OOTD: Interview Attire

Hey Dolls!!

So today I was oozing with excitement as I was lucky enough to land myself an interview for my dream job. I know you guys are probably curious to know who it's with but until I get the answer i'm looking I won't be able to disclose that info yet. (Update soon I promise)

Interview Outfit

          

I had prepared the night before the outfit I wanted to wear, the look I was going for was smart and chic and think I accomplished it.

I absolutely adore my new coat and had been eyeing it up for a while, it has a beautiful tweed body and soft supple leather sleeves. Originally it was £149.99 but I was lucky enough to purchase it in the Zara sale for £99 so this was definitely a winter bargain.

Smart &  Chic

Zara Shirt

My beautiful semi-sheer blouse is from Zara's TRF new collection and was a steal at £19.99. This is great whether you match with jeans for a more casual outfit or dress it up like I have done for a more formal event.

The skirt was one of my recent purchases and I bought it at H&M, I was shocked as it was only £12.99 but the quality feels amazing. It's quite thick for a pencil skirt with a little stretch making it so comfortable to wear, it has this beautiful zip detailing on each side which can then be hidden away when your shirt is tucked in.

H&M

Even though I have loads of shoes I was finding it difficult to find the right pair to compliment my outfit choice, in the end I went with my favourite ankle boots from Carvela which I purchased last year.

Coat: Zara

Blouse: Zara

Skirt: H&M

Magic Support Tights: Marks & Spencer

Shoes: Carvela

I kept my make-up very natural with a soft tinted moisturiser and a bit of bronzer to give my dull face some colour. I finished off the look with my new YSL nude lipstick which seems to be my new staple in my makeup bag.

Well beauties fingers crossed that I left a good impression today and I receive some good news soon.

Much Love,

 The electric blue was dead on trend for the summer, for me this colour is great when enhancing your glowing tan or creating a statement look.

Here I chose to wear these shoes as a statement piece to go with my work attire; it is the first thing you notice and all the attention is drawn to towards them.

Working girl!

Hey beauties!!

TGI Friday, so I thought I would throw on my pretty new shoes that I purchased from Zara, thought I would add some prettiness to my work attire. 

I've gone a bit crazy these last two months and have been buying shoes like there's no tomorrow. 

These happen to be one of many that I have bought, the colours attracted me to them as blue and turquoise happen to be my favourite colours. These shoes are perfect for these beautiful summer days we seem to be having in London. I've had loads of use for them lately, wearing them with skinny ankle jeans to wearing them at work.

I decided to add this necklace to the outfit which I thought went well with the colour scheme I was going for. You cant go wrong with a statement necklace when trying to jazz up a plain outfit.

Top - H & M

My two favourite things at the moment

This month I absolutely love my classic handbag from Louis Vuitton the “Speedy 30” and my beautiful heeled sandals from Zara.  

Louis Vuitton "Speedy 30" & Zara sandals

Here you have a classic not to mention iconic piece that was made famous by  Audrey Hepburn. For me it’s the perfect bag for everything, you can fit everything you could possibly want inside, I think I have managed to fit a pair of heels, a small cardigan, makeup bag and all the unnecessary things that I insist on carrying and it still manages to look cute on my arm. This truly is a Mary Poppins bag for me because the things I can pull out of this bag are at times endless.You will love that it can fold completely flat, which is great when storing it away or when you are travelling.

A truly classic must have that continues to add style and class to your outfits.

I am obsessed with these shoes since the day I first laid my eyes on them, these are great for any occasion. You can wear them with absolutely anything; here I’m wearing them with leggings for a casual but smart look for the office. They also look fabulous with some stylish Harem pants.

The lace up look is a great look this season, these are a great find.
