Six Weeks

I showed you all this top in this post. I absolutely love it - the shape, the sparkles... everything about it. I found it in Forever 21 a few weeks ago and have been wearing it loads since I got it. It feels really Christmassy which I love. It was £25 and you can order it online on their website.

Rust Coat

This is my new favourite thing in my wardrobe - my rust boyfriend coat from Topshop. It came with a big faux fur collar, which is nice, but most the time I prefer it without. I love the shape, the colour, the length, the button holes... absolutely everything about it! it also matches perfectly with my new Chili lipstick from MAC. Feeling very 1940s.

My new baby

I've been wanting a larger wallet for a while, but haven't been able to save up. So when I received a lovely voucher I knew I wanted to use it towards something amazing which I'd keep for years. I headed straight to Miu Miu because I've always loved their wallets.

Nail Porn with Sophy Robson

After the blogger hunt in Westfield I thought I'd go for a wander around the Car Boutique before heading home. Whilst browsing, I was approached by Firetrap and asked if I wanted my nails done by Sophy Robinson.... yes, she said Robinson. Me being the nail obsessed person that I am, knew she meant Sophy Robson. So unlike all the other shoppers in Westfield who politely turn down her offer, I said "YES PLEASE!". For a while I thought really? Is Sophy Robson really gonna sit in Westfield and paint nails?

Found some stripes

When the temperature suddenly dropped, I went straight to H&M to buy myself a jumper! I actually went to find a striped one... and I did! It's not the softest knit I own, but I really like the black and cream stripes and I think it will come in handy for layering.

You found me!!!

So yesterday was the Blogger Hunt in Westfield London. I woke up early, finished writing my clues, got ready and headed to Shepherds Bush. I was quite nervous that people wouldn't come because it was such a gorgeous sunny day; anyone who would choose to spend it indoors is pretty crazy... or in this case, desperate for a £100 Westfield voucher!!

The Look Show A/W11: Getting Ready

Surprisingly, it didn't take long for me to decide what to wear to the Look Show. I usually opt for the Rock/Classic look (which is what I like to call it). I like to think this outfit is simple but still stylish. I knew I needed a hat to make it interesting... I've never worn a hat before that isn't a wooly winter hat, so this was pretty exciting for me (sad, I know). I bought one from Topshop and one from H&M, and after a consultation with my 3 best girlfriends, we all decided the H&M one was much nicer (and cheaper too!).

Toni & Guy: Hair meets Wardrobe

Last Thursday I had the pleasure of attending Toni & Guy's first ever catwalk show with the lovely Zoe. It was a great way to start off London Fashion Week and it was nice to be back at the amazing Somerset House. 

It was also a chance for me to test out my hat before the Look Show! My first hat outing :-)

CW Salon at Home

Last week I was invited along to hear about some exciting new products by Charles Worthington. It was a really interesting evening where we watched a presentation and learnt about the Salon at Home 'Straight & Smooth' kit. Have you ever heard someone say they've had their hair chemically straightened? This is basically an 'at home' version of that. This was something I was particularly interested in as I have in the past spent £300 at a time getting my hair 'relaxed' to get rid of the frizz and to make it more manageable.

Elle Wall

I finally finished my wall of Elle mag covers in my bedroom. I've had three empty spaces for ages because I was struggling to find some reasonably priced clip frames. Now I have framed them and moved them all around... and it's finally finished. I love it!

Green Envy

I got these green 'Jaime' jeans from Topshop a few days ago. I fancied something a bit different as I seem to be wearing blue jeans everyday now and I'm getting a bit bored. I thought these would look nice with my Topshop Allegra boots too.
