OOTD: Staying Warm this Winter

It is freezing at the moment and I am lost in many layers of clothing.  This weather is kind of expected in January, so no surprises really. However, I intend to stay warm. It is so funny to see some people walking around in very little clothing. I wonder how they do it. Just so you know, I had my very warm winter jacket on standby while I took these outfit photos. So don’t be deceived by this outfit.

I took these photos some days ago while holidaying in Essex. We took a quick set of outfit photos on a Samsung phone since I decided to leave my Nikon Cameras at home. I must say, I am quite impressed with the picture quality on the Samsung phone. It is so amazing. I am an Apple girl at heart but lately the quality on my iPhone has left a lot to be desired. I am looking to get a new phone this year and I am not sure which brand to go for at the moment. Mu head says Samsung but my heart says Apple. What phone do you use?

I got this Merino Wool Mix Sweater by Damart some weeks ago. It is a new wardrobe addition I am seriously loving. I love the sparkle colour block design. It is one luxury piece I can style effortlessly and I like the fact that it can be worn day or night. I also feel dead warm inside it. It is such a quality piece. And great for those who plan to stay warm this winter.

The pair of leggings I have is also a new wardrobe addition. I got that some weeks ago, and I plan on getting some more pairs. A woman can never have too many pairs of leggings. I think leggings are one of the most versatile pieces ever and I am forever buying new sets.

Amara Christmas Wishlist

I love Christmas. There is something magical about the season. And the amazing snow we had a few days ago has made the season even more magical! I have been doing loads on online shopping these last few days. I have almost exhausted the funds in my account 😃. There are many items that need to be bought but I think I am nearly done now. Most presents have been wrapped, cards have been addressed and are being sent as I type. Groceries are in my online trolley, so things are looking up.

When it comes to Christmas gifts and all, I like getting them sorted early so I can spread the cost, and not get so worked up. I don’t like being stressed out over anything and with the Christmas craze, stress is usually waiting to fall upon anyone who is not organised.

I have come across so many Christmas Wishlist and gift guides post, that have inspired this Amara Christmas Wishlist post. You can get all items on the Amara Website.

 

Liberty London Women’s Indiana Blue Pyjamas

 

Pyjamas Image

 

I love the Indiana print here. It is such a beauty. I would love this set of pyjamas this Christmas. It would be a nice addition to my ever-growing collection of pyjamas. As a work from home mummy, I can testify to the importance of having as many pairs of pyjamas as possible. I find my pyjamas very useful.

 

Liberty London Women’s Indiana Navy Long Robe

This stunning beautiful robe matches the pyjamas perfectly. This robe is made from 100% silk and I love how the blue tones contrasts the navy accents. I think it is a gorgeous piece to have this season. I would love to receive this piece as a gift. It screams luxury to me.

 

Ted Baker Bronze Herringbone Suitcase – Medium

I love travel and I really like travelling in style. This lovely looking Ted Baker Suitcase ticks all the right boxes. It looks very sophisticated and the design is quite chic too. Also, this suitcase is lightweight and has four smooth rolling wheels providing 360°movement, ensuring ultimate ease when travelling. What is there not to like? I have a few trips planned for 2018 and I would love to travel with this beauty.

 

Joules Beau Leather Shoulder Bag – Chestnut

As a diehard handbag lover, this Wishlist would not be complete without a bag. This Joules chestnut bag would be a great addition to my bag collection. I love the chestnut colour and the slouchy hobo shape. It would be great styling this with a casual top and a pair of jeans.

 

 

Versace Les Étoiles de la Mer Notebook

As a writer, I am always with a notebook so I can easily jot down when inspirations strikes. So this Versace Notebook would make a nice gift. It looks super stylish and it is Versace. I have never had a notebook from a luxury designer before so having this would be a dream come true.

OOTD: Gucci Birthday Present

I took these photos while holidaying in Milan in January for my birthday. It was a lovely day, we were on our way to the shops when I decided to pose for the camera for Fashion and Style Police.

I got this Gucci GG Marmont Matelasse shoulder bag on my birthday as a present to myself, and I adore it. It is my first Gucci bag and currently the most expensive bag in my collection. I am very happy I have gotten to a point in my life where I can spoil myself every once in a while. I have always admired Gucci bags and always wanted one. So it felt insanely good to grab this beauty. Plus I like the new Gucci logo!

This beauty would be my travel companion. I like to travel with shoulder cross body bags so I have my hands free to grab my toddlers. And so I don’t worry about losing my bag or its contents to pick pockets. Only a crazy person would try to rob a bag across my shoulder, in front of me!

It is also a great accessory for days out, and when I can’t be bothered with my regular big handbags.

Shopping in a Gucci store in Milan felt good. Like all the other luxury shops, the attention you get from the staff is so amazing. The shop was so beautiful and the service I got was great. I felt like a real life princess.

The berry jumper I have on is also new. It was one of my birthday presents. I felt so warm inside it, and I love the unique tie cuff design. It is one of my favourite knit pieces this season.
