WIWT - Neutrals With A Splash of Leopard Print

Hurrah I finally got my day (well afternoon!!) of chillaxing in yesterday so after some time on the sofa catching up on all my favourite shows I feel refreshed & raring to go for the week ahead.......well until about 11 o'clock this morning when I start craving something sweet!!!!

Keeping it simple today with distressed jeans (which my Grandad would have a fit at if he were alive & would simply ask if couldn't I afford to buy a new pair!!!), a classic white shirt (a must for any wardrobe), a tan blazer & ankle boots, which I'll finish off with a pop of Bet with my leopard print bag (whoops forgot to show this in the photo...duh!!).




Blazer - Zara
Shirt - Massimo Dutti
Necklace - Banana Republic
Jeans - Zara
Bracelet - J Crew
Boots - Zara
Bag - Zara

Classic Neutrals With A Splash Of Leopard Print


Blazer - Oasis £40
Jeans - ASOS £35
Bracelet - J Crew £125
Boots - Next £36


I personally don't think you can beat a bit of denim teamed with a white shirt & some tan/camel accessories I just find it a great classic & stylish combo.  What do you think?  Do you love this colour combo or do you prefer more of a splash of colour?  I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Have a great Monday.....I'm currently trying to justify another bit of leopard print...can't believe the above Boden bag is 40% off!!!! Plus I don't have a cross body one!!!! Perhaps a little Mother's Day gift to myself?!!!!

    1. Helen my Grandad through anything denim was only to be worn when carrying out labour intensive chores so he'd have a fit at my distressed jeans!!!

    1. Thanks Liz....I suppose it depends if you're a denim kind of person. I'm just loving the distressed denim for a more casual feel when teamed with some of my smarter jackets. Of course that's the great thing about fashion it's open to individual interpretation :-)

  8. I just love every single outfit you wear. I always end up stuck in jeans and scuffing about on my days off in my faithful Barbour jacket...laziness. As I mentioned I'm off on holiday next Saturday for 2 weeks, as soon as I'm back i'm copying many of your looks as your look really inspires me xx
