A Few New Items That I Got

It’s been a little while since I shared some new purchases and items with you, so I thought I would put this together, as I have some gorgeous new pieces! I will jump straight into the items though so we don’t take up too much time with an intro, so lets get to it! First up is this brand new Casely Purple Marble iPhone Case with a matching Marble Ring. I collaborated with the brand at the most perfect time! My original case that I was using from another brand had smashed, so choosing this gorgeous one couldn’t have come at a better time. I have an iPhone 11, but they do cases for all phones. Casely is a Brooklyn-based premium phone case and accessory brand. It’s American-owned, has a generous charity program, and is committed to helping ensure a more sustainable future for the planet. So not only do they have some amazing designs out there, they are 100% carbon neutral and the cases are also made with 50% recycled materials! I always need a phone ring too as it’s so useful for filming videos! This case is really sturdy and secure, and I absolutely adore the purple marble design. Isn’t it gorgeous? It feels so good in your hand too, which is a must for me! Next up is this new and very cute Jacquemus Chiquito Mini Suede Bag that I purchased from Matches a couple of weeks ago. I had always loved how adorable the mini bags were, and even though it’s super tiny, not even fitting my phone, I love it! It’s more like a belt…

A Versatile Watch For All Occasions

The Search For A Versatile Watch For All Occasions I’ve always loved watches, that’s never been a secret, and I own quite a lot of them! My collection consists of two expensive designer watches from BVLGARI and from RADO, and a lot of other brands like Olivia Burton, Daniel Wellington, Nordgreen etc., so I love a lot of variation when it comes to timepieces! It’s extremely helpful when you’ve got an item for every occasion, whether that’s casual day wear or a more elegant timepiece for evening. We always need glitz and glam as much as we need ease of wear, but what if you could combine both in one? That’s one way to end up with a more minimalist approach to your wardrobe, all while keeping versatility. Something that I have had a lot more interest in lately when it comes to my approach to clothing. One brand I haven’t yet tried is Seiko, and they have a Seiko Grand Seiko watch that has always caught my eye! Of course you can get various designs of this model, but it has a classic, very simple, elegant watch face and you can have a leather strap or a stainless steel bracelet. It has a very minimal design, so you can wear it in the daytime really casually, but given its designer name and higher price tag, it works perfectly for evening too and dressing it up. It is considered to be a men’s watch, but so is my RADO and it looks unisex to me, so I’m never against wearing watches for the opposite sex, or any clothing for that…

How Can I Enhance My Eyes

When you want to make sure your outfit is really well put together, you might want to consider some of the accessories or design choices outside of your standard pieces of clothing that you love. This can help to really round out your look, or even offer a practical solution to some issues you might face. There are ways that you can enhance your eyes, while potentially serving a purpose or making you feel more confident in your appearance. Your eyes aren’t just important for you to be able to see what is going on, obviously. They can also help you to express yourself that much easier to those around you. We often forget about them when it comes to putting outfits together. Those who have eyesight needs may be concerned about whether their usual frames will look right in combination with some of the classier outfit choices a person might choose to make. It can also be disheartening to have dressed up in luxury clothing and shoes, but have to wear the same old pair of glasses on top. However, at the same time, you may require glasses for reading, or even to correct blurred vision. One thing you might want to consider is to purchase a pair of stylish glasses that include your prescription, that you might save for special occasions to allow you to keep that illusion of glamour. You might even want to see if you can source a pair made by one of your favorite designers. I know I personally notice some of the coolest glasses on people who love to make a statement with…

Nordgreen The Unika Watch Review + Discount Code

Nordgreen Minimalist Watches Review + 15% Off As you guys know, I absolutely love watches, so when I heard about Nordgreen Watches, I was super excited to share them with you! I always take my collaborations seriously and this is a Copenhagen-based Scandinavian minimalist watch brand that offers a sustainable watch collection, so I couldn’t be happier to tell you about them! These thin watches are designed by award-winning Danish designer, Jacob Wagner (who you probably know as the world famous Bang & Olufsen designer),  honouring form and function in equal measure. Each of their watches has a different story to tell, while remaining modern classics and extremely versatile! The Nordgreen watch that I have here is the beautiful The Unika Rose Gold 28mm thin watch, with a stunning mesh strap. This one has the incredible white dial, with their simple and minimalist logo, combined with rose gold hands. The extra strap that I chose to go with it is a gorgeous brown leather, with a rose gold buckle, to complement the face. What I fell in love with on this watch the most was the unique and cool way that the strap connects to the dial. It’s a fun design that you don’t usually see on watches, and I fell in love with it for that purpose. It’s tough to add fun and quirky elements to something, while keeping its integrity and remaining a classic, but Jakob managed to do just that! It’s super lightweight as they’re known for their thin watches, and it’s very comfortable to wear. Mesh straps always offer you the ability to adjust the closure,…

