"Roses are red, violets are blue, I find shopping more attractive than you."

-
Halloween ran into Christmas, Christmas ran into New Year, New Year runs into...well a miserable January. When we just think all of these hyped celebrations have passed we walk through town one morning to see EVERY SINGLE SHOP adorned with hearts, flowers, gift ideas for him and her and see through underwear (sorry but it's true)

So being a singleton in the run up to this day that I think is meant to show case how much you love your other half I get to use the excuse that I am going out with myself and therefore I should buy myself a gift and also receive a gift off myself. Two separate gifts that is. Hey if you have to sit through three weeks of it being rubbed in your face that you aren't going to be getting wooed you deserve a couple of presents to ease the pain.

Que my true loves.

Well my true loves of SS16.

Dahlia is one of my all time favourite websites. Based in London it epitomises how I am from the inside out in collections of beautifully girly clothes. After unwrapping numerous Dahlia treats on Christmas day I am now all focused on their new season. And my oh my it has not failed to please.

So the things a girl wants on valentines day?

1. A hug?
A nice warm hug from a nice warm coat.

2. Something sweet?
Bows and pleats are always sweet.

The good thing with not being tied to a relationship is that you can easily flit from place to place. A relationship with online shopping I mean...

When Dahlia can't woo me on Valentines I turn to ASOS.

3. Too be able to wear your heart on your sleeve?
Well chest...chest will do!

4. Something strong.
To drink. 

5. An early night?
In your new Pyjamas!



So with the combination of a touch of online shopping, a few glasses of wine and the complete cut off from any form of social media for 24 hours, all the singles out there can have a pretty brilliant Valentines day! 

*And if that doesn't work...grab your single gals and just get insanely drunk!

xoxo

Seth Cohen was my first love

The last month or so has flown by! As if we are already in July. Terrifying. I've been a bit slow on the blog posts lately, I've sort of felt a lack of inspiration to write about much but something yesterday spurred on my need to write. ALEXA CHUNG IS DESIGNING HER OWN LINE. Yes that is right, our favourite style icon is finally adding to her mark on the fashion world with her own collection.  This got me thinking about how quickly your taste and opinions on everything change. From clothes you like to food you eat. So I thought I would take a look at some of my first favourites I'm talking teenage years by the way this isn't going to be a break down of my first word and hair cut. 1. First TV Addiction - The OC Seth Cohen was my first love. Hands down, his geeky little comments and penguin jumpers were all I needed through the OC. I actually remember it was on every Tuesday night and it was the highlight of the week! Also I mea

Next festive competition

So feelingstylish.co.uk is running a competition for us bloggers to create a Christmas window for Next. All you have to do is simply design your window using next products and submit your entry in a comment on the feelingstylish.co.uk blog. I have done my own entry (I will admit it is hard to create the window and make it look realistic so make sure you explain your concept) My window focuses on a pale colour scheme. It is extremely feminine and not obviously Christmas themed in the way that there is no red or gold to be seen! I chose to use the two glitter Christmas trees as features as they are adorable! I would actually have the fairy lights on the left wrapped through the branches of the trees for a more whimsical feel. I have then chosen two party dresses. Seeing as party season is all about the sparkle I chose to pale pink numbers both embellished beautifully with sequin. They are both quite loose fitting and therefore PERFECT for when you've eaten a bit too

Money vs Style

As I sit here next to my best friend searching Amazon for a cheap pot of OPI muppets collection I can't help but wonder if having more money makes it easier to be more stylish?  Think about it..... Being a student means I am poor 99% of the time apart from my birthday or Christmas. Luckily for me it is my 21st birthday on Sunday and therefore had the luxury of having over 200 pounds to spend on of course clothes! Although I wanted my Mulberry Bayswater for my birthday I was EVEN more over joyed to unwrap my beautiful Michael Kors rose gold watch off my parents. (partly because it is extremely shiny) but mainly because this is the first truly expensive item I have really owned. The first thing I know I will keep for the rest of my life.  So does money make you more stylish? Look at celebrities, they are always the ones captured and photographed for the style pages of magazines, so why not photograph normal people? I know that people are not really interested in those "normal
