You know you love your new footwear when planning your outfit becomes a case of, ‘what can I wear today with my boots?’ rather than ‘what footwear will go with today’s outfit?’.
I’d been on the hunt for a pair of practical knee high leather boots for a while and so I was delighted to be able to get my hands on these. They are practical and stylish (a combination that I love) and the cushioning on the sole makes them super comfy too.
It was cold and raining on Saturday in Manchester (surprise surprise) and so I teamed my new boots with a polo neck, poncho and faux fur jacket on top and to avoid looking completely drowned by layers I went for tights and a simple skirt on the bottom.
What I wore:
Knee high boot – Clarks
Faux Fur Coat – H&M
Knitted poncho – H&M
Polo-neck top – H&M
‘S’ Initial earrings – Primark
Skirt – H&M
Real leather tote bag – Bershka (similar here)
It’s at this point I risk looking like a walking advertisement for H&M. I can assure you this was not my plan when dressing. Like I said, I just wanted to wear my new boots, so in all honesty I could have thrown on any old combination, it was only later that I realised I gone all ‘brand matchy’.
Saturday was spent with the boyfriend. We finally went to the cinema to watch The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1. Then afterwards we went for a few cocktails round the Northern Quarter before going for curry at my favourite Indian restaurant.

Just discovered your blog via the Clarks website and I love your style! I’m obsessed (really obsessed) with knee high boots at the minute. And you are seriously stunning omg.
What did you think of the Hunger Games? My boyfriend and I went the other week too and loved it.

Ah thank you! I saw you followed on Twitter, so of course I returned the favour and then went to check out your blog also. I love your outfits and that purple knit polo neck in one of your recent posts is gorgeous, I can’t believe you made that!
…And I really enjoyed The Hunger Games too, just can’t wait to watch the final part now!
