The Style Bubble

Have you seen this summers must have? Its rattan bags/ wicker bags/ straw bags.. all of these are sweeping the high street and to be honest we just can't get enough. But do you want to blend in with the crowd OR get something super stylish and personalised? With CrossLow you can get exactly that. Why have a plain Rattan bag when you can go all out AND even have it monogramed.      If you are like me then the fact they monogram these bags means its already in my shopping basket and I must have it. They have several designs on their website and I decided to go for the stars in silver/ golds and pinks. Since having Aria I have been more interested in all things magical and pink. Therefore the pink was a natural choice and instead of going for the embroidery patched bags I went for glitter stars as I have decorated Arias bedroom in gold glitter stars and the bag design is just so pretty. There are all kinds of styles and colours to choose from. By the wa...

Do you ever pick up something just to see what it looks like in the mirror and then fall deeply madly in love? It tends to happen to me quite a lot but this time it was something I don't usually go for. This bag is very much a statement and I initially thought -Great for holiday/ possibly beach bag. I found it in Topshop in Westfield Stratford in their Skinny Dip section and as I had a Topshop voucher I couldn't resist. I love the fact the bag is a different tone in the light - predominately green with a hint of gold and blue - I call it my bag of dreams and I feel like the mermaids will be after me. Incase you didn't know as I tend to ramble on - I just love telling stories.. Anyway I have decided to use this bag for the WEEKEND - to be honest I cannot wait for the summer thats just silly it will be wasted!!   Its really hard to show the beauty of this bag but I can tell you it was a huge hit when I wore it because no joke 3 independent girls asked me w...

I have always been a huge fan of Longchamp over the years mainly because they keep true to their brand and produce classic, timeless bags of several shapes and sizes. They also release a more adventurous print every now and again to fit the season - I bought an amazing tiger print large Longchamp handbag several years ago in Nice, i still have it and it is stunning but it's not a bag I can use regularly - I like to save it and just use it now and again. Longchamp have a classic range that is timeless and my recent purchase wasn't a handbag instead I opted for a backpack - the Le Pliage in black. It's such a great invention! Can be folded into a tiny bag, great to take on vacations or used for weekends away/ shopping or even work..with these types of bags the options really are endless! At the moment every look is completed with a rucksack... These bags do come in other colours but I always steer towards black as I feel it goes with a lot of the clothes I own and...

One of my favourite shops has to be Zara and literally Everytime I go, there is always something lurking on the rails that catches my eye and screams buy me. Zara is currently full of embroidery, jewels, sequins and oversized and flamboyant dresses and shirts  reflecting designs from the likes of Dolce and Gabbana and Gucci's present collections. To cut a long story short I wanted it all BUT I am realistic and I just choose a few pieces that I am totally crazy about. This time it was THE handbag. I spotted it on a mannequin in the middle of the shop, I searched high and low and surprisingly I couldn't find it anywhere. You know that feeling when they don't have it and now you want it even more? I wanted the bag. I needed the bag.  A shop assistant directed me to the changing rooms where the most helpful girl was, I described the hand bag and she knew exactly what I was talking about and responded with the dreaded line "sorry we have sold out" I was gut...
