Italian Paradise.... Outfit #3

My last look at an outfit, I forgot to take photos on my Canon but had some on my Instagram so you can always peek at that.

Another beautiful view, this time from my Aunties house, this always takes my breath away. My outfit is one I throw on at home with trainers and a leather jacket for a more relaxed look, here we were heading out for a meal so I put on my sparkly wedges to jazz the dress up.

Izabel Boutique

I am really into this seasons fashion, from the trench coat to the shirt dress it all looks wearable and right up my street. I was contacted by *Izabel an online boutique I had not heard of before to have a look at what they offer.

Izabel have a wide range of clothing and accessory items at reasonable prices, I was lucky to be able to chose an item of clothing to review and struggled between the gorgeous trench coats such as a Kim Kardashian inspired camel coloured coat, click here to view and a floaty top to wear post baby!

I chose this top in the end as need to feel comfortable.

This top is so unusual, I love the dip back hen and sheer panel which adds a different feel to just the usual dip hem tops on the highstreet, it floats beautifully when you walk and when I saw a couple of my friends they loved it! The top is only £22!! so when it arrived the quality surprised me for that price tag, it looks a lot more expensive and feels soft to the touch with chiffon panels and looks great teamed with leggings or skinny jeans with either stilettos or chelsea boots.

Please bare in mind I was only 4 weeks post second baby in this picture and had an emergency c section so standing was an issue!

The top is also available in khaki.

Izabel has a lot to offer and would recommend you guys have a peek to add some good quality staple pieces.

Have you purchased from Izabel?

OOTD: Sequin Sparkle

I have loved these sequin trousers but not worn them for years! How crazy is that?! So I dragged them out of my wardrobe, teamed with a simple H&M vest and denim shirt.

OOTD: Office Style

I have been struggling for work wear especially now with baby bump so wanted something that would work for not only work but general wear and of course something suitable for work as trousers seem to bug me at the moment!

OOTD: Topshop Loving

It was such a sunny day so had to style my bump to help me along as get pretty stuck when I look at my wardrobe every morning, here I am using a dress from Topshop which is not maternity wear so can be worn with or without baby bump. It is such a great dress to throw on, its floaty fabric means it keeps you cool and you can dress up or down.

I teamed the dress with some grey heels from Matalan.

OOTD: That Casual Feeling

The sun was out and I was feeling super happy to be spending the day with one of my best friends! We planned to go out for the day for food and lots of giggles, we did think of shopping too but that never happened as food just took over! We went to a gorgeous vegan restaurant, I am not vegan but adore healthy vegan food.

My friend agreed to take some photos, we laughed the whole way through so am sure you can see that in the photos! You may or may not know that I am pregnant, so currently I am 19 weeks and want a wardrobe to work for both being pregnant and after so have been trying to wear items that I have already which can work for me and my bump. If you didn't know I have a youtube and have shown a haul of items I have purchased that are not maternity wear which can work for me now, during and after pregnancy.

OOTD: Blazer Love

I have an obsession with blazers, there we go I admitted it, I am OBSESSED! I adore structure, a blazer that fits like a glove with unique detail. A blazer can transform a look, it can make a look go from your average outfit to a strut your stuff kinda outfit.

OOTD: Office Party Inspiration

Its party season time, where all your work friends gather to celebrate the christmas season so here is an outfit I put together for an office party. I love mixed textures, so denim and a string effect skirt teamed with some sparkle and nude high heels. I love this combination, you can also team it perfectly with leather pencil skirt.
