Slouchy Jersey

Top- Topshop. Skirt- RiverIsland. Jumper- AllSaints. Shoes- Zomp . Bag- Zara. 
Hi guys,

I bought this jersey skirt from River Island just before I left for Australia. I love it so much that I bought it in  black too! Its definitely one of my favourite basics right now- I actually cant believe its taken me this long to blog it!

I cant find this skirt in grey on the River Island website but Ive linked you to a dark purple one instead, I'd definitely be buying if I was over in the UK just now! Its such a gorgeous shade, im really embracing plumbs and mustards at the moment.

This cardigan is actually from All Saints Mens but ive stolen it from my boyfriend due to my lack of clothing at the moment. I cannot believe i have lasted it here one month on one suitcase!! Crazy.

More Pictures and news to come this week so keep your eyes peeeeled!

Denim and Leather

Shoes- Jeffrey Campbell. Shorts- Wrangler. Jumper- Urban Outfitters. Jacket- AllSaints. Hat- Urban Outfitters
Hi Guys,

Hello from Melbourne! Its a little chillier over here so Im dressing slightly more for winter, nothing like what im used to back home but i've been wearing lots of hats or scarves with my outfits. There is still so much i want to see and do here but i've been instagramming some of the sights so far including some amazing city views and a llama casually strolling the streets of St Kilda. My username is nicola_claire if you want to follow me :)

I cant stop wearing these shorts from Wrangler, they are by far the best fitting pair of denim shorts i've owned so far. Im loving denim just now, i need to get these in black ASAP.

Hope you all had a nice weekend and hello to any new follwers.

Dip Dye Maxi

Top-TigerLily. Skirt- Topshop. Shoes- Zomp. Bag- Zara

Hey Everyone,

Here are some more photos from over in Perth, I wore this outfit to go to a brewery out in Fremantle called Little Creatures. It was such a cool day, the brewery was amazing and so was the beer! They have a pretty strong drinking culture over here, theres always a good atmosphere in the bars and pubs which makes resisting going out a lot harder!

Im just trying to look for a job in Melbourne at the moment, hopefully i'll find one soon so i can get shopping! A Topshop opened quite recently over here but it doesnt seem to have the same popularity here yet as it does in the UK but i'll definitely be checking it out!


Hope you've all had a nice weekend! I'll be able to blog more regularly again now ive been here a couple of weeks :)

Winter in Perth

Jacket- Topshop. Shorts- Wrangler. Top- Topshop. Hat- ASOS. Shoes- Mimi loves Jimi
Hey guys,

Im excited to post my first outfit from Australia! Its hard to believe its winter over here because the weather is better than what we were getting in Scotland before i left. These pictures were taken on the roof of my friends flat in Perth, it was 21 degrees that day but they think you are crazy for wearing shorts!

I love these creepers i got from Mimi Loves Jimi, im wearing them so much right now, I really want a pair in black too :)

I also really like this little top from Topshop is so handy for wearing with high waisted shorts or maxi skirts, a really good basic to have for the summer!

Ive tried my best to find links to all the items for you guys but couldnt find them all so have linked a few similar items instead :)

Hope youve all been having a nice week. Sorry I havent managed to post as much as usual, ive been busy exploring and settling in over here. .

Palm Beach Dress

Dress- Motel. Shoes- River Island. Necklace-River Island.  
Heys Guys,

I got this dress from Motel just before i went to Thailand, It was perfect for wearing over there at night with sandals! Having just moved over to Australia during winter, im going to have to wait for a bit until i can wear it again but im definitely going to get more wear out of it when summer comes- i love it!

I think i would probably buy this style of dress every print it comes in because it just fits so well and theyre all really reasonably priced. I have my eye on this one and this one too :)

Im hoping to get some snaps over the next few days here in Perth, some of the views are beautiful! My friend and I spent the day in Kings Park today, despite it being the middle of winter it was 21 degrees and blue skys. Although most of the locals complain about how cold it is, theyd get such a shock if they came to the UK!
