Skulls and Leather

Outfit of the Day 

It has been a while since i share an outfit of the day and when i wore this last week i just had to grab some snaps.


I know the pictures are very dark sorry.
I wear a lot of black and seriously need to clean my mirrors 

My Make up for the day was pretty basic, 
if you would like to know the actual products let me know.


the breakdown of the outfit is: 

Boots - Duo Boots - Hartman Black Leather Knee High Boots

It is summer here but we had a little spell of cooler days so i was able to wear my new outfit.


This Sweater is seriously awesome. I am so in love with it.
It is super soft, fits my curves like a dream and has extra long sleeves with a little thumb hole.
I will be so getting another one of these as i am thinking it will wear it alot


 I had little difficulty getting a picture of the skirt on me 

This is an image of the skirt from City Chic.

I would like to note that their lovely model is very tall (178 cm)
So at my 169 cm height it sat very nicely around my knees


The material is not stiff at all and has a very nice weight and flow to it.
It fit really well and has a nice wide waist band = no digging in YAY


The cut outs are super cute and it does have a second black layer so no worries about flashing skin.


My kitty kat wanted to be in the picture too so kept photo bombing me 

The boots omg the boots..

So i have big calves ! it is a given, regardless of my weight i have always had bigger calves.
and when i have a size 7 (38) foot. it is pretty much impossible to find boots that fit.

Until i discovered DUO boots
(i may now have three pairs of boots from them)

Basically they do boots with Custom Calf width. So you pick your size and your calf width. 
SOOOO AWESOME

When they had a sale recently, i used it as a chance to grab a lovely pair of flat buckled knee high boots


 The ones i chose are the Hartman. A flat soled buckled knee high boot. They are a shorter knee high which worked perfectly with the look i wanted

It is leather outer and Fabric lined with a rubber sole and cushioned insole.

So so amazingly comfortable and fit perfectly. I am seriously in love with these boots



For anyone who had trouble with boots fitting there calves be they bigger or smaller, it is definitely worth giving DUO a look.

Do you have a favourite pair of boots??

Because kate said i should..

So today was one of those days where it was finally cold enough to wear my new boots. Thank god for Autumn. I am so not a summer person

My friend Kate said i should share my outfit for today with you all. 
So here i am :)

Be warned many bad selfies ahead..
(was to lazy to dig out my dslr)

Don't you just love a work elevator selfie.. hahaha


This is my outfit for the day
The breakdown is:
Cardigan: Target i think
Belt: Simple Skinny Tan belt that came with this jumper from ASOS
Tights: Basic Black Tights - target again i think
Boots: Duo Boots  - Marcelle Tan Nubuck 


The dress is super comfy and such soft material. It is a little shorter than i would usually wear but since i will mainly wear it with tights it is fine.
In this dress i got it in an 18. I could have gone with a 16 i think but i like having a little bit more room.
I would usually wear a belt so it fits into my waist a little better.
The collar and keyhole is so cute and such a nice little detail. 
Very work appropriate not showing too much chest. 
The sleeves are slightly puffed cap sleeves and actually fit my arms.

The boots are a god send....

For anyone with bigger calves and small feet. Duo Boots does custom calf width... YAY
I will be doing a post in the next day or so on Duo so keep your eyes peeled for all the details.

All i can say is HEAVEN. So comfy and they FIT  


So that was my outfit for the day..

What is your favourite boots combo outfit at the moment?
