I need these things in my life!

I decided to refresh my Pinterest account; deleting some boards that I don't use any more and adding new more interesting ones. One is called 'Things I need in my life'. It's full of all sorts of lush clothes, outfits and accessories that will literally make my life complete. I love using Pinterest because it's such a fantastic way to collect all your inspiration and general images that you like into one place and I definitely recommend that you make an account if you don't already have one.

I absolutely adore this coat that one of my favourite bloggers Carolina fromFashion Squad wore. It's so chic and she wears it in such an effortless manner. Click here to check out her blog.

Obviously there are tonnes of shoes that I'm lusting after and these are just a few. My friend has these sandals and they are so perfect, I need to ask her where she bought them. I love this edgy boot from Topshop, I can think of so many outfits that I'd wear them with!

I saw this jacket on Kayla Hadlington's blog from a LOVE press day that she went to and I instantly fell in love with this jacket. I have no idea what I'd wear it with but gosh it's beautiful.

I think this outfit is absolutely stunning. I'm pretty sure that the skort is from Zara and I love how this girl is wearing a sparkly top for daytime, I want both the top and skort!

Chanel Fall 2015

Stylish shoppers walked down the custom Chanel supermarket catwalk dressed in candy coloured tweed coats and bubblegum pink jumpers and leggings, all paired with the fanciest trainers you will ever lay your eyes on. The models sported corset shapes similar to the ones seen in the Chanel Couture Spring show, but they were shown in much easier way to wear for everyday life. Metallic jeans were worn over quilted outerwear embellished with zip details.

Of course  Karl's stunning muse Cara Delevigne opened the show and closed it holding Lagerfeld's hands as they pranced down the runway. Don't you just wish you were them!

I felt overwhelmed by the Alexander McQueen show, not really in a good way. I love the fantasy of the collection, especially styling of the intricately braided hair and the pale faery like makeup. But I was quite disappointed by the clothes. I felt like the appliqueing was overworked looked quite heavy.  My favourite piece was probably the black ruffled dress but it reminded me a lot of a toned down version of the pink dress that Burton designed for the Fall 2012 show. 

I don't know I guess I just have really high expectations for Alexander McQueen and this season and last season were really disappointing shows for me. Lots of people do love what Sarah Burton is doing at McQueen, this is just my opinion.

What do you think of the Paris Fashion Week Shows so far?

Tartan Skirt and Jelly Shoes

It's been sooo long since I've done an ootd post but I love to show off new clothes so I just had to do one!

I'm wearing my new dungaree skirts but I've tucked in the dungaree part, a green slightly oversized jumper with a belt to cinch in my waist. I paired it with my adorable new jelly shoes which I got for just £7.99! Since I got the dungarees and jumper for free yesterday at Beyond Retro, and my belt only cost £3 from a charity shop, my whole outfit only cost £11!!!

Btw I think I'm in love... The Kenzo AW14 show was absolutely spectacular

I love these full Dior New Look inspired skirts and love the shock of such a vibrant yellowy green.  I wish they weren't paired with those printed suits though as I would've loved to see the full effect of the patterns. 

Hint hint, if you want to buy me this coat, I would love you forever. It's one of those things that's so ugly it's really cute... 

I also really like the graphic qualities of the accessories, especially those wedges <3 They kind of look like the same material that my jelly shoes are made of but a way more sophisticated version. 

There were so many beautiful coats at Cèline, I can't even get my head around it. My favourite was definitely that black and slate grey checked duffel type coat. I love Phoebe Philo went back to the laundry bag check that they did a few seasons ago. That blue turtle neck is just amazing, I may have to try to make my own version of it. Over all I loved the simplicity of this collection and how the knits are kind of slouchy and oversized but still really elegant. 

I'm soooo excited for the Alexander McQueen show on Tuesday and omg Nicolas Ghesquière's first show for Yves Saint Laurent! I can't wait to see what he's done.

Free clothes + cheap food = best day ever!

HToday has been the best day I've had in a long time..

Beyond retro, one if my favourite vintage shops, decided for some unknown reason to give away free clothes.  Yes you read write, FREE. I bought two patterned rucksacks, a gorgeous black velvet midi dress, the most adorable denim and tartan dungarees, a short sleeved shirt and turquoise jumper. All for free. I just had to say it again because I steal can't believe that I got all of this stuff for free. 

Afterwards my friends and I went to a bagel shop on brick lane which was so cheap it was confusing. I bought an almond croissant and a bagel for £1.05. Like how is that even real? Doughnuts were 30p, carrot cake was 70p filled bagels for £1.50.

Then I went to my grandparents house were they literally stuffed me with chocolate and biscuits and then gave me £100! I think I've officially won at life

I love living in London...

Favourites from Paris Fashion Week

Balmain

A troop of models walked in a military inspired collection for Balmain wearing army green jackets made slightly feminine withs structured pleats and plaited details. Badass animal prints, sleek back hair and bright oranges and yellows were perfect to show a strong, sophisticated Balmain woman. 

Balenciaga

This was Wang's third season at Balenciaga and I adore him more and more every time he shows. Thick knits and ribbed pullovers featured heavily in this show, Wang wanted to make jumpers special again. Fur snoods and effortless draping made these clothes look luxurious and the modern use of zippers gave an urban edge to the pieces.

Sonia By Sonia Rykiel

Bubble gum pinks, graphic blossom prints and powder blues gave a for a fresh, fun collection. This Sinia Rykiel collection gave plenty of choice for outerwear this winter; from bright blue tartan prints to gorgeously comfortable fur coats. Although there was no real motif throughout the clothes, it didn't really matter. You knew exactly who the client was  and what type of girl would wear these clothes (aka me :p)
