Remember me? Probably not, I haven't had the time to post due to the Christmas festivities. I didn't get finished University until the 20th which meant I had so much to catch up with as soon as I ventured back home to Edinburgh. Thankfully I have caught up with the family and started work again in Monsoon. 

Anyway lets get back to the point of this post - STREET ROSE. I stumbled across this website via twitter and completely fell in love with their variety of bracelets. The lovely team sent me over a couple of bracelets, and the other two I received for Christmas from my mum and boyfriend - I guess they were reading my blog posts after all! 

Three of the bracelets have a magnetic clasp so are super easy to put on, which I especially love, the worst thing is buying a bracelet that you can't actually put on yourself. You can just snap these on and away you go. They are one of my favourite accessories this year as I have been wearing them non stop, small enough to wear them as an everyday casual look, but also cute enough to wear to something fancier.

Street Rose

So I stumbled upon this website the morning and thought it would be another great new website to get new and different things from. I love finding new clothing ideas that no one else is really into yet, don't get me wrong I love Topshop, but I hate the army it creates. Everyone wearing the same thing - clones are not my thing. 

Street Rose is a new and upcoming fashion retailer trying to bring fresh and innovative designs to people who want it the most. As of right now the company has a range of t-shirts and jewellery. You can check it out here.

I am in love with their range of bracelets and my bank account will take a hit after I order all my favourites. I am a huge jewellery hoarder, anyone that knows me can see the huge amount that spills out of my jewellery boxes. Here are a few that I am hoping to get once I get paid. 

Black Leather Turquoise Bracelet - £20

 Turquoise jewels are my favourite thing in the world. I really have no idea why but somehow they are. This bracelet is so great because it has a magnetic clip to easily put on without any help - I find putting on some bracelets really difficult so this is a great way to fix that problem.

Tan Leather Bracelet (Limited Edition) - £15

Leather bracelets are always my first preference when I am choosing bracelets. They last way longer and don't end up turning your wrist green, which is always a winner in my book. This tan colour always matches almost all of my wardrobe and can be worn casually or on a night out.

Swarovski Black Suede Crimson Crystal Charm Bracelet - £20

This is my favourite out off all the others on the website. I love the multiple bands and the heart crystal makes this the perfect present to give as a gift, or just to keep for yourself. You can also buy this in a clear crystal too. They look great layered on top of one another.

I am totally loving Street Rose.

Maroon & Black

So I have been really into the Accessorize jewellery at the moment, most likely is because all I do is play with it and the Monsoon clothes all day when working. But I think this necklace is fab! Silver goes with a huge amount in my wardrobe and it's the perfect size for wearing with everyday casual pieces. This is just my typical work wear, I live by these jeans currently as they are so comfortable to wear and the pattern is really different too, which I loved.

I also apologise for these awful photos, they were really quickly done just before I nipped off to work. My face isn't always this ridiculously bad.

Accessorize AW13

After being constantly surrounded by hundreds upon hundreds of rings, bracelets and necklaces at work all day long, it was only a matter of time before I gave in to buy majority of the stock. I have been getting really into adding accessories to a simple outfit to give it just that little bit more punch and flare; and with Accessorize's recent AW13 Campaign with the gorgeous Tamsin Egerton I have completely fallen in love with nearly every piece my work has to offer. So here is a round up of my favourite picks from the new collection.

    £14.00                                                                                                 £29.00

£8.00                                                                                                    £19.00

£12.00                                                                                                               £22.00

Remember that if you are a student you can also get 10% discount online and in-store! You can't beat a little money off, that's for sure. What do you think of my mini Accessorize picks?

Accessorize Haul

For one of my summer jobs, as you may already know, I am one of those sales assistants which you will find in the lovely Monsoon and occasionally, if they need me, Accessorize. By spending majority of my time in the stores I always leave with list upon list of items I want to buy. So here is a wee look into what I actually caved in and bought.

First up we have this gorgeous duck egg blue Hamsa necklace which is so delicately decorated. I have always been interested in Indian and the east jewellery as well as fashion, which is one of the many reasons why I am so interested in Monsoon as a company, I find it all so colourful and very visually interesting.

When getting ready for work in the store, I love the feeling of putting on the current trends and accessorises that line the racks and walls, and always feel so grateful when customers compliment the dress or top I am wearing from the collection. These bracelets go wonderfully with nearly every outfit, and the market style feel of them makes every set look different. The little charms that fall from it are charming and very cute, with one even being a little donkey.

As I am thinking of hopefully jetting off at the end of August I thought this travel document would be perfect for storing all my details! When flying I always like to be extremely organised or get a bit worked up - oops. With three separate compartments for documents, passports and tickets, I think this should to the trick. And not to mention 50% off in the sale, I only snatched this for around £2.

And here lies my last purchase, which could also be my favourite. 

Since considering my holiday abroad - hopefully to the sunny Spain - I concluded after much thinking that I would need an everyday bag which could also double up for using on the flight. We all know you can never get on a flight without a HUGE carry on bag. So I have tried to venture for a smaller than usual shoulder tote. Which is surprisingly much bigger than expected and defeats the purpose of my purchase - but I'm still keeping the bag. I fell in love with its details and embroidery, and with added tassels too, how could anyone resist? My advice - go buy it now too, money very well spent.
