The cord skirt

Sometimes it's great to be simple and understated but still feel like you've made an effort but done it effortlessly, you know what I mean. I feel like the cord skirt combined with my fave suede jacket does the job. 

It can be casual yet chic and also dressed up. Outfits that can go from day to night are definitely the one on summer days out with no time to change or straight out after work.

Here's yesterday outfit (first picture) and today's outfit (pictures to follow), dressed for a lovely meal with the family, wearing the cord skirt a bit more dressed up.

                     Fedora: Topshop

                     Cami top: Topshop

                     Cord skirt: Topshop

                     Suede jacket: mango

                     Boots: Boohoo

                     Belt: Primark

Dressing the skirt up with an old time favourite pair of matalan shoes believe it or not. The fringe bag is from a boutique in Wales which is also an old time fave. Not forgetting a touch of Chanel No. 5, courtesy of my stylish Nan. Who is definitely a style icon.

Sundaze

My delicious breakfast this morning, consisted of: weatabix, banana, blueberries & honey with pure orange juice in my new A mug!

This weekend I thought i would make the short travel home again from Manchester to Cheshire to spend some more quality time with the fam.

We have recently had our kitchen/dining area done and I must say hats off to my mum, it's gorgeous! She definitely could have dabbled in a bit of interior design! A field I wouldn't mind going into later on in life after fashion.

It has been lovely just relaxing and seeing family and popping out shopping with my mum and nan which is one of my favourite things to do. They treated me to a fab boho cord style A line skirt from a topshop and a bargain play suit from new look! Perfect for Croatia (I will post them soon).

Now we're definitely thinking it... It's time for the sun to come out and stay out! Apparently it's supposed to be heating up this week, fingers crossed!

For the short intervals of sun that did exist over the weekend I took my new mules out for a ride. They were a bargain from Primark and look just like the Topshop ones.

Outfit shots from this weekend and last bank holiday are posted below.
