Magnify

I'm really loving big jumpers at the minute, they are great for work and do an excellent job at keeping me warm on these cold, windy days. In an attempt to make my black working uniform a little less 'black and working' I decided to wear grey instead. Haha, not so different from black but I did jazz it up with this x-ray print body con skirt.

Jumper and skirt from Topshop
Leggings from Jigsaw
Necklace from Zara Taylor Jewellery

I love the baggy on the top and tight on the bottom silhouette and this body con skirt is definitely more interesting that my plain black H&M one. I've had it for years and just love the skeletal print on it. The jumper has bat wings too and I do love me a cape shape so it's perfect. My Zara Taylor necklaces arrived and I can't get enough of them. This magnifying glass pendant is so kitsch and the perfect length.

I have the next two days off work which is nice, I think I'm going to go to Kingston to check out Primark and maybe a museum plus I really need to do some job hunting! Working in Snappy Snaps is fine for now and I'm loving all the photography tips I'm picking up but if I don't hurry up and get a science job my toxicology knowledge will go down the pan and I'll no longer be a 'recent graduate' it's all pretty depressing!

Looking forward to my lie in x

  4. I've never been brave enough to try body con, but it really suits you.

    I wish I could make things more interesting at work — we HAVE to wear jeans and a work t-shirt! How dull :(

  11. The print on the skirt is lovely, makes a nice change from florals and stripes. I have a day off tomorrow but I'm so tired I'm going to have a box set and pj's day x

  18. Oh that skirt is FAB! Now I've finally got over my fear of bodycon type skirts, I'm loving that type of silhouette. Baggy jumpers = win.

  27. I have also been a big jumper fan this winter - bought way more than I usually do. That skirt is immense by the way, looks fab. Just back from London, loved it and spent a few hours wandering round Kensington. Good tip!
