Smart Casual

My outfit is for a day of running errands and meeting up with friends for lunch. I’m a big fan of basic staples, like a comfy flowy blouse, smartened up with a blazer coat, black statement floppy hat and a quirky blue stone necklace. This is such a simple, minimalistic outfit that can be easily put together to pull off the ‘smart casual’ look.  Im not ready to ditch the jacket yet so this light and trendy blazer alternative seems weather appropriate.
For my makeup I have done a simple smokey eye paired up with a muted brown lip.
Face: Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation in Light Beige 
Contour: Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit in Light to Medium

Turtle Neck and Camouflage Combo

The transitional period is upon us! It’s not quite warm enough to ditch the jumpers, but its not cold enough to wear our parkas and fur jackets. This green affair seemed appropriate to tackle the British weather. A chunky turtle neck from Topshop and an over sized army camouflage jacket from Urban Outfitters.
I’m a little tomboy at heart and love anything oversized or chunky. When I seen this jacket it seemed the perfect statement piece I have been looking for and was screaming “Charl!” So I had to get it!
This is a perfect look for hanging out with friends, going into town shopping or maybe a few chilled out drinks in a bar or pub. The jacket gives an edge to the cutesy roll neck jumper peeping underneath.
