Hello huns! So usually I am without question a “button up your shirt right to the top” kinda gal. However, recently I am really loving wearing shirts unbuttoned just enough to be still decent and adding choker to balance out the open collar. Similar story to my revived love of V NECKS with CHOKERS so sarry to bore you but I just like this outfit ok?

This choker from ASOS is lovely and seventies and is more casual than the one I was rocking in my last post. Also lucky for you that even though these boots are super old, DUNE still do pretty much the exact same ones.

What unusual fashion tactics have you been doing recently?

Coucou! Alors normalement je porte des chemises avec les boutons fermés jusqu’au col. Mais, récemment j’aime bien ouvrir le col et ajouter un ras-de-cou avec pour équilibrer le col ouvert. C’est une histoire similaire à celle que j’en vous ai parlé de mon amour avivé des COLS EN V portés avec des ras-de-cou. Du coup, désolée pour vous ennuyer mais je kiffe ce look, ok?

Ce ras-de-cou qui vient d’ASOS est super années 70s et il est plus décontracté que l’autre que j’ai. De plus, c’est bien pour vous que même si mes bottes de DUNE sont super anciens, il fabrique toujours une paire presque pareille.

Quelles approches de mode faites vous récemment?

Hello my lovelies! How exciting – the first outfit post of 2016 and it features some ASOS newbies that I picked up over Christmas. I spoke about aiming for some regularity to my blog posts in my 2016 GOALS post so I have that decided that on Mondays (but not exclusively on Mondays) I will bring you guys new OOTDs.
Now let’s get talking about these amazing ASOS bits! I have been after a silver shopper bag for a while now so when I came across this ASOS one, I popped it on my Christmas List just hoping to find it under the tree come Christmas day. And that I did. The colour is perfect and size is great for both everyday use and travel hand luggage (plus it’s only £20!). These boots I ordered for myself (woopsie) as a Christmas present. They are a great take on the classic leather chelsea boot and they are now in the sale so go go go!
Coucou mes choux! Et voila c’est le premier look de 2016 et il contient des nouveaux d’ASOS. Dans mes OBJECTIFS 2016, je vous ai parlé du fait que je veux un peu de régularité avec mon blog du coup j’ai décidé que les lundis (mais non seulement des lundis) se sont réservés pour les looks!
Allez, on parle de ces pièces magnifiques d’ASOS! Ça fait longtemps que je veux un sac argenté alors quand j’ai vu celui-ci sur ASOS, je l’ai mis sur ma liste de Nöel et j’ai espéré! Heureusement, je l’ai eu de mon père et je l’aime trop! Sa couleur est parfaite et sa taille est géniale soit pour la journée soit pour voyager. Ces bottes – je les ai acheté pour moi-même et elles sont en soldes – allez allez allez!

Blogging Outtakes 2015

Because it is good not to take yourself too seriously. Because it is good to be able to laugh at yourself. Because it good to share the unglamorous side of blogging and the amount of terrible photos there are behind the ones that make the selection. Here are my blogging outtakes 2015 – the good, the bad and the downright weird.

Just totally distracted by the best photo-bomber EVER.

Parce que c’est bien de ne pas prendre soi-même au sérieux. Parce que c’est génial de pouvoir rigoler à soi-même. Parce que c’est bien de vous montrer la côté non-glamour de la vie d’une bloggeuse et les photos qui ne sont pas prises pour la vraie poste. Voilà mes chutes préférées de 2015 – les beaux, les moches et les super bizarres.

So as you can see – it has been a Christmas filled with lovely presents, lots of cracking food and the most beautiful people. It all goes too fast though doesn’t it? Already I am heading back to Barcelona later today and even though I know I’ll be fine once I’m back there, being in Bristol does make me want to just stay in Bristol. 
Anyway, onwards and upwards! The new year is coming with lots of exciting possibilities and decisions to be made! But before all of that, look out for my final post of the year – blogging outtakes – in a couple of days time.
