Some Jewellery Finds...

So for my last 'Christmas special' posts (!) I thought i'd show some of the jewellery i've already bought in the sales:


Topshop necklace (which I actually bought a couple of months ago, but it's now in the sale :/ )
Miss Selfridge Necklace
Miss Selfridge Bangles
Debenhams (Brighton) Spider Ring
Miss Selfridge Rings
Urban Outfitters (Brighton) Peace Necklace
Completely forgotten where I got this! Somewhere...

Have an amazing Christmas everyone <3 

What I wore...

For my final Christmas shopping today! Comfort was key with all my running around...
Olsen Jumper
Moschino Handbag
Topshop Ring
Solid Gold Bracelet
Primark Necklace & Shoes
I also wore black topshop leggings, but can't find them atm!







How to Dress Like Mary-Kate Olsen

So I have decided to do a typical 'How to dress like...' addition, if anyone has any specific idol they want me to have a look at, let me know and i'll highlight a few of their statement pieces and replicate some looks!
Most of you will know by now that I idolise Mary-Kate, and have done a previous blog post about her, so this will focus on some of her main statement looks, and how she creates them!
Mary-Kate is definitely bold and edgy - the most simplest way to create her style is to oversize; big tees, big hats, big sunglasses, big rings, BIG.
She loves:
Plaid tops, lots of rings, leather leggings, heels/wedges/boots, cardigans, slouchy hats, sunglasses, long scarves, fringed bags... So on!




Invest in:
A fringed handbag
Leather trousers/leggings
Black heeled boots
Kohl eyeliner
Boyfriend rock tees
Loose baggy scarves
Big sunglasses
Lots of bangles and rings

Must-Have

Hi everyone it's Christmas eve!! And I havn't posted in a while... so I shall do a few at once right now - a Christmas special!
Firstly, thank you to everyone who reads and supports my blog - I'm surprised at how many of you there are actually! If you could all 'follow' and become a 'follower' I'd very much appreciate it, and would certainly make more effort with a post a day! 
This post is regarding the ridiculous amount of sales for an accessory by Zara: The gold sequin clutch. 
It's such a bargain too!
This clutch has been seen on an absurd amount of models, stylists and fashion bloggers since it hit the shops! And what's even better is that it goes with pretty much everything I own this season!
Team it with that typical LBD or a bright fuchsia number for night, or with a shirt and leggings during daytime!

Fascinations

Anyone who thinks they can't better themselves never will. Look at all the amazing people surrounding us!! How much talent walks past you down a street? 
Here's a make-up artist who I respect because she became recognised because of her talent. Not connections, just talent.

Tanya Burr


For anyone interested in improving their make-up techniques, or general advice on products - Check out her blog and youtube videos. I am a recent addict of hers!

Just Something

John Mayer - One of my all-time favourites. 

I love to sparkle

A couple of my new favourite obsessions:


Sequin Jackets <3
A perfect friday fashion fix to top over any outfit that needs a bit of sparkle!
Sparkly nails:



These always make me feel so Christmassy!
Want to try adding a bit of oomph to your looks? Sparkles are the best way, whether your as subtle as nail polish, or as bold as a jacket.
