Autumn stripes





Primark coat 
H&M necklace (old) 
Rings: vintage & The Great Frog 

I really like this outfit - it's very 'me'. The t-shirt is a little different as it's more fitted than I usually go for but I like the contrast of it against the more oversized fit of this Primark coat, which was only £10 in the sale! I'm also wearing my new Dr Martens boots that I showed in my haul on Sunday - they're really comfortable as they're the soft leather version.

JustFab June pick.




I haven't done a JustFab post in a while, but I couldn't wait to share this month's pick with you all! I saw these nude sandals on the website and thought they'd be the perfect addition to my sandal collection. I don't own any nude sandals, and thought these would be great with pretty much anything. 

They're really nice, and as usual look more expensive than they actually were! I love that the lining is a soft suede fabric as it means they're comfortable and won't hurt my feet. The design is very simple, but I think I'll get a lot of wear out of these as they're so neutral. The white sole is really nice as it gives the shoes a 'clean' look and I like that these aren't fully nude.

As for sizing, these run a little bit small. I got them in an 8 (I'm usually an 8 in JustFab and 7.5-8 in other places) but I probably should have got the 9. They're not too small but if you're a half size I'd definitely recommend going up in these! Other than that though, these are a lovely pair of comfy sandals that I know I'll get loads of wear out of!

Supercolor by Pharrell Williams Review.


Supercolor Ray Purple 

Pharell William's new adidas supercolor trainers have been selling out everywhere, and seeing as I have two pairs, I thought I'd do a little review on them. 

I bought both pairs from Schuh, which have excellent service, and I'd totally recommend them for any shoes! 

Firstly, I'll talk about the sizing. I've found that these come up very big. I'm usually a 7.5/ 8 (UK size) or a 41 (EU size). I tried on the 8 in these (as I usually get an 8 in shoes) and they were huge, so I had to get the 7 which are plenty big enough for me. I've read a few other reviews online too, and most people have sized down in these. 

The leather on these is very soft, and the insole is very cushioned and comfortable. I've been wearing mine with socks, and haven't had any blisters or sore feet, so for comfort, they're very good. 

My orange ones are amazing. They're super comfortable, stylish and add a pop of colour to every outfit. I've had loads of comments on them, and they attract a lot of attention every time I wear them. They're also Noopy's favourite colour, so they're a big hit with him too. I absolutely love these trainers, and even though I rarely wear colour, I've found so many things to wear with them in my wardrobe. 

The Ray purple I've had a bit of a problem with. My first pair came apart at the toe, and I had to return them and get a replacement (no problems with this at Schuh). My new ones are a lot better, but they do seem to have come away a little at the front. I'm still wearing them, but am keeping a close eye on them, as if it does come away like my others, I'll have to return them. It's a real shame, and I think it's just an issue with the purple ones, as my orange ones are absolutely fine. I just hope my new purple ones don't come apart because they're sold out now, and I do really love them! 

There's 50 colours in the range, although most have sold out now, but adidas do this superstar style in the classic white colour too, if that's more your thing. I'm really loving my supercolors, and I think they're a great statement piece but they probably aren't for everyone!

Have you got any of the supercolors?

Dr Marten Serena Boots review


















You might have seen me mention these boots in one of my videos or seen them in an outfit post, but I thought that now I've had them for a couple of months, I'd do a proper review. 
Dr Martens can be really uncomfortable at first, and I know many people have their ways of breaking them in, but I hate having sore feet, so that definitely didn't appeal to me! These Serena boots are lined with faux fur, and the leather on them is really soft. I've worn them quite a lot as I find they go with so many outfits, and they're honestly really comfortable. 
I haven't had sore feet once whilst wearing these, and have had no blisters, cuts or anything like that. These have been really comfy since day one, and once you've worn them a couple of times they mould to your feet and become even more comfortable! 
I'm really glad that I bought these as they've been absolutely amazing, and I know they'll be invaluable as the weather gets colder. So if you're looking for the perfect Dr Martens boots, but don't want the sore feet, I'd highly recommend these! (they also come in other colours too!) 

Hope you've had a lovely week, I've been feeling ill which is why I haven't posted much, but I went to an exciting blogger event last night, and there'll be a vlog up on monday on my youtube channel, so I hope that you enjoy that! Also, if you didn't know already, I'm doing vlogmas this year, which I'm really looking forward to, and hope you all are too! xx