Lily Arkwright – A Beautiful Moissanite Ring

I am really excited to be sharing this blog post with you all. I’ve collaborated with British luxury online jewellery retailer, Lily Arkwright, who specialise in engagement rings and lab grown diamonds, to showcase one of their stunning diamond engagement rings. As you know, I only collaborate with brands that I feel represent myself and my blog perfectly, which is why I don’t have many ads as I like everything to be authentic, and this I believe is a perfect match. Even though I am already engaged, I’m happy to show you how beautiful their rings are as I absolutely adore jewellery. I personally chose this Lily Arkwright Macy Oval Charles & Colvard Moissanite Petite Pavé 18k White Gold Shoulder Set Ring, which is set with a 0.90ct lab grown moissanite centre stone, and it’s incredible! The 18k white gold band itself is set with diamonds, so it truly is a magnificent ring to look at, especially in the sunshine, it just glistens and shines in that perfect, magical way. I couldn’t stop staring at it and looking at how feminine and elegant my hand looked with it on. When I opened the ribbon and took the lid off of the box, it just took my breath away. It’s one of those rings that looks stunning with any nail colour, any skin tone, and pretty much any outfit, as I’ve showed you in these photos a more classy ensemble, and a more evening appropriate, bold look. It works perfectly with both of them. This beauty is a solitaire ring that features a Charles & Colvard, Forever One oval cut moissanite…

Crystal Necklaces From Aura By Calum

My Crystal Necklaces from Aura by Calum If you have followed me for a while, you will know that I have a love for crystals. I always have, ever since I was little, and anywhere we went on a day trip, if there was a gift shop, I’d go straight to the crystal section. As I’ve gotten older, my love for them has only grown and instead of just going by how pretty they look, I’ve researched more into their properties as well. When I go on holiday to St. Ives, there’s a little crystal shop there and I go in it every day, it’s so comforting! There’s always something new to add to my collection, and last time I picked up real meteorite. Since I also love jewellery, and I used to carry my crystals around with me (the flat ones fit well inside your bra!) I thought about getting some jewellery with my favourite crystals on, and that’s when I came across Aura by Calum online. I originally found the exclusive pieces on ASOS and ordered a few of the Fluorite pendants (see here) because the stones are so unique, I wanted to be able to get one that I really loved and connected with. I ended up keeping two actually, so the two Fluorite gold pendants you see below, those are the ones I purchased. I reached out to Aura by Calum online to find out more about the brand after falling in love with it, which was when I realised it was started by Calum Best. If you’re in the UK, you will know him as…

Swarovski Remix Collection Review

My Swarovski Remix Collection Review This is one blog post I have been excited to share with you for weeks now! Ever since I saw the Swarovski Remix Collection when it first launched, I loved it. I thought the concept was fun, elegant, and fashionable, as well as versatile, all mixed into one. I actually had a whole lot of fun doing the photography for this as well in my own way, so I’m really happy to share it with you. It’s taken me a little while to build up my collection (remember my wish list?), and I of course want more, but I’m really happy with what I have so far, so I thought I would share this review with you. First of all, I wanted to mention that a few of these pieces were gifted from the lovely John Greed (who you know I’ve loved for years) and the rest are what I purchased myself. But before I get to the review, I wanted to point out that John Greed have an amazing promotion going on right now, so if you’re wanting a few items at once, it makes sense to shop with them! Each bracelet has an RRP of £59, so the deal is: 2 bracelets for £109, 3 bracelets for £149, 4 bracelets for £189 and £40 for any additional ones you want. That’s some great savings and they’re a fantastic reputable store too! What Is The Swarovski Remix Collection? If you’re not familiar with the brand’s most popular and most coveted collection, read on. It was made popular when Swarovski had, Karlie Kloss, Chiara Ferragni,…

MONDAINE SBB CLASSIC WATCH – A Splash Of Colour

Mondaine SBB Classic Watch In Cerise Red Review As you know, I love watches, so when I got the opportunity to work with Mondaine, I jumped at the chance. For those of you not familiar with the brand, they’re a brand that unifies timeless Swiss design with function, form and invention for today, tomorrow and always. They have been in the business over 50 years after being founded in the 1950’s. They decided the concept of using the iconic Swiss Railways Clock as an original timepiece for the wrist was a unique idea, which I think it is, and Mondaine now keep things simple, genuine and in time with the modern world, all while having that iconic face that everyone recognises. It’s always a pleasure to collaborate with a brand that has such heritage and status, so I’m excited to share with you one of their brand new designs, the Mondaine SBB Classic. This gorgeous timepiece is part of the new collection that involves a splash of colour as they have released 3 watches in red, yellow, and blue, featuring their recognisable dial. Mondaine came up with this unique concept by using their classic collection and updating this definitive design with a bold pop of colour. The idea behind this was to inject a true sense of joy to the range, which I think they have captured perfectly. The shades of cerise, sky blue and canary yellow are ideal for making a statement, especially since the straps have a quirky hole pattern on them, blending in the fastener holes, coupled with the tone-on-tone genuine leather stitching. It’s seamless! Each of…
