ASOS SALE HAUL UNBOXING
19.4.15
I'm obsessed with ASOS.
All things, everything ASOS.
ASOS is literally the only place I shop online with now, I don't think I could've dreamt of a better One-Stop-Shop!
Last weekend I went to London for the weekend for my best, and longest friend's 20th birthday celebrations.
Having Spring Cleaned my wardrobe out last month, I found that an ASOS wardrobe update was greatly needed for my weekend away, finding ASOS' new Sale was just too much fun!
So I've got a little ASOS Sale Haul for you!
I've become obsessed with Shirts recently, especially oversized shirts.
Stalking ASOS' Shirt Sale and finding this beauty was too tempting.
This ASOS Ivory Shirt is slightly sheer with a gorgeous drop collar and bagging styling, with on trend military pockets and bat wing sleeves.
I fell in love.
I've been craving a new pair of jeans for absolutely ages.
However, I find jean shopping difficult, tedious and very, very long. I cant never find the right pair of jeans, I think I'm quite fussy with fit and fabric so I don't really help matters.
I usually only buy jeans from ASOS, as they're the only ones I like.
But I thought I'd try these Pull & Bear Jeggings and I'm desperate for a legging style pair of jeans I can just throw on all the time.
Although when they arrived, annoyingly they had a strange fit, despite their gorgeous colour and style they just fit awkwardly and I've decided (thank god for ASOS' free returns service) to return them.
But if you know of any stretchy style jeans that fit like they say they should, please let me know!
Next is something I seem to be buying a lot at the moment, shawls, scarves and wraps.
I always like to have a wrap on hand as they're just that perfect accessory you can style up or down and wear with such ease with any outfit!
So I ordered this adorable New Look Knitted Fringed Wrap with my ASOS order and as I don't currently have a black one, this is an essential addition to my collection.
As I mentioned, I've a shirt obsession at the moment, and I don't have many collar-less.
I loved this Vero Moda Shirt for it's collarless neck and lattice strap back.
Simple and easily worn casual or smart.
I thought I'd try these Mango Beige Chinos especially with the shirt and rolled up ankles with a pair of Birkenstocks for a spring/summer feel.
However, again I found these a funny fit and really low rise which is also annoying and unflattering which is such a shame as their an lovely material and I was so excited by the look, but unfortunately had to send these back also.
I've worn my trusty Black Pashmina to death recently.
So I thought it was about time I gave her a little break and bought a new scarf.
What better than an Oversized Fluffy Scarf?
The perfect companion over your favourite coat heading to a meal in the evening or wrapped around your favourite dress as a cute casual addition.
I couldn't resist.
Lastly, a Pair of High Waisted ASOS Leggings.
Usually I'm a religious Primark Leggings kind of girl.
£4 for a pair of seam-free leggings with a gorgeous sheen? I just have too.
But on this very rare occasion I thought I'd treat myself to a pair of pushing the boat out Leggings from ASOS for a change.
They're amazing, I love the feel it's quite different for me.
However, I wish I'd ordered a size down, as they do enjoy the pull of gravity and I'm finding myself constantly pulling them up.
But they are a lovely Legging to add to my overflowing Primark collection.
I've been a huge fan and an extremely grateful Brand Ambassador for Sew Lomax for a while now and I love their unique, fresh and adorable designs!
Sew Lomax are always bringing gorgeous designs and styles to their already amazing selection.
From makeup bags, glasses cases, purses, wash bags and much, much more.
All perfectly embroided with unique designs such as Taxi's, London Buses, Lipsticks and now personalisations too!
But Sew Lomax's newest addition is definitely one of my favourites!
New to Sew Lomax...
I love lipstick, and I love bags.
So meet in the middle with this adorably perfect Lipstick pouch!
Keep all your lipsticks together in one gorgeous embroided bag where you'll never forget where you left them again.
Or, do what I've been doing with my pouch, and use it as a Clutch Bag!
The hottest, most unique clutch bag you'll see on your outings!
It's such a handy size!
That can be used for many functions but is just extra fabulous because it looks like a giant lipstick!
Every girls dream!
The Lipstick Pouch comes in two different lipstick colours, Red or Fushia Pink.
I went for Red, as I'm more of a red lippy girl than pink!
The Lipstick Pouch is only £15.00 for a stunning Sew Lomax embroided special and the hottest bag to make all your friends jealous!
You really should check out Sew Lomax's collections of embroidery perfection, see here.

