FASHION| BOOHOO STYLE SWAP

If you know me well enough, you know I love a good challenge. Doing something out of the norm, brightens my day and gets the creative juices flowing. My creative flair was definitely working over time recently, especially since the lovely guys over at Boohoo, contacted me about taking part in the Boohoo style swap. The basic premise was to pair British fashion bloggers with bloggers from Paris. I had to choose a boohoo outfit for my partner and she did the same with me. My partner was Juliette from Who let the girls out.

The purpose of the Style Swap was not only to showcase the different approaches to fashion in different countries, but also to encourage bloggers to dress a little out of their comfort zones and embrace trends that they may have been too afraid of, or not considered before. Although I consider myself to be blessed with a fashionable gene, this was going to be a tricky challenge. I mean what if we didn't get each others style? Nonetheless I decided to give it a go and allow myself to be styled by Juliette and I did the same for her (I'll link you to her post when it is up).

Juliette did a great job! She totally got my style, edgy meets feminine. What I love is the edgy-ness that the drapey jacket and fedora hat brought. Very gothic! However, the frilled lapels and V neck cut added that feminine touch.

I could see that she really did her homework and presented me with something with pattern. I love patterns and bright and the fact she picked this for me, I was super happy about it. Also this playsuit I am wearing reminds me of the jumpsuit I wore on this shoot. Its like the jumpsuits little sister. The fringed bag is so boho, and chic, I don't think I actually own anything like this. Perfect little size for a day out or Wireless, when I go on Friday.

The shoes are just great, totally my style and east to walk in. However, I will get the straps tightened to make them more secure though. But they are comfortable nonetheless.
All in all, I am happy that Juliette was paired with me as she really got my style. I hope you like yours too Juliette.
