Hey Beauties!

Now that Winter is upon us with the much anticipated festive season creeping ever closer, there are many couples out there that will be getting inspired by the romance of the Winter season and will be getting either engaged or married.
This made me think that you guys might be interested in seeing what affordable dresses are out there that won't make you sacrifice style.
CocoMelody are a website that I've mentioned on here before and I'm definitely a big fan of their designs.
Expert dress makers for the past 15 years, this brand was inspired to help brides-to-be find their ideal dress that was both high in quality and low in price.
Operating under the simple idea that every bride should have the dress of their dreams, no matter what her budget is.
Initially starting with wedding dresses, they have since expanded and offer everything from bridesmaid dresses to special occasion dresses.
Offering a customization service also, you're sure to find your perfect dress whether you're looking for a vintage number or at their vast array of beach wedding dresses.
They take their inspiration from the fashion trends of the world and the top wedding fairs to deliver a quality product to brides everywhere.
Whether you would like your dress to feature silky satin or elegant lace, they offer a wide selection of quality fabrics that are imported worldwide.
Feast your eyes on some of their designs!

 I love their collection of 2016 wedding dresses, they're just so high end and elegant looking.
I love the amount of diversity in their collection, if you want to walk up the aisle in a dramatic floor sweeper or want to embrace years gone by in a vintage lace number, then they have the dress for you.
My personal favourite would have to be the strapless dress, the material looks beautiful and it makes the waist look tiny so it's super flattering.

CocoMelody are having a sale campaign at the moment so be sure to check out the website so you can grab yourself a bargain for your next special occasion!

Hey Beauties!


I know we're not all loving the colder weather but I'm actually looking forward to the new Winter launches popping up and incorporating the latest trends into my wardrobe. 
Don't get me wrong, I know it's important to stay true to your own style and not to blindly follow trends, but I think it's fun putting my own spin on the latest looks. 

I thought you guys might also be excited to see the latest trends inspired by the various fashion weeks so curl up and feast your eyes on what to expect for this season!

1. Boho
Possibly the most popular high street trend to come off the catwalk has been boho, the true seventies revival that happens every few years or so. 
Even though it's Winter, maxi dresses are featured and given a boho twist with a teal and olive colour palette and teamed with little waistcoats. 
This trend is all you need to channel your inner Kate Moss, think flared jeans, paisley print galore and cozy ponchos and you're on the right track. 


2. Victorian
They say if you hold on to anything long enough, it will come back into style eventually and that is definitely true this season. 
The Victorian Age has given plenty of inspiration to designers this year with a beautiful Gothic glamour flowing down the catwalks. 
The Victorian Age was known for feminine details and delicate fabrics and not to mention an abundance of frills which have also been included believe it or not. 
If you're not in the mood to cover your outfit in frills, then you can subtlety try this trend with a piece like a ruffled blouse or sheer fabric. 

 

3. Military
One of my favourite trends and possible the easiest to incorporate into a working wardrobe is Military chic. 
Green and taupe are still strong with this trend but I'm noticing a lot of stone pieces which should take you through to the warmer months too. 
I adore the military inspired coats, they're a great mix of function and fashion with the button detailing hitting this trend on the head. 
 Khaki jackets are still going strong this season and tailoring does also play a part, just try a cropped pair of trousers instead of your usual length to add a military edge to your look. 


 4. Code Red
Of all the shades sashaying down the catwalk, red was certainly the colour that was grabbing the most attention and with good reason. 
Red is the ultimate colour for the confidant woman and, with all the different hues on offer, it can take you from the office to the bar. 
If you're too shy to rock top to toe red, then simply try a red accessory like a waistcoat or handbag so you will still have a pop of attention. 
Camel is another shade that is huge this season and it luckily goes great with red so team some camel heels with a red dress for your next date night!


5. Faux Fur
Fur was all over the catwalk this season and, thankfully, the high street has plenty of faux options so that you can rock this trend with a clear conscience. 
Shearling caught everyone's attention last February and has been adorning handbags and accessories ever since. 
Fur coats will play a huge part and will also be huge in design, very over the top and bulky, which I love but may not be to everyone's taste. 
If you don't fancy looking like a bear this season, then simply opt for a coat or accessory with fur accents. 


So there you have it, that's my round up of some of the trends that you can expect to see this season!

Hey Beauties!
 
 
Over the past year or so, I feel like workout wear has become such a fashion statement with many people taking pride in their workout looks.
The days where people threw on any old clothes to work out in are going fast and many brands are taking note of this.
Nike of course are one of the main workout brands that gym goers are sporting and they are leading the way when it comes to functional yet fierce workout wear.
 
You guys know how obsessed I am with online shopping and I'm all for anything that can make the process easier, especially when it comes to shipping costs.
That's where Us_GoBuy comes in!
 
