Friday night last minute outfit! EEK!

I wasn't planning on going out on Friday night... so with a last minute decision on my hands, what was I going to wear?

Arrghhh with the pressure of having to go out for the next bus I picked out a couple of things but in the end I wore one of my favourite outfits which I know I would enjoy wearing.

I wore a Hobbs NW3 dress in navy blue with my favourite glitter collar plus Topshop 'All mine' boots and Mulberry Lily bag.

Found similar in dark red

Out with my friend Miss E on Friday

Here are a few other times I have enjoyed wearing this combo out, however there is another reason why I love wearing this collar so much.

I bought it about 3 years ago from H&M I was going to wear it with a jumper...but that didn't happen mainly because it didn't fit round my neck. I started asking family members who I knew were quite handy with needle and thread if they could change the fastening to a bow instead of the hook.

I then tried to give it away to a few friends but they said no you love it you should keep it, you never know. Little did I know that one day I would never have it off my neck.

I didn't realise when I was bigger that I was carrying weight around my neck, it's not something you think of when you know you want to lose a few lbs. You look at the obvious things, tummy, legs, face. It's the little things that add up and really make you happy :-)

I wore the combo out when I went out with my mum in March

What outfit do you like wearing when you are going out with friends?

Love Miss K xx

Blazer! Key item #misskautumncapsule

When building my capsule wardrobe I found the key item has to be a good selection of Blazer's.

Topshop

What is in my Blazer collection?
Topshop Black with Navy Sleeves
Topshop Burgandy
River Island Blue Tartan
Zara Yellow
Zara Yellow Bomber
Miss Selfridge Orange/red
M&S Navy

By investing into a good collection of Blazers means you have a good variety of mix and matching with the other items in your capsule wardrobe.

I try to keep some just for weekends so I look forward to wearing them and some will suit being off duty with jeans and casual skirts than formal items.

Zara Yellow

M&S Navy

Zara Yellow Bomber

How many blazers do you have in your wardrobe?

Ooo I have also got a new hat (bought before 1st September! lol) to add a bit of something to my capsule wardrobe. Its not quite autumn just yet so I will probably have to wait to wear this out! Only £7 in the Topshop sale!

Love Miss K xx

Introducing Verity! My new Whistles Backpack

Meet Verity, my new backpack from Whistles.

I deliberated over this purchase for a few weeks after spotting it in the Whistles store in Leeds. I haven't had a backpack since I was at school so I wasn't sure how much I would use it, plus are they cool?

After looking for a less expensive alternative, I gave up and bought Verity.

Made of beautiful soft grey leather with a large loop handle (so can still use as a regular handbag) plus 2 adjustable straps.

Super useful small zip pocket on the front hidden by a fold of leather with a magnet closing.

The main zip also folds over and fastens with another magnet. Inside is one zip up pocket to keep valuables. The lining is a lovely beige cotton which means you can see whats inside and its not a black hole. It helps all my accessories are pink! Total Winner!

I think it is going to need some getting used to as it is more effort to get your bag off your back to get your purse out but maybe I will buy less? haha

Inspired by the Cara Delevgine collection for Mulberry it looks like backpacks are here to stay. Blogger Tanya Burr was recently provided with a free Mulberry for a photoshoot and she has been sporting it everywhere she goes since and its worth £1600! Eeek! 100% jealous but even I can't justify that for a Mulberry.
