Wedding Guest Outfit Inspiration

Images from Quiz Clothing

As soon as Christmas and January come to an end, I feel like spring is already here (it isn't but there's no point to winter after January so can we just skip to spring now?). My mind is now in spring mode and it will be until summer rolls around. I love spring, mainly because it feels like a gorgeous refreshing change from the cold, dull winters we have in England; also from a blogging point of view, light! Glorious, glorious light!

When I think of spring, I conjure up images of wildflowers, blue skies, being able to get dressed without piling on ten layers, garden parties and spring weddings. I'm not going to any weddings this year but next spring I am going to be a bridesmaid so I've been looking at bridesmaid and formal dresses.

Nude Chiffon Embellished Maxi Dress  -  Quilted Tassel Bag  -  Grey Embroidered Maxi Dress  - Gold Metallic Dress  -  Rose Gold Metallic Bag

I love classic styles and natural, metallic and classic tones when it comes to wedding guest dresses, as you just can't go wrong with a gorgeous satin neutral dress with a classic, timeless shape. I think all three of these special occasion dresses would be perfect for a prom, as a wedding guest or even a formal garden party! As a blogger I obviously love the rose gold bag, I mean look at it!

What do you think of my outfit ideas? Have you purchased from Quiz Clothing? Are you looking forward to spring?

Spring Wish List

Images from J D Williams

I know spring is a while away, more precisely it starts in the UK on the first march but as the evenings are getting lighter, there's bird song in the air and spring/summer collections are starting to come around, I feel like winter is slowly coming to a close and I'm already dreaming of my spring wardrobe. Autumn is definitely my favourite season but spring is a close second *wishes for spring to hurry up*. Here's my spring wish list ft. J D Williams:

Yankee Candle Cherry Blossom Candle  -  Joanna Hope Glitter Skirt  -  Denim Longline Shirt Dress  -  Viktor & Rolf Bon Bon Fragrance  -  Curvy Kate Balcony Bra  -  Heart Loungeware Set

Blush pink is one of my favourite shades, especially for spring as it's just so uplifting and colourful without being too colourful! Blush pink skirts, lingerie, loungewear and homeware are on my wish list for spring/summer 2017. Denim is also a great staple during spring as in England it is still a little chilly so jeans, denim or long dresses are so needed and can be so versatile.

Every season I tend to pick up a new fragrance, either from my stash of fragrances or something new; I have had my eye on Bon Bon by Viktor & Rolf for ages as it sounds right up my street with notes of caramel, orange blossom, sandalwood, amber and more, it promises to be a unique and refreshing spring fragrance. This is a sponsored post.

Are any of these products on your wish list? What are your favourite things about spring?

*How To Take Festive Photos

Photography is a massive part of blogging so after blogging for over four years now, bloggers pick up a lot of simple tips and tricks for taking great blog photos and also for social media as well and they definitely come in handy when the festive season come around. The autumn and winter months are awful for bloggers as the darker days make taking blog photos so much harder, especially when it comes to taking food photos! Here are some of my simple photography tips for fantastic festive social media photos:

Use a DSLR

Since I bought my Canon 750D and lenses I've seen a massive improvement in my blog and social media photographs and as it has wifi, I can easily transfer photos from my camera to my phone to edit or share directly on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook - I can't recommend the Canon 750D enough!

Filters & Editing 

However, if you don't have a DSLR, no problem! Filters and editing can make any photo so much better within moments. I love the following apps to edit my social media photos: ColorStory, Afterlight, Polarr and PhotoCollage. I edit or add a filter to every photo I upload to social media, even if it's just to sharpen or brighten. Usually I want bright, white photos but for the festive season I want rich, sumptuous and vivid photos and I find the Clarendon, Lark, Juno and Ludwig filters on Instagram make the colours of my festive photos more intense and richer.

Switch up the angles 

I love experimenting with different camera angles for my blog and social media photos as there is more to Instagram and blog photos than flatlays! You can see from the festive table layout photos above, all of the different angles you can approach the same photo - experiment and you'll be surprised by the results.

