This blouse is wonderful. I really do like blouses but only own one. What caught my eye first was the colour, i love good blues and reds this season rather than just black and white like i usually wear. Secondly was the full outfit. I could see myself wearing some green trousers with this blouse and, naturally, if i buy the blouse ill need to buy the shoes too. I love chunky, built up shows at the moment and would love some more heels since i only own one pair. Shocking right! So anyway - thats my pick for this week - click here to see it on the Asos website. 

Tatty Devine

Another great site which i have found since i have started blogging. These rings are quirky and a real different style to all the gold and silver on the highstreet at the moment. I reckon they are slightly overpriced but they are too unique to miss out on.

They are from Tatty Devine and come in 3 colours. Oh and whats with the odd looking women wearing the ring on their website?

No doubt i will do a post tomorrow on all this snow we seem to have! I went for a lovely stroll with my friend today and took some nice photos. I also have the day off college tomorrow (due to snow) so will have plenty of time to post. May try and redo my blog layout a bit too. Hope everyone is keeping warm.

Embrace christmas

Right now i am lusting over chunky knits. To be fair i think i have alot already but you can never have too many. Cause of this cold weather, which i doubt anyone can have missed, i have needed them all the time. But this one from topshop has just about everything in one jumper! Burgundy, christmas, knitted, chunky, warm, reindeer, jumper. How could you not just want it?! But seeing as i dont have £48 lying around it looks like i wont be getting that.
Instead i am going to check out the sale at Yayer from 9pm tomorrow evening! They are going to have loads of products reduced. Also im going to do an outfit post tomorrow if i have time. I have a few new things that i want to show all my lovely followers. Some jeans which my boyfriend bought me (youll know about them if you follow me on twitter) and a handknit cardigan which my mum bought me from a charity shop. She is too kind.

YAYER

I recently found this site on someone elses blog, cant remember whos so comment me if it was yours! It is called Yayer. Been looking at it for ages today, i love the way they style the pieces and how individual each piece is. I have chosen this vintage prancing pony dress as my favourite. Its adorable and cute in a deep red colour. The ruffles at the front are also great for a body shape like mine (aka flat).

Secondly - in my Graze box which came in the post today i got 'bear necessities' 'honeycomb flapjack' 'deli topped focaccia' and 'new england'. They all look lovely and getting it has absolutely made my day! I havent eaten any as of yet, saving them for tomorrow. To get your first box for free just enter R1MYRKN3 :)
Thirdly - i have finished my fancy dress ourfit for tomorrow. Will get a picture when i am wearing it. Second outfit post anyone? So yeah today has been okay. Really wish there was more time in a day though.

ps. thanks to any new followers and all the comments. they are so lovely! thinking of a xmas giveaway, any ideas?

C is for Cake

http://www.strayjewellery.com/rings/wise-owl-ring-gold

 01. Found 'Stray Jewellery' recently and they have some lovely things on there. I went for the ring cause i could not choose between the amazing choice of necklaces that they have. Their pricing is reasonable and the postage is free which is always a bonus. Animal rings, well rings in general, are an actual obsession of mine atm. So you know, feel free to send me things ;)


02. I bought some new shoes today. In fact i bought some heels. Now this may seem odd for a 16yr old girl but this is the first of heels that i have owned. I am already 5"7 so have never wanted to be any taller. But how can you resist these at just £30!

Sorry for the poor quality of pictures. The lighting is bad, and they are a little fuzzy.

03. Cake, as the title says. Its my boyfriends birthday in just 1 hour so i made him this cake last night. To be quite honest i am very proud of myself. I didnt make the actual cake section, thats just a swiss roll, but icing it and all the fiddly wings took a bit of doing! 5 hours to be precise. This is the end product. He better be grateful!

04. Bought Glamour magazine today, mainly for the free Nails inc nail varnish but ill read the mag too. I got Saville Row which is a dark purple with what seems to be a slight reddish tint. Its quite similar to Temptress by No7. Its lovely and smooth to apply and only needs one coat which is ggod since then it lasts for longer. Will probably end up buying anouther Glamour just for some of the other polishes.

Should i?

01. Okay so im a sucker for skinny jeans. I practically used to live in them. Right now i am trying to not wear them so much cause there are just so many other options - skirts, dresses, shorts, trousers, playsuits. But i saw these in topshop this week and i couldnt not post about them. Deep down i still love skinny jeans, i guess its kind of a habit. These are like the perfect colour for this season too! The last pair i bought from topshop i wasnt too happy with though. Its  seems as though the elastic has gone in them and they have stretched all over the surface so they are unwearable. I cant say that is putting me off buying these.
What does everyone else think about the subject of jeans? A good yes or a definate no?

All things snug

I love winter cause it gives you a chance to wrap up warm and an excuse to drink hot chocolate curled up by the fire So this weeks pick is an accessory that you just cant go without. Ive had scarves every other year but this year i think im going to embrace the snood. They look so snug for these cold months which is just perfect. Was looking around and there are some great ones on zara and topshop but F&F at Tesco hit the spot. A slouchy knitted snood in brown (or i would call mink), neutral shade for this season. They come in other colours and styles too. AND they are only £5, so you can buy more than one.

What do you think?
Oh and if there isnt another post this week its because i just havent had time and am currently in the Isle of Wight with my boyfriend and his family. So i will post asap. Cheers for reading guys.

Pick Of The Week

Topshop - Long Sleeved Peter Pan Tunic

01. Okay so i spent a bit of time trying to create an image with each of the peter pan collar tunics in but its turned out a bit rubbish. Ah well. You can just have a look on the website. Peter pan collars is a trend that i am in love with right now. These tunics are so simple but come in a great palette of autumn-winter colours. Think i may go for the other one they sell at topshop though - couple of pounds more expensive but in a lovely rose floral print. But these are my pick of the week because they are such a staple item you cant not have one.

Pick Of The Week

Ok so this is week two of my new feature. Its going to be another Zara item, i think they have hit this season perfectly. The colours in this hat are stunning and the hat itself is just to cute. Wasnt really sure about it at first but i mean how can you say no really.. perfect accessory for this winter.

Will you be having this in your wardrobe?

Feature

Think im going to start doing a pick of the week. Add something slightly more regular to my blog until i get round to doing some outfit posts, which will happen! I will choose one item (although i doubt ill be able to stick to just one item most weeks) that has caught my eye whilst ive been online shopping, or just shopping for that matter. They wont always be extravegant pieces since that isnt particularly my style but sometimes something a bit different gets my attention. Since its now a tuesday night i'll do it on a tuesday. Seems reasonable. So this week is plain and simple but so gorgeous.

The beauties are from zara and i think they will go with just about anything. Velvet is a material that is starting to come back in. Dont think i will be brave enough to wear it in some of my key pieces yet so i think ill start on the shoes.


In other parts of my life i am wuite looking forward to the opening of the pool and fitness complex only 2 minutes from where i live! Then i will have no excuse to do a bit more exercise. I will probably get a membership and go along to a few of the classes with mates after college. Can also use the gym and pool as often as i like then, a little luxury.
