Maxi and Mesh






Skirt - Primark £8 // Top - Badley Drawn (through Utter Couture) £45 // Coat - Mango £45 // Shoes - La Moda £18 // Bag - La Moda £20 // Chain - La Moda £10 // Sun Glasses - Fendi £115

This outfit is a carefully pieced number which would be my persona choice to wear for a nice meal out or a couple drinks out. It's sleek and shows skin in the right places. 

I am obsessed with maxi skirts, especially in the summer as a daily essential. But this skirt has hardly made it out this winter so I basically built this outfit around my skirt so I had an excuse to wear it. It's my favourite piece in my wardrobe and it's from Primark.. yes PRIMARK!! Cheap and they look good, so why not. Along with me being obsessed with maxi skirts, i LOVE mesh. This mesh crop top I have featured on my blog before but it fit perfectly with this outfit, keeping the class but showing that bit of skin.
Out of my three winter coats this year, this jacket is my favourite because it's black and goes with everything I own. It transforms any outfit to a classy outdoor outfit fit for winter. I also have a thing for long jackets which is a big trend this winter especially. The best thing is that it was on sale, love you Mango.
Obviously I have worn my new favourite heels from La Moda with this outfit. For so long I have wanted a pair of heeled sandals like this so a massive thank you to La Moda for being amazing as always! I also must credit them for this gorgeous deep purple bag, so elegant and vintage. I was in London on Saturday at the Indonesian embassy with my mother and a few other people and i made my first public appearance with this bag, I think I have fallen in love. I had also bought matching lipstick by Seventeen.

The main inspiration for this outfit comes from the style queen Rihanna. I always have my eye on her fashion. When I put this outfit together I had these two outfits RiRi has worn which have stuck in my mind. The
 shoes, the split leg, the jacket and the crop are shown by Ri are different aspects of these outfits, and cost a lot
cheaper.

Christmas Party




Dress - Motel £58 // Shoes  - La Moda £18 // Bag - Vintage Shop £3

 Christmas work party? Well, Motel is certainly the right place to look for a festive glitzy outfit to stand out on your night out. This white sequin Gabby dress that the wonderful team at Motel sent me is definitely a dress for the festive season; the whole dress just looks pretty like snow. 

I teamed this dress with a gorgeous pair of heeled sandals from my favourites at La Moda. And yes they stock shoes now, how exciting!!! A simple black pair of heels makes sure all the focus is on the dress. I have never worn a pair of heels like these before and I have always thought they would be uncomfortable but these are fit to comfort. Simple, comfortable and not to forget, elegant. 

My next choice of accessory was this cute little black sequin clutch with the chain strap. I actually found this in my mums wardrobe but my god I would not have guessed it at the price she bought it for, what a bargain!!!

Silver







Aside from gold, we have silver. Silver gives you something that gold doesn't. Silver is delicate. Silver is calm. Silver is extremely pretty. I don't tend to buy silver but when this gorgeous little package arrived from Euphoria creations, I was extremely happy.

These two necklaces are from their metal pendant collection, the silver Hamsa Hand and the silver Ohm symbol pendant. I haven't had a chance to wear them out yet because they're so delicate and pretty I wish not to ruin them and just protect them forever. But I will one day because they are too gorgeous not to show off.

Euphoria do many types of these metal pendants such as a buddha charm, pentagram symbol, yin and yang, and crucifixes etc. As well as mental pendants, they have a collection of delicately beautiful gem stone pendants which are worth taking a look at. My favourite is the wire wrapped amethyst.

Gold









My jewelry collection dominates in gold. I love gold, and i wear gold jewelry with pretty much everything I own. Here is a small collection of my gold jewelry. The best thing  about all of these is that they are all from the wonderful LaModa. LaModa are an online company who started off just selling stunning bags at good prices, which is why they attract so many customers. They have now expanded to selling jewelry, accessories and now even shoes. As this company grows, each set of stock they get becomes more and more stylish, so they are definitely one to keep an eye out. Perfect for Christmas presents for the ladies.

The rainbow set is a favourite of mine. It reminds me of sherbet and is so pretty, perfect to wear with an all crisp white outfit. The triple chain necklace and bracelet is my most worn set. I wear it with everything really, mostly an all black outfit and gives it an edgy look. I wore the big  black and gold necklace in a previous blog post and I think it's a gorgeous statement necklace definitely made to stand out. Last but not least, these beautiful earrings in the style of versace are my all time favourites. I have had them for a while now and wear them almost everytime I go out.



The quality and design of these beauties do not reflect on their prices, so I advise you to have a look at all their jewelry. Lots of new stock and affordable prices.

Winter Chic


I find winter difficult to differentiate each daily outfit. This year I have two winter coats, a grey boyfriend coat and a camel trench coat, so there was a real struggle. My prayers were answered when I found this beauty of a coat buried in my mothers wardrobe (I don't know the origin of this coat, it was bought around 20 years ago). Hounds tooth is one of my favourite black and white prints. It's so classic and vintage and it fits perfectly well with my winter wardrobe. I ventured out in town with this outfit. Ideally I would have gone all black but I had no black bottoms that weren't in the wash, but white does it justice as well I think.
