I am totally hating this cold bitterness that has set in so I wanted to wear something bright to keep my spirits up. I have discovered loads of cool new brands these last few weeks and really wanted to show them off to you. You may know Monsoon as the mature ladylike brand that produces gorgeous clothes, well they have created a Fusion line which includes this cool Bomber jacket. With a metallic style pattern that is modern yet ethic, it’s really comfortable and great for day or night.
Neon Rose are becoming a huge favourite of mine. The brand are still pretty new but they have created some great pieces for this season and S/S 14 looks awesome too. I saw this white top and knew and wanted to get a post done on it. With a futuristic style with panels and mesh in-between, it’s very quirky and is warm enough for the winter chill.
I had never heard of Figghugga before and normally stay well clear of bodycon dresses as I am very curvy but these dresses are very different. With a tight-fitting lycra which holds in your body, these dresses show no underwear lines and are very flattening. Available in loads of bright colours, these dresses are great to layer with and look lovely with this look.
Statement jewellery is always good to wear for winter and I have some gorgeous new designers to show off. Katie Mullally produces some amazing silver and gold pieces and I totally love this stag necklace and it looks great with this outfit. Katie’s jewellery is very good quality and I love that this necklace is real silver so now horrible marks and something that will last me a long time.
To match this Stag, I also wanted to stay with the metal theme and wear this Cube necklace from Shimell and Madden. Made with black Oxidised(and real silver underneath) this necklace is very chic, simple but looks great with a fluffy jumper or cute dress.
I have been a fan of Punky Pins for a very long time and it was great to get the chance to work with them. I have loved this Snow Globe necklace since I saw it and thought it would be great for this Christmas season. With a thick design that gives this necklace a really good quality, I love that the little stars inside actually move around and I am definitely going to wear this on Christmas day.
Rings are key to matching some good necklaces and I love these Double stacking rings from Emma MacLeod. One in Black Oxidised and one in silver, these rings are now my favourites and I love the craftsmanship that has gone into them and the love Emma has for her brand.

Smokey eyes are great for the party season so I thought I would try out Bobbi Brown’s new Smokey eye Mascara and Pacific smokey eye kajal liner. The Mascara really gives your eyes some impact and I love the kajal liner as it comes with a smug tip so you can blend in the eye liner. It’s so easy to use and can be carried in your bag or clutch for an evening out with ease.
I am a huge fan of BB creams and I love Beauty UK’s CC cream version. In a really soft liquid, this foundation was actually a little too light for my skin but was great as it covered any blemishes I am having at the time.
