Big Bows & Bouquets

I Am Wearing :
Big Bow Collar - c/o Dawson D Rose Breton Stripe Sweater - H&M (old) Boyfriend Jeans - New Look Ankle Strap Heels - Zara (old) Watch - Caravelle 
Hope your Sunday is as chilled as mine!
After having a lovely Birthday week I thought I would bring some of the beautiful flowers I have received into my latest blog post!
This week the lovely ladies over at Dawson D Rose sent me the beautiful (made in England) big bow collar that I am wearing in this post. I just love discovering home grown talent and I have the up most respect for British designers who can make their products here in the UK. Please go and check them out - they have a selection of gorgeous collars that can be worn with any outfit and will soon be launching some beautiful sleeveless jackets - well worth a look!
Much love and thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes
You are the BEST!

Casual Christmas Party

I Am Wearing : 
Gold Metallic Cardigan - c/o OASAP Black V-Neck T-Shirt - Primark Ripped Knee Jeans - c/o Boohoo Heels - Zara
  It's officially party season and that means - its time to get dressed up, throw your heels up and enjoy yourself!
It also means that you have to plan lots of party appropriate outfits and some times at the last min - you know, when your friend rings you up to be her "work party date" because her boyfriend has man-flu etc!
My TOP TIP for quick party glamour and my go-to, fall back , easy option, never fails outfit is - 
skinny jeans + basic tee + glam jacket / blazer or cardigan in this case + cute heels or sparkly flats + coordinated or clashing clutch + Glam lips (if the colour can match your shoes and bag then even more amaze!) = party ready in 20 mins (ish)
Go forth and party my little dance-floor Queens (and Kings)
Merry Christmas
XOXO
