Lookbook Collection: All Black Everything

LookBook is one of my favourite social media platforms for outfit inspiration. The website allows you to create and post your own collections to refer back to at any time. Whether you love bold patterns and sequins, or sport-luxe looks and vintage outfits, there's never a dull moment surfing through the creative and unusual looks.

I have recently created a number of collections on my profile and thought my 'All Black Everything' collection was worth a share. All Lookbook users are linked, so you can head over to their profiles to have a better look at any time. Enjoy!

Winter Basics - Posted by Holynights C

An amazing grunge look for the upcoming winter season. An oversized felt hat and Dr Martens are the greatest combination to get this look spot on. The faux leather duster coat adds contrast against the soft wool jumper and dark denim. The turn-up jeans add to the hipster style and to complete the look, dark black retro shades are the most stylish option.

Letter Salad - Posted By Jana Wind

This outfit has my name written all over it....literally. This amazing alphabet oversized jumper dress is a great piece to team with opaque tights and leather Chelsea boots. I love the dainty gold necklace detail and how the Bershka jumper dress blends comfort and style into one. Try wearing this little number with a cute white collar underneath to match the white alphabet stitching.

November - Posted by Jennifer Grace

This all black outfit is one for the brave and daring. Mixing both sports wear with evening wear, Jennifer Grace has created the look so well. A hooded cropped jacket is teamed with a pair of cropped black joggers and accessorised with a classy mock-croc clutch bag and a pair of barely there stilettos. To tone the outfit down a little, add a pair of rounded sunnies and stut the street with your hood up!

Bunny Ears - Posted by Cizzy Z

The beautiful Cizzy Z has created a wild, yet sophisticated look all in one. The statment bunny ears create a quirky, Alice In Wonderland style accompanied with a contrasting gold plated waist belt, which adds shape to the heavy bubble dress. Perfect!

Approximate Sunlight - Posted by Tiffany B

This amazing black jumpsuit is simple and effective. Available at Missguided, the smart jumpsuit is easily affordable and works wonders to dress up or down. Teaming the fauc leather gilet with silver detailing is a classic option that works every time. The mirrored aviator sunglasses finish the look perfectly for a rockstar effect.

October's Style Icon: Sean Miley Moore

If you're currently watching the latest X Factor shows, you'll notice that many of the new contestants have some incredible modern and up-to-date styles and looks. One in particular caught my eye. I found the amazing Sean Miley Moore an inspiring character and I absolutely love some of the outfits he has showcased to the nation during the competition.

The 24-year-old singer first took to the stage in a rather fetching black patent pencil skirt, which he wore with a sheer long-sleeved top, patent leather peak cap, daring gold hoops and a pair of boots and red berry lippy to complete the look.

In The Spotlight: Charlotte Simone

British based designer Charlotte Beecham founded Charlotte Simone in 2011.

Inspired by the effortless style of Parisian women and their ability to build an outfit around a single accessory, Charlotte sought to reinvent the everyday scarf. An accessory still left untapped! Aware of this gap in the market, Charlotte designed the unique 'fur hood', an original design from in-house that has become her trademark piece.

The fur hood is the ultimate winter accessory, fashioned by marrying the scarf and hood, it has become Charlotte.Simone's signature scarf.

Charlotte Simone aims to develop a variety of new shapes and textures with an ultimate focus on ‘reinventing the scarf’. The result is a multi functional collection comprised of fur, knits and woven fabrics.
