Three Ways To Wear Long Dungarees

I recently bought these Long Black Dungarees by Liquor & Poker from Asos (identical ones from Boohoo here). I'd been wanting some for a while, I looked at the blue denim ones, but decided they weren't for me so eventually took the plunge and went for black. They only had a size 10 left so I bought them and hoped for the best as I can sometimes be a 12 on the bottom. When they arrived I liked them and they fit but I wasn't 100% sure on them (I thought I maybe looked a bit too much like a painter and decorator...), but now I really love them and I've come to realise how amazingly versatile they are!

I decided to make this post as I think a lot of people might be wary of buying dungarees for fear they won't suit them, or they won't get enough wear out of them, as that's exactly what I thought. Hopefully this might help you decide whether to buy some or not, or if you already own some, give you some quick outfit ideas. 

Outfit 1: Everyday Casual

Miss Selfridge Crop Top (similar) // Miss Selfridge Necklace // Forever 21 Bag (similar)// Steve Madden Shoes

I like the look of long sleeved crop tops with dungarees as it breaks up the outfit a bit by giving a flash of flesh on the waist. These Steve Madden slip on's are perfect for the cold damp weather, the keep my feet dry and warm throughout the autumn/winter seasons. 

Outfit 2: Winter Layering

H&M Scarf (similar) // New Look Sleeveless Jumper // River Island Boots (similar) // Apple Watch

I love layering and dungarees are perfect for this! Throw a jumper on underneath them with an oversized scarf over the top and you're good to go. Pair with your favourite boots and you'll be ready to tackle the cooler autumn days. If you want to wear a sleeveless jumper, like I have here, but are cautious about your arms getting cold. Make sure you wear an oversized scarf because they can often double up as a cape or shawl so you'll never get caught out. 

Outfit 3: Going Out Out

Miss Selfridge Embellished Top // TK Maxx Clutch (similar) // New Look Heels (similar)

You might not immediately think of dressing up dungarees, but they look perfect with heels and an embellished top like this one I got in the sale at Miss Selfridge recently. I like the all-black look for a night out, I feel it makes the dungarees look more night-time appropriate and classy. However, if you're more into colour, you could easily inject some in there with a pair of bright heels and/or a colourful clutch.

Asos A/W 2015 Wishlist

I find this time of year a really difficult time to buy clothes. It's in-between Summer and Autumn so shops just seem to have a bit of everything in, and none of it is really all that great if I'm honest! However, I was having a bit of a look through Asos and came across a few pieces I liked, so here they are. 

Daisy Street Maxi Shirt // ASOS 2 Pack Bardot Tops // 

ASOS Raw Edge PU Wrap Skirt // New Look Wide Fit Block Heeled Boots

I think bardot tops are so versatile, you can dress them up or down, and this 2 pack is great because you get a long sleeved and a short sleeved one for just £20! Another one of my favourites from this list are these New Look boots. The only problem is, they only come in Wide Fit and I have slim feet so I know these just won't fit me, but I decided to include them anyway because I love the look of them. 

All the pieces I picked can be worn most of the year round (especially here in England when you sometimes need to bring the boots out when you should actually need sandals...), and this is what I liked about them. The weather's been unpredictable at the moment so all these items can be layered up or worn on their own, which is perfect for this time of year.

OOTD: Last of the Summer Outfits?

This was my outfit earlier on in the week and it's possible it'll be the last of my summer outfits because the weather in the days after I wore this have been very miserable and a lot colder. I know it's not super summer, but the light colours, thin materials and lack of jacket mean it definitely isn't something I'd be wearing in the colder weather. 

I wore this outfit to go out for lunch and then do a bit of shopping. These jeans are super comfy, the material is really light and stretchy so they fit amazingly. Also, I love these shoes, I think they just add a little something to an outfit. They have a padded insole so they don't make your feet hurt when walking around all the shops!

A lot of these clothes are out of season now so I've had to link clothes that are similar to the ones shown in these images.

Outfit details:

Top - Peacocks (similar)

Jeans - Bershka (similar)

Shoes - Asos

Bag - Forever 21 (similar)

Watch - Michael Kors

Necklace - Miss Selfridge (No longer available in Silver) 

Lipstick - Rimmel London Lasting Finish by Kate (No. 08)

A Very Monochrome Summer Wish List

In two weeks time I'll be jetting off to sunny Santorini with my Boyfriend, but there are still a few last minute things I've been lusting after. 

1. Oakley Bikini from Asos (Top and Bottoms sold separately) - I've been on the hunt for a black bikini and this one is just what I've been looking for. It's simple but not too simple. I love the wet look material and how the small metal detailing makes it a bit more interesting. 
2. Leather Backpack from Accessorize - I really want a backpack to take on holiday with me as they're so easy to wear and having one with you means you don't have to carry anything in your hands. This leather one from Accessorize with silver hard wear is just the right size and is perfect for me. Also, it currently has £30 off.
3. '#Girlboss' Book by Sophia Amoruso - I've heard a lot about this book and all the reviews I've read seem to give it high praise so it's definitely on my list of books to purchase. I think I'll be taking my iPad with me on holiday so I'll be downloading it on that to read around the pool.
4. Striped Monochrome Pumps from TU at Sainsbury's - I'm loving the look of monochrome stripes at the moment so when I saw these textured pumps from Sainsbury's I really wanted them. Unfortunately, I went into my local store a few weeks ago but they don't stock them there. I'm hoping if I pop in again they'll have got them in so fingers crossed!
5. 'Cameo Rose' Gypsy Crop Top from New Look - I was out shopping a few days ago and spotted this cute crop top in New Look, I almost tried it on but in the end decided to leave it. However, since then, I've realised I made a mistake and thought of so many different ways to wear it. I think I'll have to take a trip to New Look and see if they still have it in. It also comes in Black so I'm not sure what colour I'll get but, for only £9.99, I could always get both!

I hope you enjoyed having a look at a few things I've been lusting after for my holiday. Are you going on holiday soon? Is there anything you've been wishing for? If so, leave me a comment below, I'd love to know :)
