When in doubt...

Now everyone gets a bit of 'block' occasionally; I'm currently suffering from writer's block in the middle of my essay (due in on thursday!). So I sent a message round to the contributors of this blog for their top tips when suffering from fashion block! Hopefully these will give you some ideas for the next time you are struggling to decide what to wear!

When in doubt, stick to neutrals and layer, layer, layer!

When in doubt, throw a leather jacket over everything and anything. I feel it gives my outfit the added grungy edge I'm looking for and I would like to think it's my signature style.

When in doubt, keep it simple. If CĂ©line has shown us anything, it's that fashion doesn't need to be over the top, sometimes understated can be just as powerful.

When in doubt, never look too immaculate. Make like Kate Moss and pair underdone hair and make-up with a done up dress, or vice versa.

When in doubt, stick on the highest heels possible to add confidence to every outfit!

When in doubt, wear something else! Fashion and confidence go hand in hand, if you're not comfortable wearing something it will show.

When in doubt, wear something fun! Don't take your outfits too seriously.

When in doubt, have a 'when in doubt' section in your wardrobe.


Or if all else fails, head on over to lookbook for a bit of inspiration!





Oh and look what shoes I just found while scrolling through lookbook...


(See previous post)

Now wearing: Paperbag, tapered black trousers, striped t-shirt and a black scarf wrapped around my neck 3 times...brrrr.

Now listening to: Belle and Sebastian - Piazza, New York Catcher and the rest of the Juno soundtrack. For the second time in 24 hours.

Now coveting: This sweatshirt. Not quite sure why...
