The Importance Of Being Idle.

Looks like I got this faux fur coat just in time before the weather changed because wearing my regular studded jacket in that wind wouldn't have been a good idea (even though I usually hate mixing prints). I have been keeping my eyes out for a pair of wedge ankle boots that are comfy enough for me to traipse up and down to Uni in but no luck so far (if anyone has seen any nice ones send me the link!). Also soon I will be putting a bunch of stuff on eBay so keep your eyes open for that post.

Fur Coat:- Miss Selfridge, Stripe Top:- Zara, Leggings:- Les Chiffoniers, Satchel:_ Topman, Shoes:- Toshop Boutique (Predators)

I love that alley you have to pose in! The shoes with the stockings are really cute. Somehow mine always just look bunched up in my shoes. Good luck with your quest to find booties/boots that are comfortable and chic. I'm having similar issues. Why can't I just have someone carry me everywhere?

Subversive said...

Those shoes! girl great outfit. You pull of those leggings well too! I wish we had a Miss Selfridge in the US. I felt like I waited forever for topshop to come along! Cross my fingers!!

I really love these images of you, Luxy. So moody and nostalgia-laced, yet thoroughly modern. And the mix of color v. black-and-white. Dang, well done.

Wow love your coat! On another note, what products do you use on your hair to keep it in such good condition? It looks fab :)

Luxe. said...

Empora Style Spy- Thanks! I use Pantene Ice Shine shapoo and conditioner, John Freida Miraculous Recovery strengthening Masque and once a week I coat my hair in olive oil leave it for a few hours shampoo it out and condition. Hope that helped!.x

Anonymous said...

Fantastic coat!

EmporaStyleSpy said...

I've heard about the olive oil thing - must give it a try! My own blonde highlights are ravaging my hair despite the deep conditioning treatments :( am at the point where I will try anything! Thanks for that.

The orange bag just makes it...can't decide if I love your hair more almost white or that dirtier shade you had a while ago..either way it's amazing though <3
