Keep Calm, It's Boot Season

Hey Guys,

I hope you're all well and having a lovely weekend. Today is a long overdue post on my new boots I was sent to review from JD Williams (http://jdwilliams.co.uk/).

Among the many things I love about autumn fashion (layering, thick opaque tights, fluffy cardigans to name a few), I always love to dig out a good pair of boots to wear now that my flat dolly shoes just aren't cutting it, who wants chilly toes after all. 

JD Williams are a regular haunt for me for shoes, mainly because they do wide fit, stock size 9's and in funky styles. There are so many to choose from, at the moment there are 777 styles in their boots section over all, 79 of which are new in which I think is pretty impressive and they cover everything from wellies, ankle boots, knee highs, mid length and shoe boots. 

The shoes I will be sharing today are the Catwalk Collection Buckle Biker Boots*.

They are a gorgeous soft black leather with buckle detailing, an exposed gold outer zip and metal hardware to the heel, perfect to wear with a cute dress and leggings/tights or jeans. 

I paired my boots for this outfit post with a plain black duster jacket and my trusting grey marl skater dress over leggings which is a typical work or evening outfit for me. 

They are really comfy and I love that I can wear a woolly pair of socks with them because I have the extra room from the wide fitting meaning i'm all nice and toasty and I'll get loads of wear from them all through winter.

What do you guys think of my new boots? Let me know in the comments below and I hope you enjoyed my outfit post, more to come soon!

Thanks for reading, love Sally X

#24hr Shoes ft Evans

Hey Everyone!

Today is a special post featuring not only one but TWO outfits, in collaboration with the Evans #24hrs Shoes campaign. I was kindly sent a pair of Black Elastic Panel Chelsea Boots and was challenged to show how they can be worn both day and night, let's see how I fared. 

First up is my day look. I have styled my hair in a half up, half down do and done a pretty makeup look using pink and purple tones. I love the feather print on the dress which perfectly goes with the colour of the leaves outside. The dress is a light weight chiffon brought in with a belt and it has pleating detail to the neckline and a double frill hemline perfect for swooshing around. 

Dress: Evans, Lovedrobe Multicoloured Feather Print Belted Dress*

Cardigan: Gok Wan for TU

Necklace: Evans, currently sold out*.

Tights: Evans Black 40 Denier Tights*

Next up is my evening look. I have opted to wear my hair down with a cute embellished hairband and I have switched my makeup to more golden and black tones on the eyes and a bit of bronze to the cheeks with a nude lip. The dress is a stunner, it's beautifully cut and just so flattering with a chic print to top it off. My favourite details are the sleeves which have a lovely wrap over design that I haven't seen before on a dress. 

Dress: Evans, That Day Multi Floral Print Dress*

Cardigan: Primark

Clutch Bag and Bracelets: Tk Maxx 

Tights: Evans Black 40 Denier Tights*

I hope you guys like both of the looks, comment below with which one you like best (just for fun). 

I just want to say a huge thank you to Evans for letting me take part, I've had so much fun putting this post together and I think I've really proved that the gorgeous boots look amazing for the full 24 hours. Let me know if you want me to do any more posts like this where I take one item and transition it from day to night, I love seeing other bloggers do that kind of thing.

Until next time, thanks for reading!

Love Sally X
