Candy Coated




Coat - Topshop / Dress - In Love With Fashion* / Shirt - New Look / Shoes - Topshop
Necklace - H&M / Bracelet - H&M / Watch - Michael Kors

As someone who often fails to deviate from buying monochrome clothing I've been making a real effort to buy colourful things lately. I love pastel colours so I couldn't resist buying a pastel coat. I originally wanted a pink coat but when I saw this mint green one on the Topshop website it was love. I used to have that sailor swing coat from Topshop & the size 10 still fit me when I was nine months pregnant! As this was a similar shape I went for the size 8 & it's a perfect fit. I had to hunt down the last size 8 in the Trafford Centre & ended up getting the one off the mannequin. It was worth it though! I cringed a lot at the £89 price tag but hey, pretty coats are always a good investment right? I still want a pink coat as well but I'm struggling to find the perfect one. I adore this bright pink coat from Topshop so if they bring out a petite version I'll be snapping it up right away. Let's just ignore the price!

Carrying on with the pastel theme I've been wearing this gorgeous baby pink shift dress a lot lately. I got it from In Love With Fashion. I'm really into LOVE's Spring collection. They have a whole host of beautiful pastel coloured dresses available. I went for this shift dress as it's such a classic & versatile piece. It's so easy to wear during the day and then you can glam it up a bit at night with a leather jacket & some heels. I wore this out to the cinema the other week when we went to see The Wolf Of Wall Street. I absolutely loved it, Leo was robbed! I just wore my pink Topshop T-bars which are one of my favourite pairs of shoes. I keep wearing shirts under dresses too. I think it's because I secretly wish every dress had a collar.

  1. I've been so tempted to buy that mint Topshop coat but the price keeps putting me off. I think I just need to bite the bullet and buy it before it sells out completely and I end up regretting not getting my hands on it. It's such a beautiful colour!
    It looks absolutely gorgeous on you! :) Thanks for the temptation. Hehe ;)

  11. Your whole outfit is great! Loving the coat! I wish the weather here in Southern California would let me wear a coat but alas it's around 20 degrees here (which is a bit chilly for us).
