The first thing is this big, chunky grey cardigan from Bershka. It's knitted, so it's really warm, and perfect for over leggings or skirts with just a plain black top on underneath. I love the pleather lining along the neckline and the tops of the pockets.
Next are these highrise black leggings from Abercrombie & Fitch. They're a thick material, and with the detailing along the leg and little zips at the top, they're great to wear as normal pants as well as leggings.
Excuse the creases, but I just love this white blouse from Forever 21. It's simple and neat, with gorgeous embroidery along the top. It hangs beautifully when worn, and I'd pair it with skinny jeans, or tucked into high-waisted shorts.
I ordered this dress off Missguided for a night with my friends a few weeks ago, and I wish I had more places to wear it! It's a bodycon style (it doesn't look like it in the picture) with a slightly cinched waist to give shape. I especially love this because you can always dress it down with black tights, chelsea boots and an over-sized cardigan.
Next is this adorable lace dress from Forever 21 that I'm planning on wearing on Christmas day. It has a high neckline and a little cut-out at the back, and the skater style suits the dress perfectly.
The last clothing item is a cable knit cream jumper from Jack Wills. I had been searching for a nice cream/beige sweater for so long, and I can't stop wearing this one. It was quite expensive, but luckily I was returning another item, so it was just an exchange!
River Island always have the best accessories, and I adore this houndstooth print headband. The wire inside allows you to turn it into any shape, so there's not fear of it being too big or too small.
Onto makeup, this next purchase is actually a Christmas present bought early, but I thought I'd show you it because I can't wait to use it! It's MAC's Amber Lights eyeshadow, which is brilliant for bringing out blue eyes, as the orange undertones contrast with blue. This is also the beginning of my first MAC palette, which I'm so excited to fill up.
Last is this purple/berry toned lipstick from NYX. I always find it hard to find a nice lipstick shade that suits me, as most pinks are too light or too bright, and a lot of reds I've tried just don't work. However, I'm obsessed with this! Berry tones are everywhere this time of year, and this lipstick in Violet Ray is really moisturizing, and can be worn sheer or built up into full-on purple.
Thanks so much for reading!
