Tod's Gommino Heaven Driving Shoes

Here's a little something I put together to show you guys a few things I've been lusting over lately! As you can probably tell, Zara makes a large footprint in the chosen items.. what can I say. Their Spring collection is absolutely fab, so many lovely bright colours to lift anyone's mood! But they still keep the basics game extremely strong. I added in the straw-esque woven hat as it's quite similar to a wide brimmed, black felt fedora I have from M&S, but as it's creeping closer to warmer weather, something a bit less heavy like this Zara hat would do perfectly. 

It's quite clear I like to keep my wardrobe colour palette to a minimum. I had my 'colours done' a while back (there shall be a post on what that means in the near future!) and it turns out white and black suit me, therefore I feel the need to buy anything in those colours I can get my little mitts on! I guess it helps in the long run that my whole wardrobe matches! I'm trying my very hardest to infuse a little bit of colour here and there, but it usually just results in silver accessories (whoops!) which leads me on perfectly to those oh, so beautiful Tod's. I have loved the idea of owning a pair of these shoes for a while now, they're so effortlessly chic. One of those items that can make an incredibly basic outfit seem special. Now, unfortunately I am a poor student, without the funds for all of these pretties! But fear not, I am eager to finish this degree (2 weeks and counting, yay!) and get myself back into work, earning all the monies I can! It'll be a delicious feeling having my own money in the bank again. 

Enough of these ramblings!

I hope you enjoyed this post, what are you guys loving in the shops at the mo?

Get to know me!

Hi, I'm Jazz. This is my face.

I'm a 21 year old literally about to graduate from Art School/ University... daunting I know. My blog will consist of lifestyle, fashion and art posts with a bit of cinema, books and whatever takes my fancy! I am a self confessed book worm, a little bit of a nerd, who HAS to pet any cute/fluffy animal that comes my way.

I thought I'd do a little 'Get to know me' post, because if you're a little nosey like me, it's always interesting to read what peoples lives are like! I found a couple of quiz type tags, so decided to merge both!

Delve on in guys...

Let us begin...

Hello Blogger world!

As you may have guessed, my name is Jazz. 
I'll keep this short and sweet, here's a full on, proper kind of post. I'll work out some kind of get to know me later on but today was absolutely fabulous and I wanted to share with you what I have been up to! (This may be quite photo-heavy...beware!)

My boyfriend and I decided to take my Alsatian (Charlie) to a local woods, so he could run around like a loony in a place different from where he's usually walked. The weather was absolutely lovely, blue skies and big fluffy clouds, lots of fresh air for the lungs. Mmm mm...

Here's the cheeky chap himself!

Here we are attempting to FaceTime my mum in Italy, 
safe to say Charlie was having NONE of it!

Boys will be boys... seeking out any form of den!

Here's a slightly more loving photo of us ha!

 After a super long trek around the woods, Charlie was absolutely shattered. We jumped back into the car and drove to our local broads for a well deserved cuppa and sausage roll! (and maybe even an ice cream...) 

Anyway, I hope you liked my first ever blog post! 

What has everybody else been up to this Easter weekend?

Toodles!
