Destination: London

Being a Manchester girl I don't get to visit the busy city of London very often (thanks so very expensive train fares!). But myself and Emily headed down to meet up with our best friend, Emma, who we hadn't seen in five years. After an emotional reunion we had the best weekend shopping, eating and catching up after what felt like a lifetime. I had the best time and if I could I would relive the weekend over and over so I thought I would share a few snaps with you.

The Culottes Edit

I love the culotte trend, some people seem to pull them off so so well. As I am quite a petite size, I thought culottes may look ridiculous and over bearing on me, but then I spotted these baby's...on ebay...and I won them for a mere £3. They are vintage marks and spencer culottes in a monochrome print (made for me obviously) and just my size, some say it is fate.  They are less baggy than some designs going around at the minute, which for me I think suits me more. So here it is, how I styled out the culotte trend on a budget.

Culottes: vintage off ebay

Top: Topshop

Boots: pull and bear

I kept the styling simple, I like minimalistic looks, nothing to fancy but something that still looks like you have made an effort. I styled the monochrome culottes with my all time favourite black boots and a simple white shirt. I then forced my friend Emily out on the street to take pictures of me, of course.

How are you styling the culotte trend?
