Lacoste Black Sneakers | Cloggs

Lacoste Black Sneakers | Cloggs

Comment   

Fortunately, this month I've been able to team up with Cloggs on a collaboration to showcase their wonderful collection of shoes - especially these gorgeous Lacoste Sneakers. 

CLOGGS - home of footwear - offer an incredible range of shoes, both for men and women, including boots, slippers, trainers, wellies, sandals and more. It gets better, not only do they sell a wide collection of comfortable footwear, they also market branded shoes; eg. UGG Australia, Converse, Hunters Wellies and obviously Lacoste. 

I was luckily gifted this beautiful pair of everyday black/white Lacoste sneakers to review and share my honest opinion on. These trainers are super comfortable, similar to Converse, but with an added luxurious touch - the interior is soooo soft. I love how simplistic the overall look of the shoes are; a monochrome pair of sneakers to match almost any outfit. 

Personally, I think they shoes would look perfect in some ripped jeans, a slogan tee and a leather jacket - chic but casual. The exterior of the shoes are extremely durable - there is an added strength compared to average trainers which informs me that these will last for a lengthy period. I cannot wait to start pairing these beauties with some outfits for a future post. 

If you're looking for some fancy new shoes, I would totally recommend checking out CLOGGS - they offer quality shoes with ridiculous reductions, whilst holding constant sales/discounts. Don't miss out an bargain!

Lots of love

What girl doesn't like strutting into a party with mega high stiletto heels (well, unless you're me and occasionally feel like a 7 foot giant)?

Today's post revolves around Online Avenue's insanely high, black suede, golden ankle-strapped heels - aren't they just gorgeous?! I was in awe when I received these and wondered why I didn't own anything like this in my shoe collection.

Itzel Retro Look Heels - RRP £23.99

These stunning high heels can make any girl's dreams come true - I was in heaven when I tried these on and looked in the mirror to see my legs appear longer. I have such short and stumpy legs so this was a huge bonus for me; the 'lengthening' of my legs also made them appear slimmer, another thing that satisfied my needs. Also, something I find with pointed-toe heels is that they can squish your feet but these feel super comfortable at the front and are completely squish-free! My favourite aspect is the golden, metallic strap that hugs at your ankle - personally, I find these a lovely additional touch to a shoe and can really complete an outfit.

One thing I would definitely recommend is to purchase your shoes one size larger than your normal size; my feet were insanely squished in the first pair I bought so I had to return and get the next one up. The delivery and exchange was insanely swift with no time wasting - I had these beauties back in my hand in no time!

I will most certainly be getting the Red and White pair of these retro styled shoes. My other favourite pair of shoes from Online Avenue's trainer collection would have to be their Elyse Lace Up Mesh Running Shoes; the black and turquoise look incredible together and would be amazing for a cheap pair of gym trainers at £14.99.

Autumnal Accessory Lovin' | Miss Milly

Autumnal Accessory Lovin' | Miss Milly

Autumn is just the best season. Everything becomes so much better at this time of year - the fashion/colours are gorgeous, the nights are darker, Christmas is on its way and it's slightly acceptable to wear all my cosy, childish pyjamas from 4pm onwards! Another thing that has got me hyped up this Autumn are the accessories...let's take a look at a few of my fave pieces from Miss Milly.

Autumn leaves are one of the most common reasons for loving this time of year - I mean, who doesn't love hearing the sound of them crunch beneath your feet? Not the mention the array of mustards, oranges and reds as you walk through forests. 

To highlight the beauty of the season, I chose this orange, metallic leaf necklace to wear with each of my beloved knitted jumpers. The elaborately designed,silver-coated veins complement the leaf's warm tone, making the necklace look expensive and unique. This has been my staple necklace throughout October and I couldn't recommend adding it to your collection enough!

This isn't specifically Fall-based, but I thought it was super cute must-have jewellery piece. The love knot bangle is simple, beautiful and a perfect gift for a loved one; it is relatively sturdy and small in wrist size (I struggled slightly to fit it over my hands but is comfortable on the wrist). A great alternative to the pricey Tiffany&Co love knot bangles!

Finally, we have this stunning Purple Resin Ring, new to Miss Milly's online store. If you've been reading for a while, you will know my evergrowing love for large statements rings. This deep purple sparkling edition to my collection is fab for everyday autumnal wear - the ring is easily adjustable and can resized to fit any finger (I always wear mine on my ring or index finger!) Adjustable rings are a huge pro, making them universal for each and every one of you.

Thank you to Miss Milly for collaborating with me and sending me these gorgeous products. All opinions are my own, despite not purchasing them. I am always honest in my reviews!

