30 for 30 - Day 4 & Everybody Everywear - The Blazer

So I am gonna have to make this a mega quick post as I am on my way out the door to work, and if I don't sort the post out now (Monday Night) I won't have time before tomorrow. I decided to roll two challenges into one post and use one outfit with just a little difference.

First up my 30 for 30 Day 4 outfit (I apologise for my creased skirt but this was a quick shot taken before packing the outfit and I assure you it was ironed before it was actually worn out of the house)
Outfit made up of: 4+13+22+26
4. I.N.C
13. Nygard Collection
22. F+F
26. TKMaxx
+
Random Leggings
Random Feather and bead necklace
Random Ring
Hair band from Canada
Some pattern mixing as you can see. I have been wanting to pair these 2 items together for a while but just hadn't gotten round to it. I think the strong flower motif on both makes them work well together. Plus I don't own a lot of yellow so think it's great the two piece work with each other. I think I could also do this outfit with a plain white tank top in the summer, when it is a little warmer.

Now for my second part. This months Everybody Everywear item was - The Classic Blazer. I didn't put one in my 30 for 30 - so this doesn't count as a 30 for 30 outfit but I am using the basic items with the blazer. This is how I change my look very simply from casual to business. Drop the cardigan, necklace and bow hairband - pull on a smart black blazer and don my glasses and voila... a chic business look
Blazer - River Island
Brooch - Vintage

This was worn to a business meeting with my new editor.



Ok so thats all, coz if I don't leave now I'm gonna miss my bus.
Hope you like my outfits for both the challenges. What would you pair my skirt or cardigan with? Any suggestions?

30 for 30 - Day 3 & Going Red for Women

Here is my Day 3 of the 30 for 30 challenge, plus today is the Going Red for Women day (the whole month is heart disease awareness month but a few of us have decided to 'Go Red' today, find us all here).
So the point was to wear red to help raise awareness of Heart Disease. Here is my red accented outfit! I will hopefully be doing this every friday of February, but I only have this waistcoat with Red on in my 30 for 30 so will have to style it 3 different ways!
Outfit made up of: 10+13+20+24+26
10. M&S Limited Collection
13. Nygard Collection
20. H&M
24. Debenhams Collection
26. TKMaxx
+
Vintage red bead necklace
Red bangles via ebay
Internacionale Red Bow Ring
Claire's Red Hairband

I wore this little ensemble to the theatre tonight. I went to see the Circus of Horrors with my sister. It was good, weird and slightly sickening but actually not as good as I thought it would be. A little disappointing actually, but I did enjoy it.
Has anyone else seen any of The Circus of Horror shows? What were your thoughts? Or is anyone thinking of seeing them?

Plus is anyone else doing the Going Red for Women challenge?
