NEW IN // ZALANDO BAG
As most of you know I’ve been having a huge wardrobe cull over the past few weeks, with so much stuff ready to go up on my eBay, but I still can’t help myself when it comes to buying handbags! Saw this amazing leather tote on Zalando for a mere £75 and I had to treat myself. Reminds me so much of the Celine Cabas tote that I always used to rave on about, but with an added touch of faux horsehair on the side. Better yet, it’s HUGE which I absolutely love as I can fit all of the my useless stuff in it and not have to worry about breaking the seams.

SHOES // UNDECIDED
A few weeks ago I went up-country to do a bit of manager training for the beauty counter I work on. Living 5 hours away meant I got up early and arrived early with about two hours to spare, so obviously I found myself shopping for the majority of it. I took a stroll into H&M and saw these flatform jelly shoes on sale for just £5! I kinda loved them, I kinda hated them, but I knew I’d probably regret it if I didn’t get them. A few weeks later and they still remain unworn, purely because I still don’t know my opinion on them, so to help me out, what’s yours?
NEW IN // CHEAP AS CHIPS
Okay so I’m pretty sure this blog now only centres around new jackets that I keep acquiring. I can’t help myself. I especially couldn’t help myself when I saw this woollen moto jacket for sale on H&M’s webshop for a mere £25. Reminds me so much of the oversized Acne jackets that I’ve been lusting over for years, but at a ‘slight’ fraction of the cost. I bought it in the size up to make sure I get a really oversized look, which I’ll show you all soon. (I’ll get back to proper outfit posts soon - I need some good lighting in my room first! It’s way too cold to do my usual outside posts now.)
NEW IN // ROMWE WAISTCOAT
Wow, I seem to be doing a lot of ‘New in’ posts at the moment. Guess I’ve gone a bit shopping crazy! Just a quick detail post on this amazing waistcoat I received in the mail from Romwe the other day - how cool is it!? After wearing my black one to death I decided it was about time I ventured into colour, so I opted for a very dark, almost black (but not black) navy colour instead! So happy with it. And yes, that is a crop top I’m wearing. And yes, I remember saying how much I hated them for weeks on end. And finally yes, I am a hypocrite…Or at least a very easily swayed human being.
You can find the waistcoat here for just $48.99!
NEW IN // BASEBALL TOP
A few months ago I saw the gorgeous Sandra sporting (ignore the pun) this gorgeous StyleStalker baseball top and I knew I had to have one myself. Simple enough to be worn on a day off yet edgy enough to build a whole outfit around. Seriously comfy too!
NEW IN // LAMPS AND LOAFERS
Sorry for the god-awful blogging lately! I’m still suffering with the flu and have barely been able to get out of bed let alone find something to write or show you all. I’m slowly on the mend now though and after a week off I’ve decided to really focus on my blog from now on, as I seem to have been neglecting the poor thing lately. Stayed tuned.
Anyway, here are a few new things that arrived in the post this week. On the left we have a look at one of my new desk lamps that give me a really industrial vibe and on the right we have my brand new patent loafers! My old ones got completely ruined after being worn almost every day at work, so when I saw look-a-likes for next to nothing (£16 I think?) I had to have them. I might have to get a back-up pair too..
GIVEAWAY // LFW GOODIE BAG // CLOSED
It’s been just over a week since I got home from London Fashion Week and since then I’ve managed to score a few bits and bobs to giveaway to one of my lucky readers in this stylish Mulberry for LFW tote!

BACKSTAGE // MARK FAST SS13
So, funny story - although a few of us received invitations to the Mark Fast SS’13 show, none of us actually made it inside the venue to see it. After the Burberry show a ton of photographers, buyers and bloggers hopped into the BFC shuttle busses and set off to Somerset House to see the collection. Everything seemed to be going fine until we realised the driver had no idea where they were going and made us all miss the show! Feeling a bit pissed, we decided to sneak our way past the massive security guards and into backstage. Ten times the fun.
LFW // DAVID KOMA BOOTS
Without a doubt the sickest shoes seen during Fashion Week! A quick passing of the David Koma exhibition stand resulted in a 20 minute conversation with a gorgeous Russian girl that mainly consisted of me saying ‘Oh my God look at those shoes’ and her politely smiling at me like a nutcase. If the shoe fits..
