 Zoe looks bloody gorgeous in her Topshop dungarees! She pulls of the denim trend effortlessly by pairing them with her over the knee socks and patterned shirt. The outfit is perfect for spring when it's that blissful weather where we don't need our winter coats but maybe need some lovely socks for our toes! 

Beautiful. Effortless. Cool.

Q&A with Zoe:

Are you a trend follower or do you like paving your own way?

While I wouldn't say that I follow trends religiously (because things like this seasons tutu-craze and last years 'sport luxe' really AREN'T my cup of tea) I do treat Vogue like the bible; so when it comes to knowing whats trending this season, I usually know, and I usually have atleast 4 or 5 season staples. This season I guess it's a pair of dungarees, something neon, an ankle strap shoe, a crop top and a floral dress.

Staple items that will never leave your wardrobe?                          Staple items that will never leave my wardrobe? I LOVE anything high-waisted. High-waisted shorts. High-waisted skirts. High-waisted Jeans. High-waisted disco pants. They are super flattering for those of us with dooty legs

Fave trend at the moment?                                      I'm actually looking forward to the Great Gatsby release. I'm hoping the high-street will pick up on furs, beads and tassles; any excuse to kick on some 1920s glamour.

What do you think about Zoe's outfit?

He Wears, She Wears: Megan Ellaby

It's finally here! After a few weeks of planning, today is the launch day of my new feature - He Wears, She Wears. I wanted to create  a feature that celebrates your fashion tastes, your creativity and your styles. I think they're much more appealing than anything I could ever offer. So, let's start of with a beaut of a blogger called Megan. Here's the first She Wears post!

 Overalls- Topshop
Crop- Primark
Boots- Topshop
Fedora- Topshop

I absolutely ADORE Megan's style. I love how she mixes the laid back cool with the fedora and boots, with the super on trend overalls - a trend that is infused into every high street shop's collection this season. Definitely a look that I'll be trying myself sometime!

Make sure you all check out Megan's blog - it's a the perfect amount of OOTD posts mixed with trend predictions and designer profiles. I can see this blog becoming a regular on my blogroll!

 Megan says: "This outfit is quite a laidback look, a simple overall and black crop all rolled together with a shoe boot and a fedora. I have come quite attached to hats recently due to my rather stubborn fringe so a hat is an easy way to keep it at bay. These Topshop overalls are now my go to piece, they're so easy and go with a number of tops underneath whether its t shirts, crop tops or shirts, spiffing!"

Q&A with Megan:

How would you describe your style? Are you a trend follower or do you like paving your own way? 
I am a trend follower to an extent, I like to follow trends and I read Vogue and Elle religiously each month, but I know what I like and I know what suits me so not all trends are for me.

What or who in particular influences your fashion choices?
I have a few girl crushes who massively influence my looks, Alexa Chung in particular is a big one for me. 

What is fashion to you?
Fashion for me is feeling comfortable in what you're wearing, it's a way of expressing who you are and what you're about. Fashion for me is my life as I study it, write about it and work within it so Fashion is me.

What do you think? Do you love Megan's style as much as me?
