There is nothing like the sound of St Pauls bells on a crisp Sunday morning. After staying in the city for a quick indulgent city break, Kieran and I took to the east London Streets to enjoy the sun. Even if it did come with ice cold gale winds. Not taking any chances with the cold I went the whole 9 yards and just piled on those layers. I think I did a good job of remaining stylish, I wore cashmere fur lined cape as a scarf, because a regular scarf just wouldn't do and I didn't want to wear the cape under my jacket as it just makes me look fat. Wearing oversized capes as scarves is s good way to get a new fresh look and add an extra layer of warmth. I also wore my vintage fur hat for £40 second hand this is one of the best items I have brought, from Canada to Ireland to the UK this hat has kept me warm through so many winters. Both items were purchased from iconic London markets, the cape from portobello and the hat from a vintage shop in Camden market which sells a range of 2nd hand fur.

Packing for Paradise
After spending Christmas in beautiful yet brutally cold Ireland, I truly do feel like I have well and truly earned this upcoming trip to Barbados. There is nothing like a little winter break to get the new year on to a winners track. Packing for paradise is so easy- I am literally traveling with hand luggage- in my small carry on bag- these are my loves:
1. Lace Bralette and Knickers from Ann Summers.
Why I am packing it : Great for wearing under shirts and crop tops, bralettes offer that sexy freedom that a conventional bra just can't. This beautiful crochet bralette set is everything. Black, chic and minimal is is the perfect light weight addition to a holiday wardrobe and also goes beautifully under a slip dress.

2. Juicy Couture Perfume.
Why: This perfume has a story on how it came to me. I was getting my eyebrows treaded and noticed the lady who was threading me had the most beautiful scent. I asked her what it was and to my suprise its Juicy Couture Perfume. Light, sweet and fresh it is the perfect Island Girl fragrance.

4. Charbonnet et Walker Pink Champagne Truffles

Lust List: 3 Stunning Lip Colours From Avon
Following the Avon Beauty Bus I discovered these three amazing lip colour shades that I simply must share.
First up is this stunning shocking pink called Magenta Flash. I am seriously not one for bright pink lipstick usually as I don't think it suits me, however this shade is lovely. Bright with rich undertones, it is the perfect way to add a pop of colour to a nude makeup look and love your lips with a bold shade. I think this tone would suit most skin types and is a great stocking filler idea for Christmas. You can buy online at www.AvonShop.co.uk
Next from the upcoming Matte collection are two colours I can't choose between. Since I have had these colours I have literally been alternating them both every other day.
The matte one is called All Natural, and I love purely because I am shocked to have found a nude shade that actually easily suits my skin tone. As my lips are large but not defined, I line with my Mac Spice lipliner and the two work together so beautifully. This colour is perfect for if you do not have large lips but would like to get that Jenner pout. This matte colour will be available in early 2016.
