Hello!
For the next blog post in the 'How to Style' series, I have chosen to style a simple hoodie. This is a staycation edition as most of us are once again unable to go abroad on holiday this summer! This hoodie is from Wild Like Her and was gifted to me by the amazing owner Cathryn.
Wild Like Her is a brand that sells cosy and extremely well-made jumpers, hoodies and t-shirts and I was lucky enough to get my hand on one of the hoodies with the ‘note to self’ in mint green. The detailing in this hoodie is so unique and unlike any hoodie I’ve ever owned. Firstly, it is so fluffy and soft inside so is guaranteed to keep you warm. There are two extra pockets and a loop to attach your keys to... inside the main pocket! I have never seen that before but it makes so much sense! My favourite part of the hoodie is the small note that is on the left sleeve. It is such a great idea for when you are having a tough day.
So onto the styling...
1. Sporty Look
I got this hoodie in a size L which is so cozy and means it’s oversized and looks so perfect paired with a pair of cycling shorts. I'd wear this look when doing sports in the summer like a walk when there is a slight chill in the air or when leaving the gym. I've paired the outfit with a black cap to keep my hair out of my face and some white socks and shoes. I made sure the cap and shorts were the same colour and also chose to make my shoes and socks match the hoodie cords to tie the look together. I also wanted the hoodie to be the main focus so only chose black and white accessories.
2. Beach Days Look
As many of us are having stay-cations this year, this hoodie is perfect for a British beach day. Whether you are taking a walk along the beach or staying the whole day and going for a dip, this hoodie is a must have. I feel like a surfer wearing this on the beach. For the first beach look I thought about what I'd wear on a beach walk. I chose simple denim shorts and my new platform flip flops. This such an easy look but so perfect for a windy summer! The second look is even more simple with just a swimming costume/bikini underneath and the same flip flops.
3. Market Shopping
The summer weather is so unpredictable in Britain so this is a look perfect for when the sky gets a bit overcast. I envisioned these looks on a family holiday when you pop to the local famers market or have a mooch around the local shops. I am currently obsessed with this hat given to me by my Grandparents and have been wearing it a lot! It's the perfect summer hat and thankfully fits me like a glove. My straight leg jeans and Chanel dupe sandals look super cute and add the summer elements. This bag is a new one for my collection from the latest Zara sale for £5.99! The colour looks perfect with the jumper as they are the same shade of green.
4. Coffee Run Outfit
I have worn this outfit plenty of times recently on my coffee runs as it is so comfy and easy but still looks put together and like an effort has been made when choosing the outfit. I recently have enjoyed wearing simple black leggings, white socks and chunky trainers as it gives a sporty but chic look. This hoodie adds a pop of colour to a dark outfit and the cap not only hides my hair but it ties in the black in the outfit. This is an everyday look and if you add an oversized blazer or trench over the top, it would look so trendy for the Autumn.
5. Lunch Look
My final look is a summer lunch outfit. I chose my green studded flats from ASOS for this look as the green went really nicely with the green from the hoodie. I decided on my black midi dress from H&M which has smocking on the top half and then a floaty skirt which comes down to my shins. Like I said previously, this jumper is perfect in summer for when the sky gets a bit overcast or we get some horrible rain if the temperature still stays above 15 degrees.
So there they are! My summer hoodie outfits with the
Wild Like Her mint green hoodie with the note to self. This hoodie is honestly unlike any I have ever owned. It has been hugely popular among my sisters and mum and we think it is so worth the money.
Wild Like Her is a small business that has just celebrated their 1 year anniversary and I just know with jumpers like these, they are going to do incredibly well... so I would get your hands on them soon!
