Truly British

-
As the jubilee approaches it seems right to keep everything from our wardrobe to our beauty accessories truly British. Streets and shops are decorated with bunting and flags so let's take a look how we can all rock a bit of the jubilee chic ready for next weekend!

Although not as British as it originally was, ladies and gents we should all be well and truly sporting a piece of Mulberry arm candy for the weekend, the once completely British brand has been responsible and made famous for creating some of the most traditional and beautiful leather bags.


If there was any prime time to invest in some nail art treats, this week is the time! Grab your red, white and blue nail varnish and add your details with a white nail art pen and you have the jubilee all over your hands!
Beautifully British Burberry, another must have for the celebrations. Ladies get your red lipstick on and show  how you can sport the great British colours in any way! Use a light  layer for daytime and vamp it up for your evening celebrations by adding a few extra layers and a bit of gloss!


Now this one could be purely selfish on my part, but as the jubilee concert takes place, it welcomes some of Britain's most loved performers and I will be watching Robbie Williams all the way. Being one of the countries most loved and adored performers and on top of the being one of the best live performers that this country has ever produced, nobody is a better fit to celebrate in British style than our stoke lad Rob!

When it comes to the numerous street parties or barbecues happening across the country (fingers crossed for the weather) who else is there to turn to for the best quirky and cute accessories but Cath Kidston! With a whole Jubilee collection sporting some of the most adorable kitchen and summer accessories Cath Kidston remains so truly British the queen herself would agree!

So whether you're celebrating or not, I urge everybody to jump on board with the jubilee spirit. Paint your nails or brush your hair with the new (and extremely cool) union jack tangle teaser! Eat your jubilee cake off the queens face or simply drink some good old British cider! Whatever you choose to do have fun and enjoy being beautifully British!

xoxo

Seth Cohen was my first love

The last month or so has flown by! As if we are already in July. Terrifying. I've been a bit slow on the blog posts lately, I've sort of felt a lack of inspiration to write about much but something yesterday spurred on my need to write. ALEXA CHUNG IS DESIGNING HER OWN LINE. Yes that is right, our favourite style icon is finally adding to her mark on the fashion world with her own collection.  This got me thinking about how quickly your taste and opinions on everything change. From clothes you like to food you eat. So I thought I would take a look at some of my first favourites I'm talking teenage years by the way this isn't going to be a break down of my first word and hair cut. 1. First TV Addiction - The OC Seth Cohen was my first love. Hands down, his geeky little comments and penguin jumpers were all I needed through the OC. I actually remember it was on every Tuesday night and it was the highlight of the week! Also I mea

Next festive competition

So feelingstylish.co.uk is running a competition for us bloggers to create a Christmas window for Next. All you have to do is simply design your window using next products and submit your entry in a comment on the feelingstylish.co.uk blog. I have done my own entry (I will admit it is hard to create the window and make it look realistic so make sure you explain your concept) My window focuses on a pale colour scheme. It is extremely feminine and not obviously Christmas themed in the way that there is no red or gold to be seen! I chose to use the two glitter Christmas trees as features as they are adorable! I would actually have the fairy lights on the left wrapped through the branches of the trees for a more whimsical feel. I have then chosen two party dresses. Seeing as party season is all about the sparkle I chose to pale pink numbers both embellished beautifully with sequin. They are both quite loose fitting and therefore PERFECT for when you've eaten a bit too

Money vs Style

As I sit here next to my best friend searching Amazon for a cheap pot of OPI muppets collection I can't help but wonder if having more money makes it easier to be more stylish?  Think about it..... Being a student means I am poor 99% of the time apart from my birthday or Christmas. Luckily for me it is my 21st birthday on Sunday and therefore had the luxury of having over 200 pounds to spend on of course clothes! Although I wanted my Mulberry Bayswater for my birthday I was EVEN more over joyed to unwrap my beautiful Michael Kors rose gold watch off my parents. (partly because it is extremely shiny) but mainly because this is the first truly expensive item I have really owned. The first thing I know I will keep for the rest of my life.  So does money make you more stylish? Look at celebrities, they are always the ones captured and photographed for the style pages of magazines, so why not photograph normal people? I know that people are not really interested in those "normal
