Christmas Pyjama Picks





Everyone loves festive pyjamas, don't they? I know I do. They just seem 10x cosier than normal pyjamas! If I could live in pyjamas, a dressing gown and slippers - I would. Here's my pick of some of the cutest, cosiest Christmas pj's around - perfect for getting snuggled up in on a cold winter's night...

Autumn Fashion Wishlist



Now that Autumn is finally here, and it's actually starting to get colder, I'm looking forward to getting a shed load of new sassy, snuggly clothes (R.I.P bank account). Out with the vest tops and in with the chunky knits? Erm, yes please! Here's some bits I've got my eye on to keep cosy but chic for the rest of the season...

ASOS Lust List (All Under £30!)



I'm at that stage (that comes around far too often) where I'm craving a whole new wardrobe. And one of the first places I tend to turn to for inspiration is ASOS. Here are some of the pieces I've got my eye on, at the moment, all under £30 each...

ASOS 20 Summer Styles Under £20!



I don't really know why I'm making this list because all it's making me want to do is book another summer holiday (with my non-existent funds) RIGHT. THIS. SECOND. But, alas, I've already had a week of sun, sea and sand this year. That doesn't mean I can't drool over all the seriously hot summer stuff on ASOS that I wish I'd bought for MY holiday though, does it? Plus I'm sure it'll be helpful for all you gals who'll be jetting away soon and need a few ideas for some new summery buys!

Jewellery With A Personal Touch | Gemporia Engraved Collection

I'm not someone who wears a lot of jewellery so I like the pieces that I do wear to be special. I featured some earrings from Gemporia on my blog last year (have a peek here) which I loved so when they got in touch to tell me about their new engraved collection, I knew I'd be interested.

Holiday Wishlist

I don't know about you but as soon as I know I'm going on holiday, I instantly feel like I need a whole new wardrobe to take with me. Like, yes, I'm only going for a week but I need a different outfit for each day and night right? Not to mention bags and shoes, too. Here's what I've got my eye on at the moment...

Making A Statement With Happiness Boutique



Fun fact: I'm not very fashionable. There's lots of trends I love the look of; pinafores, culottes, fedoras - they look cool on other people but I would probably never actually wear them myself. Mainly because I like to stick with what I know and I'm all about dressing for the weather and making sure I'm comfortable. So my day to day attire is pretty bland, to be honest. Think plain tees, skinny jeans and a pair of ankle boots or my Stan Smith's and that's my wardrobe in a nutshell. So, adding a bit of pizzazz (this word needs to be used more) with a statement necklace is something I can definitely get on board with...

Essential Items You Need In Your A/W Wardrobe

Back on the capsule wardrobe hype again, I'm here with my picks that I think are perfect for any autumn/winter wardrobe. I'm all about layering, in the colder seasons, and like to go for clothes that can easily be mixed and matched with each other - and I think these items defo fit the bill. Throw in a pair of tights, leggings and/or jeans and a big ol' warm coat and you're set for the season with these essential items that will make you look uber cool and can easily be worn on the repeat...

The Classic Silver Stud With A Rose Gold Twist

If there's one thing I'm happy to invest in, it's a good pair of staple earrings. I used to own loads of earrings and was obsessed with the 'Freedom' jewellery range at Topshop, in particular. However, I soon realised that 'cheap' earrings just didn't work for me. They made my ears really itchy and gave them that manky green tinge. Y'know the dealio. So when Gemporia got in touch and asked if I'd like to try out something from their range, I went straight to the earrings tab...

9 Topshop Pieces You Need In Your Autumn Wardrobe


Now we're officially in a new season, I feel like it's about time my wardrobe reflected that. Out with the old, in with the new and all that. I talked about starting a capsule wardrobe a couple of weeks ago and I've slowly but surely been adding some bits to it but there's still room for way more key pieces yet. I've become obsessed with checking the Topshop 'new in' section at the moment as their Autumn additions are seriously on point. Like, honestly, I want it ALL. But I've restrained myself and picked out just 9 pieces that I really love and think are perfect for any Autumn wardrobe...

How To Start A Capsule Wardrobe


During my (far too regular) Pinterest sessions, I kept coming across a shit ton of pins about 'capsule wardrobes' - and I was intrigued. For a while now, I've been unhappy with my wardrobe and felt like I didn't really like anything in there and wanted to do something about it. Which is why I love the idea of a capsule wardrobe. Essentially, a capsule wardrobe is a collection of versatile pieces - all of which you really love. Pieces that you didn't just buy 'cos it was on sale' and you're not just keeping 'incase you lose 10lbs next summer'. It does mean that you may have a much smaller wardrobe, yes, but everything in there will be able to be mixed and matched with each other and put together to create various different outfits. So, I decided to make this a new mission of mine: to get rid of all my old shit and create a dreamy capsule wardrobe. Here's some tips on  how I'm getting started with it...

Wishlist #5: The Minimalist Edition

I don't know about you guys but I'm all over this idea of a minimalist/capsule wardrobe at the moment. The idea being that you just have a wardrobe full of staple items that can easily be mixed and matched with each other - rather than owning a load of random crap that you've probably only worn once. With this in mind, I've created a wishlist full of items that would make perfect additions for any capsule wardrobe...

If you're a regular reader of my blog, then you'll know I love a good bargain.  I also love clothes & bags, especially the expensive kind - but my bank balance definitely disagrees with this. Luckily for me (and you guys) designer retailer, Psyche, have started a huuuge sale today - full of designer brands - and are also offering an extra 10% off everything in that sale with their secret code...

Wishlist #4 / A River Island Affair

Now we're well and truly into Spring, a wardrobe update is defo on the cards which means a wishlist was way overdue. I wasn't actually planning on doing an all River Island one but, once I started browsing their website and kept stumbling across so many pieces I loved, I just couldn't resist. I've gone for a bit of a blue/white/grey theme here which, again, was unintentional but let's go with it...

Wishlist #2


So, my spending ban is still going strong (pat on the back, for me) but I still feel the need to make wishlists filled with lots of items I can't currently afford - it's almost therapeutic. Here's what I've currently got my eye on...

Wishlist #1



Like a lot of people, I'm on a bit of a spending ban in January where I'm only really buying the bare necessities - so making this wishlist was basically like a form of torture. But at least I'm prepared for when my next pay cheque goes in! Here's the items I'm lusting over at the moment, in my first wishlist of 2015...
