Transitional Pieces - Snakeskin Prints

Snakeskin has made a move from shoes and bags to clothes for AW and I love it!! I was not sure to start with but as soon as I found this shirt in the sale in Zara I fell in love with it - it's the new Leopard!! Stick to neutrals for a grown up take on the trend.

Today I am wearing a Zara Snakeskin Shirt with Leather Shorts.....


Chloe gave the slithery print a try for AW and so should you ...

More Printed T-Shirts ....

You can never go wrong with a printed T-Shirt and Denim Shorts! They are a staple in my wardrobe!

I picked up this cute Black Cropped Printed T-Shirt from Zara at the weekend - I have teamed it with some ASOS Denim Shorts, Tights, Primark Boots and my new favourite Lip Gloss Collection 2000 Lock N Hold's Rock Steady which is a lush Peach shade and lasts for ages!! I have about 20 Lip Glosses and this is my best bargain at just £2.99!




Kate Bosworth is a fan of the Printed T-Shirt and Denim Shorts combo too and even wore it to Coachella a couple of weeks back ..

The Orphan's Arm ..

I recently discovered an amazing new T-Shirt brand while searching on ASOS - The Orphan's Arm. The brand creates quirky prints hand printed in East London. The Orphan's Arm is a quintessentially English label who hark back over time.

Today I am wearing their Eros Is A Rotten Shot T-Shirt (which I am in love with and is a bargain at £35). I have teamed it with an American Apparel Charcoal Jersey Skirt and Black Loafers from Very.....



Other options available at ASOS include this Smitten Hearted Poets Club Race Vest priced at £30 ...... which I think I may have to get next!
