leather hearts

dress (worn as top), necklace: bits and bows*, skirt: topshop, leather jacket: dorothy perkins

This gorgeous hearts dress was sent to me by the lovely Sarah from Bits and Bows, but I've worn it as a top here instead tucked into my black skirt from topshop. Bits and Bows is a cute little online jewellery store and Sarah also makes her own made-to-measure clothing which is so impressive as she makes the nicest creations! You should go and check it out now! The dress has a little heart print all over it which is really nice when you want to be casual but brings a bit more detail to the outfit. I was impressed with the quality and can definitely see this being the perfect top to throw on when I don't know what else to wear, really simple, cute and effortless. The little moustace necklace is great for accessorising with and comes on a long chain which I like!

The leather jacket is something that I got as a birthday present a few weeks ago and I love it so much. I literally wear it nearly every day, I think leather is just so classic and wearable with anything. I'm actually doing a trend project on leather at the moment on my college course which is really fun and I enjoy researching about it because it's something that never really goes out of fashion, especially the leather/biker jacket. Everyone has one!

What do you think about the outfit? Have you ever bought anything from Bits and Bows before? What are your thoughts on leather?
