Sunny days in Winter

Hi guys! Spring is coming soon. At least that's what it feels like (sometimes).

Yesterday was a perfect sunny day out. Temperature went up to above 10 degrees! I figured what better day to finally bring my Checked Coat out.

I paired it up with my grey ASOS crop top and my top shop white skinnies. Also, say hello to my Timberland booties! Their first ever feature on WanderWithMe! They were recent January buys and I never regretted spending a bit on them (although they were already on sale hehe ). They're super comfy to walk in and very versatile too! I can wear this out and wear them formally as well.

I finished my look with simple make up and my felt ear hat!

This is a super fun outfit to go out in. Wearable in chilly but sunny weather. Although the coat has "fake" pockets which is the biggest downside of this coat, I still have a soft spot for them. I bought them in a size M so I could wrap myself in it when the cold wind blows. And also preferred them to be a bit bigger and not too tight.

I've always wanted a long coat and this was on sale on Zara. The print is bold and colourful and I needed something fun in my closet! They were just the ones for me.

Long coats are great statement pieces and add a great classy finish to any look. You can wear simple sweaters, tees and crops and just plain jeans and still come out looking bold and chic.

By the way guys if you hadn't notice, I had a hair cut :D

Hope you like this OOTD!

Stay warm and smile always

Taylor Swift RED Tour

Hi guys! Earlier this week, I had the craziest Monday in the history of my life (so far). I woke up at 7am to pick up my train tickets, met Haziq to give him his and then straight to the Science department to prep for my labs at 11. Got in and did a frog dissection on an already dead frog. Experience it beating 5 hours after time of death. Z picked me up on his KTM and caught my train to London. From there on, it was a journey to Taylor Swift's RED tour. Taylor was amazing, beautiful and she was mesmerising. Here's a summarised video of the concert. 

Here's for you Santi, Lily & Rashah. Wished you were there with me.

What's my favourite part of the concert? Just like for every concert I go to, it'll always be the choir of crowds singing along! Hope you enjoyed the video everyone! Before I end this post I'd like to say thanks to some special friends of mine.

Mu'izz, Me & Tiffany

Thank you

#followmeto Paris

For my 20th Birthday on January 1st, 2014, I packed my bags and brought along with me three special people, Zhaf, Naf and Nurun. We caught a coach to Paris on December 30th and arrived in Paris the next day. Spent new years eve fine dining near the Eiffel tower and the rest of the night filled with hot chocolate and cold selfies! Me and Zhaf had our own take of the #followmeto series by Murad Osman and his girlfriend as well! Here's a short clip of the places we went to (we squeezed in as much as we can in a day) and I hope you like it!

Island of Eternal Spring

Hi everyone! I have just completed organising a big event with friends and I felt like blogging would be a super therapeutic. I haven't been here for a long time. Since I finally have some time for myself today, I thought I'd write up something for you guys!

Last winter holidays, I went to the Island of Eternal Spring also known as Tenerife! It was beautiful and even though the storm held us back for a couple of days, we managed to have a wonderful time visiting animal reserves and the beach. I've uploaded a video before and today I'll be sharing you some of my OOTDs during the trip. 

I'm wearing a grey coloured 90s crop top under a blanket wrap with a maxi skirt and of course my K-Styleme booties. 

The weather in Tenerife would be similar to Spring in the UK but much more sun and less rain. We got caught in a storm, which was rare to the area (we're just unlucky like that haha). 

This was a comfy outfit, super lovely to wear on strolls around town except for the long ass  maxi skirt, I am not tall enough for the length and it was quite draggy. Note to self: either find higher platforms or find petite maxis.

Here I'm wearing a sundress from ASOS and my felt ears bowler hat also from ASOS. 

I wore this outfit when we went to an animal reserve at Loro Parque. My blanket wrap kept me warm when the winds get chilly and the dress was perfect when the day grew sunny. 

The beach was just 3 minutes walk away from Loro Parque and this outfit was just perfect for both places! 

 Lastly, over here I'm wearing a white vest under a black jumpsuit. The stormy clouds went away and the sun was bright and lovely. Everybody was outside and the beach was filled with wind surfers and sun bathers although, I was packed and ready to take a flight back to wintery Coventry.

This is a perfect outfit to travel with. The Jumpsuit is thick enough to keep warm in the plane and comfy enough to sleep cozily on a tiring flight. My favourite bit is the zip pocket on the chest. Where I kept my passport and my boarding pass handy! I didn't have to scramble my purse for all the necessities they're right there on my chest!

Of course, I brought my handy blanket cardi as a blanket this time for the flight.

These are just some outfit ideas for travelling to places with warm and cool weather. It's always best to travel light. Picking the right pieces is crucial since I had a 5kg limit. Over packing was not an option. Hope this gives you some travel OOTD inspiration! 

Thanks for reading. Love,

Ainul xx
