Gal clothes on the British Highstreet; River Island

OH GOD she's back with yet another post. RUN WITH FEAR, the appalling-spelling-girl returns

Yeah Hi guys, I'm on a blogging roll here. I went to London today to check out what was new in fashion land. I wasn't actually intending on doing a post like this but I walked into River Island and saw an adorable display with these items on it and i instantly thought GYARU and hauled them into the dressing room to take sneaky pictures of them and try them on.

Unfortunately they're not on the River Island site yet.

First was this ADORABLE cream plush zipped jumper with bronze sleeve and collar detail. I  know this kind of texture was really popular in gyaru clothing last Autumn/winter but I have never seen it used in any clothes in the UK up until now.


It was really soft and warm and really versatile with this seasons colours but I didn't really want to pay £39 for it -_- Christmas present, Mum??

and secondly; THIS. A brown and grey leopard print coat with pom poms and hood. It reminded me of the W♥C one except this one has buttons instead of peg fastens and lacks the ears but still, damn cute none the less!


I put together a few coordinates of the things I saw in store and stuff I saw on the site.

Co-ordinate one: the teddy ear muffs and fur bag were together on the display along with the plush zip jumper so they inspired me to make this cutesy co-ordinate with lots of fur and wool and.. well warm looking things.



The Oxford Street store had a much bigger selection of tall fur boots that aren't on their site yet and a much nicer version of those black fur boots in a brown but just pretend those shoes are brown ne?

Second Co-ordinate; for a more sexy style. If you don't feel daring enough to wear the suspender tights, oft for cute striped black ones (The last time I wore suspender tights, a man walked past me and said "HOW MUCH, love?!" ) haha

You're not going to get much warmth from this outfit in this cold season but who cares! Look good right?


Co-ordinate 3: I wanted to make something a little Mode/high fashion inspired. 
The top has amazing shoulder detail that you can't really see well here. It's got silver spike-like detail  that cover the tops of the shoulders.

and that's paired with these amazing diamante embellished leggings! Normally I hate leggings (don't get me started on plain black leggings aslkdjaskl-infinite rage-) but these are GORGEOUS. To top it off, a fur cuff, statement wedges and a plain studded bag.


and just another couple of things from Bershka that I thought were cute

Cute cute cute~

Hope you enjoyed the coordinates!
I had a lot of fun putting them together and looking for the things in store~
