Backpacks and Fannypacks...

Hi everyone! 

So backpacks and fanny packs or bum bags, whatever you like to call them are BACK. 

It's time to go back to school. 

This trend can be great for both Autumn/Winter and Spring/Summer. For the current season I am loving the structured smart leather rucksacks that are out there, and also the black studded slouchy backpacks. 

I also absolutely cannot wait to make the most of metallic and pastel shade rucksacks when spring comes!

Here's a few of the ones I'm loving the look of...

Most of the bags above are pretty pricey, so if you want a cheap way to enjoy this trend definitely have a hunt around the charity and vintage shops for something that you won't see anyone else wearing.      
There are also plenty of little rucksacks around that are great for nights out as an alternative to an across body or clutch bag that most of us use at the moment. 

Don't be afraid to personalise your rucksack! You can buy studs on ebay that are easy to apply and will give a great punk look to a plain rucksack. 

In terms of bum bags, I don't think I will be sporting this trend until I go to GLASTONBURY for my 21st birthday this summer. 

However, I am a bit ahead of the game and have my eye on a few already.

Hope you all enjoyed this post and it will inspire you to embrace this trend.

Living for the weekend...

Hi everyone, 

I went on a girls night out in Chelsea this weekend with a few friends who are on fashion courses, and also on their placement year in London, like me. 

Georgie, with the blonde hair and black dress is currently working in the PR department of Alexander McQueen, and Shannon with the brunette hair and great blue jacket is working for ELLE Magazine. 

Heres a sneaky peek at our outfits for the evening...

Daisy is wearing- Smoke print high-low skirt- Goldie at TopShop, black court shoes- Miss Selfridge, 90s style black polo neck crop top- ASOS.
Georgie is wearing- Black dress- Miss Selfridge 

Cobalt nailvarninsh- Nails inc, Glitter topcoat- Urban Outfitters

Beyonce with Blue Ivy, wearing the nail polish

Daisy is wearing- chunky gold necklace- ASOS, blue ribbon in hair from a haberdashery.

Shannon wears- Leather trousers- Oasis, black ankle boots- TopShop, cobalt jacket- TopShop, navy camisole- TopShop, white chain necklace- TopShop

As Shannon works for ELLE she gets some great beauty freebies, like the blue nail varnish we are both wearing from Nails Inc (Beyonce's Blue Ivy polish). That polish along with my hair ribbon was a great way to brighten up my black and grey outfit. 

Cobalt blue is so on trend this season, and such a fun colour to use. Nailvarnish and other accessories are a great way to add seasonal colour trends to your wardrobe without spending a fortune, especially in the poor month of January. 

Get over those #JanuaryBlues by adding a splash of colour to your wardrobe. 

The rest of the weekend was pretty chilled out for me. I went to YO! Sushi (seafood is my favourite thing in the world)....

...and to see Les Mis which was AMAZING!!! A must see! I was unsure about the fact that it was all singing but you get used to it so quickly. It is such an incredible story and a huge tear jerker, so be prepared with plenty of tissues if you go to see it. 

Hope you guys all had a great weekend too. 

Love Daisy X
