New Year’s Fashion Resolution : SnakeSkin

I Am Wearing :

Long Oversized Grey Coat - TopShop

Roll-neck Jumpe Dress - H&M

Grey Ripped Knee Jeans - New Look

Patchwork Snakeskin boots - c/o Boohoo

Jet Set Bag - Michael Kors

Pom Pom Bag Charm - Dorothy Perkins

"New year, new me" - Yeah right! New year, same old me, the same old me that starts out with good intentions, I will eat better, I will exercise more often, I will put my clothes away each night before I go to bed instead of leaving them in a pile on the floor! And somehow no matter how hard I try I always fail before I get in to mid-January. 

Well this year thanks to Boohoo I have already stuck to my New Year’s fashion resolution, which is - to wear more of this years biggest animal print - SnakeSkin, and to try out the 70's inspired Patchwork trend. I have ticked both boxes in one dreamy pair of boots!

Not only do they look super cute but they are really comfy too! The round toe and block heel mean they are a breeze to walk around in all day! Billy Bonus :-)

I have to mention my new TopShop coat too - bought it in the Sale for just £50!! It feels soooo soft and I keep getting so many compliments - I LOVE it when a bargain looks so GOOD!

Happy New Year Darlings - What are your fashion resolutions for 2016?

Bruges at its best!

I Am Wearing : 
Lilac Swing Coat - Asos (old) Jumpsuit - Asos Roll Neck - Zara (old) Socks - River Island  Adidas Stan Smiths - Mainline Menswear
Just before Christmas my husband and I along with 6 of our friendship squad took a cheeky 2 night trip to the beautiful city of Bruges.
It was full of the wonders of Christmas, with beautifully decorated shops, restaurants and houses around every corner, Christmas markets, an ice-rink and even a nativity street parade (see pic of real sheep!) Bruges is one on the most magical places to visit during the festive season.
We consumed more food in 2 days than I have in my kitchen cupboards after a Tesco delivery! We hit up all the tourist spots, we took some time to stroll off the beaten track, I bought some Christmas decorations for my first real tree, did a spot of vintage shopping and finished the trip in the Carrefour next to the Euro-tunnel packing the car full of cheap booze, croissants, french bread and cheese! 
Best weekend away ever!
Gonna try and get up a "What to do in Bruges" post so you guys can plan your own trip - you'll LOVE it :-)
Happy New Year darlings - 2016 is gonna be a big one - I can feel it inside ;-)

Boiler Suit & Suede

I Am Wearing : 

Suede Biker - F&F

Boiler Suit - TopShop

Heels - Zara

Chain Bag - BooHoo

My love for jumpsuits has graduated to the boiler suit!

What do you think?

I am sold! I love it with heels and a biker jacket and it looks just as cute with trainers and bomber jacket too! The only down side is all the buttons when you're desperate for the loo, but that only happened once! ;-)

Also I have to mention this real suede biker jacket from F&F just £75 - bargain of the month!

Happy Humpday my darlings

Mac n Say Cheese!

I Am Wearing : 

Mac - c/o Poppy Lux

Striped Top - Primark (similar)

Dungarees - Asos

Pom Pom Pumps - Asos

Fringe Cross Body Bag - Primark (similar)

Lipstick - Mac Ruby Woo

I know you have seen me in these dungarees very recently but when you find a piece of clothing you love then you should wear it as many times as you like right? I mean Princess Kate re-wears her stuff all the time, so if it's good enough for her it's good enough for me!!

Talking of clothes I love - how cute is this Poppy Lux mac? Perfect AW colour!

Green is slowly creeping its way into my winter wardrobe and I kinda like it.

Also - did any of you spot the couple about to kiss in the back ground of my first photo? I just LOVE it :-)
