Tartan Takeover

Since returning from my travels we have had some beautiful weather here in England, but after moving to London a week ago (so exciting!), the rain has started to creep back in to our British Summer and while some people are probably rather upset about the prospect of colder weather, it is making me seriously excited about my winter wardrobe.

With the monochrome trend set to carry on into Autumn/Winter, then to take your wardrobe into next season all you need to add is some tartan, which is going to be huge when September rolls round. Tartan is one of my favourite prints, so I am really glad to see it back in the shops!

Tartan takeover with two of my favourite Scots!

Here is my pick of the best tartan and monochrome pieces available online and on the high street right now:


From L-R:

1. MeeMee Oblong Monochrome Skirt £20 - I love the hemline on this skirt and at £20 it's a bargain!
2. Zara Checkered Skinny Trousers With Zip £39.99 - Great for the office or on a night out.
3. Fashion Union White Diamond Print Midi Dress £18 - Love the wet-look sleeves on this midi dress.
4. MeeMee Sheer Check It Shirt £18
5. GoGo Philip Heavy Linked Gold Plated Classic Bracelet £15 - This is a great piece of statement jewellery as it's so chunky and would work well with both tartan and monochrome styles.
6. Cambridge Satchel Company Exclusive to Asos 11" Tartan Pocket Leather Satchel £115

Until next time .... x
