Woman in Plaid

When a favourite classic gets an elevated upgrade.

As a girl plaid skirts were my obsession. They progressed with me through all my different phases – from my Avril Lavigne ‘punk’ rock stage to my Lindsay Lohan ‘I wear Pink on Wednesday’ stage. It seems old habits die hard because it’s back in my closet but with a womanly update.

This skirt very clearly proves my point that plaid skirts aren’t just for little girls, they are very much for the modern woman. The colour combination is slightly more sophisticated than the classic black and red, making it an easy piece to match. The fact that it’s wool is one of my favourite parts, because it’s perfect for an autumn outfit!

I wore this outfit on a day out with my mother. It was perfect for hitting the stores and just having a lovely day out. Paired with my thigh high boots I managed to stay quite warm. I was a bit late to the Stuart Weizmanan boots party but I totally understand why everyone is obsessed with them. They have to be one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes that I own! I highly recommend investing in a pair.

Colour of the Month: Bubblegum Pink

At one point or another, you thought this was your favourite colour. Let’s bring that back

We’ve seen it on the Gucci ‘it’ bag of the season, it’s all over our Pinterest boards and I”m sure you’ve all attempted to recreate the infamous tumblr photo, Girl with Giant Bubblegum Bubble. If you haven’t guessed yet, this month’s colour of the month is none other than the gorgeous, Bubblegum Pink. Although it seems like one of the most overwhelming shades of pink, bringing to mind Gretchen Weiner/Regina George’s whole wardrobe, I guarantee its one you can incorporate into your next look without looking like a Mean Girl.  So other than the obvious of Pink and White  & Pink and Black, why not try one of the se combinations below? If you’re feeling very daring,  Pink also featured in my firstColour of the Month with another bold colour! If not, scroll down!

Pink + Blue

A stellar combination that you really can’t go wrong with. I know it may seem strange, but these two colours, regardless of the shade of blue, go fabulously together!

Khaki is a neutral so of course pink would work!
