Here's one for the diamonds in the dark, all the people in the park

(Jumper & Trousers:C/O Next, Shoes: C/O Bertie, Bag: Mybag.com)
It seemed the absence of printed trousers on my blog was only a short stint. After the awesome Next Lock In event a couple of weeks ago, I spotted 'those trousers from the advert' and completely fell in love. The perfect 'all rounder trouser'- not only are they relatively thick and comfortable, they have an awesome print (kind of Prada esque if you're trendy like that) and look cool with a huge amount of my wardrobe (chuky jumpers, white shirts with cool collar necklaces, band tee's and the list goes on...). I would say I was pleasantly surprised by Next's offerings of late- but to be completely honest I always am (ever since looking at the catalogue lovingly and cutting it out for collages when I was about 8). They've had some super cool things in lately consisting of burgundy leather-look skirts, Cher from Clueless tartan, novelty festive jumpers- and fail safe basics like this jumper- Next, I salute you.

Additionally, I also teamed it with these sassy, and kind of regal patent loafers from Bertie! They're the perfect match to well...everything burgundy I own- although I'm still a little nervous about breaking them in #widefeetprobs- fingers and toes crossed!
