Bejewel Me

Bejewel Me by brookehvx featuring zara shoes

I have never been the biggest fan of jewelery, when it comes to it, I always employ the motto 'less is more' as with most things. However this bejeweled trend has really got me rethinking my theory. I am Zara's biggest advocate and maybe thats why I am being tempted by all things jeweled as its all I see in their collections recently, but whats not to love? The best thing with this trend is that you can put your own stamp on it so easily, I am not suggesting you have to go as crazy (tacky) as below (trust me that was the intention, promise), however personalising your own clothing with jewels is far easier than you would imagine. All you need is some fabric glue, your favourite jewels, a top that needs a boost and a little bit of creativity and voila!  

Selfridges Elfridges

Couldn't think of a more quaint and Christmassy idea than to have 'Elfridges' helping you with all things Christmas. I am the biggest fan of all merry related, Christmas things, if I could have my way Christmas would be a year round thing that just never stopped. I'm not sure whether its that Canadians just dont start celebrations as early as us or that it genuinely is just celebrated earlier and earlier each year worldwide but seeing wrapping paper in Boots at the very start of October got me a little too excited but also very very baffled. 

I wish these Elfridges were not just in Oxford Street but also running up and down the country spreading their cheer, I cant help but think they would bring that little bit more fun to my weekly shifts.

Instafavs

For those of you unable to avoid my non stop feed of all things instagram (or should I say foodstagram), I am madly and hopelessly obsessed and I will try my hardest to make any image instagrammable, but as snap happy as I am, seeing through the insta eyes of everyone else is equally as enjoyable for me. These photos are just a few of my favourites of the week. From New York by day and New York by night to Manchester Christmas Markets, Paris' Arc De Triomphe, endless Icecream at Sabo Skirt and Chrismukkah with Seth and Ryan. Whether these bring back memories, make me hungry or give me extreme travel envy, they all made my study filled week that little bit more enjoyable. 

Gold Rush

With most things it's always gold over silver for me and recently I have not stopped spotting gold infused things that would be perrrrfect for my christmas list (mum if you're reading this ;)).

The Zara bag is a perfect imitation of the Proenza Schouler bag I have had my eyes on for ages but I think my bank balance would appreciate this purchase more. 

Millie Mack for Prodiga

I don't even try to deny my love for Millie Mack. She is my very own British Olivia Palermo. Her style is effortless, she always looks perfect and not a hair is ever out of place. Her campaign for Prodiga proves this even more so. The Leeds based designer has created a glamorous collection with embellishments in abundance (instantly I'm sold!!) and a selection of lace infused silhouettes which can't do anything but flatter, flatter and flatter some more. The only reservation I have is Millie's long tresses which surprisingly I think she looks better without. I am all for long locks but personally I just don't think Millie needs them.
