Halloween!

Sunday, 2 November 2014

Now that Halloween is over, I wanted to share with you, my costume! I was lazy and went for the easy option, face paint! Putting my artistic ability to the test, this is my attempt at a sugar skull..

A little shopping never hurt nobody

Sunday, 26 October 2014

Another week ... another H&M shopping spree. 

I originally popped in to H&M to get some nice work wear pieces (I've just landed a new job at Kurt Geiger, so I wanted some classy pieces that weren't too pricey!) but I just couldn't resist buying a few other bits from their newest Winter drop. Full of warm browns and burnt oranges, H&M have got the cosy Autumn vibe down to a tee. 

I absolutely fell in love with this midnight blue faux fur gillet, perfect with over the knee boots and a floppy hat for a full on 70's look. 



Then I also snapped up this pretty brown zipped skort and flowery dress - bargains at just £7.99 and £12.99!



For a party on Friday I styled the wrap around skirt with a flower print t shirt from Fashion Union and some wintery black tights (and a pout of course). But I think it'll work equally well with a chunky knit jumper and ankle boots for Christmas shopping on those frosty December days! Let me know how you'd style it!

SAVAGE BEAUTY

Thursday, 23 October 2014

Last year I came across the book ‘Savage Beauty’, whilst on art foundation. It is a book solely focused on celebrating the most amazing pieces made by Alexander McQueen throughout his career. I fell in love with the outrageous designs and complex structures, each piece an artwork in their own right.
 
So imagine my happiness when I found out that the Savage Beauty exhibition was coming to LONDON! (I am very happy if you never caught on..) It will exhibit the most brilliant and extravagant designs spanning McQueen’s entire career, even up to his unfinished collection of AW10!

 
The exhibit will showcase from the 14th March – 19th July 2015 in The Victoria and Albert Museum, London. The tickets are about £17.50, with price changes for students, Senior citizens e.t.c.
 
I will definitely be purchasing my tickets ASAP for this once in a lifetime experience, I suggest you do too!

H&M x Alexander Wang

Tuesday, 21 October 2014

I'm not gonna lie, I had high hopes for the Alexander Wang Collection with H&M but I have to say Iam disappointed with some of the pieces that he has brought out. I get that Wang's signature style is clean cut and a little sport luxe but I feel that the collection he has brought out is deffo more sporty than anything luxe, it's just not my cup of tea!

 Okay...with being a lover of all clothes and all styles, there are some pieces that I do like i.e. the big oversized jumper with WANG embossed on it in the grey jersey, which I think is slighlty fabulous and may look into buying!



 I also really like the oversized jacket in the neoprene material, it would be perfect with black ripped skinnies, a grey marl t-shirt and some casual trainers but it does have a pretty large price tag (£179.99) on it so I'd personally rather put the money towards something else. Saying that though, you are getting a designer name at a not so designer price, which is a fabulous idea we need more of!

 As much as I'm not a fan of the collection overall, I do love how it was presented as all the models walked down the 'running track' runway with sporty head gear.
Not quite sure when the collection hits the shops but have a gander and let me know what you think of the collection, or what you think you will wear. It will be interesting to see what sells in the collection especially the leather pants for £179.99!!

Lots of love,

Surprise Surprise - More Shopping

Saturday, 18 October 2014

For anyone who lives in Bristol. BS8 is one of the most well known and loved vintage shops; and as I mentioned in my post earlier in the week, I got to pop in on Thursday night for a Student Lock In. Drinks, a DJ and 20% discount off all clothes - what more could a girl ask for!?

After my splurge at Cabot Circus on Monday I promised myself that I wasn't going to spend any more money, but I just couldn't resist this gingham and tartan patterned scarf. A dead ringer for a scarf that I had my eye on in Zara and a snip at just £11.99!



I also took some cheeky pics of my favourite pieces from in store. Enjoy - and next time you're in Bristol make sure you pop in!
