It's that time of year again... Christmas & New Year is filled with family gatherings, work parties and going out on the town. When it comes to figuring out what to wear to these events it can be incredibly challenging. Here are just a few outfits to inspire.

Very have some great outfit ideas in their A/W '14 lookbook to help you along the way and they can all be ordered straight from their site it couldn't be easier.

For those tomboys out there you can't go wrong with a fitted suit.

Metallics are perfect for New Years Parties.

Go edgy with a faux leather dress.

Or for a more family appropriate outfit maybe this will give you some inspiration.

THE FASHION POST | MINI SUMMER WISHLIST

This post is an entry to a competition held by Excel Clothing in conjunction with The Blogger Programme to win £500 to spend at their online store.

For me most of the time I wear quite monochromatic colours and a lot of black but when it's summertime I do wear slightly brighter colours like blue which is the focus of my mini summer wishlist.

I love the camera motifs on the dress.

Most of the time I am wearing a collared shirt if I'm in a skirt or trousers this one is quite unique.

I've been eyeing up Michael Kors bags for a while but they're slightly out of my current price range.

1. Sugarhill Boutique Ching Ching Skater Dress in Green. x

2. French Connection Holiday Block Classic Shirt in Yellow. x

3. Michael Kors Hamilton Large East West Satchel in Navy. x

If you want to enter the competition too go to this link here to see the rules and how to enter.

I'll be making another wishlist with no restrictions on brands and not as a competition entry soon.

THE FASHION POST | JULY WISHLIST

I love tea dresses but even though I tend to go for dark colours I absolutely love this dress. 

You can get it here.

For me I tend to wear boots regardless of weather I have so many black ankle boots already but I have been lusting after these for weeks now. You can find them here

I have been looking for a good faux leather skirt for ages and I am definitely buying this when I go on another shopping spree. You can find this here.

My designer pick in my wishlist this month is this 3.1 Philip Lim leather satchel. At nearly £1000 it's out of my price range but a girl can dream. You can find this here.

What is on your July Wishlist?

Note: Most of the clothing in this post are in the petite ranges.

THE FASHION POST | WIMBLEDON FASHION INSPIRATION

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

So the Wimbledon season is over and I am very happy that Andy Murray was Men's Singles Champion, incredibly proud to be British at the moment. We've had a sudden heatwave in Britain and I am making the most of the sun. I was a little inspired by the tennis and summer so thought I would put a little outfit together.

I love this white sundress it has flowers in it's embroidery and is incredibly feminine which is somewhat different to the usual clothes I would wear you can find this here

I would pair it with this straw boater hat to give my outfit a classic summer look. You can find this here.

Because I can't resist a minimalist pair of high heels I would finish the look with these ASOS Hoxton's (which are very similar to some Zara heels I've been lusting after) you can find these here

What would you wear to Wimbledon if you had the opportunity to go?