GAILS GORGEOUS VINTAGE
4.11.14
When I attended Bloggers Love Fashion Week a few months ago I was lucky enough to meet some amazing brands and one of those was the amazing and incredibly unique Gail's Vintage.
Gail's Vintage offers a hugely creative unique range of handmade jewellery using a range of materials, items, textured and colours all combined together to great her one off unique products.
I was lucky enough to receive some exclusive Gail's Vintage products made especially for me, which I am so excited about!
Gail's Vintage collection are perfect statement pieces with different colours and materials combined together they're such interested pieces and are more like art.
Gail's jewellery isn't like you Topshop, ASOS, general high street jewellery each piece is a one off unique piece handmade, using items such as Keyring rings, large pins, pearls, tassels, metal chains, colourful plastic chains etc and many, many other unique materials that make Gail's piece so fabulous!
I received a pair of black and blue tassel earrings, chain mail link necklace and chain mail bracelet.
For this amazing unique handmade trio you need no other statement items in your #OOTD, Gail's pieces are such amazing statements you only need to wear a basic outfit such as a black plain, jeans and tshirt etc to let Gail's Vintage jewellery truly shine and take the outfit by storm and hold the outfit at one with the perfect statement by themselves.
I LOVE my unique handmade Bracelet by Gail's Vintage that gorgeous chain mail and plastic coloured chained are all linked together with Keyring rings, clips, large pins with pearls and jewellery all together.
The unique piece mean it's not like your usual bracelet, this can be opened in many places and worn on your wrist or even on a handbag as an accessory to add that statement aspect to your plain bag.
My favourite bit about my Gail's Vintage bracelet is the large pin, I've always loved vintage accessories and this combination of modern and old accessories and materials combined together to create such unique pieces.
I adore how the pin contains some stunning mismatch jewels and pearls that work in absolute harmony with the other material accessories.
Each of Gail's jewellery designs come with an adorable engraved Gail's Vintage branded tag which is in a gorgeous heart shaped design which I just love!
I wore my trio of stunning unique handmade statement pieces with my turtle neck dress from River Island that is a plain grey fabric which is the perfect time to let the statements make their perfect statement against the plain tone, taking the outfit to a whole new level which would be matched perfectly with a coloured court shoe and coloured clutch bag.
The second piece I received from Gail's Vintage is these gorgeous black and blue tassel drop handmade earrings that are absolutely stunning!
I love the combination of black and blue as a lover of black and monochrome myself I always love adding a pop of colour to my outfits where these earrings are perfect to pair with a blue nail and blue shoe and even a blue tone eyeshadow for the evening look.
The black diamond pattern design piece shouts 20's and 30's design era to me which makes me adore these earrings even more with their vintage feel and perfected with the blue tassel and gold ball aspect, they're the perfect statement earring to wear alone or with the other Gail's Vintage items.
All Gail's items come with a Gail's Vintage branded tag which has a handmade feel about it bringing all the pieces together and emphasising their handmade beginning.
I love this trio as a jewellery set and think the little aspects in each that bring them together as a set is stunning and subtle enough for each as a statement piece to be worn together with the tassel aspects in the earrings and necklace and the chain mail links from bracelet to necklace mean they make the perfect set to brighten any outfit and add that unique fashionable edge.
The third piece is my Gail's Vintage Necklace which I love as it 2 layers which is common in Gail's designs and make them recognisable and even more unique and true to her homemade unique brand.
The necklace can be worn in so many different ways however you prefer it which is another reason I adore these unique pieces.
I love anything with a tassel it brings out the 20's flapper in me from one of my favourite vintage eras and I think it's so clever how Gail's managed to find that happy medium between the old and new in her designs which make them such desirable piece for all tastes.
These amazing handmade designs are just amazing and would make the perfect gift for Christmas too, such a unique set/piece that anyone would be grateful to receive that probably haven't come across such different designs before.
I love wearing mine as a set or piece by piece letting them make their own individual statement. These handmade design are so versatile and just perfect for so many peoples taste and bring tastes and desires together to with their mix of old and new.
Gail's Vintage designs are perfect for that unique jewellery confidence boost with the bright pieces subtled by the various gold and silver tones from the different chains. Each time you look at your Gail's Vintage design you'll see something new you missed before, they're so special.

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.

There's a By My Scarf for everyone, for every personality and style which is why I think these luxury and heavenly design pieces are a must for the Christmas list this year and the perfect gift as there is one to suit everyone.
