Buy of the week - colourblocking dress

Colourblocking has been and continues to be a big trend. It's a great way to add colour into your wardrobe. Especially with this gorgeous dress by Diane Von Furstenberg. It's classic design make it a timeless piece, but the colour combination makes it ultra modern. It's subtle but so so chic!. I love it the fact that it's a great transitional piece. You can wear it now with opaque tights and a blazer and on it's on when the weather gets warmer. Result. Buy the yellow and/or red at Harrods.com, which do you prefer?

With this dress, it was a definite love at first sight. I'm a big, big fan of the longer lengths, it's smart enough for office (throw over blazer to cover up the back) and just as great for the evening, just add sparkly jewellry and sexy heels. Did I mention it only costs£35! What's not to love? The only problem you may have, is to decide on a colour. Black and red are both timeless and chic, the blue one looks very now and will ensure you stand out from the crowd. Either one, I simply can't resist. Available from ASOS, you can shop them  here.

This faux fur jacket is THE buy of the week. It falls under so many this season's trends and simply looks gorgeous. First of all jewel tones and especially red shades are massive, also it's very 40s and resembles the very good AW Gucci collection (you can see the influence..). It's a perfect length and will go great with jeans as well as with a dressy outfit for the evening. And the best bit? It's just been reduced to £70! Buy it  here. I love it!

I am a big fan of statement skirts. I mean what an easy way to create outfits. With statement skirt you just need to add a plain tee or a blouse and a pair of heels and you're done. And the good news is there is plenty options available for every budget. I've found quite a few amazing ones at Mango and picked my favourite two. The colour palette of the striped one is great and will go with just about anything. You can easily dress it up or down. Plus stripes is a print that never goes away so it's definitely timeless. The black feather one is so glamorous! Feathers are interesting addition to any wardrobe and in this skirt you'll be the belle of the ball.

Last couple of weeks the Buys of the week were designer. And let's face it, not everyone can afford designer, or at least not all the time. So today I'm bringing you high street treasures. Yes plural! I've got two great products I bought yesterday and loving very very much. I popped into Zara - without a doubt my favourite high street store. I wanted to buy everything! In the end I walked out with three items, one of which is a pair of shoes I'm going to show you tomorrow for my Party feet post - stay tuned as they are HOT.
So the first thing is python print shirt for £29.99. I've been after one for a while. Animal print is huge and snakes are my current favourite. It looks very much like one by Equipment but for a fraction of the prize. It feels nice on the skin and I already have million outfit options in my head. It's an easy way to dress up your skinnies. I bought mine one size too large to balance the proportions. I also love tying shirts at waist. It gives a cool edge to prim skirts and smart pants.
Second item is a golden threads boxy jacket. It's very Rachel Zoe whose style I admire. I love that it seems very sparkly and dressy but looks great with jeans. Perfect for many occasions. I've been after something like this for a while. It cost decent £69.99 and I can tell you now, I'm going to wear it A LOT.

I'm not a big fan of green colour, but this below the knee pencil skirt by DvF caught my attention straight away. It's the perfect stand out piece that can be worn many ways. Wear it with chunky knit and boots for casual lunches, with courts and a blouse for work meetings and statement heels, boob tube top and big necklace for night out. Really the possibilities are endless. The length is very in and continues to be a big trend for spring. I love the contrast metallic waist band that gives it cool age. Definite investment piece available at Matches.com and you can buy it here.

This has always been quite irregular feature but it's been quite popular, so I decided to make it a regular one. And it makes sense, because doing what I do, I always come across lots of great items. So I'm going to share them with you. Same may be a total bargain (like last week's H&M's coat) and some not so much (like today's item). Either way, it's always something I'm loving for one reason or another.
I am a sucker for animal print with snake one being my favourite, which is a bit odd, as I'm petrified of snakes. But hey they look good in shapes of handbags, shoes etc. (Cruel?).
These Christian Louboutins are absolute stunners. The red sole gives the the perfect finish, but the heel, the shape.. I love everything about them. A bit pricy at £955, but worth every penny (Loreal's - Because you're worth it springs to mind..). Women can never have enough shoes and I think every wardrobe needs these. Can you imagine a better way to dress up any old LBD? Just in at Net-a-porter, you can buy them here.

Whether we like it or not, it's time to start thinking about winter and get ready to add extra layers into our daily ensembles. I'm a big fan of fur and fur coats are so glamorous. The good news is, there is so much great fake fur around, you don't have to worry about animals suffering. I love this coat by H&M in stores now for £39.99! Bargain! Looking good, staying warm and saving pennies at the same time is a deal no one can resist. See you at the tills.

The spring has most definitely sprung in London, with increasing temperatures and plenty of sunshine. Everyone seems happier and smiles more - my favorite time of the year. If you haven't sorted out your spring wardrobe yet, hurry up! You can start with this cool little number from the queen of French chic Isabel Marant at net-a-porter. It's the perfect dress for this sunny weather and I love everything about it. The shape, the colour.. Wear now with denim jacket, cool pumps and ankle socks and just flat sandals in the summer. It's a great transitional piece. What's your spring wardrobe must-have?

Ok, this skirt is a bit pricey, but I believe it's worth every penny. I love the colour chart and the detailing. You can wear it now with black opaque tights and ankle boots and come summer, bare legs and strappy sandals. I love Matthew Williamson's work and consider some of his clothes pieces of art. This is a true collector's item and if money is no objectget yours at net-a-porter.

How amazing are these wedges from H&M! Wedges are my choice of footwear for most of the year, but in the summer I simply can't live without them. These nautical beauties are great with cropped pants and simple tee for your beach look or skirt and a blouse for chilled out weekends. Now the sun has been coming out a bit more, it's time to start shedding layers and this pair of shoes is an easy way to accessorize to perfection.

This week's buy of the week is yet another handbag. I didn't use to like many on the high street but they've improved massively and you can get some gorgeous pieces for really good price. This one is from Dorothy Perkins and is perfect in so many ways. Not only is the coral colour going to be huge in the upcoming season, you can easily wear it with anything. Pair with pinks and blues for colour blocking or give a pop of colour to your nudes. The boxed shape reminds me of Hermes so it's got a timeless potential. What's not to love? And did I mention the £30 price tag?

This week I'm loving this handbag from Topshop! It's a buy of the week and won't break the bank - result! Let's face it, we all love Topshop. But sometimes there seems to be so much stuff, nothing really gets my attention. But this beauty caught my eye straight away. This boxed shape has been in for quite some time and is here to stay. It's quite vintage looking but very contemporary too and is a definite timeless piece. I love!
