Mimi's Dream Outfit of the Month!

I'm really trying to reduce the amount of clothing in my wardrobe and only buy staples pieces when and if necessary. SO, I've decided to make monthly outfit collages! I thought it will be an easy/cool way of seeing what I would like to buy and help me envision how I would style certain.

I'm trying to dress more mature and with autumn beckoning (my fave season), it is time to tone down the colourful clothes and bring out those neutrals!

Here is my DREAM outfit of the month:

1. KHAKI DUSTER COAT // Duster coats have been the craze recently and will continue be throughout the autumn/winter season. It gives an androgynous look to any outfit and gives a casual outfit a touch of edge. I cannot wait to get my hands on one. As a 5ft8 female, I hope I find one long enough! The one I had my eye on for a little while is from Never Fully Dressed.
2. DANIEL WELLINGTON WATCH // I have been wanting one of these watches for as long as I can remember! They are so classic and timeless. Also extremely British! Unfortunately, I cannot afford one so I might just have to get a quirkier dupe from Urban Outfitters for the meantime. It will be mine soon though. Click here and check out the Daniel Wellington website and find your perfect DW watch!
3. DR MARTENS ADRIAN SHOES // The love I have for these shoes is indescribable! I recently got a job at Jack Wills and the style of clothing is extremely preppy and youthful. I've been trying to find a perfect pair of shoes that still has an element of my quirky style while in keeping with the preppy vibe. These were those. They are extremely expensive however as they retail at around £105. Definitely out of my price range at the moment but there are dupes! Zara are doing a similar one right now which retails at a comfortable £29.99! Might have to get those instead. Click here for the Dr Martens Adrian shoes!

If I had to style these three items, I would pair it with a 90s style crop top, a pair of high waisted black skinnies and a slouchy hobo bag!

Hope you all enjoyed this post! These are the three things are on my wishlist, what three things are on yours?

Get ready with Mimi

I love London. The architecture, the culture, the people… It never ceases to blow my mind. As someone that does not live in London, even though it is in my country, it feels like nice little getaway.

Recently, I paid a visit to one of my favourite places in London call Brick Lane. A quirky little area with amazing vintage items on sale all the time. I had coffee and carrot cake at one of my favourite vintage stores ever Blitz, had a photobooth sesh in the infamous store Rough Trade and took pictures in front of AMAZING graffiti.

I decided to film a little "Get Ready With Me" to give you a little snippet into my morning routine. It is not entirely detailed though and well filmed but that’s fine, right?

Hope you all enjoy!!

OOTD | When the circus came to town

So, finding something fashionable to blog about is becoming a little difficult these days so I've decided to post outfit of the days when creativity escapes me. At least a post is up, right?

This is an outfit I wore on a cheeky day out with my mother. My mum loves an effortless yet edgy look so I used that as inspiration for this outfit. I took simple pieces such as the halter neck style crop top and my New Balance trainers and paired them with some statement trousers from Zara. I chucked over a plain black kimono just to add to that effortless look and keep the simplicity.

Details:

Kimono - Select
Crop top - Miss Selfridge
Trousers - Zara
Trainers - New Balance
Bag - Monki
