I'm back!

After an overly prolonged break, I'm back to write and keep you updated on the beautifully, rose- tinted way in which I view fashion. Only the best parts of course, that's all we really care about, isn't it?
During my absence, I have been writing for a joint blog with two of my closest friends at bemsa.blogspot.co.uk so check it out! I'm the fashion features writer, however the blog touches upon all sorts of lifestyle aspects including food and beauty also.
I'll post soon and will be revamping the site for an all new look, exciting stuff!
Hope you've missed me!
Love,
the fashion apostle xxx

Star by Julien MacDonald

Hey hey! So, basically I was given a load of handbag samples from the designers and buyers at Debenhams so I thought I'd write a few reviews on them to share. Most of them are next season's pieces, however some are in store right now. Bear in mind that these are samples and therefore have been developed further, so it is likely that they will not be exactly the same on purchasing the item.

JULIEN MACDONALD
To start with, Star by Julien Macdonald has been a truly successful range at Debenhams since 2003. The current range in stores at the moment is very striking and sophisticated. This snake curved tote is in store right now for the selling price of £55 and you can buy it (here) It can be told from the photographs that there are slight alterations to the design on the gold plates and also the lining which is not pictured below.
This bag was one of my favourites from those of which I received because it's not a boring black, which my bags tend to be, and the snake zip embellishment isn't something I'd normally go for either. Snake is a definite trend for this Spring/ Summer, so if you haven't invested in a Summer piece as of yet, I recommend this. You can never go wrong with handbags, they can last years and you'll never grow out of them, they're an investment- well, that's what I tell myself every time I buy something over £50 anyways...


Thanks, Emily X

just hanging


Found this image on my PC from a project a couple of years ago. Still have every piece lying around my room. Especially love the white hair bow that I found in a cute little vintage boutique in the Brighton lanes!

A fairy tale world, up the road...



I felt as though I had walked straight into a fairy tale land far, far away... Perhaps Narnia fits the criteria perfectly?
