What we thought would be a small trend back last year has surprised us all and stayed bang on trend, right up to today. Yes, the iconic Gucci loafers, the canvas stripe and the eclectic vintage inspired blouses are still hot topic and spotted on almost every street style pic. But what happens when you love Gucci but loathe the price?

Gucci Inspired Top

As you’ll have seen from my IG you know I’m loving jeans right now. So I wanted a casual tee for a more relaxed vibe. I’m loving this soft cream knit from River Island with it’s black and white stripe, the perfect nod to Gucci without being Gucci. For just 24 quid it doesn’t break the bank leaving me with more cash to splash on going out and actually wearing it!

I wore mine with this Bell and Fox red ampersand clutch, some white heels and my favourite new bleach wash Topshop cropped jeans. I updated the look with these gorgeous tortoise shell extreme cat eye glasses from Pretty Little Thing.

Also looks great paired with these Gucci inspired loafers…