Don't stick to an Instagram theme

Instagram themes are probably just a blogger or brand phenomenon where you stick to a certain filter and photography style and I've tried to stick to a theme so many times but it's not for me as I want to have the freedom to post what I want on my social media. I need to switch up the filters and style I use otherwise my feed gets really boring and samey; also every photo needs a different filter or style especially at this time of the year so don't restrict yourself or stress yourself out about it.

Add extras & Textures

Adding photo props or extras can make a photo look so much better as there's nothing worse when it comes to blog or social media photos than bare and boring photos. I love adding props and also textures to photos, it makes them more interesting and dimensional, if that makes any sense.

Overall, there are my simple festive photo tips and tricks for the christmas season. It is easy, especially if you are a blogger, to become stuck in a rut with your blog or social media photos but I think the main thing to remember is to keep it simple, experiment with filters, angles and apps and most of all, don't stress out about it - it's your account and your photos! Check out this article from The Furniture Market for more instagram photo tips. This is a collaborative post.

What do you think of my festive photos? Do you have any Instagram tips or tricks? What photo apps do you use?

Christmas Party Picks

The Christmas party season is coming up and I'm always struggling to decide what to wear that will be relatively warm, formal or party appropriate and comfortable but with the suitable glitz, detailing or lace for a christmas party or new year celebration. Thankfully there is still plenty of time to choose an outfit or two and Coast have so many gorgeous pieces!

Coast isn't a store that I ever really shop at but browsing their site last week, I found so many gorgeous dresses that are lacy, flattering and christmas appropriate but minimal which is what I always go for. Also there are gorgeous bags and glitter and sequin covered pieces that would be perfect for the upcoming festive season.

Party Glitter Clutch  -  Red Shift Dress  -  Black Lace Panel Dress  -  Black Lace Jumpsuit 

I adore the clutch bag, especially the design and glitter covered exterior; I'm not usually a fan of clutch bags but it's gorgeous and it does come with a chain strap *I have added it to my very long wish list*. Also I never really like jumpsuits but I love the simplicity of this one and the lace detailing makes it so gorgeous and festive party ready! This is a sponsored post.

What do you think of the items I've featured? What will you be wearing to christmas parties this year? Do you shop at Coast?

*Rosacea Awareness

Today's post is about a topic that I'm interested in and concerned with as, while I don't have rosacea, I do have a skin condition and I think it would be great for more people know know about skin conditions as sometimes they can be misdiagnosed or go untreated. When my eczema first started about eight years ago, I thought it was rosacea at the time as sometimes my eczema can look a little like rosacea but I've been diagnosed with eczema which I get on my face, eyes and hands. 

I know how awful it can be to have a long term skin condition, especially during the teenage years when appearance seems to be everything. I've already published a post about my experience of eczema including some of the products and tips that helped me. One of the main things that I have found really difficult in my eczema experience is trying to find the right treatment, I've tried so many steroid and non-steroid creams as well as allergy tablets and dietary changes to try to find a combination or treatment that helps and it can be a frustrating and depressing process; however finding the right treatment is essential. 

For rosacea, there are numerous treatment options as there are with eczema so it also might take a while to find a treatment that suits but one of the most popular and effective rosacea treatment options is IPL (intense pulsed light) and the Pulse Light Clinic has fifteen years of experience with rosacea treatments. IPL works be emitting light waves that target and damage the affected areas which triggers the body's natural response to repair the damaged areas resulting in new and clearer skin cells to replace the damaged cells. 

The before and after photos look amazing and they have a short video showing the rosacea treatments at the Pulse Light Clinic in London. I've read that IPL can be used to treat eczema as well so I will definitely be looking into IPL now as even though I can mostly keep it at bay with non-steroid creams, it still flares up and a more effective treatment would be fantastic. You can contact the Pulse Light Clinic to book in a free consultation and patch-test.

Again, if you have a skin condition or think you do, make sure you research and looking into various treatments and also speak to your GP about it. I've had to go back to my GP so many times to look into other treatment options for my eczema but it's worth persevering to find the right treatment! This is a sponsored post.

Do you have eczema or rosacea? Have you tried IPL?

please always do your own research before considering any kind of treatment anywhere or lifestyle change

*Travel Wish List ft. Citizen M

Original images from are Google

Since booking our family holiday to Norway next year, I've been searching for holidays constantly as well as searching through Pinterest at some of the main cities and countries I'd love to visit *the list is quite long*. Here are the top five cities and countries I'd love to visit! This is a collaborative post with Citizen M.

