My bag collection....








My Bag Collection


Clothes can reflect frumpy and fat days, hair can get greasy or just not "go", shoes can rub and cause blisters…but…handbags. Well, where do I begin with my passion for handbags?


From a sleek leather day bag, to a glitzy swarovski crystalled evening clutch, a handbag is a statement piece which you have to get just right - every time. My personal favourite, Chanel. Coco Chanel is a fashion icon and her creations are the stuff of a legend. Maintaining classic lines and keeping style to a minimum - the Chanel handbag is a sure winner every time. I have 3 in my collection so far which have been collected over the last few years. The classic black is perfect for every outfit, and looks great with a flash of colour - deffo this season!Whereas the nude is more classic, an "investment" I convinced myself at the till (these things are pricy! £££)!!!! It goes perfectly with a lunchtime outfit, but quickly reforms into a glam evening bag with that LBD at the click of a finger.So the Chanel is classic, however my latest new editions are the cherries on top of my cupcake…The black Celine boasts suede finishing and a leather touch…simple yet brilliant - this handbag seems to maintain the "it" status in every category. The Prada is a tad more formal, making it great for those hectic business meetings on Regents Street, but not an evening wear bag. They both finish any outfit off nicely and are top of the trend this season.I have no doubt that my handbag obsession will slow down anytime soon, so keep a look out for my next new purchase! Sssshhh don't tell the bank!

The classic white tee...


I'm a big fan of the classic white t-shirt, from the classic round neck to the daring plunge,  its something that every girl should have in their wardrobe.
What i like about a white tee is it's versatility, it can be worn either very casual or dressed up to look cool and edgy...
Here are a few looks I love above.
When i'm going for a more casual look, i like to twin my white tee with some dark denim jeans and a chunky necklace with a boyfriend blazer to finish off the look.
At night, an oversized white tee with leather trousers and sky high Louboutin's looks subtle but incredibly sexy! Take it to the next level by mixing it up with leather shorts, to show off those tanned pins!
A white Tee is a classic timeless item that i LOVE.....

Disco Pants...




 I treated myself to something that I've wanted for ages, they do come with a hefty price tag of £70 but are worth the money. Disco Pants are American Apparel's famous best selling legging/trouser/pant beauties (think Bad-Ass Sandy), and are not for the faint hearted. They are very high waisted, very figure hugging, but also extremely flattering and are renowned for being able to suck you in in all the right places whilst at the same time showing off curves to give you a really slinky silhouette.
I really love how versatile they are, and can be worn in so many different ways to achieve different looks.
I rocked my new disco pants at the weekend with a white tee and red high top converse....

  1. Pair your disco pants with a simple plain or band t-shirt with rolled up sleeves to give a relaxed, grunge look. I think they'd look really cute with a high ponytail and a pair of scruffy Converse.
  2. Disco pants seem to make everyone that wears them instantly look unique and edgy (even though everyone seems to have them). Paired with either a buttoned up shirt or a loose fitting one, they look really chic and effortlessly fashionable.
  3. I opted for the black pair as I think they look great when incorporated into a monochrome outfit. I particularly love the 5th look with the blazer and bowler hat.
  4. Disco pants are a really great addition to a wardrobe for this time of year, to help with the transition between Winter and Summer
