Whistles Maria Slim Textured Top

I am now the proud owner of a Whistles jumper and I can’t retain my excitement as this is my first ever Whistles purchase! The jumper in question, the Maria Slim Textured Top, was part of the A/W 13 collection and I managed to find it in the sale for £45.

Despite it being a slim fit top, I picked it up in a bigger size as I wanted it to be a little bit baggy. The sports luxe feel of it makes it perfect for a little casual chic. I've been pairing it with a pair of rather thick black leggings or a pair of simple jeans and a slight heel.

I think this will be the start of a new addiction. Someone restrain me before I head to Whistles. You can still get your hands on the Maria Slim Textured Top (here) at John Lewis, hurry before they all go!

I have had a love-love relationship with Primark from a young age. It was the only place I would go to spend my pocket money. Since then, Primark have upped their prices, but I’m not one to shy away from picking up a thing or two.

When I visit their stores I always head straight to jewellery section in hopes that I might snap up a few gems, and Primark seem to be supplying them. During the colder months I spend the majority of my time lounging about in woolly jumpers and in order to accessorize these jumpers I pair them with statement necklaces. And this year I've found and fallen for the above.

1. The first is a long line arrow piece which can be mixed and matched to accompany any outfit. It’s effortless and beams ‘I didn't try too hard’.
2. The second is a cream necklace which I have been wearing to accompany my white, cream or beige knits. This has helped to add a little sophistication to my plain jumpers.
3. The third is the chunkiest of the mix. I will be wearing this in the evenings to add an element of glamour to my outfits. Just in time for those Christmas parties!
