Ear Cuffs

I realise I have written alot about jewellery recently, but bear in mind the right jewellery can complete an outfit! As I wrote before ear cuffs are becoming very popular so below is the on I purchased and the link form where I bought it.

Yes, I did buy it from ebay. However, there are some really interesting and unique pieces on this online retailer AND at fractions of the price that the high street are selling them for. We all love a bargain! Below are a few of the more interesting designs. (I especially like the skeleton's fingers)

Punk Jewellery

Ear cuffs, chains, ear tunnels, spikes, skulls and symbols. They are all around in the spring jewellery collections. Topshop are setting the leather and spike pathway to which other high street retailers are following.
I teem my punk jewellery with soft pastels and denim (this season's trends) but it can be worn with virtually anything to give a kick to an outfit. Here's some of topshop's best but have a look for yourselves:

Hearts a Mess

Gotye. Another one of my absolute favourite artists - and for the record I found him before he became big.

'Somebody that I used to know' has shot high up into the charts, with many people calling it 'the re-awakening of real music'. The song provoke deep emotion from Kimbra's and Gotye voice, the music video is compelling to watch and its one of those songs you can't help bursting in to song with.

'Hearts a mess' is beautiful. Listen to it now.

BEWARE: The songs grow on you until you become addicted to them.

Check out his other songs and albums aswell.

To keep away the vampires

Cross jewellery is bang on trend right now, I have purchased apar of earings from River Island - costing only £3.00 (see below). I really like them as I think it adds an edge to lots of outfits.

It may be mainstream, but it still looks good.

Adding some more posts about this punky new jewellery soon. xoxo

Scarf Print

I  really love my silk scarf, so I am overjoyed that this spring scarf print has come into many high street stores. Topshop and H&M are modelling the trend well but River Island are taking the lead in my opinion. Here are a few of my favourite examples from RI:





If you're feeling bold leggings, trousers or dresses (which I am a fan of) in the scarf print are an eye-catching style. However, I like to team my scarf print top with a leather jacket and leggings.
