The Sweatshirt

Sweatshirts? Yes, sweatshirts. Once a garment only to be used on a cold winters evening curled up by the fireplace, sweatshirts have been totally reinvented. The look above showcases a look ideal for running errands, meeting friends, and of course, brunch. Who doesn't love to look ultra chic while feeling warm and cosy? Carry on the loose-fit silhouette into some destroyed boyfriend jeans or go for the skort option. Add glamour to the simplistic and casual look by pairing it with some cobalt blue sandals, to accentuate the blue in the embroidery on the sweatshirt, and a shiny chain necklace. Although this look might seem slightly done, or perhaps it is the skort that everyone and their mother have been wearing this season, it really is the epitome of sweatshirts in 2013. Sweatshirts have been totally transformed from a slouchy thing you throw on while you hang around the house to a must have street style item that a girl couldn't live without. 

What are your thoughts on sweatshirts? Would you splurge on a designer piece of lounge wear or stick to the high street?

Whenever I'm feeling slightly under the weather and have to spend my days in bed sipping on green tea, I tend to lust over the variety of pretty things on Net-a-Porter or Shopbop. Here are my current picks.

1. Ray Bans Clubmaster Sunglasses.  I have been craving these sunnies since last summer and I just cant seem to get enough of them. Its the slightly vintage look the half frame gives and just the fact that they look surprisingly good on me, surprising because I can never seem to find glasses that don't make my face look the size of a pea. I want need these now. 

2. J Brand Aiden Boyfriend Jeans. Boyfriend jeans may be the most manrepelling clothing item ever made, but they are so chic. These ones from J Brand are cropped, distressed and light wash, which makes them the quintessential summer denim. 

3. Jimmy Choo Biel Wedges.  What is it that makes these shoes so gorgeous? Is it the stark white colour? Is it the unexpected yet so practical wedge? Or just the refined simplicity the shoes carries? Whatever it is, I long the day these are in my closet. 

4. Lulu Frost Crystal Necklace. This stunning piece is the ultimate representation of a crystal necklace. The intricate details and the exaggerated crystals are just so me. 

5. Rebecca Minkoff Mac. Ah, the Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Clutch. The bag that every youtuber/ blogger has been coveting since it's release. Its practical, its pretty, and its pink. What more could a girl want?
