Zara Lookbook: #SALEHAUL

2014 Post-Christmas sales have been good to me this year. Take a look at how I style different items, I haven't worn any tights but for the winter seasons I will be wearing the outfits with simple black tights. The BEST Zara to shop in for sale items is the Westfields in Stratford (the sale is actually organised, I was so surprised). 

Outfit no.1: 


The sale item from this outfit is the light Salmon loose jumper. It is quite thin so I'd recommend wearing a plain strappy top/tank top whatever you personally call it. This is a simple jumper that I wouldn't have purchased at it's full price of £24.99 but the orange sale tag caught my eye!

Jumper: Zara, £7.99
Shorts: Levi's, £20.00
Boots: Vagabond, £80.00

Outfit no.2:



Both the black top and infamous 'skort' are from the sale collection. This outfit is based on the current 'Monochrome' trend that I haven't rocked enough this winter. You can make this look super girly or grungy as I have with messy hair and imperfect makeup. For jewellery I've kept it minimal with just a watch. The statement piece here is the skort so I didn't want to distract any attention from it. The top, although in my pictures doesn't look anything special, however has a long silver zip on the back which adds some detail to the otherwise extremely plain long sleeved black top. 

Top: Zara, £5.99
Skort: Zara, £9.99
Boots: (Vagabond, again!)

Outfit no.3: 


I love this outfit! It's smart and casual at the same time, extremely preppy and always on trend. The trousers are a neutral brown dog tooth check which has been a popular pattern this winter and is certainly not a new design. I have had my eye on this shirt for a while however always resisted buying it full price since it was just under/or was £39.99 which I can't personally justify for a white shirt you can pick up somewhere else for a lower price. However, as I said, the amazing sale offered it to me at an extremely good price. It drapes around you so it is quite loose which is perfect if I've had a lot to eat (bloated.com/thisshirtdoesthetrick)!

Shirt: Zara, £17.99
Trousers: Zara, £15.99
Shoes: Topshop (SALE), £30
Hat: Rokit, £12

That is all from my recent shopping trip in Zara and I definitely recommend visiting your nearest Zara before the sale runs out (which apparently is in under 2 weeks, hurry!)

Let me know if you guys enjoy these types of blog posts or not, I personally enjoyed it and I have to give a shoutout to my younger brother Roni who took these photos with crap room lighting and iPhone 4s camera (kudos to you my friend!)

That's all for now though,

Love, Lo!

School girl look!

Shirt: H&M (£7.99)
Skort: Zara (£29.99)

It is as simple as that... literally. For shoes I wore Office 'Dallas Boot' (Brown) which were a free pair of boots since I work for the company. The Zara 'skort' has been incredibly popular, I love the tartan detail on my pair (also super in trend). The skort is really flattering to my legs, particularly since I don't have long legs, the shortness of the skort elongates it and the shorts fit perfectly at the back (revealing my peachy ass, lol just kidding). The shirt I am wearing here can be worn with absolutely anything, recently I've been really into basics and spending my money wisely when it comes to clothes as I want to get a lot of wear out of each item I purchase. Don't get me wrong though, I love investing in a one off piece, only once in a while though. 

Blazer: Bershka
T-shirt: H&M
Jeans: Topshop
Bag: Zara
Boots: Office
Sunglasses: Zara

Love the simplicity of this outfit. I was on my way to dinner and paired really plain black and white colours with a fun snakeskin blazer. When going for such a bold outer layer on your outfit, try and keep the rest fairly neutral unless of course you can pull of clashing colours/prints. To enhance the look I've kept my make up extremely bare however I've added a statement with the black winged liner.
