The Style Bubble

 Pom Pom heels have to be the best invention in recent years. After having my baby girl I have had to have a revamp of my wardrobe and update my style. I found I was having a slight identity crisis.. and wanted to be more fun!! I was casually shopping in Topshop whilst on the phone and suddenly these pom pom heels caught my eye! These are the epitome of FUN! gorgeous dusky pink and large pom poms. Love Love LOVE!! These are the high-streets answer to the famous Aquazzura powder puff heels! I absolutely love finding dupes and this one I want to share with as many people as possible. Aquazzura heels can set you back around £500 where these are just £39!! I decided to let my imagination run wild with my recent outfit... I wore the pom pom shoes with a floral print dress and a dusky pink faux fur bag also from Topshop. I haven't felt this way about a style I have created since before I was pregnant! for once I felt great! Not only did I have the best dupes ...

Dungarees - you either love them or you hate them. You can look like the coolest person about or a 5 year old and I'm hoping I'm more the coolest person about but I will let you decide. I was out shopping with friend and I was explaining to her that I wasn't feeling comfortable with my style at the moment (I blame the post pregnancy body) and we were having a mooch in Topshop when I laid eyes on these dungarees.. I only tried them on to just try "something different" AND well I ended up loving the style! I tried/bought a size bigger than I am as I wanted the dungarees to be baggy as I felt more comfortable that way.. When I bought the dungarees I had to purchase the top I tried it on with it as I felt it really completed the look. Its also from Topshop and I loved the fact it morphed a masculine style outfit into something a little more girly as the top was cropped and has puffed sleeves. Dugarees look awesome with flatforms (as pictur...

At the moment all things floral are IN. I repeat IN. Which means of course I need to get my grubby mitts on this trend. Why? High end designers like Gucci and Erdem are currently floral print mad, the busier the better and I am all for this look. Im literally one of those people that either like my look very plain and stylish or totally out there.. slightly odd I know but I think the totally out there style is me subconsciously rebelling. The Floral Bag: Recently I was lucky enough to receive two bags from Krisp Clothing and now I feel set for this trend. One being a light pink floral designed cross body bag and one being a predominately white floral "embroidery effect" tote.   Both bags beautiful in their own right. Floral Print Small Cross Body bag: These bags are perfect for summer, they are so handy! Great for sight seeing abroad, hectic London life or being mum! As a new mum I find a cross body bag is perfect to keep your purse/ phone/ keys and a lip...

Those that follow me on Instagram/ Twitter will know I have recently had a little baby girl... therefore Im still carrying baby weight! I'm still buying all things comfy right now.. and after celebrating 3 family birthdays in January (including my own) and consuming copious amounts of cake I can't even begin to dream of wearing jeans.. so on the hunt I went this week for a pair of new leggings... I bought two pairs from different shops and they were either way too tight and thin or just saggy and thin! I was going to give up hope when I came across these beauties from River Island. They are thicker than your regular leggings and they have gold details.. I just love gold. The gold details are the holes for the lace up bottoms..so you've guessed it, they have another one of my favourite features - bows!! Of course this style of legging comes with a higher price tag of £25 BUT they are so worth it! why? Because they almost act like a pair of your favourite je...

At this time of year its perfect to get out your faux fur coats and really wrap up warm. Each year I love to look for something new but I am reluctant to pay high price tags. Why? Some can be so expensive and when you drag them out the dark depths of your cupboards a year later you might have gone off that look. So this year I purchased my Faux fur from Primark. Yes Primark! I am sooooo pleased with my purchase. I kept dreaming of a dusty pink one but when I set eyes on this light grey I was sold! I have so much grey and I knew I could match it better. I purchased a size 10 as I like it to be oversized, it has a lovely collar and great length where it covers my behind :) Some faux fur coats I feel can't really be worn after Christmas (I know its a weird thing to say) but black faux fur to me screams November/ December. Whereas a lighter colour can take you through to February and gives you a longer life span of wearing it.   For the price I paid I still f...