New York

I would love to visit quite a few cities and states in America such as California, San Francisco, Alaska and obviously New York. The Big Apple has been on my wish list the longest as I've wanted to go since college - my friends and I spent our college lunch breaks planning our 21st birthday trip to New York until you know, money got in the way! Citizen M hotels always look amazing, I've seen a few bloggers stay in their hotels and there is a Citizen M hotel in Time Square *yes please*.

Iceland

Last year Iceland seemed to be the blogger country of choice and it really didn't help my wanderlust. Iceland looks like one of the most picturesque countries ever with beautiful cities, glaciers, fjords, lagoons, geysers, a volcano and the stunning Hallgrimskirkja cathedral as well as whale watching, the northern lights, lava fields and hot springs - can you tell I really want to visit Iceland?!

Paris 

I have actually kind of visited Paris already...well, Disneyland Paris back in the 90's but I'd love to visit the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower and the Notre-Dame cathedral. Also, I'd love to go shopping (they have a Sephora in Paris!) and I'd be able to eat ALL the macarons! Citizen M also have hotel at the Charles de Gaulle airport.

London

This summer we booked a trip to the Harry Potter Studios with a day in London; however after a horrendous 8 hour coach journey in 32 degree heat, we only ended up with 90 minutes in London so I'd obviously love to go back! I've been a couple of times as a teenager, one with my choir to sing at the Royal Albert Hall for the Youth Proms. I'd love to visit Buckingham Palace, the massive Lush store on Oxford Street *obviously*, the Natural History Museum, Saint Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London - Citizen M actually have a hotel close to the Tower of London so I'm definitely going to be keeping it in mind when we eventually go back to London!

Norway 

Last but not least, Norway! Luckily we are going to be visiting Norway as a part of a P&O cruise next summer and I cannot wait to see all of the amazingly beautiful fjords and Bergen which looks like a gorgeous and picturesque city! Sadly we are going in the summer so we probably won't see the Northern Lights but that just means I'll have to visit again although to be honest I probably won't want to ever leave the first time!

Have you visited any of these cities? Have you stayed in a Citizen M hotel? Where do you want to visit next?

Jacamo Mens Gift Guide

Yes, it hasn't been Halloween just yet and I'm already talking about the C word...Christmas! I do love Christmas but I think the build up to Christmas is actually more magical and exciting than Christmas Day itself, is it just me who thinks like this? Anyway, I like to build up to Christmas early, particularly on my blog because for those like me who buy gifts and wrap presents REALLY early, it's good to have gift ideas a couple of months before the Christmas shopping rush!

Out of all of the family and friends I buy presents for, my dad is the worst! He doesn't like chocolate, football or sport in general, he doesn't read that much and he is frustratingly picky when it comes to clothing but I bought him a couple of formal work shirts and more casual shirts from Jacamo last year and he loved them!

Jacamo Stripe Polo  -  Burberry Aftershave Offer/Set  -  Bewley & Ritch Lambert Shirt  -  Black Label Shirt  -  Original Penguin Socks  -  Williams & Brown Tie  -  Jacamo Cargo Pants

This is a sponsored post but as I've already given my dad some items from here and he loves them, I would be already recommend them to you anyway. Jacamo has such a wide range of clothing, accessories and sportswear for such a wide age range, size range and styles; additionally they have a small range of aftershaves and gift sets too. I actually bought my dad the two blue shirts above, or two very similar ones, last year and he wears them so much for work so I'm definitely getting more this year. Also the aftershaves in this post are on offer - if you buy the Burberry Weekend aftershave, you will get the Burberry London aftershave for free! Also it's coming up to Black Friday so stay tuned!

Have you bought anything from Jacamo? What will you be buying your male friends and family this Christmas?

*New York Inspired Mood Board

Wanderlust is in full force right now, I just want to travel! The top cities and countries on my list are Norway (luckily I'm going there next summer), Iceland and America. I'd love to visit quite a few places in America such as California, New England, Oregon and of course, New York. So many bloggers seem to have been going to New York this month and it's making me want to visit the big apple even more! This post is a collaboration with Thomson.

