Sometimes you buy an item and know exactly how you're going to style it, even before said item has made its sassy entrance into your wardrobe, step forward this oversized metallic knit from Topshop. As soon as Lucy pulled this out I knew it'd be a winner paired with skinny blue jeans and a crisp white button down to put a more formal, pulled together twist on such a casual pullover. Throw on my go to suede biker jacket and can't-stop-wearing-them studded ankle boots and I'm ready for anything from family day trips to the farm to running errands in town and even Sunday lunch at my parents because sometimes I love an outfit that much that I wear it two days in a row, don't judge.

 If you're an eagle eyed reader you might notice that my boots and biker jacket actually feature in my last outfit of the day post which I think is a real testament to how much I love these pieces especially the jacket which I actually bought three years ago from a last chance to buy rail in Oxford Circus so I can't believe Topshop have brought this exact jacket out again this season. My mum has actually snapped it up in the most dreamy forest green shade so watch this space for a potential jacket swap situation. After some searching online I've finally got my eye on a few contenders for my truly sparse knitwear collection but each item is darn pricey, what is it with quality knitwear costing a bomb? Another area of my wardrobe that is lacking is my denim collection and I wholly blame Lizzie for my new found feeling of blue jean inadequacy, that girl knows how to rock a pair of jeans and has since confirmed my fears that an array of skinny jeans no longer cuts the fashion mustard.

 This week has been a pretty laid back one and I must admit I've quite enjoyed spending some quality time at home with my favourite girl. Speaking of home more finishing touches are being made to the kitchen with Craig tiling one of the walls (only two to go), I've been looking at fabric for curtains and our new dining table is arriving Tuesday. Can you believe I'm more excited about its arrival than I would be a Topshop parcel. Someone send help.
