SWEATSHIRTS AND SNAPBACKS FROM RACCOON BRAND

RCCN BRND Snapback, c/o Raccoon Brand - Same Here.

Human Hair Extensions - Wonderful Hair.

In recent months, I have become seriously fond of streetwear - I have been leaving my dresses and jumpsuits in the wardrobe, swaping them for faux leather trousers, sweatshirts and snapbacks. Maybe it is the cold (North East England sucks when it comes to the wind and rain combo) that has made me crave streetwear layers, but right now it's working for me. Maybe at 31, I am a starting to get a little old for streetwear, but I honestly don't care. Life is too short to wear and do things you think you are supposed to...

Faux Leather Biker, New Look - Same Here.
Faux Leather Trousers, H&M - Similar Here.
Satchel - Nica
Shoes, Asos - Similar Here.






One of my favorite streetwear labels, is the cheeky Raccoon Brand, for their mischevious raccoon prints, high quality and comfort. The sweatshirt has a cool unisex fit (I'm wearing an XS) and has a super soft fleecy inside, perfect for a damp day strolling through town. The snapback is also of pretty sick (street lingo alert) quality, with a durable stitched logo and adjustable strap. I decided to wear back to front as I did grow up in the nineties.




Does anyone think they might be incorporating some streetwear into their wardrobe in 2015? What do you think of Raccoon Brand's quirky style?

    You look so freakin' cute in that hat! I love your street style. I can't believe you're 31, I thought you were a few years younger than me! You're so darn youthful. ;)

      Thanks Tara, I have somehow managed to resist the aging process so far, one day I'm going to wake up a mess of wrinkles, I'm sure of it!

    Rockin' the raccoon as always hon! I love how you've added your own on-pointness to edge the the look up as always; your ASOS shoes are stunning and your pretty satchel gives off such a gorgeous pop of burnt orange. When I first discovered you were 31 I couldn't believe it! Still couldn't in a million years, you deffo look the same age as me! You wear whatever the hell you want, you're so right, not caring is the best way forward when it comes to fashion and styles <3
