Monochrome Wedges at ASOS • Pick of the Week

asos: pia wedges, £55 (buy here)

Along with every other woman on earth, I adore shoes of any form, but I tend to have more of a soft spot for heels which is odd because I rarely can be bothered to wear them, despite the fact I own over a dozen pairs and can walk in the highest of heels perfectly fine; you could say they are going to waste but  don't you worry, they are in a very loving home. This week I've tried to steer away from my usual pick of the week choices with these monochrome wedges from ASOS (buy here) and although I fear these could be quite dangerous to walk in, aren't they just fabulous?!

Week in Photos No.54

Can you believe it? I have hit a years worth of Week in Photo's posts! The past week has seemed a little dull due to the jam packed last coupe of weeks, but it's been good nonetheless. On Wednesday I went to the gym for a Zumba class in the morning followed by a trip up to London to view the New Look AW13 collections (view post) and then I did a spot of shopping in American Apparel as I had a top to exchange, so it was a very busy but productive day. I've been a member of La Fitness for a just over a week now, I have already been to a few classes (legs, bums & tums, water aerobics and zumba) and been to the gym a couple of times - so far I'm lovin' it!

Polka Dots & Cream • Outfit Snippets

1. primark: cream jumper (buy similar)     2. american apparel: nail lacquer in l esprit (buy here)    
3. topshop: cut out boots (buy similar)     4. topshop: polka dot jeans (buy similar)

After having an amazing weekend of sunny weather a couple of weeks back, it's become rainy and cold again which is why I opted for the jumper, skinny jeans and boots combo because you can't go wrong with that. These polka dot jeans from Topshop are one of my favourite pair of skinny jeans (and they have a lot of other pairs to compete with) because not only are they just so darn cute, but they add a point of interest to an otherwise simple outfit.

New Look AW13 Preview

I was kindly invited to the New Look AW13 Press Event that look place in London yesterday and I have to say I was very impressed, not just with the clothing but with the overall event. There were tons of adorable bobble hats, textured knits, ankle boots and boyfriend style jackets which are right up my alley, along with monochrome collections with bursts of cobalt blue and red; bold prints including leopard and geometric; details such as studs, spikes and faux fur. In my eyes, New Look have really turned a leaf within the past year and I'm lovin' a lot of their design. I hope you don't mind the mass of photographs and you enjoy the video I made to go alongside this post!

ASOS Haul

My obsession over smock dresses seems to have escalated this year and a recent order I made from ASOS is living proof of this - the other week I couldn't help but do a spot of online shopping and I had subconsciously picked out ALL smock dresses. I posted a sneaky preview photo on Instagram of my order which resulted in a ton of you asking for an ASOS haul, so guess what? here is the haul video so many of you were asking for!

Week in Photos No.53

I had such an awesome week and it was mainly because I saw Douglas for a long weekend and again the following weekend  - I haven't seen him that much since the Christmas holidays. On Friday 3rd he called me to say he had the next four days off work and would I like to come visit, so obviously I grabbed that opportunity. I got to have a look around his new work (where he lives as it's a outdoor centre) and we pretty much had the place to ourselves, therefore that combined with doing food shopping together and snuggling up watching The Voice, gave us an inkling as to what it is going to be like living together in the future - we both loved it!

April Favourites • 2013

I can't believe we are officially into the month of May and you know what that means don't you, it's time for my April Favourites. Here in the South East we are finally starting to see some consistant weather which seems to be sticking in double figures (touch wood) and I've had my fair share of laughs. Unlike last month where I couldn't think of many things I was lovin' at that time, this month I have loads of items I've been taking note of so that I remember to feature them in the video. Enjoy!
