Blouse: Monki at ASOS
Skirt: New Look
Shoes: Steve Madden via Sarenza
Monki at ASOS is my current obsession. Ever since the brand first landed there I’ve stalked the new arrivals, so far limiting my purchases to three (a dress, a jumper and this blouse) although I have my beady eye on these mittens, this dress and these oh so cheery tights.
I originally wanted to pair the blouse with a leather look pencil skirt I’d purchased from New Look but re-trying it on a week later made me realise the skirt needed to be returned. I do not have the correct body proportions for pencil skirts and I MUST remember that! Instead I grabbed my trusty black skater skirt from my wardrobe, stuck on these snazzy studded flats and rushed out of the door to work- after getting outfit photos, of course! Kudos to Mae for her timing in seeking me out that morning.
Outfit posts really are few and far between at the moment. The combination of Autumn lighting issues, more time spent in uniform for work and generally just having very little time/motivation to put together outfits has seen the blog veer more towards reviews and wish lists. I do want to get back in to outfit posting though, perhaps I need to rope the boy in to grabbing photos at the weekend.
Speaking of weekends, we’re nearly there again. I think we’re planning on a chilled one this time having spent last weekend with his family up North(ish). It was my first time meeting the full set of siblings as well as properly getting to know his parents and I’m pleased to report they are all wonderfully delightful.
I also survived a night out (such as it is) in Melton Mowbray and my first and probably not last Leicester City match.
Are there any brands you’re hooked on at the moment? I’m not sure whether to ask you to share or not. I don’t need encouragement!

LOVE those shoes!
Ahh so lovely that you got on well with all your boyfriend’s family! I hope you enjoyed the Leicester match haha 🙂 I come from Leicestershire, but have never been to a Leicester game! My first ever football game was Liverpool due to my boyfriend’s supporting of them, we’ve been quite a few times since. I have to admit I was more entertained than I thought I’d be! I never realised that ASOS had started stocking Monki, off to have a browse and probably ‘save for later’ a load of items 🙂 really love your cat blouse, and oh! those mittens!! I bought the Oysho cat mittens and hat last year and still love them xx
That shirt is gorgeous just like Mae!
Love it. I’m a cat lady through and through. That shirt is great and your kitty is cute!
Monki is my favourite, have you seen their jumpers?!
