Loafer success at last!!

As I thought.....2 lovely pairs have come along at once. Just typical!! After trying what seemed like every shape and style I decided I wanted a soft driving shoe style loafer but couldn't decide between tan or brown......anyway these are somewhere in between!! These little beauties are courtesy of ASOS and I was over the moon when I found them in the outlet section reduced to £18! They are leather too!

Had another success with the ASOS order as I had been on the look out for the perfect navy pea coat to complete my preppy look. My preoccupation for the pea coat started to take shape when I saw this picture of Michelle Williams sporting hers in an article about what celebrity mums wear on the school run.......if only I looked this cool!

I have to say though that I think this is quite an achievable school run look that doesn't scream that you tried too hard and thankfully it's an easy style to steal. So now you can see where my fixation for the preppy look has sprung from! This coat is River Island from ASOS and I have to say I can't wait to wear it and start stealing Michelle's style.

 

Which brings me back to some more loafers. So like I said I have now found not 1 but 2 pairs of loafers! Tried these on in New Look the other day, even stood in the queue with them but I was short on time and the assistant was taking an age with the customer in front of me so I left without them. Once the lovely pea coat arrived I realised I would have to hotfoot it back to New Look ASAP to grab these as they would be the perfect accompaniment to the coat as they are the same bluey-black in colour.
 

 

This turn of events has meant there are a couple more additions to the now ever growing wish list. Just when I've convinced myself I don't need another stitch of clothing and all my footwear holes have been filled.....I have now become obsessed with check shirts and this one from Zara shall almost definitely be my next purchase. Love, love, love the Peter Pan collar on this shirt! 

So it goes without saying that I need this v-neck navy sweater in my life as I already have a crew. This is another great little basic from Uniqlo

There!! Now the wardrobe is bulging and as far as I can see I've scratched every itch clothing wise. I am preppy-ed up to the hilt! I wonder what the next infatuation will be?

Only have a couple of outfits to share.....no longer going to bore anyone with the work wear, it's not worthy!! 

Can no longer deny the boots an airing as the temperatures are rapidly cooling!!
