January Fashion Favourites | Alivia

ello puddins..HAPPY FEBRUARY (already!!!!!),

So today I am going to be doing a more fashion based post on my 'January Fashion Favourites'. I can't be the only one of us that genuinely thinks they have an addiction to spending money (can I?!). Anyway, here's a few things that I've just been LOVING for everyday/casual and even smart wear!!

Also, I will just apologise for the dominantly poor image quality. It's very unlike me but all the photos were pre-taken :(

 

Topshop Ultimate Faux Leather Biker Jacket

Now for me, this jacket is on my list of holy grails. I wear it most days for sixth form because it goes with literally ANYTHING. If I want a more casual outfit day, this jacket immediately dresses it up (and is still sooo comfy). It's warm, comfy and just beautiful.

 

 

 

ITS CURRENTLY ON SALE SO HERE'S THE LINK IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A LOOK:

Topshop Cocoon Sweat
The comfiest item I own (apart from my pyjamas hehe). I absolutely ADORE this sweat SO SO much. I pair it with leggings and some converse on cosy days, and ripped jeans if I want to dress it up a little bit. With wavy, beachy hair this sweat looks stunning! It's available in many colours as well (all of which I  want).

Topshop Blue and White Speckle Shirt
Shock horror, another Topshop product (addicted okay, everything is just too nice to leave). This shirt has been one of my most worn items of January, the chiffon material is just so so soft on the skin which makes it comfortable for every occasion. You can't really see from the photos but there's actually a striped detail on the shirt which I just l o v e because it adds texture to the piece. The colour really matches my hair and skin tone and has been the cause of many compliments (thank you Topshop!!!).

Topshop Luxe Faux Fur Boxy Gilet
Classy, smart and very cute, this gilet is one of my more different (yet head over heels in love with) items from January. Silk lined and fur (what more could a girl ask for?!), unbelievably comfy and very warm for these cold, snowy months. This gilet pairs beautifully with the shirt above (see picture) and a pair of jeans, perfect for meals and nights out. I've been so impressed by Topshop recently (in case you couldn't tell), and would highly recommend anyone to visit it now!!

Black Converse All Star
Standard little shoe that is again, on my list of holy grails. Affordable, and go with absolutely everything, I have been LIVING in these recently!! They're so simple, yet I think they look so  effective and can really give an outfit some character. Great substitute for boots when we all chose comfort (me most of the time) and yeah, just bloody love them.

 

(yes, I know my feet are very small)

I didn't expect this to be a Topshop Haul but it kind of turned into one (oops) so sorry for that! Let me know what your January Fashion Favourites were in the comments below!! Thanks so much for reading!!

Lots of love always,

Sixth Form Outfit Of The Day | Alivia



 

hello everyone,
thank you all for reading my last post on the 'Younique 3D Fibre Mascara Review' I hope you all loved it as much as I loved writing it!! Wishing you all a happy week and I hope you're all powering through work and school and counting down the days until the next holidays (like me oops)...

So today I am going to be doing a post on my 'Sixth Form Outfit Of The Day' and just a general chat about fashion (because in all seriousness, who doesn't want to chat about clothes?!). So I woke up this morning, tired, and with a full day of lessons ahead of me with absolutely no idea what to wear (despite owning a ridiculous amount of clothes... typical girl, we're all guilty of this). So, recently, i seem to have averted away from my old fashion traits and am beginning to be more thoughtful about my choices when shopping and picking out outfit of the days. I am very much into shirts, jackets, boots, casual dresses, casual skirts and tights recently (all Zoella inspired of course). I feel like smart-casual is much more visually appealing and makes me feel more confident. My friend once said to me "if i look good, i work better" and i completely agree! If you feel more confident in your outfit then you wont be as self-conscious throughout the day!

Have any of you grown into a new fashion sense? Or believe that looking good helps you work better? Let me know in the comments!!

Anyway... after a very long debate and almost making myself late for sixth form, this was my chosen outfit;

 

SHIRT: Topshop

LEGGINGS: Topshop

JACKET: Topshop

SHOES: Converse (Office)

'WEEKEND' BAG: Topshop

 

 

I hope you all liked my chosen outfit, it was comfy yet i felt it still looked quite smart. I think at work or school or wherever you may be, it's so so important to make sure that you're comfy and also warm (i did actually wear tights under my leggings for extra warmth, despite my leggings already being super thick... Manchester weather everybody haha!). There's absolutely nothing worse than having an uncomfortable pair of jeans, or an itchy label when you're trying to work, and with this outfit i had no problems!!!

 

 

And that's all for today's post, leave a comment down below on the kind of clothes you like to wear for college/sixth form/work and so on!!! And don't forget to follow my blog because you're all my faves..

 

lots of love always,
