London Fashion Week- February 26th 2016


Guess what! I went to London Fashion Week (woo!). It was such an amazing experience and yes I did feel like Miranda Priestly sitting front row.Okay I'm done with making you feel jealous (I think). The show I was fortunate enough to see was the trend show. This featured all different designers including Chanel, Dior and so many more! The biggest problem of the day for me was what to wear, anyone that knows me can tell you that I will often plan my outfits and then end up wearing something completely different! What do you wear to one of the biggest fashion events in the year! I settled with a pair of jeans paired with my gorgeous Donna Karen trench coat.






There was some amazing brands featured at the event but my favourite was with out a doubt 'Never Fully Dressed'. The garments were made out of beautiful materials, it is located in Buckhurst Hill, but they do have an online shop. I'll definitely be going back next year.

Congrats Sam!- December 28th 2015

In my year nine days when I was obsessed with TOWIE you would rarely ever find me not in Brentwood, in around the stars shops. One of my faves Minnies, owned by Samantha Faiers and Billie Faiers. I met the girls a few times after stalking their twitters and constantly walking past the shop with my best friend (god how embarrassing!), and they are two of the nicest celebrities I've ever met! Listen to me acting like I'm the celebs bestie, clearly I am not and I haven't actually met that many celebs but out of the ones I have these two sisters were the nicest. ANYWAY getting back to it yesterday Sam gave birth to a little boy, yay! And I think you'll agree with me that the picture she posted to announce it was gorgeous. So I thought I'd do a fashion piece on some of the amazing clothes the girls have on their website!




I am in love with the playsuit as modelled by the shops very own Billie, it's the perfect outfit for a night out and with new years round the corner it's perfect! The glitter detail on the wrap front definitely adds glamour to the outfit, which means not too many accessories are needed. Just add a pair of simple heels and some gold hoops as Billie has done and your good to go. Or if your not a fan of the hoops (like me!) then silver diamond studs would look just as effective! 








Another one of my favourites from their collection is the gorgeous black and silver sparkling evening dress. Again this is perfect for New Years Eve. Although this is modelled on the very glowingly pregnant Sam this is NOT a maternity item and ranges from sizes 8-14! This longline dress is perfect for going out this winter. 



The site is not only for party clothes but causal everyday, shopping outfits too. This longline thick cardigan is lovely for this surprisingly warm December we having right now (if you live in London that is), I always find walking around in a coat in this weather gets me way too hot but this cardigan is the perfect solution and for when it does get more chilly wrap up in at home, work or college! Pair it with a gorgeous pair of over the knee boots and your sorted. Perfect winter outfit!

Over the Knee Boots- December 23rd 2015

Of all the things this season my favourite is definitely the Over the Knee Boot. I have worn mine so many times over this christmas period they are gorgeous! Mine are from River Island (pictured right), and they are also available in tan. They are £75 which put a big dent in my wages but they are so gorgeous how could I not? The one thing I may regret about buying these is that the heel on them is not the comfiest if you have been christmas shopping for 8 hours like I did, but learn from me girls and don't take the chance! 





If £75 is a bit too expensive these ones from New Look are just as nice! With a slightly chunkier heel these are only £44.99. The only drawback with these is they don't have a zip which could make it difficult to get them on and off again, so if you do get these let me know how you get on!





If you'd prefer a more expensive pair then these Carvela Black 'Pace' Over the Knee High Heel boots from Kurt Geiger. These little beauties are available in Debenhams and are now £119 in the sale! Reduced from £180. The Drawstring back on these are just gorgeous and can help it hold them in places if you've got a slimmer leg.

New York Fashion Week- SS16 Spring/Summer- 25th September 2015

Fashion season is upon us the time of fashion week and thick fashion magazines, beaming with SS16 Spring/Summer! Okay so I'm pretty sure we can agree that all of the shows at New York Fashion Week this year was amazing but the best one for me was clearly Marc Jacobs. If you haven't seen it then why not? It was certainly different then all the others as it was featured as a movie premiere! Now that to me is exciting and the clothes were amazing. I've heard they even gave out popcorn by bell boys (I know i'm jealous too!).



Seriously now the clothes showed lots of American themes (fitting with the old school cinema) with cowboy boots and bright colours. Spring/Summer always gets me excited because its full of bright colours, were if you're in England your surround by dark gloomy clouds and of course rain. These three are some of my favourite pieces from the collection.




PS- I'm very sorry my post for New York Fashion Week is so late!

Autumn/Winter 2015- Topshop- 6th September 2015

Okay so my actual first fashion post (about time, I know!), I'm no expert, so if anythings wrong I do apologise, it is my first go (so please be nice!). Its getting to that time again when we all head back to school/college or if your older then work! The summer is over and the temperature is slowly starting to drop, but seasons change are always good because yes you get to buy a whole new wardrobe! Or maybe update it with a few new pieces, as my boyfriend is always telling me I buy too many clothes, some people have a thing for bags or shoes mine is defiantly clothes. So when I walked into topshop it was like Christmas had come early, it is of course my favourite shop and there are so many items I just love. The face of the new collection is Gigi Hadid, one of my favourite models!

Daytime

Jersey Tank Top- £10
This top is great for layering up or as shown here great with jeans. It shows a very casual look and goes with pretty much everything.

MOM Jeans- £40
These jeans are my new favourite item, but it really sucks because they do not suit me at all (heart breaking, I know) but to everyone else, go and invest in a pair. Gone are the days of skinny jeans (okay not quite but still) you don't have to wriggle around trying to get into them, there so comfy!

Skinny Studded Leather Belt- £18
This belt goes really well with these MOM Jeans and is a must accessory for this season.

Leather Biker Jacket- £165
The leather Jack (as me and my best friend call it). Honestly one of my favourite items of clothing, I bought a similar one to this one three years ago and I still wear it today, its amazing. It will be your best friend in the autumn month and it goes with pretty much everything, so if you don't have one, then why not? go and get one!




Night time
Premium Tuxe Jacket- £75
Premium Tuxe Cigarette  Trousers- £50
This Jacket is perfect for autumn to wear to dress it down for work with a shirt underneath and flats or for a night out with heels and a clutch. Its smart and is different from the 'little black dress'.


These are my favourite looks from Toyshops Autumn/Winter Line, its affordable and looks amazing! Have a look on Topshop for the rest of the collection.
