As you may already now from yesterdays post, on Saturday I was down at London Fashion Weekend and I got to attend two fabulous catwalk shows. It was such a great experience and not gonna lie, I got such a buzz from watching those models work their stuff in those fabulous outfits...I wanted to jump up their with them!

The first show I went to was the Henry Holland Designer Catwalk. The collection was totally what you would expect, bright, quirky and colourful. There was a kind of 'punk' vibe going on with some of the looks whilst others featured big fluffy coats and scarves. Every outfit was full of colour and pattern and the chunky boots just gave the looks such an edge.






Next, I went to the Very Exclusive Trend Catwalk which showcased all the trends for the coming season. It included animal print, paprika, plum and burgundy tones, the 70s trend and finally, punk. I love autumn winter trends and all of these are trends that I want to get involved in. My favourite piece from the show was this gorgeous black dress that you can see in the photos above - absoloutley stunning! And I also loved the shoes which were included in the 70s looks. Obviously, the 70s trend is here to stay for a little bit longer (fine by me!) and I'm excited to see more of the punk trend coming in... gimme a leather jacket and some tartan trousers asap! 

What do you think of these two catwalks? Let me know down below!

On Friday I headed down to London ready for LFWend and oh my gosh, I was very giddy haha... Despite only going down for like a day and a half, London really took it out of me and I am absoloutley shattered! LFWend for me was a big deal. It was my first fashion weeky experience and my first time going to an event as a blogger. It was so cool to be there and had such a good time. I brought my Mum and best friend Annie along with me and they were the perfect companions and photographers (thanks guys!)...

With my outfit I wanted to stick to my minimal style and monochrome obsession and therefore spent days on end googling images of Kate Moss and Victoria Beckham. After seeing them style suit after suit and looking ever so chic, I just knew I had to try and rock the look. Here I am wearing a gorgeous Tuxe Blazer from Topshop, along with New Look trousers, a Zara blouse, ASOS heels and an ASOS clutch bag. I also couldn't attend my first fashion experience without rocking my classic red lip and hair tucked behind the ears... so I just kind of went with classic 'Me'. The whole look just felt so stylish and chic and that's really what I wanted to go for. I also added my Links of London bracelet and some rings from H&M to accesorise a bit without being too much.

This outfit really sums up me and my blog - super simple and minimalist. I do love the simple things hahaha. The whole day was a surreal experience for me... at one point I had a crowd of people snapping photos of me haha, I felt like a celeb! I really admire the celebration of style and just how so many artistic fashionistas get to come together in one place.

What do you think of my London Fashion Weekend outfit? Let me know and stay tuned for a post all about the catwalks soon too!

Hello you lovely lot! Today I'm bringing you a post all about the lovely brand Little O. I love myself a some dainty jewellery and Little O have managed to supply my need for some pretty new pieces, so here we go!

They kindly sent me three gorgeous accessories, starting with their Silver Hasma Band Ring. This piece is just lovely and I adore hasma hands and what they represent. Anything that symbolises peace and blocking out the bad is my kind of thing. It's so cool that the ring is made up of hasma hands all the way round and I just think it's a kind of piece I've not really seen before. I'll definitely be wearing this beauty to keep the good vibes flowin'.

Then I have the Infinity Chain Chocker, which I love too! I love the chocker trend but as a lover of dainty jewellery, it's hard to find a piece to suit my style. This piece however, is just perfect and is simply beautiful. It's so plain and simple, yet so so pretty and unique!

Finally, I received the Coven Trio Necklace which is a kind of piece I'd never owned before. I've always wanted to try a layered necklace but never bitten the bullet, so when I spotted this beauty, I had to have it. I love the different pendants and the black stone especially suits my look. The layered style really adds a little something extra to an outfit which is nice, since my outfits are very minimalist. It's deff something I'm going to be accessorizing with from now on..

And there you go! If you want to check out Little O then head to their website by clicking here and don't forget to hit them up on instagram too and have a look at their lovely pieces!

Morning all! Firstly, let me apologise for the fact that I should have probably ironed this dress however, when a girl's gotta shoot her blog photos, she's gotta just go for it! Anyway, today's post features another lovely piece from Closet London. You may have seen this piece in my Blogger Haul over on my channel and if you did you would have heard me say that the thing that drew me to this was the colour - ain't it dreamy?

I love the colour grey and this dress just had to be mine! Here, I decided to style it up with just my black Asos heels and a neutral make up look. I thought simple would be best with this dress and yeah, I'm totally diggin' it... Alternatively I would opt for a dark purple lip and maybe grab for a leather jacket and boots to make a more grungy look (might do a post like that soon if I get chance!) Anyway, I love this dress - another gorgeous piece from Closet London.

"Whether you want the killer cheekbones, slimmer nose or more defined jawline, this buildable contouring powder allows controlled definition from a natural enhancement to a stronger finish."

The lovely people over at Rodial recently sent me this contouring powder to test out and I was super excited because I've never ever tried one before. Let me start by saying how gorgeous the packaging is- totally down my alley- and it feels really expensive which I like too. I've been wanting to test out something from Rodial for a while now, so this is super exciting for me.

This powder is very clever and can be used in so many different ways: to contour cheek bones, the jawline, the forehead, the nose and even the eye socket line. It's a cool, grey shade and the pigmentation is great. It's really subtle and definitely does what It says on the tin. The colour is perfect for creating that kind of contour shadow that you need to define areas of the face and I've really enjoyed using it along with my MAC 168 brush.

I find this product to be great for both every day and nights out - totally versatile. If you want to check out Rodial products, I'd definitely grab hold of this!

Good morning, or afternoon, or evening... whatever time of day you are reading this! Today's post is in collaboration with the lovely people at Flora Bodycare. They recently sent me one of their scrubs to try out and oh guys...it's gooooood.

Flora Bodycare are based in Canada and create cruelty free, vegan and 100% natural scrubs and they are just absoloutley fabulous. Also, they're packaging is also environmentally friendly and recyclable, which ticks all the boxes in my books!

I'm absoloutley obsessed with the smell of coffee, so obviously when given the choice between Vanilla & Coconut and Coffee & Hazelnut, I just had to go for Coffee & Hazelnut. The scrub smells absoloutley ah-maze-ingggggg (maybe not to you coffee haters out there, but to me, yum!) and it just makes me feel like I'm sat relaxing in a pool of coffee.. bizarre thought, but you know, I'm weird. I pour some of the scrub into a little tub to take into the shower with me and then grab a handful and just scrub-a-dub-dub all over. Head to toe...actually maybe shoulders to toe. The suggested time to use it for is 5-10 minutes, but I just wash it away once I'm done scrubbing.

My skin is feeling much softer and it has been great for the KP on my arms. I have really sensitive skin and if you read my blog frequently then you'll know I'm a big fan of scrubs for keeping my skin clean and clear. This scrub is definitely up there with my one true love Lush's Ocean Salt and that says a lot!

One thing I will say, is that it does leave my shower a little messy however, it's totally worth it. Plus, you don't need to use it everyday anyway, it's most likely best used once every few days, so that you're not scrubbing your limbs off with your coffee scrub ... that would be a tragic death...

Anyway, definitely go check them out - they are fab!
