Call Me Lively

A while ago I posted about my love for Jessica Alba's style particularly when she wears Kenzo, and one of my favourite looks of hers was the amazing Kenzo yellow neoprene skirt she wore to the MTV movie awards. On my lust list is definitely a neoprene skirt of any kind in any colour. Below is another Kenzo skirt but in a shorter length and it is divine. I love the shape of the skirts and the fabric is so soft yet structured it is so wearable with also being a statement piece in itself. x

Call Me Collected

When the sun is out you can't go wrong with a long sheer kimono. I adore this one from Forever 21 with its cute earthy rose print and long shape. I kept in with a little hint of a boho vibe and accessorised with black leather boots and a black hat. x

Call Me Team

I love playing around with textures and colours in any shape and form. I was inspired by this Suno Cotton Crop and Pencil Skirt with its amazing structure and the woven gold thread. Playing around with colour I thought hits of electric pink would add a bit of interest. And for the accessories layers of gold, gold, and more gold because well, why not? x

Call Me Mine

A few of you may have seen me post these amazing floral trousers on my Instagram - @deepalipatel - a week or so ago, I got them from the East End Thrift Store in East London. They do these unbelievably amazing £1 jumble sales - yes everything is £1!!! As you can imagine they can be quite hit and miss, but with a little patience, a good eye and some mental outfit building you can find some real gems. I've been to about 2 so far and I've got some pretty amazing bits, these floral trousers and this coat being top on the list. 

I adore the print on the trousers and they are super high waisted, which means they hide the bits I don't like so much (bonus points for that). As the print on the trousers is quite bold I opted for all black pieces to accompany them. This gorgeous wool coat was another piece I found at the Jumble Sale. I've been after a long black boyfriend coat for a while and saw this at the Jumble Sale and couldn't believe my eyes. I obviously had to give it a pretty vigorous dry clean and steam, but even before then it was in a amazing condition. I love the little button details on the tail and the gorgeous silk lining.

Even for general vintage shopping I'd recommend The East End Thrift Store, if you're ever in that side of London definitely go! x

Call Me Flow

I went vintage shopping with my amazing friends the weekend before last. Geraint of His Name Is Fashion and Sinead of Hackney Rose. We went to the East End Thrift Store's £1 jumble sale, and boy did I find some amazing pieces. You will definitely see me sporting my fabulous finds soon. 

As the weather was glorious I wore my amazing white slip dress from Forever 21. It has beautiful lace detailing on the front and around the sides and is such a comfortable piece. I literally felt like I was wearing a nightie, but to stop it looking like I was I paired my dress with a studded leather jacket and biker boots. x

Call Me Hint

Maybe life is better looking through Rose-Tinted Glasses, I know mine would be if I was looking out of these dream worthy Mink Pink sunglasses. I love monochrome themed looks that have a hit of colour thrown in, but I always find that my percentage of black in the looks I normally wear is much higher. This Spring/Summer I will definitely be getting more white in my wardrobe and in key statement pieces like a coat and accessories. I adore this Trager Delaney white wool coat (how amazing is the detail on the shoulder?) and the ASOS white sandals. x

Call Me Laced

Here's a look from a week or so ago, I was trying to channel a bit of festival inspired fashion mixed with my general go-to's for spring and summer; denim and lace. I'm actually wearing a floral embroidered lace top layered over a lace dress, because let's be honest, can you ever have too much lace? 

Other things I'll definitely be reaching for is my oversized denim jacket, tan accessories, and any sort of gold jewellery. The more the merrier! x