New York seems to be such a vibrant, modern, exciting and interesting city to visit. As I'm definitely not into beach holidays, modern, exciting and interesting cities to visit are perfect for me as I love to visit the main sights of the places I visit and there are SO many sights to see in New York such as Time Square, The Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, Ellis Island, 9/11 memorial and more (obvs, I'd also LOVE to visit Sephora too). I think I'd especially love to visit in the autumn months as I think the gorgeous autumnal hues in Central Park would be gorgeous, yes, I'm thinking about blog photos...#BloggerProblems

New York fashion week was this month which again made me want to visit even more; however I wasn't as interested in the shows as the street style! Everyone in New York seems to be so chic and put together while being effortless and modern. I have a few examples in my mood board above of the gorgeous street style looks from around New York fashion week. Longline masculine style coats seem to be prevalent which I'm all for as well as chic, simple accessories and outfits on the whole and gorgeous ankle boots.

What do you think of my New York mood board? Have you visited New York? Where do you want to travel to next?

*Bidvine Quotes

Images from Pinterest

Today's post is a little different but I think it could be helpful to my British followers. It's all about Bidvine which is a website where you can get quick quotes for various services such as decorating, domestic services, music lessons, personal training, jewellery repair, accounting and so much more, including photography which is what I'm going to focus on.

The website is really quick and easy to use, you just search for the services you want (we will definitely be looking for gardening services via Bidvine soon!) and enter your postcode to get quotes from companies and individuals in your area. There are so many services that you can search for, there are some I never even thought of to search for. The website has been featured on the BBC, The Independent and The Evening Standard.

I've been looking at quotes for photography services in Manchester, as a blogger it's something I really want to get into because to be honest as much as I love my dad, his photography skills aren't the very best (sorry dad!) so I'd love to be able to have higher quality OOTD photos - as soon as I get the confidence to have my outfit photos taken in public! I'm getting there!

There are lots of photographer options to choose from including pet photography, family photos, wedding and baby photography services. The process of filling out the options for the quotes is really quick and easy, it only takes a couple of minutes and you can then get the quotes for services in your postcode but it's still quite specific so you probably won't get quotes that aren't suitable. You don't have to create an account, you can sign in via Google Plus or Facebook which is great. I'll definitely be recommending this sites to friends and family. This is a sponsored post.

Have you visited Bidvine? Will you use it to look for services? If you are a blogger, do you use a photographer to take your OOTD/fashion photographs?

Urban Retreat Luxury Spa Days at Harrods

Images from Urban Retreat

To me spa days and pampering treatments are the height of luxury when it comes to looking after yourself and destressing; time for yourself is so important and in an age when we spend probably too much time scrolling through social media *guilty*, being inactive and maybe not eating as healthily as we all could, I think it's additionally important to take some time out to relax and look after yourself. I can't think of anything from luxurious than a spa day at the Urban Retreat spa which is located within the famous and illustrious Harrods department store...yes, I didn't really know about it either and I need to go ASAP.

I have purchased from the Urban Retreat online beautique before which I can't recommend enough (their sales are always amazing) but I didn't know they offered spa days until now. They offer a couple of amazing sounding Moroccan hammam spa packages such as the Signature Hammam and Hair Package (£190) which includes 80 minute treatment, full access to the spa facilities as well as a blow dry by one of Urban Retreat's top stylists - it's sounds incredible! The even more luxurious package, the Half Day Moroccan Hammam Experience, includes an 80 minute treatment, 50 minute massage, blow dry, manicure, pedicure, makeup application and either lunch or afternoon tea.

Images from Urban Retreat

I think both of the Hammam Packages would make an incredibly wonderful and luxurious gifts, yes, I am already thinking about Christmas...They also offer a range of hair treatments, hair removal options, facials, makeup services, pregnancy treatments, lash and brow treatments, treatments for men and so much more!

If you're overly organised, some say ridiculously so, like me then the Urban Retreat spa days and treatments are definitely worth looking into as possible gift ideas; there are so many opinions, there's something for everyone. This is a sponsored post.

Have you been to the Urban Retreat spa in Harrods? Have you had a spa day? What do you think of these spa day packages?

