minimalist one day, print clashing the next, elegant and tailored the next day and streetwear the one after that. I'm not a very chatty person, so in way it's like I'm wearing my mood. Let my clothes do the talking for me. Lol.

Stay tuned for Silver Trousers Part Three, where I pair them with something a little bit unexpected.

See Part One HERE.

I love that Forever 21 have made a lace and leather top that's elegant lol.

I bought these silver trousers in the January sales a few years back and I'm really surprised by how much wear I've got out of them. I actually have two more outfits featuring them lined up for the blog, so stay tuned for those. But I can't go anywhere just yet, because we need to talk about these shoes! I love getting basics (like black shoes) with something a little different on them that makes them stand out. Like a sexy-ass chain! LoL.

I can hardly believe I'm wearing so many layers in the middle of summer. -_- It's bittersweet though because I love layering, it's one of the easiest ways to add interest to an outfit - more is more! Lol. And luckily for me, I'm flying to Jamaica tomorrow, so I can break out all my summer clothes! Yes, you read right, Jamaica! In case you can't tell, I'm pretty excited about it. And it's not just any holiday, oh no, I'm heading out to see one of my best friends get married! Love is in the air...

I will try and shoot a couple of blog posts out there, but I tend not to take that many photos on holiday, I'm usually too busy having fun! And I do have a few blog posts scheduled for while I'm away so I'm not completely disappearing from your screens.

In other news, Saffron is back, yaaaaay!

I'm back with yet another one colour outfit lol. Scored this amazing fur lined bomber jacket from eBay for about a tenner. I don't know if you can see but it says 'Sarah' on the front. Ain't got a clue who she is but she has great taste! Lol.

...Aannndd introducing my beautiful big sister! She's wearing Primark shoes, top and jacket and ASOS jeans. She should start doing her own outfit posts on here, don't you think? In the meantime,you can follow her on Instagram HERE, and it's her birthday today so make sure you wish her a happy birthday!

Hey guys, I'm back with a quick one. I don't shop in Topshop much but practically my whole outfit is from thurr today. And I am definitely a joni jean junkie, I can't get enough of 'em! The high waist is so flattering on me, they're really comfy cos of the stretch and I love that you can pick the leg length cos I am very petite lol. These boots are really cute too, I love the pattern and they're not too high so I can wear them all day without wanting to cry lol.

And I can't go nowhere without talking about this luverly blazer from River Island. In love with the high shine and the cracked texture. I think it adds something different to what is a really simple outfit. Until next time!

Yep, I'm back with another one colour outfit... sort of. Lol. I'm really getting into dressing in one colour, it's really chic and I love playing around with different textures. I think I've got them all in this outfit: lace, chiffon, knit, suede, plastic ( does plastic count...? Lool).

By the way, what do think the first photo? It's my poor attempt at editing. :s I wore this outfit twice with two different tops, so I thought I'd highlight that with two of me on a bench. Lool. I also got myself a halfway decent camera, which I mentioned I was going to do in my last post and it has a few snazzy effects; the one on the fourth photo is called retro. I thought I suited the outfit quite well, kind of gave it a 1940's feel.

Since I've got a new camera I should be posting a bit more in Saffron's absence. It's really hard (not to mention kind of embarrassing lol) shooting yourself with a tripod though. Does anyone else do that? If you do, do you have any tips?

Love, Courtney .x.

This is for everyone who ever wanted to know how much blue you can cram into one outfit without looking crazy. We try these experiments so you don't have to! We like to do our bit for society every now and then lool. I managed seven pieces: ring, earrings (which you can’t see, so you'll just have to take my word for it), jeans, jumper, jacket, bag and sunglasses.

Things I learned during this experiment:

1. Choose different shades when doing a one colour look

2. Play around with different fabrics and textures

3. You cannot, I repeat, cannot over do it (you can, I jest. I may have, I don't care)

4. Find a random car the same colour as your outfit to shoot in front of (that's right, it's not even my car, it was just parked there when we were shooting, how serendipitous is that! Lol.)

SMALL LIFE UPDATE: Saffron is off gallivanting around South East Asia for the next Millennia without me (booo!) and even more selfishly, took her camera with her, hence the lack of posts, but I am planning to get my own (using her staff discount I might add, so I hope she doesn't read this... lol). I am settling in to a new job, thank the Lord, so I guess you could say we have both embarked on adventures (which is what people tell themselves when their other blogger half is backpacking around South East Asia and they’re stuck in the office).

Until next time, Sayonara!

Just a simple outfit a wore a couple of weeks ago, when the weather was a little cooler. The sun's finally out, (yay!) but I still find myself reaching for jumpers and cardigans sometimes because the wind is ridiculous! Lol.

I'm so obsessed with black lipstick guys, it just makes a simple outfit like this so edgy. Top tip: if you're too cheap (like me) to buy a decent black lipstick, just use any old eyeliner pencil to fill in your lips! I use Rimmel Special Eyes Eyeliner Pencil in Black Magic. I just had it lying around the house lol.

I'm still in love with my Jeffrey Campbell trainers. I wear them alllllll the time. I haven't shown a close up of them before, so ta-da! Lol. I swear, nearly every pair of shoes I wear, there's a gap at the back! Does anyone else get that? It's so annoying, it looks like I'm wearing someone else's shoes! I must have weirdly skinny ankles or something. Grrr. On that random note, bye!
