InstaMonday


1. So many shades, so little time.. (I can hardly resist pink/purple nail polish)
2. Celebrating Friday night with a cheeky Cosmopolitan
3. Trying on a whole new outfit at The Dressing room St. Albans. Still some amazing sales bargains up for grabs - check them here
4. Picking up some beautiful tulips. Can Spring come any faster?!

Have a great week and a stylish day.

Miss Pink Abroad


If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you may have read that I had some exciting news to share. The time has come to reveal that next week I'm going to Czech republic for a few months.
I have been living in UK for nearly 13 years now and haven't spent much time with my family. My niece and nephew pictured above are now 7 and 5 and I can't wait to get to know them better and have a lot of fun with them.
My job allows it (it's online based) I felt I needed to get away for a bit, so I thought WHY NOT?
I'm planning to make a lot of little trips around Czech and abroad (it's in the middle of Europe - so convenient) and will be sharing it with you all. I hope you'll enjoy the journey with me.
 
Have a stylish day.

Kate Moss book

 

Kate Moss by Chris Roberts, Carlton, £16.99, available to buy online at www.carltonbooks.co.uk and in all good book stores.
 
Is it me or is everyone getting older but Kate Moss? How has she just celebrated her 40th birthday is beyond me. She looks incredible! I hope I look half as good at her age. In celebration of this special occasion a beautiful books has been released to celebrate her influence in fashion industry.
It's full of amazing photographs, from both her successful career and rock'n'roll life.
I have really enjoyed reading mine (not finished yet..) . It is a must have for every fashionista and will look good on any coffee table.
Oh I sure do love fashion books.
 
Have  stylish day.

Untitled

 
Excuse the unimaginative title, but I seriously couldn't think of one. Nothing in this outfit really stands out, but it all works so well together (in my opinion). I'm the biggest fan of timeless pieces that stand the test of time rather than one-season-hit-wonders and this is a great example of that.
I have to admit I was a bit cold wearing this outfit, but I just can't help dressing lighter when the sun comes out. Bring on Spring!
Top River Island, jeans H&M, coat Debenhams, shoes Aldo, bag Dolce and Gabbana, earrings New Look, rings YSL. Nails Essie Bobbing for baubles, lips Nars Schiap.
 
Have a stylish day.

InstaMonday


1. I'm loving pastels already. Can Spring come any faster? Valentino flats, River Island top and Chanel May nailpolish.
2. How cool is this pillow from H&M. I'm loving their Spring home collection. Ordered this and few more bits.
3. Sunday walk in the sunshine's ensemble: fur accents, pink and my Valentino flats.
4. I'm so used to carrying a big bag around that I sometimes struggle to pick just essentials for my mini Dolce and Gabbana bag. Especially when my keys take half of the space.. But a lippie is a must :) Love Nars Schiap
5. I was sent this beautiful book about Kate Moss and it's full of interesting read and amazing photographs. More about this later in the week.
 
Have a stylish day.

Great basics wishlist

2014 wishlist

Blazer Helmut Lang, leather jacket Muuba, handbag Gucci, jeans J Brand, sunglasses Prada, pumps Jimmy Choo, wrap dress Diane von Furstenberg

This year I decided to stick to quality over quantity and invest more in good quality basics. I've realised time and time again that I get much more wear out of stuff I spend a bit more on. That's not to say you can't buy great items on high street (Zara, H&M and ASOS being the winners), but sometimes it's good to invest. Some of these items have been on my wish list for a while.. I've finally purchased Helmut Lang blazer in sales and can't wait to receive it. I've got my eyes on a Muubaa jacket that I'm hoping to buy next pay day. And over the course of the year hopefully I'll add these to my wardrobe too. 
What are your dream buys for this year?

Have a stylish day and a good weekend.

I hope you're having a good Thursday.
 Hat, coat, skirt H&M (all old), jumper Virgos Lounge at ASOS, boots ebay, bag DKNY, rings YSL. Lips YSL Rouge Volupte 12.
