I'm obsessed with present buying. I'm obsessed with the perfect gifts for the right person.
Personalised gifts are always a favourite for me as a personal gift is always more special, a gift that you can label or associate with someone is always more special!
I recently got sent to most amazing personalised gift from the lovely people at The Treasure Chest Accessories.
What is more personal, and special than a personalised item of jewellery?
You can wear it every day, you can treasure it forever and it's something always close to your heart that can be passed from generations.

WINTER COMFORT ESSENTIALS
24.10.14
As my absolute favourite seasons just around the corner, and my favourite season of fashion is hitting the shelves my challenge of finding the perfect winter essentials begins!
Year on year as the summer ends I get more and more excited for the winter and the gorgeous winter items and most of all Christmas.
I find that each there their are 6 main things thatre essential to find for the winter months; a fur coat, pair of gloves, oversized scarf and the essential pair of slippers.
When I can across the amazing brand Bedroom Athletics (which I'm sure you're all familiar with), my slipper issue was solved.
Bedroom Athletics put and end to those 'novelty slipper' gives that you love for 5 minutes then you instantly wish you have a more versatile, comfy and ultimately warm pair that're actually going to last you for winters to come.
So after being unable to find the perfect pair of slippers since my first pair of Bedroom Athletics Slipper Boots I was bought years ago by my Dad, it's come that I know need a new pair of slippers I can rely on.
I've been obsessed with fluffy Mule Slippers this year and have been searching for the best pair for the best price. I bought a pair of camel coloured ones from Primark but for £4 unfortunately you get what you pay for. Which unfortunately was a pair of slippers that were good for only a week, but the low quality fur used in them became limp, lifeless and looses its fluff from being worn and they don't fit the expectations at all, and soon found themselves at the bottom of my shoe box...
So when I can across Bedroom Athletics huge range of Mule Slippers in all colours and styles from your traditional sand, chocolate and camel colour fur mules to brightly coloured Mules too, but what makes Bedroom Athletics' Mules the best is their amazing fluffiness which is from their Genuine SheepSkin which is throughout the slipper, outside, inside, top, and bottom giving your feet the perfect kennel for winter, and I'm obsessed!
Bedroom Athletics have the most amazing ranges from Fluffy Slipper Boots, Moccasin Slippers, Balerina Slippers, Slipper Socks and one of my favourites is their collaboration with Harris Tweed to create the most amazing range of Mule and Moccasin Slippers in the most desirable range of Harris Tweeds and Tartans. They even offer direct types of Mules with or without fur lips and adorable Moccasins with bows and boat shoe style rims.
Bedroom Athletics don't just do the most amazing range of Indoor Footwear but they do gorgeous Loungewear too!
From Vest and Short Sets, Lightweight Fitted Onesies to Slouchy and even Furry and Fluffy Onesies too, the perfect selection of year round Pyjamas and Loungwear in amazing quality, styles and the best selection.
Their Loungewear ranges from Fleeces Ponchos to Fleeced Hoodies and Track Pants, to Dressing Gowns and Check Lounge Pants and Shorts as well as Leggings and T Shirts too.
I'm honestly obsessed with the amount of fleeced options, and keep dreaming of Christmasy Mornings in a Fleeced Onesies, Ponchos and Fleeced Lounge Hoodies and Lounge Pants Set.. Heaven!
The amazing quality and fit of my Coral Molly Mules is amazing and they turn my cold feet into little furry pieces of heaven.
Since having my Bedroom Athletics Slipper I've tried comparing them with my old pairs of slippers and nothing compares. The structure and quality manufacturing of them are just divine and I can tell they're going to last me a very long, long time.
So if you're after that perfect pair of slippers, pyjamas or Loungwear to get your through the typical English weather and cold mornings and nights I really highly recommend that you check the amazing selection of quality perfection at Bedroom Athletcis.
MAJOR LONDON 05
27.9.14
Major London 05 is a brand I love with a pair of gorgeous Sisters teaming up and putting their design talents to one creating a fabulous urban sportswear inspired womanswear and menswear fashion label.
Major London 05 launched in January 2013 and have since dressed celebrities such as X Factor's Misha B and Little Mix as well as reality star TOWIE'S Ferne Mccann. Major London bring you unique individual prints, urban designs inspired by the 90's. Bold statements and impressionistic designs for people who want to say it out loud by what they wear.
"Be Bold, Be Brave, Be Beautiful."
I've been a fan of Major London 05 since I came across the Sister Duo, Nav and Gurpreet's amazing designs in 2013 and then teamed up with the girls myself photographing their every collection since.
Major London 05's prints are so unique and their designs, and silhouettes are such awesome. They create unisex wear for the bold males and the experimental fashionista females creating shapes and designs to be worn by both sexes to be styled in their own unique ways from boxy oversized tees, mesh basketball shirts, sweatshirts, leggings and much, much more.
I adore Major London's collections with bold and textured prints mixing patterns and styles as well as colour and texture to add to their unique designs and recognisable collections.
