It's time to shop till you drop, or on a better note in the comfort of your own home this festive period.... Is it me or do you find that the sales start earlier and earlier each year and can become a little bit overwhelming and I must confess I hate going into stores, I steer well clear of Oxford Circus, I don't fancy being in that concrete jungle anytime soon, elbowing my way through childless and with the right footwear on to run and nab those pair of vinyl trousers i've been lusting over!

Instead I am shopping from the comfort of my own home armed with the left over festive booze, nothing like a little drunken (just a tad) shopping to encourage me to overfill my basket! So with my feet firmly propped up, it was time for me to get down and dirty to shop the New Years sales to peruse the web so you don't have to.

I have linked a few of my fave items from my fave stores for you, family and friends.

Enjoy! Let me know what you snap up in the comments below. x

I can not believe how quick the year has flown by and we are days away from September! I am still trying to cling on to summer for dear life, but with the stores filling up with Autumns must haves, it's hard to resist temptation and not fall in love with Autumnal hues, super soft, cosy and fluffy textured sweaters they are all irresistibly hard to resist.

I know that' it's still super warm, but there are so many must have sweaters available and please, I beg, do not kill me, some may think it is sacrilege with what I am about to confess! But I am yearning for colder months, not so much the wet weather that comes with Autumn, but just to feel cosy and comfortable in my sweater, so that I can sit by the fire in the pub or curl up on the sofa with Leanora, Milo and some sweet treats, all whilst watching The Great British Bake Off (how excited are you that it is back, do you have a favourite yet?!).

There is something about the Autumnal season that just makes me so happy and seeing all those pretty rust coloured leaves falling on the ground excites me, plus I get to wear a great pair of boots and eat a bucket load of Butternut Soup.

With Autumn fast approaching and new season items flooding the stores, we are all absolutely spoilt for choice. I am totally preparing myself from now to get those must have Autumn sweaters into my wardrobe before they all get snapped up.

I have created a big list and sectioned them just to make it easier for you lovelies to view and browse with ease below.

I never thought I'd be wearing a pair of culottes, but they are super comfortable and easy to wear be it dressed up or down. Oh, and do you not think that it is a funny word to say, culottes! Like panties, it always makes me chuckle! 

The culottes were originally worn by French upper-class men in the Renaissance era up until the early 19th century and be it not fast forward into the twentieth century we wear them loose, they were originally fastened below the knee with buttons, a strap and buckle or a drawstring. But that's enough history lets get back on how to wear them, shall we? 

What I am Wearing 





As chic as culottes are, you want to nail it by styling it the right way, if you get the wrong colour, shape for you, it can all go a bit Pete tong, and end up looking like a stumpy sausage. You want your culottes to elongate you, so go for a high-waisted pair so that it lengthens you, or if you are so in love with the pair you've bagged and sits on your waist, then wear them with a pair of high heels, to give you that height needed. 

Once you have found your perfect pair this Spring, wear them with a light top, nothing too heavy it is Spring after all and you will want something to balance you out, as culottes are quite wide on the lower half.

Looking to rock the culotte at work or during the day, then I would wear it with a blazer and some flat sandals as I have done for a more relaxed look and dress it up with some fab accessories to take you into night.

Will you be investing in a pair of culottes this Spring?