Its Officially the last weekend of Summer with the clocks going back and last week I heard that the temperature was going to drop - Finally! (Since being pregnant I have felt so hot and have been longing for cooler days and they are finally here) In anticipation of the cooler weather I purchased two oversized jumper dresses and have patiently waited to wear them and all of a sudden I had a Jumper dress themed weekend so decided to write about both rather than create two blog posts. Saturdays Style  This jumper is from H&M and was purchased for under £30. Its Charcoal colour and is available in other colours but I find darker colours are much easier to mix and match and style. The is one of my favourite maternity styles without being "maternity wear". Its just a regular oversized jumper and I have bought it 2 sizes bigger than what I would usually wear. The arms are baggy and it has a loose rolled neck, its super comfy and also not too thick. Items like ...

Autumn to me is all about revamping that work wardrobe. I class it like "Back to school" except I'm not in school.. maybe its more like "Back to work" without the 6 week holiday! Instagram and Facebook are no longer fuelled by friends holiday pictures and instead we see proud parents/ friends/ family members sharing their children first day at school pics. Many people have expressed they start fresh in September like children returning to school.. and I want to put it out there - so do I which means NEW WORK SHOES!! At this time of year I love black work shoes..it works best with all weather types and patent is always IN. The Penny Loafers with pearls where a natural choice. I absolutely love the style of these shoes because: - They 100% remind me of Chanel. - Patent is a classic autumn/ winter must have. - They have this seasons "must have" addition of pearls (this has been mine and my mums signature look for a few years now) t...

Zara calls this colour oil - I call it mustard. And I am totally in love with this colour right now.. I feel its one of those colours that seems to suit all hair colours and can be styled in so many creative ways. I found this number from Zara (seems to be my main shop at the moment) The one thing I don't want to do is go over board with this colour but by buying a dress it will be easy to keep reinventing looks which is what I'm all about with my maternity look as it can be costly to keep shopping for clothes (especially when they hopefully won't fit me once baby is here!) With this dress I decided to wear it to my nephews baptism and threw on my Chanel ankle boots, oversized Topshop maxi coat and statement earrings. As the day wasn't too cold I found this outfit worked perfectly but when it gets colder I aim to wear this dress with over the knee boots or biker boots with knee socks.   The dress has three quarter length sleeves, sits just above the ...

Im embracing autumn like theres no tomorrow. Im already on my second pair of ankle boots - admittedly I bought them on the same day.. I really couldn't help myself. I do have an issue where I see something, decide not to get it and then spend ages thinking about it and how I should have bought it - do you do that? This is how the story of my Zara boots begins.. I saw them in passing when I went to Zara to buy a jacket and I thought I would be really good and not over indulge. Then I couldn't stop thinking about them. I stalked the website and finally returned in store where I grabbed them and ran to the till point. Why did I have to have them? They are sturdy and robust.. and as my sister would say "they look like real bother boots". This autumn I am aiming for that biker chic vibe, my focus has now turned to my maternity look and I am loving chunky boots mixed with dresses.. no doubt as it gets colder I will opt for chunky boots, leggings and oversized...

Finally boots season is upon us!! Officially my favourite time of year.. I have so many boots but every year I need to get a new pair or two, or three ... ok ok I have already bought two but these are a slightly different style to what I usually buy. They are higher than the ankle and more robust biker style boots. I love the edge they can give to any look and my style for this autumn is to have dresses with biker boots. Why do I have a style? every year I tend to concur up a style in my head and then I go and buy what I can to achieve it. This autumn with being pregnant.. YES pregnant! I have decided I must stay fashionable yet a little more practical. When I saw these boots I love everything about them.. - The length - so versatile they can be worn with skinny jeans/ leggings/ smock dresses/ midi dresses/ skirts.... I'm sure you can see where I'm going with this. I LOVE the gold details on the buckles, usually boots have silver details and the embroidery jus...

FINALLY I am soooo happy! Why? Erm because I own these  Beauts! Let me explain myself ... Last summer I was in Milan and I fell head over heels in love with the Miu Miu version BUT they had sold out in my size and only had white satin available which is not suitable for London. I left Milan pretty disappointed but with a purse full of Euros ( handy for the next trip) Anyway .... Look what I found in River Island - the best Miu Miu dupe going and I LOVE them!! The ballet trend is set to still be big this year and Miu Miu are still releasing more ballet style pumps so these are the next best thing.   These shoes are full of detail. Predominantly silver, with black bows, gold stud detail AND the famous gingham lace. Gingham is also set to be huge this year so they are perfect to mix and match with your outfits or team with a gingham shirt. Reasons why these are the must have shoes right now? 1. Miu Miu dupe alert! The next best thing! 2. Excellent va...
