OOTD - Shearling




Ok I'm a naughty blogger, not updating, but I'm back on the ball now and have got a cracker for ya.

I'm back at university now, and I am really enjoying myself. Third year, and its going swell, I'm on track to be a big Tv exec! Not really but at least I'll be well dressed when I fail. As well as that I have my little car still, I managed to bagsy myself some Glasto tickets, I'm getting more hours at my part time job at Schuh so I'm really happy at the moment!

As well as that, being back in Liverpool means I get to shop in some of the best shops everrrrr, 'cos Liverpool is a great city to shop in and work in. It's got L1 and Bold Street which is great for Charity shops and Vintage buys.

Anyway on with the OOTD - The shearling jacket is EVERYWHERE!! It's great for winter, it's cool, it goes with practically everything, and every shop has their own design so you and your friends can all have different designs. There is the classic aviator leather jackets, but there are also different types, such as the Denim shearling jacket, and the Parka shearling jacket. The cuff can be lined with fur and sheepskin or whatever furry material you like!


My particular jacket is a one-off from Oxfam for £20! It doesn't fit perfectly but I love it! It's so warm and I can really wear it with anything. Here for your entertainmentI've paired it with a laid back outfit.


As you can see I went with the Aviator style, choosing the large collar, and turned up cuffs. The buckle detail is also really great and adds more dimension to the jacket. I put on some cheap style tan brogues from Primark and some ripped, torn jeans. This outfit is really comfy and I felt confident wearing it all day, as well as pretty damn on trend if I do say so myself.
Like I say you can wear it with everything, I've seen it being specifically styled alot with tartan skirts so if that's something you like go for it!

Anyway I promise I've got more outfits coming including Velvet, Khaki, and Masculine trends.

What are you wearing this winter? Are you liking the shearling jacket or just sticking with your winter coat?

These Boots Were Made For Walking...



Oh yes. They definitely were. And that's just what they'll do.





Black brogue wedges with studs!
Shoes are something bigger girls can always rely on, my feet will never change and I'm nearly always a size 7, apart from in Topshop who are bastards with sizing anyway.

I work in Schuh, I'm not sure if they're all over the world but they're definitely in the UK. They sell Irregular Choice, and I've always been a bit on the "they're too expensive for how naff they actually are" side of Irregular Choice, but they're a big seller, especially in Liverpool where the girls love high heels.

Now my store has not had these in. If they did I would definitely change my opinion on the brand Irregular Choice. And for this I am very angry, no outraged, at being withheld these works-of-art. I have been saving my 40% discount for something very special, and I cannot afford £125 on the Irregular Choice website. (I'm a size 7, euro 40 btw just in case anyone wants to buy me these)

I can't really walk in heels, but these with a hidden wedge and a not to high slope, and with being fastened in I can walk in wedges. I will wait and see if they come into Schuh, if not I'll have to suffer with some poor imitation from New Look for £25.



Which every Tom, Dick and Harry will have, although they are still lovely, just not as beautiful as the Irregular Choice. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet, stop moaning, get what I pay for and just lust after.

Anyway Bravo Irregular Choice, a beautiful, wearable shoe that anyone can wear.
