Lunch meeting

Bag - Chanel dupe from JJ market
---------------------------------------------------------
So yesterday I put across a tweet asking what you guys would like me to style and one of the suggestions was 'what to wear to a lunch meeting'.
When dressing for a lunch meeting, I always make it a bit smart but keep in the key element of comfort as I'll be travelling into London normally.
I opted for this chunky knit, you can opt for any colour but I'd stick to a basic and maybe a plain one as you wouldn't want to arrive too over the top. I also decided to stick with some cotton peg leg pants. These are from ASOS and have lasted me for ages. You can also wear them with baggy tees and slip ons on a more casual day.
I wanted to add some height so added my most comfiest pair of heels from UO, I know these are sold out now but anything with chunky, low heel is a winner. or you maybe even prefer boots! To top everything off, I kept my make up minimal but went for a slightly darker colour on my lips, brushed out my hair a bit and threw on a classic decent sized bag.
The key 3 points for dressing for a lunch meeting is to keep it minimal, clean and basic. At the end of the day, it is a meeting and you do want to show up showcasing your personal style but just remember not to over do it.

Firstly, Happy New Year everyone! I hope you guys celebrated it well and welcome to 2015!
I wanted to share with you guys a pair of kick ass boots I was gifted from DANIEL FOOTWEAR. I can't believe how nice these babies are and they remind me so much of the Gucci ones! Thank you so much to the guys at Daniel footwear!
Since the boots are really busy, I decided to pair it with some basic black skinnies and a plain grey sweater. Not just a boring one though, I opted for one thats ribbed and off the shoulder which made the outfit a little bit more feminine. To be honest. I would wear this to a dinner date or out and about strolling in the park (if you pair a camel coat over the top).
I really wanted to start off the year with a simple but chic outfit and this just turned out to be the perfect answer! Let me know how you would style the boots differently or if you would wear this outfit!
LAST POST OF THE YEAR

--------------------------------------
I wanted to end this years post with a forever favourite piece of mine, the camel coat. I bagged this beauty the beginning of the year I think from ASOS and I have worn it to death. My love for this colour has grown more and more and I can't count how many clothing items I have that are in camel.
I decided to pair this with a darker shade for a more evening outfit. I went for dinner and wanted something comfortable, warm and cosy so this wool dress from the Topshop boutique was perfect! I also featured it here in my latest lookbook. Threw on my trust Magnum boots from Topshop also and my favourite bag, the Wang! Oh and to tie it all of my chunky silver necklace.
I love how simple this outfit is and I love how it ties my year up all nicely. It's been a crazy one but been full of amazing opportunities and events. Like adding Dexter into our family and my trip out to LA. Oh, and how could I forget the amazing people I've met along the way and worked with. I really am so thankful and grateful for everything little thing and I can't wait to continue this into the next year.
I also want to say thank you so so much for following my journey and outfit documentations to see how my style transforms. Also to those who keep up with my youtube channel as well and my instagram. I've reached my goals this year and can't wait to each even better and bigger things in the next! I know some of you guys have already just celebrated the New Year so I hope you entered it with some champaign and good company. For the rest who are still waiting for that clock to hit midnight, have a safe night guys and look after yourself! See you in the new year and enjoy your night!
Love,
Bee, Oli & Dexter

Tweed set
-------------------------------
Firstly, I know the photos aren't that great but it's what I could do best with the lighting. The tweed set is actually more amazing in real life!
I actually bagged this set in the ZARA sale via the trusty app and then went into the store on boxing day (which wasn't as busy as I thought) and picked up this beautiful bag I saw on Amy's video! I'm so in love with it and it went down to £30! How amazing is that? There's also a beige looking one, which I might get as well if it's still there in the store. Got to really watch my spending as I just booked mine & Oli's trip to Thailand in May! Ahhhh I'm super excited!
Anyways, back onto this outfit, I just love the texture of the set and it really makes the outfit look really expensive. I love how it's joggers too so it's super comfy! I just paired it with my white show courts from Lacoste as I think it just cleans it up really well and my wool coat from COS. Sticking with the simple colour palette.
S U I T U P!

This outfit was one out of 4 that was featured in my latest look book video in collaboration with Topshop! If you haven't seen it then take a look here.
I love pairing this suit with a simple bralet, it makes it super chic and effortless. Wearing a minimal look for NYE is perfect for me as I don't like to dress up as much or pull together loads of sequins and faux fur. I wanted to keep it true to my personal style as possible to still create something fun.
Let me know what you think of this outfit below and if you would rock this on NYE!
