TOPSHOP

now with it apparently being the begining of spring/summer even though it is -10
I have come to notice that there is a lot of pastel appearing and well for a girl that has a staple black,grey,cream, metallic moto this is not going to be fun at all,
However!

being an avid spender in TOPSHOP I have come across a few little jems
i do hope all family and friends are taking note as the big 18 approaches next week!
Eeep!

MV

I discovered this beautiful collection of rings and jewels when having a stroll in London near Bond Street. I think it was fate that drew me to this magical place, as I have been searching high and low for the perfect piece of affordable jewellery incorporating crystals silver and gold. Which happens to be what this little shop provides. PERFECTION.
The doll that made these lovely pieces:


'Award Winning Monica Vinader who is always unexpected, always unique and always a touch extravagant.
The jewellery tells the story of a life lived collecting curiosities and stories the world over.'






Sounds good to me.

DEAR SANTA.

Ok, it is officially 21 days to Christmas EEEP!. To say I am a big kid when it comes to Christmas is an understatement.
I adore the smells, the sounds, the glittering lights, the feeling you get when mulled wine hits your throat and warms you to your toes.

The Christmas tree is officially going up next weekend and will take pride of place in our little home. If you like I love the smell of Christmas trees then you might come close to the excitement I am feeling right now. I love thinking of crazy presents for friends with a personal touch, like little homemade Christmas stockings..
Cute, I know.

I am no novice at writing the annual Christmas list, my wardrobe is bursting as the brim alas I still manage to find things I need want.

Being a little shop-a-holic does have its draw backs as I know what I like and what I want and if I don’t like it then I just have to whip out the old 'oh its lovely' come Christmas morning. However I am rather picky if a shop doesn’t give off the right vibe or have the right smell I can but put off in an instant. (I’m a nutter.. I know)

So with this in mind it is rare that I buy myself the simple, but wonderful things like nail varnish, accessories, books, tights, perfume, makeup etc. (All those lovely little things that make Christmas that little bit more exciting knowing that you are well stocked on all of the above for the coming year.)

I did have every intention of solidifying my "I can’t think if anything” slogan while making this little mood board, however it took all my will power to stop adding more wonderful things. (Friends and family take note!!!)

Ok... so my above argument fell flat on its face. I know exactly what I would like to find under the Christmas tree this year.
