Fashion | Grey and Cream Vibes

 

Last week I did a spot of much needed retail therapy with my mum to Touchwood in Solihull.

I LOVE shopping, in fact I think I'm addicted, but I don't care, because I love fashion and everything about it, as you all probably know by now! I get excited by latest trends and colours, and find it inspiring for my own design work.

On rare occasions when I go shopping, I don't find much that I like but this time, I picked up all these beautiful items and as you can see on a theme of grey and cream. I really like buying items that match so I have an instant outfit and can mix and match in similar colours.

I mainly shopped these items from River Island..of course it's my fave! but my favourite piece is probably the embroidered crop top from New Look. It's so beautiful and bang on trend. I'm obsessed with the embroidery trend at the moment and can't wait to pick up some more pieces next time I go shopping.

 

 

Textured dress | River Island

 

Ribbed style long sleeve top | River Island

 

Embroidered Long sleeve crop top | New Look

 

Sleeveless knit tank top | River Island

 

Chunky Grey grid print scarf | River Island

 

I'm going to pack these wardrobe staples, for my city break to Barcelona next month and I will for sure be styling them up. I think the ribbed cream top would look lovely under the dress and tank top for a layered look and the embroidered crop top would be fab teamed with a leather skirt for the evening or even dressed down with jeans. Finally I cant wait to wrap up in the chunky knit scarf, perfect as a cover up on a chilly night or for travelling.

 

Grey and Cream - such a gorgeous colour combo for the summer and winter.

Style | A love for Peggy Porschen

So having the whole weekend off I decided to make the most of it and yesterday I travelled to London with my boyfriend to do a spot of sightseeing and relax.
I adore London, it's one of my favourite cities to visit and whenever I go I like to find somewhere different to see and add to the list of favourites. I love how London is unique and full of quirky shops, cafes and a place to find inspiration for my brand and blog.

I came across this beautiful little café called Peggy Porschen on Instagram and I've always wanted to try it out. Yesterday was my first visit and I loved it! It's based in a beautiful part of the city called Belgravia and although its very small and we had to wait for a table, it was worth it. Everywhere was so pretty and pink, with chandeliers on the ceiling and lots of different teas to choose from, which were served in pretty pastel cups and saucers with a matching teapot, not to mention the gorgeous little homemade cupcakes which I cant wait to try on my next visit.

It's definitely a place to take your girly friends or family.

Fashion | How to wear ripped jeans this season...

 

I love ripped jeans at the moment, I think they are so edgy and fun. Talking to my cousin recently, she came up with an awesome idea..why not wear pretty tights underneath?

As the weather is cold at the moment, I thought this was a genius idea. I want to wear my jeans but I don't know about you, I always feel the cold through them? So today I decided to try it out and find some lace tights to wear underneath, and it really does make a difference and you get to see the lace effect through the jeans!

You can be creative as you want with this style. I wanted to let the lace stand out through the Blue denim so chose Black. I cant wait to try more effects such as Black under white, coloured under denim, or fishnets or even printed tights if you wanted to be more daring.

I love layering in winter and I really like textures, so this is the perfect combo and you stay warm at the same time. Some things don't have to be kept for the summer...

Style | My New Year

 

10 days into 2017 and I wanted to share with you my new year and how I celebrated, but also my new years resolutions! For news years eve I wanted to go glam, as I celebrated in style with my boyfriend at a beautiful hotel and spa in Sutton Coldfield called The Belfry.

The venue was so glam and modern with chandelier lights, posh furniture with velvet cushions and a simple but modern décor. The spa featured a swimming pool, sauna and steam room with extras if you wanted a treatment. I liked the added touches, like nibbles with your drinks and everyone was dressed like they were at a film premiere. It was a fab night and I highly recommend it for a weekend away.

 

I chose to wear my gold shimmer skirt with a grey and gold lace top and then added glam accessories, so I chose my diamante choker, little patent black clutch and my gold strappy sandals. I wanted to add a pop of colour so I tried and tested my new YSL lippie in red! LOVE.

 

The evening was so nice and a lovely way to bring the new year in. we celebrated over drinks and watched a fantastic firework display. On new years day we woke up to a beautiful breakfast in the Ryder Grill and went on to relax in the spa. A perfect occasion if you ask me. I hope you had a great start to the new year and celebrated in style.

I want my new years resolutions to be - continue working hard to achieve my goals and dreams, getting my brand Rhona Anne more exposure, learn more about the world of blogging and think positive...for every negative there is a positive. Here's to a great 2017 and having lots of memories.
