LFW SS14 Street Style

Posted on September 13, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

Where do I even start? I finished work at 3 and rushed to Somerset house… got caught in the rain and my feet still hurt but it’s all in the name of fashion. The aim of the game was to look effortless chic with and to find some fashionistas….. Tomorrow I am off to a show in the evening and I hope the weather clears up! I love love love London Fashion Week because the most stylish, weird, outgoing and cookey people are all in one place. There are no rule, wear what you want… be bold, smile, absorb the atmosphere and people watch!

I am wearing my new Aqua printed trousers, they are so fierce and as you already know I have a thing for print! I love clashing prints, mixing it up, wearing double prints and I don’t think this style will ever get old!

Due to the terrible weather I had to put my hair up, I wrapped part of the pony tail around the hairband to complete the look. My jacket is from Zara, my jumper from Forever 21 and my shoes from Topshop! I pinched my clutch from my sister in law (thank you Za Za) and surprisingly it’s from Next!

My lovely friend Chi came along with me, she looked super glam with her printed trousers…. uber cool shoes and amazing statement jacket! Chi has a blog too…. check out her blog here!

I love the statement red jacket, wearing a solid colour and adding a pop of colour always make a statement outfit!

Mixing casual urban style with a cute shirt creates a relaxed look also check out how amazing his trainers are! I have a thing for clean trainers, they look so fresh and the contrasting colour with the high-top shapes inspires me to buy a new pair of kicks!

I love her hair…. she looks so grunge yet pretty! A look which is very hard to pull off and her studded bag adds a dash of kick ass style to her outfit!

One of my favourite stylish people… Deigh Dwight Alexander Smith… he always looks so good so keep your eyes peeled he will be there over fashion week.

I love her jacket and hat… the cute hat is from Topshop… think I need to invest!

Neon fever…. this guys hat looks so cool! I think he made it himself!

The new style of mens fashion with the longer t-shirt and leather leggings reminds me of a mix Kayne meets the matrix! Love it!

Pretty in pastel and oooooo she is even wearing a Prada!

This guy was so cool, I want his waterproof cape he told me he got it from a charity shop for £15….. I want one!

The twins… and they are designers… how amazing are their digital printed dresses! I want to find out more about their brand so will be in contact with them soon!

Beautiful digital prints made here in the UK! ….. Amazing colours!

Oh my… her Prada and gold shoes… I think I want a new Prada now!! (Fashion envy moment)

Thanks guys….. my computer is having a moment so I haven’t uploaded any new videos for a week or two! I will be uploading my new fitness video this weekend and keep you up to date with the fashion show tomorrow! Don’t forget to spread the love….subscribe to my youtube and have an amazing day!

How I Stay Positive….

Posted on July 6, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

Life is what we make it, I can’t stop smiling! I made this video so I can share my tips of how I stay positive, I am being honest and this didn’t come from a course or a book… this came from experience! I have been through a lot in my life and I have finally found ‘me’! I don’t act a certain way to make others happy, I say it how it is and I love my life! I choose my friends wisely and share my personal issues with people I love and care about as I know they will give me the best advice.

Look at your life and the people in it, are these people bringing the best into your life or causing drama? Before we blame everyone else… look at yourself… what do you want in life… it’s your picture.. your story…. your painting it and writing the story so you get to include who is and who isn’t in it!

Everything happens for a reason and remember there is a lesson in everything! Be wise, smile, enjoy and don’t take it so seriously!

Have an amazing day, don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for my new youtube video on how I curl my hair…. new vlogs and a new haul! It’s summertime in London (finally)….. have an amazing day and enjoy life ! XOXO

Tatty Devine… MBA!

Posted on June 8, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

I love jewellery, it creates an outfit and makes you stand out! For the past few years I have been interested in creating a jewellery brand and realised that you have to have a unique selling point (USP) to make your brand stand out. For my dissertation I frantically searched the UK for jewellery brands to find a gap in the market to see if their was an opportunity to create a new one…. Sadly I found out that the jewellery I was interested in reproducing was already being created by other bigger brands… if I wanted to stand out I needed to become a jewellery design with unique designs…. The whole point of this background information was to explain that one of my favourite jewellery brands is Tatty Devine! They have been around for over ten years and recently got a MBA on Friday, both Harriet and Lucy went to Buckingham palace to receive their MBA. I popped into the store to order my new necklace but got sidetracked by the colourful merginues and giant jewellery! Have a looksie at the Brick Lane store, Tatty Devine is also available in Selfridges and online.

I managed to bag myself one of the limited edition Tatty Devine badges! Yay…

Flower Power

Posted on June 2, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

I am slightly obsessed with my new flower headband it’s pretty, pink and from Primark! I was sceptical about wearing it today but thought … hey why not, it’s sunny and I can be boho chic while I shop. We need to start bringing out our summer wardrobes this week as it’s going to be warm in London… and warm to the UK is about 20’c (sad times)!

