Patchwork Denim Shirts, One Year On

Just over a year ago (!!!), I posted a “Real vs Steal” on the patchwork denim shirts but the trend doesn’t seem to have taken off… or has it? While floating around Topshop after work, my eye fell on this shirt up on a model, vaguely reminiscent of “that Celine shirt”. What do you think, […]

Space NK

This morning, when checking the massive amount of marketing e-mails I get every day (*guys, use a separate e-mail when you sign up for newsletters. They will never let you unsubscribe. Ever.), I saw a more interesting one from Space NK about a goody bag that comes with purchase. Free gifts!? Who doesn’t love a […]

Stuart Weitzman 50/50 Boots

Bloomin’ eck I haven’t posted anything in over a month! (*silence*) Moving on – to the awesome 50/50 boots! Don’t you agree? Yes? Yes? Yes?! Look again my friend, because those boots are from Next. 50/50s for £50. Not £550. You can get them here. They’re currently sold out online (sizes do come back in […]

Make-Up Trends for Autumn

I’m steadily becoming more interested in the make-up looks seen at omgfashionweek – probably because the closest I’ll ever get to recreating a look from the runway is by imitating the make-up, not by buying the clothes. (Unless Zara happen to make a rip-off.) So while I may not have found the perfect pink coat […]

A/W Trends – Pale Pink + Celine vs Zara

A few weeks back, I read a feature on pink being “the colour” for autumn/winter 2013/2014. A quick google search later brought up shots from the runway of dusty pink clothes in all kinds of cuts and styles. As much as I like the colour, pale pink is far too sweet and girly for me […]

Denim Shirts / Olivia Palermo

Denim shirts are one of the many trends that have resurged, but I’m only now warming up to it and thinking of getting a denim shirt for myself. (Yes I’m typically late in catching the Fashion Bahn.) I found a nice one in H&M, but I decided against buying, thinking denim shirts have had their […]

Orogold

We’re having fantastic sunny weather here in England, and for the first time in weeks (months?) I managed to venture out for walk during lunch. Samples were being handed out outside one particular shop and although I ignored one salesperson, I was stopped by another who handed me a sample of a face cream which […]

My Skincare Routine

Following on from my previous post, here is my skincare routine 🙂 Using these products is how I’m finally able to keep my skin clear from spots a.k.a. alien infestation. In the morning: I simply wash my face with water – no cleanser because I don’t think it’s necessary. All  you’re doing is sleeping so […]
