DENIM MIDI-SKIRT

The rise of the denim midi-skirt. Being a tall girl, skirts and dresses can cause issues in the Spring/Summer months, but trending this year is the midi-skirt – the perfect solution to my long-leg issues! This ASOS midi denim skirt is a killer piece, the length, colour, material and tie-waist detailing combine to create the most figure flattering skirt on the market. Here I styled the skirt with both a simple ecru ribbed crop top and a tucked off-white sweat, finished with high-top trainers for a relaxed look. The skirt could be dressed up too – a tulle or silk crop top with heeled sandals would create a fab dressy option. Stylish, chic & simple.

Lace & Beads is your answer to darling, detailed pieces! Their top collection is to-die for. This tulle ruffle blouse in cream with black polka dots is a statement piece, exclusive to ASOS. The ruffled V neck and tie waist belt are such beautiful details. The flared peplum style is so figure flattering and looks great with leather-look figure hugging trousers. This fit is ideal for a yummy brunch, ladies lunch or cocktail evening. Here I styled an evening look with Topshop gunmetal silver stilettos.

THE CUTEST BUCKET HAT

This cream faux-fur jacket and cream ASOS faux-fur bucket hat are a dream match. The H&M cream jacket is incredibly thick, and the cropped arm length is super cute. The jacket has no collar, which is a unique style feature, I normally dislike no collar on a coat/jacket, but here it works. The jacket is only £34.99; however, it looks and feels much more luxurious. The concealed hook and eye fastening is an elegant feature. The ASOS bucket hat is so darling, I love the current bucket hat trend! Paired together the jacket and hat combo calls for a chilly winter day; which is a daily occurrence in the UK. I wore dotty tights, a velvet mini-skirt and thigh-high leather boots with the faux-fur pieces. I finalised the look with a genuine Burberry silk scarf; the beige and black tones tied the whole look together. A faux-fur moment!

ELEPHANT GREY SHORTS

Elephant grey is officially my favourite colour. Move over black leather shorts, these shorts are so unique. The oversized fit and rigid faux-leather material makes the shorts appear and feel expensive. The tie-belt draws in the waist, making the shorts super flattering. I styled the look for a daytime occasion; with my Zara pussy bow organza knit, Mango cream boots and Gucci bag. The look can easily be styled for evening with a satin top and heels.

AUTUMN POWER DRESSING

Autumn suiting is a sure way to stand out! Whether you’re going to work, lunch or for day-drinks a suit is an edgy option and can be styled to ‘suit’ any occasion! Masculine chic to its fullest. When I wear this H&M x Giuliva Heritage collaborative collection suit I feel powerful. The single-breasted camel twill jacket has a dramatic wide lapel and feminine aesthetic, finished with tortoise shell decorative buttons and a lavish striped lining. The ankle-length twill tailored trousers fit like a dream. As I have previously said my height makes trouser shopping a strain, but this shape is truly perfect. H&M collaborations are incredible; they team up with a luxury company to produce more accessible products. You can really feel and see the difference in quality in this collection. The ecru calf-length coat made with Italian premium wool is refined personified; the wide lapels, deep pockets and tie-belt details are dreamy. I styled a Zara shirt bodysuit and my father’s grey twill tie for the ultimate mannish vibe. The Zara camel felt fedora and tan leather belt accessorise the suit. This look is utterly Voguish; an autumn-must-have style.

SWEATSHIRT DRESS

I adore wearing cream in the transitional period. This H&M cream sweatshirt dress with fluted hem is an ESSENTIAL casual item for this AW/20. Everything about this dress is charming; the colour, oversized fit and fluted bottom, all of which make the design refreshing. I find dresses incredibly comfy, this one is especially cosy due to the sweatshirt material. I accessorised the dress with my ASOS chunky gold chain necklace and bracelet to add décor to the darling aesthetic. Of course, yet again…I styled the look with my Mango cream leather fashion wellies for a monochrome colour scheme.

BRODERIE MIDI DRESS

Midi dresses are my favourite! As I’m tall midi dresses are the perfect length and fit. This Zara oyster white midi broderie dress with tiered bodice and puff sleeves is a precious design, ideal for the forthcoming Autumn. As the weather turns inevitably chillier a jacket or woolly jumper would be the perfect layering options to stay warm. My Mango cream leather fashion wellies are impeccable for this time of year, especially with the drizzly weather. I paired the prim dress with my darling Zara canvas grab bag with beige piping.

FAUX LEATHER JUMPSUIT

Published on September 17, 2020September 17, 2020 by houseofmaddisonLeave a comment

Monochrome is my A/W go to, you can never go wrong with a black & cream combo. For as long as I can remember I wanted a leather jumpsuit. I came across this Zara faux leather culotte leg jumpsuit in the sale at £9.99…I couldn’t believe it. I had never seen it before and ordered it straight away! Finding jumpsuits that fit correctly is a pain due to my height and body shape, but this piece instantly clung to all the right places. As soon as I tried it I knew that my Mumma’s Vintage cream organza frill shirt with pussy bow tie and oversized cuff would look beyond tasteful layered underneath. The jumpsuit is slightly oversized, so I decided a statement velvet belt with gold buckle would add a chic element to the outfit, while drawing in the waist. I threw on my Gucci Marmont shoulder bag and Mango cream leather fashion wellies to add splashes of cream to compliment the shirt and I totally fell in love with the overall vibe. Bring on the chill!

FAUX LEATHER TRENCH

Faux leather is ALL THE RAGE for this coming season. Look on any fashion websites new-in and you will spot countless faux-leather options. Around this time every year I begin searching for THE winter coat and this year it is proving to be difficult; TOO MUCH CHOICE. For the autumnal period this Zara off-white faux leather trench coat with wrist buckle, collar and waist belt is a vibe; literally the angelic version of classic black leather outfits from The Matrix. Off-white is a favourite of mine at this time of year, the clean brightness of white always makes you stand out against the dull British weather. Although the coat comes with a matching leather tie belt, here I replaced it with my Mumma’s vintage silver metal Guess belt; this allowed me to draw the waist in more and the Zara diamanté branch statement earrings add a jazzy vibe. I wore my Mango cream leather fashion wellies and the ASOS nude silk scarf. The final look is so a la mode.

Jeans, a white shirt and tan accessories is a classic fit. I always find the autumnal transitional period so hard to dress for; England seems to have a spout of great weather in September so it’s hard to know what to wear. Here I styled a Zara linen shirt tied with River Island blue denim straight leg jeans and Zara camel kitten heels with diamanté ankle strap. The mix of dressy heels and a casual outfit is so chic, brilliant for shopping or a lunch date. The tan trilby and Glam & Co jute tote bag add a lavish element to the basic denim and white combo. Leaving the summer behind is sad, but I LOVE the glamour of autumn/winter dressing.
