Another day, another catch up. I swear I completely forget about some outfits that I’ve posted on Instagram sometimes and it’s only a few days (ahem, or weeks) later that I remember to update you guys! So sorry about the delay! This post was further delayed by the fact that I had the post all ready to go, and then my computer had a freakout and deleted the whole thing. Lovely. So it’s taken me a week to get back to this because every time I looked at it, I got annoyed.

Just after Christmas, I headed out with a few of the girls. As tempting as it is to stay in your onesie for a week, watch Home Alone for the hundredth time and eat even more chocolate, sometimes I get to the point where you have to get up and do something else! I wore all black because a week of stuffing your face requires lots of the most flattering colour. You can’t tell that the skirt is leather and that the top is textured, so you’ll just have to take my word for it!

Post Christmas is the time for oversized sweaters. I can’t describe how important oversized sweaters are to me. The ability to be comfortable and hide the Christmas over indulgence is critical. It is not the time for tight clothing at all! I picked up this sweater in Topshop on sale, but there’s loads of other options out there right now while we all try to get ourselves back into shape!

About a year ago I bought these great leather trousers in Zara. They we’re a deep brown colour and I still love them to this day. I was thinking a few days ago that I really wanted them in black. I walked into Zara that same day and not only did they have them in black, but also mink and khaki! I was so happy, the fact that they’re great value doesn’t hurt either. I picked up a few other basics – this great denim shirt, jeans and a few simple tops. It’s a great way to refresh your wardrobe, by picking up some great basics.

Yay! We’re all caught up again, finally. Here’s hoping that my Mac doesn’t freak out again and there’s no more lost posts. So annoying when that happens!

I hope you’re all having a lovely week.
