Sunday, let's have a walk in style

What would you do on a lovely Sunday afternoon? Me and my hubby decided to have a walk in the park. Normally I would wear somthing casual and comfy, but today somehow I wanted to have a walk in style. So, I put my heels on as well as my favourite biker jacket, luckly the heels did't kill me as they are quite chunky and I managed to have few photos for my blog.If you are interested any item, please comment down below so I can do a detailed review for you. Thanks!

Back to school oufit

Anyone going back to school? Well here is my version of back to school outfit. I hope you enjoy!

 Coat: River Island; T-shirt:Hollister (sorry that you can't see it from the pic, but it is just a basic gray t-shirt that you can get from anywhere); Jeans: Hollister high rise supper skinny jeans, more information and review click here; Trainer: Top Shop; Racksack: Samsonite (borrowed from my hubby)

I pick the coat up from the last chance section yesterday from my local River Island store, sadly it is not available online, but if you are interested, try  your local store, I don't know the name as there is no tag on it when I bought it, but here is the item code: 5052300715622, the item cost £90, but RI doing a student offer 20% off of all full priced items, so it cost me £72. The offer will end tomorrow so make sure you go and take advantage of that lol. I do think it is abit pricy considering the big Christmas Sale just around the corner, and a similar coat may ended up around £40 or even cheaper, but it is the last one, so...I had to take it home with me. Today I worn this coat to a dinner and bar with friends, and I have to say, I am really impressed how warm and comfy it is. I am sorry but please don't hate me for rambling! I just love my new coat!




 I hope you enjoyed reading my blog, and I hope you enjoy your weekend since it is almost Friday lol!

Saturday Brunch Ootd

Today I was having brunch with my hubby and thought maybe I could do a little brunch ootd on the way to our favourite cafe. It is very nice cafe shop but its not like some place that people would go with fancy outfit, it is very relax and friendly place, so I normally wear somthing that I feel comfortble and casual whenever  I go there. Plus I really wanted to wear my h&m jacket more, because I had it for more than 2 years, but I have only worn it like twice.  Anyway, here is what I was wearing today, and all the information is down below if you are interested.
 


Jacket: H&M
Vest top: River Island (current, on offer at 2 for £10) link: click here
Neckless: Miss Selfridge (current on sale, £2.50. only available in store.)
Bag: Nine West
Flat shoes: Tory Burch, similar click here
Ipad cover: TKMaxx
Skinny Jeans: Hollister, high rise, supper skinny, my size: 5R, W27 (I am size 10R for other brands).  (current, full price: £54, but they are doing offer at the moment, so I got it for 20% off which is around £43), link: click here

My thoughts on these jeans: Hollister jeans are not cheap compare to other high street jeans, but they are supper soft and comfy, it is thick, which is nice for cold weather,  it is a bit long for me but it flatters my figure more when I'm wearing high heels. Material wise, 75% cotton, 13% viscose, 11% polester, and 1% elastane (I don't know much about material, I put it here just in case if anyone interested). Overall, I do recommend them, I do think they are good value for money as I will wear them all year around.  The only thing bothers me is the shop is too dark, I tried 3 pairs of jeans (same style, different washes), but I could not tell much difference of the colour. So I asked my hubby to pick one for me. Good luck for finding a perfect fit jeans wheather you want to shop from hollister or anywhere else!


I always enjoyed having brunch in this cafe until....my hubby said, you know why I don't oder full english breakfast from here anymore? I looked at the plate, and suddently relised there is no big beans in the plate! no big beans for full english breakfast? I was sad, and I blame my hubby for that, if he never mentioned, I may never found out. Anyway, is it just me? what do you think of a full english breakfast without big beans (if you love big beans like me)?

10 Classic Black Statement Bags That Are Worth To Invest (Zara Current Season Vs. High End Brands)

 
Let's have a bag talk shall we? Zara, oh Zara! Hands down one of my favorite high street brand when it comes to handbags. I know one celebrity in particular looked super cute in one of the Zara leather shopper from past season, Olivia Palermo, check out her amazing outfit pictures from here.
 
Just the other day, I checked out Zara's new born arm candys. and found that few of them are cousins to some of the famous designer bags, (yes, counsins, not twins, not brothers or sisters, but cousins) as they don't really look alike, but I feel they are in some extend remind me other designer classic pieces, sort of in the same family tree which in a good way. So I decided to make some family charts and share with you my picks for classic black statement bags from Zara to high end brands. I hope you injoy!
 
1. Zara leather bag with metal tab (Zara, please give her a nice name!) price: 109 GBP
2. Sain Laurent Cabas Chyc medium leather shopper
3. Chanel Cerf/Executive Tote
1. Zara leather bowling bag  price:79.99 GBP
2. Alexander Wang coco duffel bag
3. Louis Vuitton sofia coppola1. Zara soft bowling bag (non-leather) price: 59.99 GBP
2. Alexander Wang The Emile Texture-Leather Tote
1. Zara city bag with shoulder strap price: 69.99 GBP
2. Tod's D-bag

I'm sorry that I didn't put any price on the designer ones as they may change from time to time.
My favourite from all these ten are Chanel Cerf/Executive Tote and the Zara leather bag with metal tab (both are from the first image). Which one is your favourite?
