Free People Order

So I posted a big list of goodies I bought in January here, but i've not posted pics of them all yet! My order from Free People consisted of the 'Jenoah' floppy hat in Taupe, and an FP One blouse :)

They are both super fab, i'm very pleased! 

Glitz & Glamour.

I was in such a sparkly mood today! So I dressed really girly and chilled with the girls all day! We even did a little photoshoot LOL! I just had to wear the gorgeous glitter shoes I bought from Zara (mentioned here)! They are just too stunning in person <3

Recent Orders...

I got a big pile of packages from the post man today, actually buzzing as there wasn't any customs from my Free People or Revolve orders! Here's a few of the things that came this morning :)

 Topshop Sequin Top: £55- Sold Out

Blue Life 'O So Glam' Dress: $105- Sold Out

Zara Knitted Top: £19.99- Sold Out

Jewellery...

I don't think i've ever done a post on jewellery so I thought I might as well! The jewellery I wear often changes, depending on the weather and time of year! In the summer I love to wear big bright coloured jewels and more wooden beads, long rings etc... all the boho stuff!
In the winter my jewellery is more classic! My everyday winter jewellery consists of pearls, silver, golds, and anything that sparkles!

 Everyday in the winter I just go to this little box for my essentials!

And of course I love to wear diamonds- who doesn't!? This is one of my favourites.

Can't Wait To Wear...

Over the winter i've had so many gifts / bought so many things for my Summer wardrobe and here's an outfit I just can't wait to wear!

Cynthia Vincent Wedges, Current Elliott High Waisted Shorts, Blu Moon Blouse

Bring on the sunshine! xoxo

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year guys! Hope you all had a lovely time over the holidays- I know I did!
Ok so i've not been able to blog that much because Christmas was so busy and I was hardly home, and before that I had so much uni work on top of me it was unreal- so I basically lived in sweats for weeks LOL!
I don't think i've ever posted recent purchases before.. mainly because I shop so much i'd have to update my blog every half an hour haha- joke! But seriously I do shop far too much and I would love to start sharing my purchases!

Versace for H&M

H&M has collaborated once again with an amazing designer and I can sense my bank card is screaming! I need to get my hands on some of these amazing affordable pieces! Although some of the more elaborate pieces are definitely not for me, there are quite a few that I wouldn't mind trying my best to pull off! It's a well known fact that most of Versace's pieces are quite eccentric- to say the least, and make very bold statements! So all of you confident girls out there, get queuing!

Here are a few of my favourites from this collection!


This blouse is just adorable and totally versatile! This look stunning over some leather skinny pants/ black skinny jeans and sky scraper platform heels, maybe with a fur gillet as well, for a night out... Or for a chic cute look in the day why not pair it up with a long, layered pearl necklace, thick tights and this skirt below, also from the V for H&M collection!

This skirt is also an amazing piece, it just oozes old hollywood glamour/ French chic sophistication! It would look amazing with the top above or you could wear it in the style of possibly one of the most elegant and glamorous British women, Emma Watson.


She wore a similar skirt at an event here and looked absolutely beautiful! I just love the detail on this skirt, the fabric, the pleats, the detail at the bottom, just wow! it will flatter your waist, bum, and make you look instantly chic!

I also love this skirt from the collection

I would personally wear this with quite a plain blouse, maybe an ivory coloured silk top with a single stunning gold embellished necklace because you don't want to go over the top with this skirt as it has alot of detail and you wouldn't want too much as it would be in your face! so I would keep jewellery and other prints very minimal, one necklace would do! Less is more as my nana used to say! Very true! pair it with some tights and ballet flats/ simple heels!

Although this colour is very loud and out there I just love this dress

The structure is so stunning and the simple detail means you can totally get away with the colour! I would wear this with a simple ivory platform pump with a slight pearly tone! A YSL tribtoo pump springs to mind! I think that would be perfect or just a plain black platform pump. Again I would keep it simple as the dress makes a big statement! Think Kim Kardashian with this dress, this is definitely her style! As well as looking very sophisticated and elegant in this dress due to the fabulous length, you would also look ultra sexy as it hugs and emphasises every curve!

So these were just a few of my loves from this Versace for H&M collection, I hope you girls can get your hands on something you really like!
Love, Rachael xoxo
