My new favourite purchase from Topshop- Cigarette trousers

Say hello to my new wardrobe member. I have been looking for something other than jeans or leggings to wear for a while, so when I came across these monochrome checked cigarette trousers I had to try them on!!

They are perfect for this annoying weather stage, it is not freezing but it is not warm enough for shorts and skirts, so I though I can pair these trousers with a basic white top and a jacket or even a knit jumper! Trousers are not normally my cup of tea and they don't really work for me but sometimes picking an item up and trying it on can make a huge difference! Somethings look much better on than what they look like on the hanger....but of course somethings look fabulous on a hanger and just a NO NO when I try them on!

I've been home this weekend to see family and take a breather from the heaps of uni work that has appeared but starting Monday its back to normal, boo!

Embroidery and embellishment trend

With the obsession of minimalism and basics in fashion reaching its peak, embroidery and embellishments have begun to appear all over the catwalk shows and really do make the artisitc looks even more attractive. 

There was and still is a huge trend on  minimalism, I'm guilty of this too but sometimes you need something extra. The embroidery took on a new meaning at Gucci and Etro. The detail of the moment when it comes to clothing and accessories is embellishment and embroidery finishes, something that was all over the spring and fall runways and certainly worth investing in. 

Here are some pieces ready to buy now so that you are on trend and ready to hit the summer months.

Fragrance project, research has begun...

As part of my uni course, our next module is to build a perfume brand from scratch...build a story, the design and the promoting. I am so excited, so I have been getting some early research in and looked into perfumes out there right now and the best promotional methods I have seen!
