Fros and Florals

These floral ASOS trousers have been everywhere at the moment. I first saw them on Jazmine (who by the way looked absolutely stunning) when she styled them up as part of her ASOS Style competition entry. I purchased them, they arrived, I tried them on and absolutely HATED them. They seemed way too short on my legs and no matter what I paired them with they didn't look right. The other day I was making some purchases on ASOS for my holiday to New York and noticed the trousers had gone down to £20 in the sale. Something was telling me to give them another go, so they made their way into my basket a second time. I tried them on this morning and I don't know whether it was because I was feeling pretty crappy when I tried them first time around but I fell in love with them. I'm still not 100% sure on the length, I'd really like them to be a bit longer but the fit is incredible. They are quite low rise, but with a baggy t-shirt, look absolutely fine. I'm really pleased with them and am so glad I FINALLY own a pair of floral trousers.

My twitter followers will know I went to the Barnes Mary's Living and Giving shop launch last week with Mary Portas. She's an incredible woman and I even managed to her a brief chat with her about my job and high street fashion. Mary also mentioned how much she loved my Accessorize statement necklace I was wearing at the time (Bravo Accessorize!). My Mum also attended as she manages one of the shops on Barnes High Street and she was having a right old chin wag with Mary. Whilst sipping on champers I spotted this beautiful Issey Miyake blazer hanging on the wall and only £25! I went into the changing room whilst the party was still going on to give it a try - I loved the length of it and was in desperate need of a smart black blazer. It really is my new baby and was a perfect match for the floral trousers.

Oh - and here's me with my fro out! Haha. My hair is one of my greatest annoyances and I rarely have it out but I need to start embracing this curly mop a bit more now as I do so much damage to my hair when I put it in a top knot ALL the time.
