Outfit – Hello Autumn

Posted on by under Fashion, New in my Closet, Outfit Inspiration

IMG_1946Hello Autumn. My precious. My favourite season of the year.

Yesterday I said that I’d wear my new boots for you; what do you think? I’m so in love with them and, bonus, the heel is one I could easily spend the whole day in. I’ve paired them with my new Angora jumper which is a slight pain in the bum. It sheds like crazy! I’m looking for a solution so if any of you know how to stop fluffy jumpers from shedding, please share! Also, there’s nothing like a couple of gold accessories to add a little bit of glitz and glamour :)

Me and El went shopping this weekend. As usual, we had a lovely time. I also found a gorgeous pair of oversized boots in H&M. I’m in love! Here’s a little sneak peak of what they look like. I know I know, I shouldn’t tease you. I promise I’ll pair them with an outfit and shoot some photos for you later though.

Outfit – Silver Details

This is what I wore yesterday. A casual tee, dressed up with a fitted midi and a pair of heels. And also my French Connection ‘Let It Be Rock’ studded leather coat. You might remember me lusting over it last year…!

IMG_1488I love the detail on the arms. I can’t lie; it’s quite heavy to wear. But it does the trick when I want to spruce up a simple outfit.

Sandre Aztec Sequin Mini DressI’m in love with this Sandre Aztec Sequin Mini Dress. I must admit, I’ve never purchased anything from Missguided before but I can’t wait to have this piece in my wardrobe. I’d pair this with minimalistic, strappy white sandals though. Perhaps these River Island ‘Barely There’ beauties?

Zara Autumn / Winter 2013

Posted on by under Fashion

With an Autumn / Winter look-book this strong, only Zara could get me revved up for the arrival of all things cold. Hello crisp cuts, winter florals and rich tones. It looks like navy is going to be the colour of the season too. No complaints there.

This Week: Spot On – Jennifer Lawrence

Posted on by under Fashion News!, Look of the Week

If there was an award for one red carpet regular who can pull off any look, the award would have to go to Jennifer Lawrence. Honestly, in my opinion, this girl can do no wrong. Every look she tries to achieve she gets spot on.

jennifer-lawrence-2Two weeks ago, at the Santa Barbara Film Festival, Jennifer wore this sterling jumpsuit by Stella McCartney. Fitted at the waist with tailored, boy-fit trousers, matched with sexy, black, stiletto heels: this outfit embodies masculine femininity perfectly. Likewise however, on Sunday, Lawrence turned a complete 360 degrees and indulged in her innocent, youthful side at the BAFTA’s. Wearing a pretty in pink Dior Haute Couture gown hollywoods new favourite looked nothing short of a dream. Breath-taking…

I wish I was wearing this little combo today. I love the waterfall cardigan. It’s totally perfect for wrapping it around yourself in this cold weather. Leather trousers have always been a must, especially loose fitted ones which are perfect for both comfort and style. And Kitty Flats, need I say any more?

This Week: Spot On – Emma Stone

Posted on by under Look of the Week

This week, we have to award our ‘Spot On’ title to the beautiful Emma Stone. From Elle to Vogue covers, Hollywood’s newest sweetheart seems to be everywhere at the moment; which comes unsurprising when she looks as stunning as she did, sitting in the front row of Miu Miu’s SS13 show at Paris Fashion Week. Pairing a couture prom dress with red lipstick, cherry coloured heels, soft curls and, of course, a Miu Miu printed handbag, Emma Stone raised the bar on ‘Parisian chic’. Simple yet effective, Stone looked more than superbad!

Chanel beach bag, anyone?

Posted on by under Fashion, Fashion News!

We have all been watching the coverage in Paris fashion week, patiently waiting for industry’s big guns to show us what to expect in Spring Summer 2013. When Chanel presented their collection, there was one accessory that got everyone buzzing. The hula hoop Chanel quilted bag!I must say it still manages to hold that mesmerising appeal, but not sure how it will work with commuters packed train in the mornings! After lots of speculation, we finally got to hear the idea behind it from Karl Lagerfeld himself. Speaking to Telegraph newspaper, Karl said “It’s for the beach, You need space for the beach towel. And then you can put it into the sand and hang things on it.”

Ah, that explains it!
