Silver shoes and other things...

Loafers and Heels (kindof new but not really) - Out From Under at Urban Outfitters

Bodysuit and Socks - Urban Outfitters

Trousers - Topshop

Jumpers - Mango

'Oh look at the spectrum of colours', said no one, ever, about this post. When getting into the colder months edging towards cooler, darker, more subdued colours seems like the easy way out. In London, winter weather is not film-like with fluffy snow and happy faces, but instead a period filled with rain, sleet hail gloomy skies etc.., so for me, the colour palette normally reflects this time. Obviously dressing in darker or even more neutral colours is not for everyone and if you feel like going out dressed like Barbie then be my guest :)
The jumpers are mainly rather basic essentials for keeping warm during winter, while the other stuff does not really fall into the category of necessity, but general temptation and likability,

'Saatchi 'Saatchi (OOTD)

Top and Hoodie (worn around the waist) - American Apparel

Jeans and Shoes - Topshop

Jewellery - Asos

A couple of weeks ago we had the opportunity to visit the Saatchi Gallery, a modern art museum in Chelsea, London. The photos seen above are just a few examples of some of the fantastic pieces which we saw around the gallery, which boasted several rooms and floors of artwork, for example, the 'Oil Room' (last photo, above) where the floor of the room is covered in oil, making a really cool and trippy reflective effect (see Google for more details as this is not the best description).

If I was a rich girl...

AW14/15 Is sadly, tragically finally here, so that means new season wardrobe. As one can imagine, being more-or-less normal teenagers basically means you are living off the five to twenty pound notes handed to you from your parents, hence not being able to afford the items above. Most of these are dark colours (apologies to anyone neon/pastel fans out there) and are more of the edgier products from a few higher-end shops. 

Feel free to comment and tell us which item you like best, how it could be styled, and even leave a link to a good dupe or similar item that will not cost an arm or a leg :p
