block heel & frayed hem jeans - tumblr steet style
The Seed jersey harem pant is still a relaxed and fashionable way to stay casual without wearing your running gear or jeans. They are well priced and because of the drawstring waist, you can wear lower on your hips or higher on your waist depending on your body type. Wear them with a drape front cardigan and tank or a cropped sweat top and layered tee shirt.
The wrap cardigan by Seed is very flattering when worn open at the front as it creates subtle drapes around the waist and tummy area and exposes the decolletage and neckline and layering piece underneath.
Cos is not yet online in Australia, but this cotton basic shirt is available in store. It is in a soft cotton stretch fabric and also excellent value. I love this with the collar up, worn with jeans as a fresh staple.
An easy under piece and bra friendly tank by Seed, which is available in black and white. The longer length means this can be rushed up to create slight drape around the tummy for a shorter length or left longer for a clean line.
The Saba biker jacket is classic and in super soft leather. The most elegant and desirable way to do "rock chick" with slimming stretch panels in the arms to give extra comfort and a contemporary silhouette.
Along with the leather biker jacket, I have my eye on these Marcs heels too. The slightly raised line at the back of the ankle and slim ankle strap makes this a very sassy shoe!
The Marcs washed silk blouse has to be my "go to staple" available in a range of colours and prints. Slightly fitted and relaxed this shirt is perfect to dress up or down. I love it in cream as a core piece and in hot colours to lift a monochrome palette.
Jigsaw is now only stocking the Jigsaw UK range and will be operating online here in Australia very soon. In the meantime, these boots are available in store in Sydney and Canberra. Wear these back with a cuffed or frayed hem pair of jeans.
These are a pretty way of wearing some runaround heels; they are very comfortable with a slightly rounded toe by Witchery. Wear these back with some 3/4 length jeans or a denim skirt.
Coated denim and biker details is a key trend this season - these Witchery jeans are a subtle take on this trend. The classic five pocket - skinny jean in dark indigo has a black coating to give a slight matt sheen. Wear them cuffed with a white pair of trainers and tee shirt or worn with heels, tank and the biker jacket for a dinner date.
