As some of you might know, I have been working outside a lot selling my jewellery at Christmas markets and other outdoor markets around London. Sometimes I have to be hours outside and a warm outfit is essential.

I love the warm puffy coat I found at Karen Millen because it just fits great and has a tight neckline, so no cold air can get in. 

I usually wear my trusty American Apparel easy jeans as they are tight around the ankles so I can wear my two pairs of socks. I am nor really a sheepskin boot fan at all.

I actually think they make everyone walk in a funny way. But they are the only boots I found that actually keep me warm all day. I got mine a couple of years ago when they were on sale.

How are you keeping warm in the cold?

Top 5 Coats to Style the Cold Out!

1. Straight Cut Fur Coat from Mango £ 349.99 (Link!)

2. Marte Coat from Won Hundred £ 380 (Link!)

3. Double Breasted Wool Coat from Zara £ 69.99 (Link!)

4. Zulia Biker Jacket from All Saints £ 258 (Link!)

5. City Monument Coat from All Saints £ 278 (Link!)

I decided that October is a good month to research winter coats. Above are my top 5 favourite winter coats to style the cold out!

Number 1. is a real fur coat from Mango. I like the simplicity and elegance of it but I am not 100 % sure about the colour as I always find black is to harsh on me.

Number 2. is my absolute favourite! I love, love, love the design of this coat. All you need is grey or black accessories and you are very amazingly styled by just wearing this coat. I can already imagine myself pairing this with a black beanie a simple black scarf and boots. Unfortunately the price tag is quite a bit above my budget.

Number 3. seems really boring at first but this coat has an amazing colour and the price is unbeatable! I would jazz this coat up by adding a fur collar, a beanie and a tan coloured bag and boots. I really love those boots that I saw at Aldo.

Number 4. I love this biker Jacket from All Saints. It has the same look like that infamous Acne jacket everyone is raving about. I am not sure though if this will be warm enough for the winter months.

Number 5. I saw this coat last year in All Saints and loved it, It just drapes so beautifully around the body and is really high quality.

What is your favourite coat? Which one shall I get?

I am very close to either completely splurge on number 2 or go for number 3 and invest in those tan boots to go with it!

If I missed an amazing coat then please share below.

The little white dress - Weekend OOTD

In hot weather it's best to keep it simple!

Take a cute little white dress, add some colorful accessories (in this case the bag, nails and bracelet) and you are ready to go! 

I have to admit that I find the French connection sale one of the best. Their clothes are very high quality and on the pricey side but when there is a sale I always buy myself a couple of treats, such as this cute cotton dress (on sale now) and this beautiful silk maxi dress I got recently.

French Connection Seville Cotton Dress (on sale now), 

Whistles bag (similar, smaller one here),

Ring and Necklace was a gift

The sun has finally come out for a whole day in the UK. What better occasion that to wear a silk maxi dress for a Suday lunch with the girls. I waited patiently until it was on sale but I fell in love with this dress the first time I saw it. I really adore the pattern and the colour and the way it is made. I has a whole same coloured structured mid thigh lenght underskirt sewn in so it is not see through at all. 

I absolutely love it and will be wearing it lots with my rose gold bag and sandals. The perfect sunny Sunday outfit.

What did you wear this weekend?

Friday Casual OOTD

The dress code at my new workplace again is quite strict. Jeans and T-Shirts are not allowed and most girls there wear dressed and skirts. I am not so much the dress and skirt girl when it comes to my everyday wardrobe as I really don't feel that comfortable in them. I do like maxi dressed and skirts but we are talking business attire here :)

Still, when it comes to Friday I usually dress very casual and just rely on a blazer to make my outfit work appropriate. I always (even in during the rest of the week) make sure that I wear on piece that is a bit out there and has personality, such as pink shoes or bright nails for example! 

Mango Tuxedo Blazer, Old Diesel T-Shirt, Old French Connection Jeans, 

Shoes last season ASOS, Nails: A Good Man-Darin is Hard to Find by OPI 

Pandora bracelet, other bracelets by me

Later today, I will be off with Deniz to go to a Stylehaul event in Shoreditch. I will snap some pictures there to so make sure you check my instagram later :)

Hope you all have a great weekend!

So long...

Toni&Guy HairMeetWardrobe Blogger Event

Technically I am more of a Youtuber than a Blogger but thanks to my lovely friend Kelly (jellyminxthinks) I was invited to the HairMeetWardrobe Blogger Event.
I was never invited to anything (thanks Toni&Guy) so I was more than happy and excited to go.

Toni&Guy wanted us to have fun at this event and try out some new hair styles (from casulal to creative and classic to glamour). A hairstyle always is part of an outfit and so is the makeup. It was a fun night trying out new styles, makeup and clothes and therefore create a whole look.
Check out www.hairmeetwardrobe.com for more info or tweet @hair_wardrobe.

I ask for a wavy elegant hair style that would be easy to create at home. Watch the video below if you want to know how to do it.

Special thanks to Subrina who teached me loads of tips on how to achieve those elegant waves on a daily basis!

Before (straight from work)

After

The outfit to go with my hair was mainly from Monki (dress and jacket), the bag and belt were my own.
I wanted to create a casual yet elegant weekend kind of outfit I would wear. The lipstick was Rouge d'Armani in 400 and just had the most luxurious feel on the lips.

Thanks to Toni&Guy for inviting me! I had a blast as you can see :)

So long,
