Chanel dupes Openwork slingback high heel shoes from Zara

Image
introducing my recent pride and joy... These gorgous shoes!! I am literally shoe crazy right now but I am crazy about getting good value dupes and I am ticking every box in my quest with Zara's shoes. These are my Chanel dupes.. I have a few now but I really love these. These are a deep black suede texture with caged fronts, sling backs which are very Chanel and chunky heels. When I picked them up I was in two minds but I have got to say I am so glad they are mine. They scream fashionista and are so classy. The toes are capped which is great as I hate seeing toes and keeps the look more elegant with being able to see less. The caged effect is so different and they just seriously scream Chanel to me. I have bought these to wear as a guest for a Baptism with a gingham dress. I have never bought a mid -heel like this one so I, excited to see how long I last in them! Top reasons to buy the latest Chanel dupes? 1. Great value for money - look far more expen...

Rose Bombshell bath bomb from Lush

Image
At the end of 2016 I made a decision to take control of 2017 and have more "me time" I was living in the fast lane and had so many weeks and weeks of parties, drinks, friends and family and would find I would get to Sunday evening exhausted. So in my quest to have more "me time" it didn't mean I had to stop any of the above but just do things I find relaxes me. For most people a bath is pure relaxation and for me it is too. So being a Lush Virgin I took the step and decided to join the fad of bath bombs and things that basically make baths fun yet relaxing (basically able to channel your inner kid) With not a clue I walked into Lush and the lady was extremely friendly talking me through all the different bath bombs and scents etc. I am a huge lover of Rose so she pointed me to the "Rose Bombshell" bath bomb and before I knew it I happily skipped out of the store and started dreaming of when I could use it. Which brings me to Sunday ...

Gingham asymmetrical hem shirt dress from H&M

Image
I'm so excited about this dress. Two reasons - it's my favourite print Gingham and its Asymmetrical hem. I saw the dress in H&M in passing and was actually there for something else so I just picked it up and put it on my arm with all my other garments (I always do that) then I find a mirror and assess all items one by one. Without knowing when I looked in the mirror and thought this would be perfect for a Baptism I have coming up. I am so sick of buying occasional dresses and only wearing them once BUT I know I can dress this up fir the baptism and completely transform the look for another day. The dress is a gorgeous shirt dress design, it has buttons to the waist. To put it on you will need to put over your head. It has an asymmetrical hem which makes it fun and flirty and the bottom of the dress are layered so it gives a ruffle effect. To make the dress more casual you can wear with a pair of skinny jeans underneath or even a jumper over the...

Nude western style choker from Primark

Image
I always say "I've got so many chokers I'm not going to buy another one" BUT I always end up finding a new one. So what's the story about this one? Originally I chose it to be a part of my follower giveaway but when I picked it up, I thought I want one too! You know what it's like when you buy someone a present and then you really want it :) So not only does my giveaway winner receive one I now have one too! And again this one is different from my others I have. It's a nude/ light pink colour with rose gold detail and a large bow (all of mine are black/ silver or gold) so it really is different. It has a western theme to it and I don't have anything that resembles this trend. My top reasons why you should purchase this actual choker? 1. Excellent value for money. 2. Gorgous warm tones of colour - perfect for spring/ summer. 3. Western trend details. 4. Pretty and girly style with the large bow detail. 5. Subtle addition to an...

Contrasting pineapple crossbody bag from Zara

Image
Presenting my Pineapple mini bag. This year we are set to see a new extreme of bags... Gone are the oversized bags... It's ALL about the mini ones and this one is the cutest one around from Zara. It's has 3 of my favourite things 1. Monochrome. 2. Gold. 3. It's shaped like a pineapple! AND my gorgous sister bought it for me for my birthday! Well I picked it and she gave me the money  :)  I absolutely adore it. What is not to love! It has a cage effect to make it resemble that of the pineapple skin, gorgous spikes on one size and a gold long chain to wear cross body or on one side. I saw the actual bag online first and something about it had me dreaming, it's so cute and a great bag for your essentials -phone, money, keys and a lipstick. I purchased this from Instore and I am going to wear it for London Fashion Week festival as I am wearing monochrome. Why do you need to purchase a pineapple mini bag? 1. Mini bags are set to be big this year - ...

My visit to LFW festival at 108 The Strand

Image
Back in January my best friend and I discussed attending The London Fashion Week Festival, we both haven't been before and thought it would be a great day out. I was extremely lucky as she bought me my ticket as my birthday present, the silver package and upgraded to front row tickets for the catwalk... So you can imagine I was extremely excited. Upon arrival we were given wrist bands and our package included Vivienne Westwood designed tote bags. As we entered we were 40 minutes away from attending the "Trend" catwalk show so we decided to scope the place out... We saw a few stools and then headed to the show. Scheduled at 4pm we had great seats and it was all very exciting. The show was all about the ruffles and print trend all of which could be purchased at 108 The Strand. The spectators were all taking pictures and filming the show, it was a great atmosphere and I fell in love with two outfits - the red trousers, embroidered jacket and lace top (a...

Grain striped organdy kimono from TwistxTurn

Image
I am so excited to finally share one hell of a Top with you, I only bought it nearly a year ago but it's one of Twistxturn classic looks and for me will be a timeless piece for a few years. Whilst shirts are currently on trend in a big way it's finally time I wore this beauty. This top is a Krisp white kimono style, with bat wing sleeves and a belt. This is definately a top every fashionista needs as it has a great peplum style edging which looks great with tight jeans or pencil skirts. So why now? Ive decided this is the perfect top to wear to London Fashion Week Festival! Like I said it's a fashionistas dream, it's overstated yet it's not too in your face and I just love the silhouette it creates and the shape it adds to my body. The fabric is slightly transparent and I would wear a vest top or something underneath... Unless your abroad and it's scorching hot.. There is so much detail with the rouched hem, bow belt and bat wing sleeves ...
