Best dress! Thank you Nan <3 See post on it here

Hello everyone! I hope you all have had a fabulous Christmas and are enjoying all your presents. Here's a few snaps- as you can see I was truly spoilt and I had an absolutely wonderful day. For my Christmas eve outfit I'm wearing a Topshop skirt, Primark necklace, H&M top and Faith leather peep-toes. On Christmas day I wore a green and gold dress that I've had for a while from River Island. I really should have taken a full length picture in it, but the only time I had was after dinner and I was looking rather barrel-esque haha. I had some amazing presents- My boyfirend got me the Marc by Marc Jacobs Rose Gold Baby Dave watch (aptly named after him) which I absolutely adore and haven't stopped wearing it, I think its the most luxurious thing I've ever owned! I think the turquoise goes so well with the rose gold, every part is so detailed I couldn't have asked for a better present. My mum and dad got me the Cleatas, my god aren't they pretty?! I've been wanting them for so long and I can't wait to wear them, I'm sure they will be making many more appearances on here! They also got me a lovely faux fur cowel that I haven't pictured and some of that insanely wonderful amount of benefit make up. I got the beautiful Gabby Motel Dress from my nan as well as a beautiful gold bracelet that I am yet to do a post with. My best friend works at Benefit so thanks to her I received such a fabulous array of new beauty products from herself & my parents- a Benefit-heavy beauty post is coming this way soon! All in all I had a lovely day and got some amazing presents, if anyone has a Christmas post up be sure to link me in a comment- I'd love to see what you all got!

Hey! Just a quick OOTN post for you lovely lot. Finnalllly I have my Gabby dress after months of lusting after it and I wore it last night for a night out with my girls. So many people came up to me saying they loved my dress, quite strange but if your going to go out looking like a walking Christmas tree you'll be bound to turn heads! Is the most amazing fit and I love the plunge back- so flattering. The Gabby has been such a popular dress at Motel this season, check out the other colours here! Also you'll see featured are some awesome temporary tattoos from Inkwear, I've worked with them previously at Motel so had my eye on a few designs for a while and I'm delighted with the way they turned out. I'm seriously thinking about getting them for real now, its such a great way to try designs out for anyone that's umming and ahhing about getting a tattoo and also if you just want them for a night out. Massive thank you to mega babe Sophie and Inkwear for sending over these beautys. Hope your all enjoying Christmas celebrations like I did last night! xx

Primark coat & jeans/ H&M shirt/ Topshop boots via next2nowt

Hey guys! Hope you're all well and feeling fabulously festive. This weekend I've been Christmas shopping and at my boyfriends family party, so this morning I thought I'd take advantage of the glorious winter morning sun at his house! As you can all see I've had some highlights, I was getting a bit bored of my ombré so decided to go all blonde again- I'm still getting used to it but I'm happy with the change, what do you guys think? I got this new jacket last week from Primark believe it or not! I'm quite a big fan of black jackets and I''ve been looking for a lightly warmer one recently so was delighted to find this beauty for just £25! It has an unbelievably soft cream faux fur collar which looks great paired with the quilted sleeves and gold zipper. The body is also very warm, one of my favourite winter jackets for sure. I've also recently been reunited with my long lost denim shirt, after months of my brother pinching it/losing it, and think it goes just perfectly with my new coat! And how snazzy are my new ankle boots?! I discovered Next2Nowt after seeing that Shope  from London's Closet bought some Topshop boots from there and thought I'd take a look. Essentially they take imperfect items from high street stores such as Topshop and sell them for a lot less! I recognised these boots as Topshop straight away as I'd been lusting after them instore, but with a £70 price tag they were a bit out of my budget! So when I saw them on Next2Nowt for just £25 I couldn't resist! You also get a 10% off welcome discount with was an awesome added bonus. When they arrived I noticed a tiny bit of wear on the soles and two or three missing studs, but for £45 less I couldn't complain. I would totally reccoment this online store to anyone who wants to save some £ and aren't fussed about the odd imperfection! (see bigger photo below!). Until next time xx

Intern Outfit

 I Candy faux fur head band/ Primark jumper & belt/ River Island skirt & bag/ New Look creepers/ Marc Jacobs Daisy solid perfume necklace

This is just an outfit I wore on my intern day at Motel! Seeing as Selina & Sophie are bloggers too we decided to take these on our lunch break! I've been waiting until its December to wear this headband, I think its so festive- my boyfreind called me Mrs Santa haha. It really keeps my head super warm in this freezing weather and lets be honest, who doesn't love a bit of faux fur to glam up any outfit?! The PU leather effect on my skirt is starting to wear off because I'm wearing it so much, I'll have to invest in a new one soon, does anyone have any good recommendations? I was also wearing my black leather jacket so there's nothing like a bit of neon to brighten up the look! This jumper's only from primark but I have to say it's serving me well this winter. I always forget about my cute Marc Jacobs Daisy necklace so thought I'd give it an outing. It has the solid Daisy perfume inside and it's lasted so well, I bought it on a plane nearly two years ago now! Hope you're hall having a fabulous weekend!

Motel Babes Selina & Sophie!

DIY Riding Pants

DIY Riding Pants/ Zara Jacket/ Topshop Shirt/ Urban Outfitters Collar/ Vintage Beads & Bag/ Jeffery Campbell Lita Boots.

Say hello to my new favourite pair of trousers! I've been lusting after the American Apparel riding pants for quite some time now but they're a bit out of my price range, so when I found an old pair of jodhpurs I was so happy when I realised they still fit! I just unpicked the patches on the inner leg and they're good as new- I'm really happy with them and so pleased I didn't spend all my £ on some brand new ones! I really love the colour as well- navy is always a great colour this season. I paired it with my sheer shirt, I've recently really loved collar detailing so I put my lace collar on with it and doubled up a couple of long beaded necklaces. They're so old, my nan gave them to me when I used to play with her jewelery as a little girl, I think they bring a little festivity to my outfit! I wouldn't usually pair black with navy but the black button on the trousers kind of helps tie it all in. Hope you're all having a lovely week so far!

Pink Maxi

Topshop Sheer Shirt/ Primark Jumper/ I Candy Skirt/ H+M Bralet/ Vintage Bag/ New Look Creepers

Hiya lovlies! Hope you're all having a super weekend. Thought it was about time for an outfit post, this is what I'm wearing out for lunch today with the family. Finally I've used this maxi in an outfit post, some of you may have seen it in my instagram post a few weeks ago. It's from my mum's boutique in Bristol called I Candy, make sure you check out her online shop, they have it in black here. It's such an easy skirt to wear for the AW, it looks great with a jumper or shirt and I also usually wear it with my leather jacket. But it's also great paired with a crop, I know I look slightly ridiculous wearing it in this weather but the lace bralet looked so cute with it I couldn't resist wearing it! I wore my sheer shirt underneath for an extra bit of warmth and think a collar with a jumper is always a classic look. Until next time :) P.S excuse my zombie like face in the second photo!
