The Fashion Faux Pas of Gabrielle An unconventional fashion blogger trying to find her place on the internet

Am I a typical fashion blogger? 

02/10/2017

I love blogging, sparking conversations about silly things I do and think about things like make up, life or fashion. However, I don’t see myself as a typical blogger – the theme on here isn’t blush pink, I don’t own anything in a marble effect and I cannot shoot a flatlay to save my life (these are only a select few reasons I don’t consider myself a typical blogger). 
I was scrolling through my emails and saw  one from Pinterest with some suggested pins when I saw one that sparked an idea for a blog post.

Do I have these 13 items that every fashion blogger has in their closet? Let’s find out!
✅ Ankle Boots – I love me a good ankle boot and these black leather ones from Ugg are my go to pair

✅ Black Pumps – agree these are a staple for everyone, regardless of whether you’re a blogger or what your style is


✅ Denim Jacket – well duh! 


✅ Leggings – who doesn’t own a pair of bloody leggings?! 


✅ Polished Handbag – not sure this qualifies as ‘polished’ but I think this is what it means? 

❌ Power Suit – now, I have got something of a suit, but not a matching set, just some navy trousers and a navy blazer I will pair for any formal work meetings
❌ Silk Camisole (although I’d love to find the perfect one!) 
✅ Skinny Jeans – because who doesn’t own a pair?! Btw, don’t I look sassy AF with my hair flick?! 

✅ Strappy Sandals – I haven’t got many shots of my strappy sandals this year because most of the summer I was pretty jaundiced and covered in scabs, but here’s one from a while back! 

✅ Vintage Denim – who doesn’t love a pair of vintage Levi shorts?! 

✅ Button down – I had to Google this and found out it was a shirt, of which I have plenty! I also felt a bit stupid having to Google this, but it must be an American term (yes, fully aware I’m American people)

✅ White tee – who in their right mind doesn’t have a white tee?! 

Conclusion
I own 11 of the 13 items on the list, so yes I am probably a typical basic bitch fashion blogger – but because I don’t have everything – I still believe I’m not your typical fashion blogger 😉

    Oooo, love your Ugg boots (is the leather as lovely as it looks?) and I really like the flats! You have some wonderful and classic elements in your wardrobe! xxx

Thought I’d make another appearance on here sinc Thought I’d make another appearance on here since it’s been over a year since my last post, so here’s one from my Tiktok #sustainableootd #ootd #vintedfinds
Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise birthday outing last night, although I’m definitely feeling it today! Love you both loads ❤️❤️
So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve been working and saving away with this gorgeous man to make sure that we could buy a house and we’ve only gone and done it! We’re now in the process of fixing it up and getting our bedroom ready to move in to, so hope we can get in next week! I’m going to be sharing the whole process on our Tiktok account which you can follow @thealbonrenovation - the first post on there is just a video showing the whole house as it was when we bought it on Friday (it’s changed a lot since then!) - so give us a follow it you love a bit of home renovation! 🥳🥳 #firsttimebuyers #newhouse
When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear ❄️ what a week it’s been! I’ve been shivering away, heating on full blast and my dressing gown wrapped around me as I work this week - I love the look of snow but hate the cold! Had a day of hypochondria where I had a cough and was convinced it was Covid - but turns out my husband knows me best and that it wasn’t. And that’s probably the most exciting bit of news I l have for you all! How are you all doing?!
Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time between posts as I have been in the last few months, so I think a couple of weeks is an improvement! On our way home from food shopping last week (highlight of the week!) we decided to stop by one of my favourite spots to take some outfit photos, where the majority of what I’m wearing is second hand (bag, jacket and jumper). I’m getting extremely stir crazy, but at the same time have turned into quite the hermit, I miss going out for lunch with Aaron, mooching around the charity shops and going out to do site visits for work - let’s hope this vaccine helps bring some normality!
And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to make myself feel like I was going somewhere tonight by putting a full face of makeup on, with the intention of sitting on the sofa sharing a bottle of Disaronno with Aaron to see the new year in! We might hit up the kitchen, the living room and Aaron suggested the bathroom but I wasn’t sure 😂 what have you got planned for tonight? And Happy New Year to everyone!
And that’s Christmas over for another year (alth And that’s Christmas over for another year (although let’s be honest, 2020 may as well not have happened!) and I just hope to god 2021 is a damn site better for everyone! Since I’ve been attempting to cut out purchasing brand new clothing all together, bar a few items such as underwear and pyjamas, I’m hoping once Hertfordshire is out of Tier 4 that I can head to the shops and do some serious secondhand shopping and use the vouchers I got to buy myself some new beauty bits. How was your quiet Christmas and have you got any beauty recommendations for me? #hertsbloggers #fashionbloggeruk #ukfashionblogger #ukstyleblogger #hertsbloggerlove #sustainablefashionblogger #secondhandfashionblogger #petitebloggeruk #petitefashionbloggeruk #outfitinspo #mylookoftheday #ootdshare #ukfashionblog #petitestyle #hertfordshirebloggers #funkyfashion #ukfashion #ootdinspo #canon700d #canon #amatuerphotography #aspiringfashionblogger #aspiringblogger