The Major London girls send me their gorgeous Snake Skin Boxy Unisex Oversized Tee (£24.00) which is just too cool. Major London's unique print designs by Gurpreet make their brand so different and original with textured designs exciting to the touch, with colour and materials complimenting one another to reflect the gorgeous metallic tones off their Snake Skin Oversized Tee, just like snake skin.
I styled my Unisex Oversized Snake Skin Tee tucked into my favourite pair of Essential Leggings from Primark (£4.00) to allow the statement tee to make its statement alone, and not to create to much colour and texture and not overpower the look. The Major London 05 Tee alone with carefully selected accessories is the perfect amount of unique statement.
I wore with my Tee and Leggings, my must have Snake Skin AW14 Pointed Trainer Slips from Primark (£12.00) picking the metallic tones from the Tee with this subtle but statement trainer bring the look together.
Accessorising with my favourite Silver Chunky Chain (£8.00) and Chainmail Monochrome Snake Print Shoulder Bag (£19.99), both from H&M.
I love this Unisex Tee perfect with just a pair of leggings tucked in to oversized, or over your favourite pair of ripped jeans with a chunky cleated shoe and oversized clutch bag. Even the perfect sized to lounge in at home on your day off with its oversized lounge feel but allows you to slob in style.
Each Major London 05 items is made with love and utter design perfection with their quality materials. My favourite things about Major London 05 is how you can buy such unique statement pieces for such an affordable price. Its so nice and fresh to see a brand sell their garments for an desirably affordable price and not using their uniqueness to set sky high prices. It's every fashionista's dream to be able to be loyal to a brand with such affordable price tags, as well as being available from ASOS Marketplace makes your favourite brand easy to purchase from, delivered right to your door.
I've been photographing Major London 05's collections since their first SS13 Collection last year. During their AW13 Collection which I photographed for their ASOS Marketplace release at Clothes Show Live after the girls were lucky enough to grab themselves an ASOS Marketplace exhibitors stand at Clothes Show Live 2013 selling their 2013 Collections, with my photography and imagery all displayed for all to see! Also granting the girls and I a spot in the Clothes Show Live 2013 Program showcasing Major London 05, featuring my Photography.
Another of my Major London favourites was their AW13 Collection featuring my amazing Boxy Reverse Tiger Stripe Crop Tee no longer available to purchase as its a past collection but it give you an idea of how fabulous past Major London 05 collections were and the fluid link in style to past and present collections.
With my Major London 05 Boxy Crop Tee that is a gold on black colouring statement piece is an item you can style in many different ways. Over a skater skirt, over your favourite jeans, or simple like me with a pair of high waisted leggings.
Major London 05 keeps there styles very similar which I love because it means past and present seasons are recognisable to the brand and consumer keeping the Major London 05 brand strong. In their pieces menswear or womenswear the sleeves are usually longer than your normal tshirt sleeve which I love as it's flattering and keeps fluidity with the menswear and womenswear collections which allows the unisex wear to flow with the collection as a whole too.
Working with the Major London 05 girls is always a pleasure with fun photo shoot shoot locations, beautiful and talented models and not forgetting the amazing clothes.
Bellow is the first shoot I did with Major London 05 with Model Audrey Krako with their SS13 Collection full of prints, tie dyes, co-ordinates, Body Conn Dresses as well as their fun backpack designs.
The second shoot I worked with the Major London 05 girls for was their AW13 Collection which menswear design I fell in love with!
From textured unisex sweatshirts with contrasting prints, colours and textures in monochrome and black and golds were just fabulous and the perfect present for your boyfriend so you can steal it whenever you want it too!
One of Major London 05's most popular prints and designs is there printed chain mail, leopard and denim style Versace esk designs that's unisex items are perfect for men or women. With lounge pants and crop tops, as well as cycling shorts and sweatshirts.
Major London 05's experimental designs and prints are such a fresh and exciting addition to the fashion industry echoing the 90's with patterns and prints as well as coordinating piece such as the leggings and boxy tee two-piece bellow.
Menswear and Unisex wear also includes fabulous Mesh Designs from mesh vests, shorts, chiffon jackets etc and coordinating with the women wear with boxy mesh crop tops, mesh cut out body con dresses too.
More recently I shot Major London 05's HS14 Collection which featured some popular repeated piece such as their amazing textures sweatshirts and many amazing unique new designs for 2014 too.
Major London 05 also released their first Swimwear collection this year for women which features the most unique and must have swimsuit design in a range of colours, fabrics and designs that're just a must have for the summer holiday suitcase.
We travelled in and to the roof tops of Leicester's industrial buildings to shoot the must have swimwear collection this summer with Model Roxanne Johns which just resulted in the most fabulous images to reflect the amazing swimwear and SS14 Major London designs.
If you're not familiar with Major London 05 by now then I hope you're now familiarised with one of the most unique, individual and original brands that will soon be taking over the fashion industry with their fresh designs and unique prints.
I can assure you theres much, much more to come from this talented sister duo yet.
