CO-ORD STYLING









Kimono - New Look 
Co-ord - Ark Clothing 
Boots - Topshop 

I have scoured the planet for a co-ord set that suits me and finally I stumbled upon this beauty by accident at the Ark Clothing shop in Nottingham (they also have a website). It's exactly the right transitional pattern from summer to autumn.. and winter. Monochrome never fails and this is such a cute flower pattern. It's got a kinda 60s vibe which is really on trend at the minute... Twiggy-esque outfits are everywhere. It's a really flattering one too.. the top is not toooo short although it is cropped so it hides any massive dinner you've just consumed. It's also really versatile, I've already teamed the top with the pastel blue skirt I featured previously on my blog because I think it's such a waste if you can only wear them together. Are kimonos still a thing? I know it's not exactly the Great British Summertime anymore but this is black so it's acceptable. This kimono goes really well with the co-ord as it gives it a gothic edge. I felt inspired by the amazing Melonlady and her collection of kimonos to pair this together, go check her out for more inspo. Finally the boots.. chunky boots are literally everywhere at the minute. Admittedly mine are last years Topshop offering, so unfortunately there's no cleared sole to them, but any chunky boot is such a good investment as they stand the test of time and changing trends.

I've got the whole week off work so I'm gonna be posting more outfits very soon! Please give me a follow on social media and bloglovin' and feel free to comment! I'm trying to reply to the previous comments but my laptop is on it's last legs and is a law unto itself.. sometimes it decides I'm not allowed to reply but I will eventually. Thanks so much for reading