They offer lots of services from offering a free US address so that you can order from the US Nike website, handling your packaging free of charge and, if the Nike doesn't accept your type of credit card, Us.Go.Buy will pay the fee for you and you can simply pay them back through your preferred payment option.
They really do everything to ensure that you have the best shopping experience.
 
Here are some of my favourite Nike pieces that you can get through the UsGoBuy website!

Hey Beauties!


I hope you guys have a great August, can't believe how fast this year is going!
It's time for another installment of the Week In Fashion series!
This week has seen some fashion home runs so curl up with some tea and enjoy!


Rochelle Humes kicked the week off on the right note with her chic and sophisticated look while leaving an X Factor photo shoot in London. 
Wearing a fringe lace skirt from Self Portrait, Rochelle certainly embraced that vintage feel and teamed her skirt with a nude simple top. 
It was her shoes that nailed the look however, a classic blue Manolo Blahnik, which are of course the shoes made famous from the first Sex and the City movie. 
I am in love with these heels and they simply make the look!


Model of the moment Hailey Baldwin jumped at the opportunity to show off her killer legs in a short black number at the premiere of the new Mission Impossible movie. 
From the label Elizabeth & James, she accessorized with an on-trend pair of lace up heels and a slick of red lipstick, ensuring that the dress was center of attention. 


Khloe Kardashian gave us all a lesson in off duty chic when she strutted her way into a bustling LAX airport. 
After all the hype following her recent shoot for Complex magazine, Khloe opted to keep her assets under wraps in a chic tan coat, fedora hat and ever present sunglasses. 
She added a little statement to her casual look with a pair of Gianvito Rossi suede knee boots, a beautiful designer addition to any A/W look. 


Another heavy hitter in the modelling world, Kendall Jenner, made a classy yet sexy statement in a revealing black outfit while out and about in Los Angeles. 
Her statement crop top was certainly racy and she further accentuated her model figure with slim fitting black trousers. 
She continued to make a statement with her accessories combining gold heels with a wide, gold-buckled belt for the ultimate in off duty chic. 


Lastly, reality TV regular, Stephanie Pratt, embraced the Summer spirit while enjoying some family time with her brother Spencer and his wife Heidi.
Plenty turned up to support Stephanie as she hosted the launch of jewellery brand MeMe London in Los Angeles and the LA sun certainly agrees with her. 
 She showed off her beautiful tan in a feminine blue shift dress with floral embellishment while adding an extra pop of colour with her bright orange strappy heels. 
I also loved the slight touch of boho to her look, coming from her turquoise necklace and various beaded bracelets.

Hey Beauties!


I've decided to start a new series on the website where I'll be looking at the fashion highlights of the week, every week. 
I love drooling over various celebrities and their fierce fashion choices and I know you guys do too so come on, let's drool together! (you know what I mean...!).


The selfie queen herself, Ms. Kim Kardashian West, stepped out in Paris at the start of the week sporting an Isabel Marant quilted jacket teamed with a bodycon skirt and nude strappy heels. 
Kim has been favouring a more revealing style for this pregnancy, proving that maternity wear can still be sexy. 


Cheryl looked her usual flawless self at a recent X Factor audition wearing a patterned shift dress from Miu Miu. 
Teaming this with Sophia Webster satin pink sling back heels, she seemed in good spirits despite recent controversy over her somewhat dramatic weight loss. 


I am adoring Kourtney Kardashian's new style ever since her split with Scott, it's as if she is finally happy with her post baby body and I'm sure Scott is now kicking himself!
Her latest fashion home run saw her showing off her killer legs in a beige shift dress teamed with fringed boots and obligatory Celine bag. 


Kate Hudson stood out from the crowd at the recent environmental foundation gala thrown by Leonardo Dicaprio in St. Tropez. 
She showed off her stunning figure in a daring black dress from Julien MacDonald's A/W 2015 collection and I love the overall look. 
Everything from the sheer, sequinned skirt to the cutaway detail of the bodice showed off her figure perfectly and she looked amazing in my opinion. 


Nicole Scherzinger went for a full on sexy look at a party thrown to celebrate the designer Michael Costello while wearing the designer himself. 
Her risque snake print dress showed off her gym honed figure and had a backless feature that further ensured all eyes were on Nicole. 
She paired her dress with glitter heels and, as her dress was so eye catching, she went with a natural summery make up look and relaxed hair around her shoulders. 

Lastly, at the end of the week, all eyes were unsurprisingly on JLo at her 46th birthday celebrations. 
In the best shape of her life, she decided to flaunt her hard work wearing a custom made dress by the Los Angeles brand Bao Tanchi.
Featuring plenty of cut outs and mesh detailing down the side, it was definitely the sexiest dress of the week by far and totally the look of the week!