*Discussion: Dreams

Image from Pinterest

Today's post is a little different to my recent posts is it's a mixture of nostalgia, psychology and a discussion on dreams. If you didn't know, I have a First Class BSc Hons degree in psychology from the University of Huddersfield; we didn't go into depth about dreams but I have always found it an interesting topic, both within academia and generally. This is a collaborative post.

Freud developed theories regarding dreams and the unconscious which while in university we did cover because Freud is such an influential and famous figure within psychology but I personally don't agree with most of his theories - how can you take someones theories seriously when they take cocaine for a large part of their life! However, dream interpretation has been such a discussed topic and as we know so little about the brain and how/why dreams are created or needed, there are so many theories and possible explanations.

I personally think that dreams are related to memories, things we've seen and done and thoughts but there are so many ideas out there. I don't dream as much as an adult as I did when I was a child and as a teenager. As a child the dreams I remember the most are the scary or weird ones, I had one reoccurring dream where a witch came into our house while everyone was sleeping and I tried *and succeeded* to get her our of the house with my toothbrush...as you do.

Also while I was a teenager in high school and into sixth form I had a reoccurring dream where I was chased through my high school at night by a Jack the ripper type person which was scary. I probably had those dreams because we had to learn about all of the gory details of the Jack the ripper murders in high school or maybe it means I am running away from my responsibilities or fears...

I don't dream as much now and when I do, I usually forget them so quickly and I also have a lot of trouble getting to sleep; it can take me hours to finally get to sleep - whereas my dad on the other hand can fall asleep standing up, I need to get him one of those reclining chairs, he'd love that! I think my inability to get to sleep properly is partly because of all of the technology around me. I constantly want to check my phone at night and I usually watch Youtube or scroll endlessly through social media platforms in bed which isn't a good habit to have.

The #DreamsExplained video is now live!

Do you have reoccurring dreams? Are you a night owl like me and use your phone constantly?

House Of Fraser Winter Wish List

We all know by now that I love coats and jackets, I have so many but even so I cannot help myself from buying more and wanting more - ALL THE COATS! I end up justifying my mountain of coats by saying that it goes with so many outfits when actually it only goes with a couple - hence the need to buy more to go with all of my other outfits...#ShopaholicLogic

House of Fraser have a fantastic and wide selection of coats and jackets, so many of which are on my wish list and I hope some of them go in the Boxing Day/January sales *fingers crossed*. This year I have been obsessed with longline and more masculine style coats as I have been wearing them paired with either jeans and a jumper or a dress, tights and ankle boots and I love how they look!

- Linea Revere Collar Camel Coat: Camel is such a classic autumn/winter shade and I don't actually have anything in my wardrobe this colour! I love the style of this coat, although sadly I think on me it would trail on the floor #PetitePersonProblems - what's with all of the hashtags in this post.

- Gloverall Contemporary Reefer Navy Coat: Why in life generally do I always gravitate instantly to the expensive products...but how gorgeous is this coat. It reminds me of coats seen on the autumn/winter 2016 catwalks of Chloe, Michael Kors and Nina Ricci *swoon*.

- Fenn Wright Manson Larke Cape Grey: As well as the reefer coat, this is one of my favourites from the House of Fraser website. I love grey coats, I think they pair well with anything and they look so chic and put together.

- Aquascutum Murray Double Breasted Trench: I own a lot of coats and jackets but I've never had a trench coat - this will have to change! I love the olive green, almost military shade of the trench and the slightly masculine but fitted style.

- Betty Barclay Knitted Cardigan Coat: Yes, another grey coat and another style I don't actually own - yes, I know I'm shocked too. A cardigan coat or coatigan would be perfect for winter days as they are less heavy and structured compared to coats and jackets but they still keep you warm and cosy. This is a sponsored post.

What do you think of the coats at House of Fraser? What do you think of my coat picks?

My University Experience: Managing Money

If you have been following my blog for a while then you may know that I graduated from university two years ago now and I have to say it was one of the best decisions I've made, even though it can be so difficult and very stressful sometimes (especially while blogging as consistently as I could and writing my dissertation!) but I would definitely recommend it! I went to a very small campus which was part of the University of Huddersfield which was close to home so I didn't need to move out; therefore I didn't have that added financial strain. Although being a student isn't a walk in the park for anyone in terms of studying, exams and finances. 

