Outfit Post: Are we fashion victims?

Hey Fashionandstylepolice Lovers! Who are fashion victims I hear you ask? A fashion victim is anyone who is at the mercy of fashion trends and who has no style boundaries. You are a fashion victim, if you buy everything you see on sale just because it is half price, regardless of whatever it would suit your body shape or complement your existing wardrobe. Many years ago, I thought  fashion victims were those men and women, working extremely long hours in factories, for very little wages. Now I know Fashion victims are everywhere and more and more people are victims of fashion and style.

I was once a victim of fashion, drowning in the fashion fads and struggling to keep up with every fashion trend. I am thankful that is no longer my story. Fashion trends are simply that. I shop for what suits my personal style and what I need, not what the fashion gurus tell me I need. The way I see it, fashion trends are for informative purposes only. They sometimes inspire me but they do not control me and it feels great to be able to shop for what I really want.

I got this lovely sparkly sweater some days ago. It is a new addition to my wardrobe and I am loving it. I love how easy it is to style it up or down. The blue jeans is also a new wardrobe addition to my jeans collection. I love the colour and it suits like a glove! A woman can never have too many pairs of jeans. It is one piece I am forever wearing, season after season.  Are you jeans lover?

Outfit Post – Wearing Hoodlum Lamorna Faux Fur Hood

I wrote about this Hoodlum Lamorna Faux Fur Hood last week and how it would make a great gift this Christmas. Well, I finally got the opportunity to wear mine the other day and I am so glad I did. The hood is so pretty. It is great for the very cold winter days and nights ahead. The design is amazing and it is great quality. This Lamorna Faux Fur Hood by Hoodlum Clothing is from the limited Winter Lux Collection. It is designed to combat colder weather. The lovely handmade cosy hood is lined with luxury faux fur that locks in warmth, which makes it the perfect addition to my winter wardrobe.

Here is a brief description of the luxury faux fur hood from Hoodlum Clothing Brand

Superior Grey Husky Faux Fur with Natural Herringbone Harris Tweed

This herringbone has a subtle combination of nature tones that evoke the wilds of the Cornish countryside. The Grey Husky faux fur perfectly colour matches the earth colours of the tweed with its multi-tonal greys and black flecks. This is would look great on a man as well as a women.

A handcrafted hardwood button fastens the hood.

Will sit as a shawl when worn down.

Did you know?

The natural Herringbone Harris Tweed on this hood is a limited edition. Made by an independent weaver on the Isle of Harris they only create small runs of each design.

Outfit Post – Fashion in Portugal

Happy Thursday Fashionistas! I took these outfit photos while holidaying in Portugal some weeks ago. It is now painfully cold in Cheshire, and I am seriously missing the warm weather we had in Portugal. I know the weather will be dark, cold and gloomy for the next few months. I know this because it happens every year but I am not ready for the extreme cold weather yet. Maybe because this is the first time I am having to do school run in the mornings. When the kids were in pre-school, they had the afternoon sessions which was great for us all as we didn’t have to leave the house in the mornings to go to school. But all that has changed now and I am not coping well 😊

So since I am finding this British weather very depressing, I am keeping myself having by staying warm and keeping the memories of our last holiday alive. In this outfit post, I am wearing a fringe dress, which is a new wardrobe addition. I got it specifically for our Portugal trip and I am glad I did. It was dead comfy and easy to style. Plus the fringe design gave the look an extra wow factor.

I needed a few casual summers pieces for the trip, so I did a cheeky online shopping days before we left and I was glad I got the pieces I got on sale. They were all less than half price!

I love this fringe dress a lot, and I am already looking forward to wearing it again once the weather changes.

How is the weather where you are? Are you missing the warm weather already? What do you think of this fringe dress?
