Flying into 2015

Happy New Year everyone!!!!! I know it's been ages since I have blogged but as a part of my new years resolution I am hopefully going to blog a lot more about my own style and brands I am loving along with trends. I know it is something I say every year but I have realised that I take so much pleasure in sharing my outfits on Instagram so why can I not apply the same enthusiasm to my blog?! 

I am obsessed with my new Isabel Marant Aviator jacket. It is so warm and comfortable, to top it off it has been on my list of things to buy since it launched at the start of AW14 so to find it in the sale at 60% was a true blessing! It was a no brainer to pair it with my Marant striped top and Sandro jeans because let's face it the French have always had the leather jacket looks down to perfection/ 

I love my ever growing Chanel collection especially these two pieces. It is always hard to call something my favourite in my Chanel collection when everything is. I am a fussy buyer (it may not seem it but I am) I have a mind of my own and like to be quirky or understated, so when I see people trying too hard I don't know wether as a stylist to feel offended or to turn away and put it down to a lack of imagination. I definitely feel 2014 was the birth of a whole new side of Chanel but this year with the impending Riot collection and Salzburg it's not gonna stop the ever growing fascination with Chanel. My trainers are from Dubai cruise collection, after being super fussy about the sneakers, in the space of 2 months I managed to rake up an impressive 5 pairs! These are my "light" pair (denim and white). The boy bag is my dream boy. I bought this is the summer in Paris, I wanted a velvet since 2013 so when I saw this in a rare size I knew it was worth the wait. It practically goes with everything. 

I hope everyone has been enjoying their first few days of the year!

The Plaid Express

Bonsoir from Paris! Sorry for the lack of love Christmas fever has kicked in!

Back in early October, myself and the boyfriend were invited to a lovely event at Isabel Marant. I have been a huge Marant fan for years and this seasons Étoile collection has been incredible. I really treated myself with this collection and walked away with 3 dresses and a leather jacket! This haul has to be my best this year. The pieces I bought are definitely forever pieces.

This plaid dress has completely taken over my life! No I am not being dramatic. It really has. I have worn this so many times I truly am getting my moneys worth. Even better, I went and bought an alternative colour combo as this dress is so light, warm and comfortable that I thought the red and black would be an amazing addition. (Days after I bought the Red and Black version, the oh so cool Anna Dello Russo was seen in Seoul wearing the same dress.) Of course I have to thank the plaid gods for being in fashion this season. I find it really hard to find a lovely and not a part time Plaid dress to add to my wardrobe so thanks Isabel for bringing these into my life. I cannot wait to blog the Red and Black version of this dress for you.

Bonsoir Choupette

Evening everyone!

I am so sorry for being AWOL recently. It is that time of the year where work has consumed me and people congregate around me like I have the holy answer! I wish!

But alas I am in full happy mood that Christmas is around the corner and for once I think November is moving slowly. Why? Well I think it helps when a lot of new Christmas collections and Cruise collection land in stores. It's like a giant playground for us fashionistas right? But it is also the biggest hole one can create in the bank account. 

One collection I have been excited about has been the Karl Lagerfeld Choupette collection. 

Who doesn't love this man and his love for Choupette, quite possibly the most famous cat in the world. So it's a no brainer that he would make a wonderful collection that focuses on his one love. So here are some of the pieces that have become available in the Karl boutiques around the globe (no online sales as of yet).

How cute right and they did not fail to look as wonderful in real…

I was so pleased with the bits I got from the collection…

What do you guys think of the collection? How sweet is the new Choupette bag charm? I really want the red one too!

Would love to hear your thoughts!

Thanks Uncle Karl for my new gems!

Chanel On The Go.

Denim Shirt- Monki

Joggers- H&M

Leather Jacket- Zara

Sneakers- Chanel 

Necklace- Chanel

Bracelet- Balenciaga

Rings- Cartier 'Love'

I cannot believe it has taken me this long to post about my absolute loves…The Chanel sneakers from AW14 collection. So I know i am a lucky pup. My job and hard work always pays off when it comes to getting the pieces I love. I was extra lucky when I was told I could buy as many pairs and I wanted 3 days before the launch of the collection! I of course had the pink on my list since the show and the bright multicolour, but I didn't realise I would fall in love with the grey as much as I did. 

But alas I stuck with my original 2 choices and a pair of the classic running sneakers which finally came in a colour combo that suited my style and taste. I instantly had to wear them so I wore my first and favourite out -These to die for Pink Tweed. Now these are the ones almost everyone wanted due to the whole runway look (Oh and Alexa Chung having them) so I was so smug walking around the days before launch but didn't realise walking to my meeting in Selfridges would lead to a woman screaming at me to tell her who sold them to me. Wow! 

That aside, this outfit was so planned pre obtaining my dream sneakers. When you ask? Well when I bought these joggers in H&M Paris. If you know me well you will know I am not big on sports luxe, I love sneakers but not the biggest jogger fan. I just immediately fell in love with these and instantly knew what to pair it with, classic denim shirt and leather jacket. I especially love that my favourite Monki denim shirt worked so so well with the outfit. Now it's time to work out what other outfits will go with my pants.

A Fairytale in Montmartre

Dress- Topshop

Denim Shirt- Primark

Bag- Celine Trio

Sandals- Ancient Greek

Sneakers- Saint Laurent

Floral Hairband- Vintage

Sunglasses- Miu Miu

Necklace- Chanel

They definitely kept the best till last at Rock en Seine. Sunday night saw us get absolutely hammered dancing to Brody Dalle, Lana Del Rey, La Roux, Kavinsky and the all mighty Queens of The Stone Age! But before we ventured off to the festival we took in the sights of my local area- Montmartre. God I love the Sacre Coeur. To say I wake up in this area never gets old. I really love walking around here and it was so nice to share it with my brother who always wonders what I am always talking about when I come home and spill the Parisian gossip.

As you know I LOVE this gingham dress from Topshop. I've blogged about it before in a previous post and just could not wear this in Paris. As you can see I did change my shoes. I went from gleefully running around the Sacre Coeur in Ancient Greek Sandals to be truly debaucherous and running from stage to stage in my beloved (and only 2 days old) Saint Laurent Fang sneakers! Plus an add of a floral hairband (vintage) and here I present a 2 ways to wear one outfit in the same day. 

As it was the last day at the festival and a Sunday we did take the opportunity to drop all necessary things off to the apartment which meant me and the boyfriend shared a tote bag. I absolutely loved the freedom of running around with no bag (of course he carried it!) it did make me more mischievous and we ended the night singing and skipping home…of course the repercussions of a hangover were not thought about! But hey we enjoyed it and we revelled in having a lovely hangover breakfast at Cafe de Flore (Seriously I recommend the Baileys espresso as a hangover cure!) and a spot of shopping in Saint Germain. Ah Paris I love you.
