Missguided must haves

Image
Now Missguided always manage to keep up with the good high street trends and they still do not disappoint this season. On top of their usual lovely clothes, it has been the newly stocked coats and jackets that have really caught my eye this time around. I tend to be a bit boring when it comes to coats, I have the obvious leather jacket, a fur coat, a parka and a mac, with the odd blazer and box jacket thrown in that I normally forget I own. But I do tend to go for the staple coats (the ones that I would still wear three years down the line) I don't know if that's because I'm just a bit fussy or because I have never paid under £75 for a coat. I know it sounds silly but when I think about it I always assume that coats are the investment piece of your season.  HOWEVER stop the music because with missguided  I have been proven well and truly wrong! I have fallen head over heels with all of their new season jackets! (I have to wait to go home to order anything because I li...

Stocking fillers

Image
Taking into account the financial state of most people this time of year (or me all year) I thought I would give you lovely readers some ideas for some cute little stocking fillers. If you are struggling to top off the pile or if you get stuck doing a secret santa and don't know what to buy, take a look at these! I love Fedoras and I am SO dissapointed that my hair is so short that I look like Charlie Chaplin when I wear one. This one is such a nice colour from Missguided - Find it here http://tidd.ly/2bd34ba5 This is the cutest little mug ever!! for £10 from Topshop! French connection have started doing all sorts of lovely home ware and beauty products. This colour palette has all of the colours you could think of! http://tidd.ly/adf3f5f5 This clutch from Lavish Alice is stunning. I love anything with studs! Urban Outfitters have out done themselves once again by selling this cute little floral hairdryer. I would LOVE this! Wah nails have t...

Where to find Caroline Flacks best looks!

Image
Now my last Caroline Flack post went down a storm and it's been a while since I did one. And as our love for her grows, so does her style! I mean COME ON not only does she have possibly the best job in the world mingling with the celebs, alongside the nicest hair and wardrobe ever...she is also actually nice! So as the X-Factor has recently hit our screens again (Team James Arthur all the way!) I thought it would be a perfect time to do another post on where you can get your mitts on Flack's lovely clothes! This look from one of the first rounds of auditions shows off Carolines signature long legs! She teams her FCUK denim shorts, AlDO shoes, Whistles blouse and Topshop belt in this stunning combo! Because this was a while ago and her style is so popular, these have sold out but fear not I have some replacements waiting for you! Check out Missguided who are renound for being one of Flacks places to shop! Shorts - http://tidd.ly/9e32f65 Blouse - http://t...

Winter MUST haves!!

Image
Last night was a terrible night. It was the first night I have had to sleep with two duvets and my radiator on. Which means only one thing. Winter is rearing it's sparkly and snowy head. But do not panic my fashion friends because for us this means only one thing..... NEW CLOTHES!  We need boots, coats, hats, scarfs, gloves, ear muffs, jumpers, blouses (layering of course), jeans, tights...the list is endless. So I thought I would give you a few pointers as to where to head for your treats!  As you all probably know, grunge glam is a major trend this season and what better way to reflect this rend that with a touch of camo?! And of course studs. In my opinion there should be studs on everything! But this little stunner is a bargain at £53.99 from Glamorous.com  (you do also get 15% off for liking them on Facebook and free delivery on orders over £45)  This is a personal favorite of mine, taking a slight spin on the leather sleeved jacket. Lining th...

Passion for Fashion!!

Image
Ok so I was lucky enough today to receive an email to enter a competition for money super market to style some outfits using my favorite online retailers. The aim was to create five different Autumn/Winter looks that I thought would suit the given titles all for under £200. These were party, casual, outdoors, first date and office. At the end of the competition there will be one winner for each category who will win £200 to buy their winning outfit, the overall winner will get £1000 to buy each outfit and an I-pad! How cool hey?! So here are my outfits! My selections have come from my most loved online retailers, Missguided, Glamorous UK, Asos, Very and Lavish Alice. Check out the competition here  http://www.moneysupermarket.com/home-insurance/passion-for-fashion/  . Party This look I aimed to create a classy but chic party look. As the seasons are focused on Autumn/Winter I knew that bare legs needed to be contrasted with a higher neck and blazer. (For temperature...

A lot of Flack for Style

Image
So as we all know (unless you've been living under a rock) style star and X-factor gal Caroline Flack has received a lot of abuse for her relationship with Harry Styles. Personally I think she did absolutely NOTHING wrong. For one who wouldn't go out with Harry Styles if they had the chance and two if you looked like Caroline Flack why wouldn't you live your life to the full? But moving on from the Harry Styles fiasco I wanted to prove to cynics out there that Caroline should not be receiving 'Flack' for her relationship but praise for her fashion sense! Being one of the very very few famous women out there who are not a size zero, I think Caroline immediately becomes an idol. She is a healthy, pretty size and wears clothes that are mainly high street based. She also mixes different things and doesn't stick to keeping one specific style. Here at Graduate Fashion week she rocks a simple striped t-shirt with a tulip skirt. On top of this rocking her...

Bits 'n' Bobs

Hey guys! So two days without blogging has been the longest I have been! I've been back down in Cardiff starting my new job in H&M. Which thankfully is really good! Lovely people and store!I really love the fact that we don't have to wear uniform either, everybody that works there is allowed to express their own individual style, which is VERY rare when you're working in retail.  So yeah, me and my best friend/flatmate/none related sister and I went down to check out our lovely little flat and chill out. As a bit of a round up I thought I would post about my beauty/interior/clothing purchases of the week. Interior wise I have gone mad this week! Living with an interior design student is perfect when it comes to me wanting to spruce up my room. Lately Next has had the most beautiful home ware. I decided to turn my room from pink and flowers ( which is the running theme through our flat) to red and cream, still fitting in with my vintage love. So here are some of...