What are your statement jewellery pieces this Autumn?!

My Jim Kersie Experience | Purple & Gold

Comment   

Deep purple, plum and auburn are colours I opt for when putting together autumnal outfits - don't we all?! Something that has made a statement this year, for me personally, is the use of jewellery equipped with my chosen outfit. Having an evergrowing colletion of beautiful jewellery pieces, both subtle and bold, I have never seen, through my many years of hoarding, a bracelet quite like this one.

Jim Kersie is a Melbourne-originated brand that specialises in phenomenally hand crafted bracelets - each having an element of individuality. Currently, Jim Kersie have 6 unique collections in which you can chose your desired colour/one that is suited to you. With the wide range of products and colours, I'm sure everyone can find something perfect for them..

...and for me...that was this autumnal-screaming piece -

Purple Jasper and 22kt Gold - Phoenix Collection!

I am a enormous purple lover, hence the multiple purple items surrounding my new, beloved trinket. On receiving my product, it was luxuriously encased in a sleek, black gift box and mini leather drawstring bag with the 'JK' intials imprinted in wealthy gold. The packaging extremely impressed me - I feel like packaging can 'make or break' a company's professionalism and respectibility and JIM KERSIE definitely lived up to my standards!

Focusing now on the jewellery piece itself, I was in awe at the array of purples chosen to craft this gorgeous bracelet. It is subtle in size, which is fabulous for everyday wear because it doesn't get in the way or get caught on clothing. I also thought the 'JK' embossed 22kt Golden beads were a lovely touch as well - gold and purple compliment each other wonderfully and add a bold statement to an evening outfit.

10/10 recommend this brand from everything of the warm customer service to the neatly packaged product. This would make a wonderful Christmas gift for your mother, auntie, cousin or friend - especially with the free giftbox included! (There are also some lovely male structured pieces too, so don't forget to check them out!)

Do you change your jewellery during A/W? What colours do you usually steer toward wearing?

If are lucky enough to have gone or been to sixth form like myself, you will know the struggle of planning an outfit every single day. For me, I honestly see it extremely stressful to buy new clothes that fit the 'smart-casual' standard alongside being versatile so you can pair them with other pieces in your wardrobe. Besides this, I haven't yet developed the ability to collate a suitable outfit in the morning so it has become a chore to plan a night in advance.

Anyway, enough of me complaining..let us get onto the outfit! 

Shirt - Wallis (similar here)

Trousers - Primark (only in store, but similar here)

Necklace - New look (similar here)

Bracelet - Pandora

Shoes - Primark

Overall, this look has a sophisticated element to it, perfect for schools that are strictly formal wear. This year, I have become a great fan of patterned trousers and would love to find more that suit me and could wear to school. If any of you know of specific items or shops that sell some, please leave a comment below. Also, I went all out on makeup in this particular look - the gorgeous Eylure 071 lashes came out, implementing an elegant edge. Oh, and my go-to nude lip at the moment is Mac's Mehr!!

What are your favourite fashion pieces of A/W 2015?

Want to know where you can get designer clothing for up to 75% off?! You should probably head over to Get The Label. Get The Label have an expectional range of famous branded products (eg. Adidas, Converse, Nike, Timberland, Lipsy, Pineapple & more!); clothing, shoes and accessories for both women and men. 

Being contacted by such a trusted company was thrilling. then to be told I could collaborate with them and receive this gorgeous Vera Moda dress was unreal. With a swift delivery and my adrenalin rushing, I opened my package to find this...

THE LITTLE PINK DRESS. I'm in awe at how flattering this cute, dusty pink looks against my skin tone. This is honestly the most prettiest and girliest dress I now own and I'm not ashamed of that at all! The material is floaty, falls in little crease-patterns and would be absolutely ideal for formal occasion wear. Honestly, I can just imagine wearing this classy number to a family wedding or out to dinner with my boyfriend.

One of the main reasons I opted for this dress was because of the front detailing; I luuuurve the diagonal cross-over style on the chest; none of my evening attire look anything like this which is why it stands out immensely. Lastly, the laced back of the dress and shoulders add an additional touch of femininity and elegance to the outfit. It looks super pretty paired with a floral headcrown and a deep mauve lipstick. Skater dresses are definitely my go-to when it comes to picking an evening based outfit; they always appear to work best with my figure.

Here's the best bit - these have been reduced on the site to just £9.99! Don't miss out on this wonderful offer; take advantage and click on the link here to look at the product from a different angle. Get The Label have an easily accessible site so you will be able to find whatever you need in seconds!
