Bejewelled...


Just a quick update today, I promise to post a nice, long, jam packed entry this weekend, but for now my new set will have to suffice.




This set was inspired by this Topshop jacket... yes TOPSHOP. It looks like its hopped straight off the catwalk. I just couldn't resist.

Enjoy

Will be back soon

Happy Sunday ...

Hello all,

It has, I fear been a little over a week since I last updated. Apologies. I started my new job this week, so all of my energy and effort has been focused on that... well up until Thursday anyway.
But now, after a nice weekend away by the seaside I have an eclectic bundle of things that I would like to share.

My first port of call is Your Eyes Lie, I have always been a fan of this brands digital print vest tops and t-shirts but I have recently started to stalk their "vintage look" page, unveiling some of the prettiest and quirky dresses that I've seen in a while. Whilst being really affordable they are also so different to all the dresses currently on the highstreet. Unfortunately my favourite dress (the first one pulled below - the navy beauty) is sold out, but I'm hoping that it will soon be back in stock in time for my first pay packet in this new job.

Below I have pulled a few of my favourite dresses from the brand, and although they may look a tad summery I think with a nice, oversized, chunky knit cardigan and tights, these would work a treat for winter.



My new favourite thing <3




Next up is the lovely works of Amelie A Poulain, discovered on my usual weekly trawling on Etsy her page is crammed with a wide range of brilliant photographic prints. Below I have pulled some of my favourite prints, I think these in particular capture the energy and edge of this photographer, be sure to visit her page and take a look at what else she has to offer.






And finally Dogeared. As some of you will know, this is one of my favourite jewellery brands of all time. I love the simplicity of their jewellery and especially the new bracelets that they are currently stocking, yes they seem pretty pricey considering how delicate they are, but the look of their pieces along with the inspiration behind them make them easily one of the best young jewellery brands out there.

I have to say I am more a fan of the simple pieces of jewellery that they stock, I think that is what they do best, the karma bracelets and the wishbone necklaces are little pieces of greatness. I could spend hours confessing my love for Dogeared but I will instead spoil you with a collection of my personal favourite pieces. If the images below aren't enough to win you over then hop over to their website where I'm sure you will find something to fawn over.

a perfect pattern....

Hello all.

So today whilst out and about in the city I saw the prettiest paisley scarf in H&M, resisting temptation (until next week), I left the store without buying it but it triggered me to come home and delve into the wonderful world of pattern. As all of my good friends know, I love decorative surface patterns, whether it is intricate, traditional design such as that of William Morris or more contemporary geometric patterns I just can't get enough of them.
With this I pulled out some of my favourite looks from Vogue and Style.com - all of course, focusing around pattern. I must say, even though there are many beautiful designs out there, Matthew Williamson remains the master of pattern.... but then again, once you work with Pucci, it's inevitable.

Basso & Brooke



Erdem <3

And finally, the man himelf, Matthew Williamson. These frocks are so pretty they're almost worthy of being framed. Delightful.






Hope you enjoy these as much as I did.

J'adore...


I thought it was about time for another set. I'm really liking the amount of great blouses around at the moment, easy to wear and look great dressed up or down. This was the inspiration for this set I just put together.

J' adore the Adam Heart blouse and Steve Madden Annton wedge.
