Black & White Sporty Vibes


White long sleeved top | Mango
Genuine leather jacket | Mango Kids (sold out; faux leather new season leather biker here)
Pants | ASOS Petite 
Watch | Nixon
Sneakers | G-Star Raw
Sunglasses | Zara

This is a look I'll definitely want to wear to work but I can't (no sneakers in the office unless there's a medical condition involved) so I switched the sneakers to a pair of heels for work. This pair of trousers is my absolute favourite. I have it in brown and maroon too and I think I'll definitely want to get another black pair if it goes on sale! It's super comfortable and has pockets!! I also have another very similar pair in navy and it is of ankle grazer length but sadly the pockets on it were faux :/ Ohwell, the fit is still really great and I'm so thankful that ASOS Petite makes UK2 now because it fits me so much better. The trousers and jeans now fit me well and some skirts do too (some skirts and shorts are still too loose).

Love the layers in this top as well as the v-neckline. I have been contemplating having it altered into a short sleeved top instead so I can layer it with more jackets. We shall see if that really happens! It's a really easy throw on blouse for work and matches all my trousers well.

Sporty Minimalist


Tee dress | thrifted
Clutch | M)phosis
Sneakers | G-Star Raw
Watch | Nixon
Cap | Izzue

I've always been a fan of sports-inspierd looks. This one is so chic and comfy - great for running errands (which I did) and having brunch (with my mum, I did!)

Got these gorgeous sneakers in a sale last winter and I love them so freaking much. I don't usually adore patent leather at all (sometimes I even hate them) but this one just makes me feel like I can finally accept it. There are patent trimmings along the side of the shoes but together with the matte leather and suede, it looks really cool and makes the shoe more exciting. High cut sneakers are also great for sneaking some height in - I've added a 2.5cm insole in this pair of sneakers. They're really comfy and easy to dance in as well.

I've styled some sports-inspired looks previously too but have never going minimalist with it and I'm glad it turned out this well! I kept my accessories simple and I'm loving the necklace with both Ian's name and mine on it. I had it custom made in London at the Spitafield's Sunday market but I wished that the chain that came w the necklace was slightly more polish looking. I'm currently on a hunt for an alternative long chain to match the bar pendent.

Thanks for reading!