In two weeks my brother will be getting married, I am frantically trying to get an outfit (multiple options) and figure out what make up and hair I should have so over the next few weeks keep your eyes peeled … there will be a lot of wedding prep tutorials and make up tips!

Top- Warehouse

Skirt- Primark

Shoes- Primark

Jewellery- ASOS

Headband – Primark

Have an amazing week and remember that life is what you make it.. in life things happen both good and bad and it’s what you do when the bad things happen that makes you the person you are! Chin up and remember you are amazing, smile because no one is worth you not smiling…the people that love you will always be there and make time for you… kick sadness in the face!

Quick and Easy Hair Up Do For Proms & Weddings

Posted on May 28, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

Ladies I am tired of having my hair in a bun so I have been looking at other ways to put my hair up and I created this super cute hair style. It’s so easy to do and all you need is a full head band that is elasticated. They have lots on ASOS at the moment or why not try and do this hair style and add a flowery head band on top. At the moment I have a little thing for RockNRose, their collection is amazing and I will be wearing some bits from them for the up and coming festivals.

Have an amazing day.. share if you like and don’t forget to love us on facebook, twitter, instagram, youtube and tumblr!

Terry De Havilland

Posted on May 19, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

I am always on the look for a new brand, something different with it’s own vibe! I can’t stand generic brands that filter the catwalk trends to their customers! I want something original and I found it…. FINALLY!

If you love shoes you are going to love Terry De Havilland, known as the ‘Rock and Roll Cobbler’ he is back with his exclusive store just off of Carnaby Street! Vibrant, full of colours, beautifully made with statement prints- and some of them even glow in the dark!

The SS13 collection stands for indulging, indulging in one’s love for pop art. With the charm of a Roy Lichtenstein painting and the visual stimulation of a Technicolor film, Terry De Havilland is easy to wear and brightens up any outfit.

I need these shoes in my life… think its time to make an investment! I have a thing for cobalt blue shoes!

Not a heel lover, check out their festival boots which range from £180-£250 depending on the design! I think the sparkle takes off the hardcore edge of the shoes and makes them versatile! How will you wear them?

Check out their full collection online or visit the store! I will be investing in a pair very soon! And if you haven’t already you really should be asking yourself “why haven’t I?”. Make a statement in this years seasons collection.

Have an amazing day and don’t forget to love us on facebook, youtube, instagram and twitter!

Think big to get big peeps

A Pink Affair

Posted on April 1, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

I attended a beautiful baby shower for my best friends sister over the weekend and the theme was pink… she is having a baby girl within the next few weeks and I couldn’t be more excited to welcome another baby into the family! I have never attended a baby shower before it was a new exicitng experience for everyone… I am not at the stage were I want a baby but I am so excited for my friend!

The theme was pink so I had a rummage through my wardrobe and found my cute pink dress that I bought last year from Zara, I initially got this for my cousins wedding but decided to wear the dress as a skirt and revamp it with a new top. I cleverly tucked in my t-shirt to make it look like a crop top and carrie like skirt!

My top is from Primark and only cost me £10… I was initially trying to go for a Celine oversized t shirt with the cute sticky out pink skirt but thought the digital print would have a better effect! I got my Shoes from Zara last year, but I always feel that everything from Zara is an investment piece…. well for me anyway!

I am a sucker for a pink theme….. it was so beautiful to see everyone in different shades and the mother to be looked amazing! We had games.. a drag queen… a magician….lots of food and a crepe stand! What an amazing event to welcome the new baby into world…. only a few weeks to go!

A few little presents for the new baby…. and if you know me you know I will always be looking out for a few fashionista’s no matter where I am! Check out some of the cool vibrant colours and style gurus at this event!

My beautiful friends …. how stunning are these ladies! MWAH

Beautiful Celine bag…. I need this in my life

What a cute pinky peach dress my friend was wearing with matching nail varnish and a nude pink hangbag!

All this pink made me so happy! Don’t forget to keep up to date with @IWANTYOURSTYLE on instagram … love us on facebook, youtube and tumblr!

Have an amazing day and keep smiling !

OOTD Techni Coloured Leggings

Posted on March 12, 2013 by iwantyourstyle

Well hello again… I have decided to crank up the fashion side of my blog…. someone always asks me where I get this or that from so I decided to try and post a daily outfit update! NYC is slightly warmer than London at the moment but still I need quite a few layers! I got these super duper cool techni coloured leggings from Topshop a few months ago and I still can’t get enough of them! Keeping them casual and mixing them with a tshirt, denim and leather jacket!
