Valentines Day Inspiration

Hey hey!

Since it’s Valentines day next week, I thought I would help you girls out with date night ideas- whether it’s with your girls or with that special someone. Also boys, if you are struggling to get your partner a present, I’ve got you covered too!

So lets start with date night outfits…

How cute is this Missguided co-ord outfit? Wear it together or just pick one piece and match it with something else!

Mesh shirts are my new favourite thing! You can wear a plain top underneath or show off a cute bra! This one is from Topshop and I love the pussy bow detail.

You can’t go wrong with a LBD from Zara

The bandeau detail on this Pretty Little Thing jumpsuit is to die for!

Now lets talk lingerie..

I am a self- confessed underwear addict and have extra drawers in my flat just so that I can store it all- so I like to think I am at least a little bit knowledgeable on the subject! Whether it’s for you’re other half or you just want to treat yourself, I’m going to show you some of my favourites.

I have decided to choose red and black lingerie as I think for Valentines day, those are your best picks! But if you want some other colours most of the lingerie I picked comes in alternative colours- so go for it!

Anything personalised is a fab idea for a present! Not on the High Street is great to find personalised gifts.

I hope you enjoyed reading and have a fab Valentines day whatever you are doing!

Love, Rachael xx

London Street Style

London Street Style

Hey everyone!

I hope you are all enjoying the festive period and indulging as much as you can!

I just spent a few days in London doing some shopping and sightseeing. Whenever I am in London I love people watching and seeing what everyone is wearing- the London Street Style is so chic and diverse!

On the first day of shopping I wore a very casual outfit for shopping on New Bond Street.  We visited Chanel, Louis Vuitton and of course Victoria’s Secret! When it comes to shopping I recommend wearing something that is comfy and easy to take on and off for when you are trying clothes on, like jeans or a dress.

Here I am wearing Topshop Jamie Jeans, a Zara Striped shirt with a plain black jumper on top and an ASOS grey peacoat. One of my new favourite bags worn here is from Zara.

On the second day I wore my favourite faux fur coat I got from TK Maxx 2 years ago. I always love going into TK Maxx in the winter as they have the most amazing one off coats that can instantly make an outfit stand out. Faux fur coats do exactly that as you can wear an all black, plain outfit but as soon as you add some fur, the outfit becomes way more interesting.

My boyfriend bought me the bag I’ve been wanting for ages from Dune for Christmas, so I was very excited to wear it with this outfit!

My skin has been horrific recently (probably due to all the wine and chocolate I have been eating) so when I was in London, I didn’t want the pollution to make my skin even worse, so I went for a really simple, minimal make up look. This meant my skin was less clogged up and could breathe more.

I finished off the look with some cat eye sunglasses from ASOS!

I hope you all enjoy your NYE celebrations and see you in 2017!

Love, Rachael xx
