Sugar & Vice Giveaway!

This has been a long time coming, I've been chatting with the lovely girls over at Sugar & Vice since October. Finally I've sorted myself out and giving one of you lovelies a chance to win a gorgeous aztec necklace, who doesn't love some aztec? It's been a summer obsession of mine and luckily, the trend hasn't gone away over winter. Still rocking the patterns. I love the designs you can grab for very reasonable prices, they're so on trend. Yet they offer something so much more than on the high street. Quirky and different. So here's my little collection, my top picks, a personalised piece... and what your entering to win!

I love this! Thank you Sugar & Vice!

Here it is, a gorgeous Aztec Arrow Necklace. This competition will run for 2 weeks. It's open internationally, so please feel free to enter! If you'd like to pick up some other things now and like me are really, really impatient! Click here to go shopping. (They've got a massive sale on right now, so head over for some great bargains!)

Named and Shamed - Topshop

As much as I love the fashion forward ways of Topshop, the amazing shoes and fitted jeans. I hate the standard of the jewellery. The design is great and generally unique they are completely overpriced for the quality. An item you'd expect to last you at least 2 years since you paid around £15 for (triple the price in Primark) the quality is of the same standard. Every item of jewellery I've ever bought from Topshop has broken within the first 3 weeks. This isn't because I'm throwing it on the floor and doing a work out in them, they just never make the grade.

The final straw was today when I nipped into the sale and bought a gorgeous T I'd been eyeing up for a while. I found a huge range of cuff earrings which I am addicted to and purchased a dainty Aztec gem one for £2.50. Yes it was only £2.50 but they were selling this full priced not long ago so the fact it broke when I took it out of the packaging? Wheres the explanation.... 

The feathered one managed to be removed from the packaging without breaking, but I'm scared to wear it out of the house. Has anyone had a similar experience? Or am I just very heavy handed?

I'm going back tomorrow to see what they can do. I will let you know!

Until Next Time xo

Aztec In Autumn

I don't know about you, but for me layering clothes is really difficult. I can never seem to get warm enough without looking like the Michelin man! In a lot of magazines recently, layering up summer dresses is a new trend. It looks very girly but very cosy and warm too. Take 1 summer dress, Add 1 pair of leggings and 1 scarf. If needed also add gloves and leg warmers. Take 1 pair of boots and go. I took some prints to add some interest leopard and aztec, never thought they'd go together but I like it.

 What do you think? Too much or just right? No jewellery today, to tone it down! Another big statement for Autumn, well this whole year, Aztec and now Aztec boots. They are literally everywhere. I've seen them on other blogs, adverts, high street, designer, celebrities. Usually for a hefty sum too, but mine were just £25! Bargain and I love them. The heel has a large base which makes walking so comfy instead of punishing my toes.
