I'm Wearing... Zara Studio Double Buckle Trousers & GAP Wool Car Coat

GAP Wool Car Coat
I had been on the search for an oversized camel coat for a while when I came across this GAP Wool Car Coat last week. The shape is masculine without being too boxy and the colour makes a change from the usual black attire I wear day to day. I teamed this coat with a pair of Zara Studio Double Buckle Trousers and Kate Bosworth for Topshop Leather T-shirt. I love these double buckle trousers, kind of reminds me of the Celine Spring 2014 RTW collection!

Spring/Summer 2014 Shoe Edit - Slides

Slides SS2014 Shoe Trend

Slides SS2014 Shoe Trend
An undeniable trend for Spring/Summer 2014 is the slide. Whether it is the classic Birkenstock or a pair of Nike Benassi Slides; slides are next season's big thing (again). Last year we saw the fur-lined Birkenstock-style sandal from Celine (which subsequently drove thousands of fashion bloggers to run out and purchase a pair of Birks at a fraction of the price) but this year it's all about earthy tones, blacks, minimal lines, masculine styles, bulky shapes, velcro and single/double/cross bands.

Marni have a huge collection of 'Pool shoes' which include different leathers, PVC, metallics, embellishments, tassels, the list goes on... On the high-street, Zara have a basic black slide which will go with just about anything and online Senso have a wide range of footwear to choose from. 

Will you be buying a pair of slides this Spring/Summer? Or will you leave this trend by the pool-side?
