Zara Leather City Bag Comparison

 

Hey Guys

 

So I have been seeing a few pictures on instagram of the Zara ' Crocodile Pattern Leather City Bag With Chain' which is absolutely gorgeous but for £109.00 *takes a breather* I think its super super expensive.

 

But I found a great bag which is kind of the same in a way with just a few differences for a much cheaper and affordable price. This particular bag below is from H&M and only £19.99.

Pictures Taken By Me

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All Black: Zara                                                    Monochrome:H&M

 

Similarities

-Shape

-Texture/Pattern

-Chain pattern

 

Difference

-Texture/Pattern Size

-Colour

-Chain Colour

-Price

-Zara bag seems to have a gloss, H&M is matt

-Zara Is probably better quality of leather but H&M bag is Firm and Solid

 

 

(In terms of size not too sure as I haven't physically seen the Zara bag which could be a big difference)

 

If you do like the Zara bag but do think it's quite expensive like me I would go for the H&M version as there's not a super difference between the both, have some similarities and is super affordable and to me that tad bit more stylish as it has that monochrome feel to it.

 

I love the Zara bag to death but the H&M version as I call it price obviously won me over. If the Zara price was the same as H&M or a tad bit more expensive, which one would I get? Would probably get both haha just because why not haha!!

 

It really depends on your preference

 

I purchased the H&M bag about a week ago at the Stratford Westfield branch...just a few was left and still some left so if you want it go grab it ASAP or try other branches or order from online

 

Hoped this has helped

Which do you prefer and is your favriote, comment below?

OOTD Detail

 

Hope everyones good :)

 

Here's a quick outfit of the day detail. Sometimes I can't get someone to take a full outfit picture of me so I love to take these sort of small but detailed outfit pictures, mostly of shoe, accessories and small details like that which can still give someone an idea of the outfit and hopefully some inspiration too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On this day I went for quite a simple monochrome look, a white v basic tshirt, black highwaisted jeggings, monochrome pair of shoes and a black leather jacket but brightened it up and made a statement with my kente tote bag which I got from Ghana when I was back there in January. I thought the monochrome look would perfectly complement the bright colours of the kente colour and as the outfit colour was plain the print of the bag really brought the look together and made a slight statement.

I tend to sometimes go for super plain clothing and statement accessories weather its jewellery, shoes, bag.

 

Leather Jacket: Primark

Highwaisted Joni Jeggings: Topshop

White Basic V Necked Tshirt: H&M

Shoes: H&M

Bag: Ghana (oxford street, osu)

CURRENT FAVRIOTE JACKET

Hey Everyone! :)

I really hope everyones all good and having a great start to the weekend :)

If you follow me on instagram (Jfashiionadore or theultimatestyle) you would have seen that I have posted up a picture of what I call my current favriote jacket. When I saw this jacket I immediately fell in love with it and also with the price. With these kind of blazer jackets they are quite pricey mainly anything from £50.00 but this jacket was ONLY £34.99 from H&M. The colour is lush....this pastel pink literally will go with almost anything and it is super comfortable too. I got 2 sizes up as this item is more of a blazer but I wanted that oversized jacket look which was so trendy a few months ago and sort of still is now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I styled it here really simply as I wanted the focus to just be on the jacket so I went with an all black look with the pink jacket and hints of brown with my accessories.

 

I might just do a how to style 'My current favriote jacket' as a treat if you would like to see that please do comment below.

 

Hope you like the outfit and the jacket. Will be showing it off more on my instagram and youtube channel which I get back to God willing next week.

 

UPDATE

Will be getting back to making YouTube videos from next (as I couldn't do so this week) so do start to subscribe to my channel

 

Bare with me with my 2nd post about my wardrobe filtering...haven't had the time to start clearing things up but will be doing so in the next few weeks. Currently have a lot of designing to do :)

 

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!!

Balmain Perfection

 

Heys Guys

Hope everyone is doing good

It is finally the weeeekendddddd!!! :D

 

So it is currently Paris Fashion Week and Yesterday was when Balmain showcased his glorious collection. This is what I call 'The Balmain Perfection'. Seeing this yesterday literally made my day. He yet again came out with a bang (when doesn't he...goshh). This collection I must say is one of my favourites. This collection to me had a little bit of everything, it had a mix of monochrome prints, military edge, bold colours and mixed media of materials from fur to leather. OH and of course what is Balmain without immense detail. A lot was going on within this collection yet is was clear, consistent and stayed ture to the Balmain style.

 

Balmain is one designer I look up to as an upcoming designer and find inspiration from. I love how he stays true to his style and can immediately tell a Balmain design from a far and his attention to detail (total breath taking). I really do hope to reach is standards some day as a designer

 

Above are some of my favourite designs, looks and details

 

what do you think of this collection??

 

P.S Wardrobe Filtering Part 2 is coming soon, just been a little busy this week to actually start my filtering process but will do so God willing from next week..so stay tuned. In the mean time check out the first post wardrobe filtering

Throwback Thursday: African Print Maxi

Hey Guys

Its Nearly The Weekend....wooohoooo  :)

 

So before I done the 2nd posts about my wardrobe filtering (make sure you check out the first one) I wanted to quickly throw in a throwback featuring my African print maxi I made. Here are two ways I styled them at different times and I wanted to share them with you. Same colour palette just small changes. The smallest changes makes the biggest difference.

 

Which one is your favorite???

 

I must say mine is the one with the skirt knotted..a little more creative I think :)

WARDROBE FILTERING: WHY

 

Hello Everyone

 

Hope everyone's good and having a good week so far where ever you are.

Here in UK we are experiencing terrible weather.. rainy one time, sunshine the other, windy through out *sigh*

 

On a good note I want to share with you guys about my wardrobe filtering. Literally last week I was going through my wardrobe to find something to wear and for some odd reason I just wasn't feeling nothing in there and I have been feeling like this for some time, I have also been wanting to do a wardrobe clear out a for a long time but haven't had the time to get round to it so I thought this is the right time to do so.

 

There was a point in my life (Uni time) when I went crazy with shopping (obviously because of student loan, haha don't we all). Thinking back now I bought things mainly because I had the money and that they where cheap (mostly Primark, vintage stores and clear out events). So because of this my wardrobe to me now is full of rubbish (well 80%). So the only thing I can and will do is filter out my wardrobe

Possible Reasons for wardrobe filtering/detoxing/clearing

 

-You need  new clothes

-Want to change your style

-Want a more neater, tidy and co ordinated wardrobe

-You want to give to charity

-Change in body size

-Want to make some money

-Want to have an idea of exactly what you have in your wardrobe

 

Here is just a very few out of many reasons why you might want to clear out your wardrobe and most of them are my reasons

 

To me, knowing why you want filter out your wardrobe in the first place will help you during the clear our (i.e deciding on exactly whats going out and where) and after (i.e finding out if you need new clothes or your fine with what you have at the moment).

 

In my next post I'm going to be telling you and giving tips on how you and I can go about filtering(just like that word better haha by the way :) ) our wardrobe so STAY TUNED!!!

 

what other reasons might you want to filter your wardrobe????? remind me :)
