Blue Monday

Top // Jeans: New Look

Jacket: Lipsy

Necklace // Shoes: Primark

Lipstick: Barry M 151

Anyone else with the Monday blues? Not only the Monday blues but also the fact that it is raining and the sunshine has ran away back to spain! No more bare legs for the time being! Decided for a casual Monday as I have no plans to be anywhere except running to The Co-Operative for my mum to grab milk! Exciting times on my behalf - oh the joys of an unemployed actor.

Got my light shapers on today (I discussed the benefits to these jeans in a previous post. Catch it here if you missed it first time round). Added a plain green tee to give a little colour to the outfit and make sure I wasn't looking to dull and depressing today! Got to cheer myself up somehow! I like the distressed style of the top to give it some texture.

I have noticed a massive trend in crosses and skulls over the last few months - they are literally everywhere, bags, scarves, rings, the list is endless! I bought this necklace from Primark months ago and wasn't sure how to style it without becoming too Gothic but felt it added some grunge to this look. 

I love my leather jackets! I have two which could walk themselves. This one was a lucky find in Lipsy a little while ago, I love the ruched style at the top of the jacket, i haven't noticed any other leathers with this. It is a slim fit which gives it a girly feel. I'm not usually one to zip up my leathers, I like them open to show off my top and give it more of an edge. 

Some bright lippy with Barry M today, some orange to brighten my smile. I would opt for blue-based Oranges to give you a brighter smile, if you go for darker it could actually have the opposite effect and make your teeth look more yellow.

Hope you like todays look!
