Fashion Fling Look no.6


Ray-Bans - c/o McArthurGlen
Leather  jacket - Topshop Boutique
Sequined top - Lashes of London
Jacquard trousers - Lashes of London
Boots - Topshop
Hat - Topshop





This is my final look for McArthurGlen's Fashion Fling challenge, styling my Ray-Bans for a night out. I would ideally wear this out for drinks in Hoxton while visiting London. 

Blue sequins and a jacquard pattern sounds like a bad case of clashing, but somehow they work with a leather jacket thrown over, and accessories that match the clothing colours. I was particularly pleased when I discovered how perfect my boots are with the trousers. It's like they were made for each other!
I'm so relieved my hat didn't get swept away into the harbour, although it did fly off my head after these pictures were taken!

I would just like to thank the McArthurGlen team for letting me be a part of this challenge as it's been so much fun. Also, thanks to Lianne MacKay for taking such fab photos. I hope you have all enjoyed checking out my entries and wish me luck for winning the style challenge!

Fashion Fling Look no.5

Sunglasses - Ray-Ban
Coat - ASOS
Handbag - Warehouse
Boots - Topshop

Today's Fashion Fling look is an outfit I would wear to work. Aviators became popular during the 1960s so I have been inspired by this era to create a sixties look. My coat makes me feel very ladylike and retro chic! As for my handbag, it  is big enough to fit in everything you might need for your 9 to 5! The rose tint and gold frames of my sunglasses work well with the colours of the coat's tweed panels, so I hooked them over the top of my coat. That's also the thing about Scottish weather - it changes so often that you may need to take your sunglasses on and off through-out the day!

This week's looks for McArthurGlen's Fashion Fling Challenge are all styled around these these aviator Ray-Bans. It's the first time I have worn this style of sunglasses (I'm more of a round-framed fan) but that made it more of a challenge which was fun. I think the aviators work well with this season's sportswear trend. Just add a bomber jacket (on my wish-list) and it's complete for a shopping trip outfit.

I love my baseball style t-shirt, which says my name on it! I couldn't believe my luck when I found it on Zara's website. They still have some in stock, as well as the name Danielle, so get buying if either of those names are your's too!

These Nike 'Blazers' are by far the comfiest shoes I have ever worn. I love the colour and the suede material. I think high-top trainers look best worn with socks peeking out of the top, although they also look good tucked into skinny jeans if the weather isn't letting you bare your legs!
