Parisian Style

When in Paris, designer stores line the streets and nearly everyone has something fabulous on their body or draped over an arm. From the latest Burberry mac to the latest, Valentino handbag and it is slightly depressing (I am not jealous at all, HONEST). A gal has to make the best of what she has; I have the odd designer purchase which is nice to bring a £30 outfit up to an acceptable level in the Paris style stakes.

So I popped down to my fave photo spot at Le Palais Royal and posed till my boyfriend told me he had enough and wanted his own photo. It was a sunny but crisp day and I love this casual outfit, it is a perfect mix of style and comfort with my fave brands. The Zara t-shirt is slightly cropped so it works great with high waisted shorts. My new Lacoste shoes are the perfect shade, a matte, off pink, these on-trend beauties kept me going for over 30,000 steps that day, the cushioned backs were a necessity for that much walking...luxe.  

My Michael Kors backpack was not really big enough for a full day of city sightseeing but it kept all my essentials in. I am also building up my jewellery collection at the moment and got this amazing necklace from a Mawi sample sale for £50 and also a few bits from a new brand called Astrid & Miyu they have the prettiest packaging. And oldie but a goodie is Jewellery Box you have probably seen me feature them a few times now and the price and quality is just amazing with prices from £3 you can’t argue. I have also added a bit of bling with my Links of London watch I would never think of them normally for watches but I just love it and its rose gold, hello!

Lipsy London Love Michelle Launch

Last week I headed to the ever beautiful, like I wish I looked like her, Michelle Keegan and her winter collection launch with Lipsy London. I got myself all glammed up wearing Michelle Keegan's Lace and Sequin Bodycon dress, I felt super skinny in it as it sucks you in and its so glamorous without having your boobs falling about the place as if you look closely the dress there is mesh detail up to the neck. There is very delicate lace detail on the front, sleeves and back, I completed the look with a pair of Primark chunky heels and my Mulberry handbag. As you can see from the photo I should of pulled the dress down a bit, fashion FAIL.

As I explored the collection, they are perfect for the party season and all very glamorous even the coats which I kind of fell in love with especially the Wool Blend Faux Fur Trim Coat, there is literally so many pieces I want although I need to plan places to wear them.

Anyway take a look at my pictures from the event below with Michelle Keegan of course and a few Made in Chelsea celebs thrown into the mix.
