Animal Magic

I have a rather childish obsession with faux fur and knitted novelty animal hats, scarves and gloves. I realise that they sometimes do make me look like an over grown toddler, but I really don't care! My husband is well aware of this obsession, and tried to take it upon himself last year to choose an animal themed pair of gloves from Anthropologie - or what he thought was a pair of gloves. Bless him, they actually turned out to be two knitted puppets. A story, which has gone down as one of his best moments yet! Oh well, he tried, and now he knows only to go for ones, which I have already noted ;o)

Yes Darren...they are obviously puppets!
Every winter, I keep my eyes peeled and always seem to add a selection to my birthday and Christmas wish lists. I don't know what it is about them, but I just find them so cute and cosy. They also make me feel all Christmassy, which is an added bonus!

I love how the high street have picked up on the Spirit Hood phenomenon. If you're not aware of Spirit Hoods, check out my write up on them, which I did last year, here. You can now treat yourself to a snug bear hood, cosy teddy earmuffs, cute owl bobble hats and loads more.

I have done a round up of some of my favourite pieces below, and yes, I will be putting a couple on my Christmas wish list. Maybe not the Spirit Hood though, as they can set you back over £100!

What do you think of the animal accessory craze? Will you be putting any of these on your wish list? Enjoy x

Animal print earmuffs Accessorize £18

Bear earmuffs £13

Monday's Must Haves

I've got some real treats for you for today's fashion must haves!!

I decided to keep this weeks list down to earth and tres affordable, so hopefully you can all treat yourself to them! Keeping fashion real.

So, todays must haves include an absolutely gorgeous iconic skull ring by Alexander McQueen, which looks absolutely amazing when worn with your everyday wardrobe - a touch of rebelious bling! A fab pair of heeled chelsea boots in the perfect shade of tan by Topshop, which will look great worn with anything this autumn/winter season, a beautiful and oh-so on trend green pleated midi skirt, also by Toppers and finally, the perfect grandfather grey jumper by M&S! good old marks and sparks have really delivered with this must-have cable knit.

So there are my must-haves this week. What do you think? Would they be on your list? Enjoy x

I Heart Marks and Sparks!

I have been a fan of Marks and Spencer's Limited Collection for a while now. Each season they seem to present an amazing collection of fashion forward pieces, supported of course by the now famous M&S adverts - who doesn't love seeing Twiggy, Danni and VV prancing around in the latest collections?

This season, Marks and Sparks have once again delivered. They have focused on three of the best trends that SS11 has to offer - festival chic, seventies deluxe and super feminine. On the website they have created fab campaigns to illustrate all three of these looks, showcasing the individual products and showing you how to look less high street and more high fashion.

Palazzo pants with vibrant prints, chiffon blouses, bug eyed sunnies, fringed bags, leopard print harem pants, fluffy vintage style cardigans...the wish list goes on and on!!

I've put some of my fave pieces below, but snap them up quick, because they ain't going to last forever!

Enjoy! x