Todays post is a sponsored post in collaboration with TSB and my friend Yasmin, who is also a university graduate, all about our university experience with regards to managing money. Also you get to see some slightly embarrassing photos of my graduation...If you have any advice or tips for managing money while at college or university then feel free to leave a comment below! 

As mentioned in my previous post, the TSB student account is a great option for university students but did you know that they also have an app where you can easily manage your money? Yasmin uses the free TSB app all of the time as it is so useful for transferring money to friends/family even if they are with different banks as well as paying tax, bills or standing orders for example. The app shows your transaction history so you can see exactly how much you have spent, saved and transferred to others which makes managing your money so much easier especially as a student with student loans, grants and payments that need to be carefully managed. On the app your TSB student account will be displayed so you can monitor your finances and if you also have a TSB savings account them it too will be displayed so if you were very money savvy and forward thinking, you could transfer a certain amount of your student loan or grant into your savings account so quickly and easily - otherwise it will probably be spent on nights out! I think if you have numerous accounts (for example a student account and a savings account) then it might be useful and easier to have them with one bank, especially if you're using a banking app. 

As well as the app, you can get mobile text alerts from TSB so you receive a text reminder when you are nearing or if you have reached your limit; therefore you know if you need to cut back on the spending a little (feelin' spendy is ok sometimes but not all of the time!) or if you need to transfer money. Yasmin used the app and text alerts while at uni as it is perfect for students as it means you can avoid unplanned overdraft charges. I think both the app and text alerts will be invaluable to students as being a student can be difficult enough without adding in extra stress about managing your money and payments. 

Also, within most universities there should be student financial support where you can get general advice as the world of banking and managing money can be confusing (even if you aren't a student)! Lastly, one way of managing money that all of us could use is to shop around for the best deals and rates to make sure you are not spending more than you need to. 

If you're looking for money saving tips then check out my 'student money saving tips' post and if you want more information from TSB then check out their useful savvy student guide.

How To Make Your Bathroom Pinterest Worthy

Image Source

What do we want from our bathroom? A beautiful spa like oasis that would be at home in any chic home magazine, or, the holy grail for all modern day home makers – Pinterest. If you wish that your bathroom can become an inspiration to others, it’s worth researching current bathroom trends because it’s easy to overlook simple ideas that can make all the difference. 

Declutter

Bathrooms are renowned for becoming cluttered, clever and stylish storage is the way forward when it comes to making your bathroom Pinterest worthy; So hide the family sized bar of Dove, hide the children’s toys and HIDE loo rolls! Practicality unfortunately does not make pretty pictures. Clever storage ‘hacks’ are always popular; clever ways to divide draws, beautiful glass storage for cotton wool and neatly folded towels are popular with those who need to glam up their space.

Bathing Beauties

If you want to capture your envious retreat and post it to the site, the only acceptable ‘clutter’ would be fabulous bath products and if you are anything like me, your mood will dictate the products that I use. My favourite’s right now is anything by Molton Brown. A mix of elegant packaging and invigorating scents, they are perfect for both dawn and dusk, and are worthy of any Pinterest post.

Accessorize, Accessorize, Accessorize 

A girl’s favourite word. You aren’t selling a suite, you are inspiring darling! Continue with your theme – Have you gone English Country, Moroccan, Spa Like? Chances are that by adding the extra magic touches like mirrors, lamp shades and candles your post is bound to catch people’s eye.

Bring in the green! 

We are just not only talking plant life here, although a well-placed Orchid can go a LONG way. We are referring to ‘Eco Chic’ - some will argue that the term ‘Eco –chic’ is a widespread marketing strategy, but in reality it is the latest shift in the Environmentalist movement; with the emerging trends in eco-friendly fashion for the house and home, being ‘green’ is now resonating with a far wider audience and making it a much more viable trend to bring into every room in the home.

Be Suggestive
Any self-respecting stylist knows that we have to suggest all of the wonderful ways they will be enjoying the space. Books, wine and soft lighting to soak away all of our earthly woes; A coffee cup and a fluffy white robe for some early morning invigoration. What your post needs to convey is; “I live here. And I love it”.
