LBD and YSLs

So its 6:17 am, I just got home from a night out, I am slightly uncoordinated- but for some reason feel its the right time to make a blog post!
I had such a good night tonight and really loved what I was wearing :)
I wore a cute Little Black Dress from TFNC London @ ASOS and black YSL Tribute mary-jane heels :) I also wore a cute ring from Dorothy Perkins, an Elizabeth and James ring, a silver Topshop bangle, a gold locket (from my boyfriend), silver sparkly studs, and I carried my black Chanel 2.55 bag :)
(For my make up, I wore Benefit bronzer, Benefit Blusher, YSL Amethyst Eyeshadow, YSL silver eyeliner, black Maxfactor mascara, Bobby Brown lip gloss and a pinky-purple shade of Rimmel nail polish! I just wore my hair natural with some hairspray!)
Here's my newest attempt at taking pictures of my outfit!

House Hunting!

Today I went house hunting with my friend Rosie for our house next year! How exciting! It wasn't that cold out but was soooo windy so I used it as an excuse to wrap up in my new Forever 21 Cardigan <3. I also wore a Kimchi and Blue cami, J brand skinny jeans, my Joie boots and an Elizabeth and James ring. I also carried my beautiful Balenciaga Part Time bag, which was big enough for all my house paperwork! :)
I suck at taking pictures so here are my attempts anyway!

The F21 cardigan is soo chunky and warm! You can buy it here for just $27.80! So worth it, its gorgeous! Even Vanessa Hudgens is a fan!

Cole Haan Riding Boots?

I absolutely love Cole Haan shoes, they are amazingly comfortable as they are owned by Nike! I recently saw a few pics of Vanessa Hudgens on the Journey 2 set rocking these gorgeous boots, and I realllllly want them!!! And they are on sale too! These boots would look amazing over some skinny jeans and a chunky cardigan! Decisions Decisions...

Cole Haan Avalon Boots

Ahh I think I NEED these boots <3

2011!

Happy New Year! I know its a little late as it is February, but all i've been wearing lately is pyjamas as I had surgery in January! Now i'm feeling better I will posting as much as I can :)
Today is quite sunny so I thought i'd keep my outfit bright and cheerful. I love this Topshop dress I'm wearing, it's so beautiful and colourful! I'm also wearing a Topshop waistbelt, an Elizabeth & James ring, a Next necklace my mum got me for Christmas which is so cute! Some sparkly stud earings, and my Joie boots <3 It's kinda very bohemian (as my boyfriend told me this morning LOL!) so if I go out, I think I will carry my Cole Haan Raleigh crossbody <3
(I tried to get good pictures, I'm so bad at it though!)

Boho Chick

Today is really sunny outside, and not really that cold! So I decided to wear an outfit that would bring a little bit of summer to November!
I'm wearing a Rose - pink, floral maxi skirt from Dorothy Perkins, My favourite Joie boots, and a cute ivory sweater from Topshop <3

I'm also wearing two rings, both from Dorothy Perkins, and a necklace from Topshop.

Today I think I will carry my Cole Haan Raleigh bag because it's not often I can use it in winter in the UK as the rain would ruin it! plus I just love it - the perfect boho bag!

Hope you like it :) I will post actual pictures when my camera gets fixed!
Thanks for looking, Rachael,xoxo.

Outfit Time!

Today I had a relaxing day doing absolutely nothing :) Me and Alex lay in all day and watched Toy Story 2 <3

I wore a comfy sweater from Topshop, some Hollister sweat pants and cute thermal socks from Primark because it was absolutely FREEEEEZING! I also wore a cute long necklace and a jewelled ring, both from Topshop, to brighten up a very miserable winters day!

38 days until Christmas...

I can't believe how fast this year has gone! Just over a month until Christmas! Luckily I started my shopping in September so I'm almost done and aren't really panicking! 
Although... I do have to fully decide on what I want as my main presents from my Fiancé Alex and my Mum (I do have a very good idea of what I want though!) :)
Perfect opportunity for some new accessories I think!
My Mum always gets me a pair of shoes for Christmas every year- Last year I got the cutest pair of Pradas! This year i'm thinking of some YSL's because I am in love with some of this years styles! 
In particular the Cognac coloured suede 'Tribute' pumps! They are to die for! Classy with the leather knot style, sky high stiletto and simple design, yet kinda boho with the tan colour suede!
Yeah I think I know what I'm getting from my mum!
If you aren't sure which ones I mean, here's a pic along with the link to Net-a-Porter!

From Alex, I want a new handbag! I'm really obsessed with handbags and I would normally go for ones that are a bit unique because I hate having a handbag that everyone else has! Cole Haan handbags are my calling- gorgeous and every style is so different!

So i'm going for the complete opposite of that and am thinking of going for a Balenciaga! Yes they all look practically the same, but I don't have one and it will be unique to my collection!

I was in a store called 'Cricket' in Liverpool and saw the 'Giant Part Time' bag in black with gold hardware and I fell in love! 

The leather is so buttery soft and the giant studs are so cool looking in person! 

I think every girl needs that big, durable, cool looking bag that goes with everything, and I think the 'Part Time' was made for that purpose!

Well I think I've pretty much convinced myself of two amazing presents :) All of a sudden 38 days seems ages away!

Welcome :)

Hi! And Welcome to my blog!
I am absolutely obsessed with fashion and different styles! I could spend all day searching the net for something new and funky!
Here I will post my recent outfits, purchases and my wish list! 
My favourite stores/ sites are: Topshop, Urban Outfitters, Hollister, A+F, ASOS, Revolve, Planet Blue and some more I can't think of.
As far as my style goes, its very varied to say the least. I love mixing it up which is why I put an image showing Coco Chanel and a Planet Blue model as my header picture.
Sometimes I like classic sophisticated looks, and other times I love to be completely laid back and boho!
I don't really 'follow' fashion and go with the latest trends as such, as I like to throw in my own twist :) 
When people ask me who my style icon is, I always say Vanessa Hudgens! She always looks amazing and she dresses similarly to me so I sometimes steal her ideas! <3


Hope you guys enjoy reading my posts! 
Love Rachael xoxo.
