How To Style This Seasons Statement Gillet!

Gilet's....... some people love them and some people hate them, I'm not sure which category you fall into, but they get a thumbs up from me.

They are super easy easy to style, and come in a wide rage of colours, textures and price ranges. This season is of course all about Faux fur and Shearling designs....I'm loving these two styles click here and here.


How To Style:

Wear over dresses and style with Over the Knee Boots

Button up crisp white shirt and skinny jeans

Polo necks and mini skirts, ankle boots or Over the Knee Bots
















Gillets can sometimes add weight to you and make you look chunkier that you are, after seeing these pictures I realised that I should have added a belt to cinch in my waist and create some curves. So if  wearing a gillet dont forget to consider adding a belt.

Gilet: Matalan (last season) Similar here £35, here £30,
                                              here £35 and here £22
Dress: Boohoo available here
Heels: River Island (last season) Similar here
Lips: NYX Soft Matt Lip Cream- Dubai available here

Off The Shoulder Dress















This little number is from Boohoo, sometimes you just need something light, breezy and non restricting to wear and this little dress ticked all those boxes.

The choker is actually a matching waist tie belt that comes with the dress but I just wasn't feeling wearing it that way so I cut it and made it into a choker instead. I love playing around with fashion,  don't be afraid to make it whatever you want it to be; cut, glue and sew to your hearts content. I'm going to start doing d.i.y's on the blog so keep an eye out for that.

I know Boohoo can be a bit hit and miss when it comes to quality but I think it has improved so much.  My tip is if it looks cheap, then it most likely is, so you should leave it be. Unfortunately this dress is sold out but there are a ton of off the shoulder dresses on the site that are gorgeous, (choker included.)
