Wrap up...

Choosing the perfect winter coat can prove tough, particularly when there are so many amazing designs out there.

First, you should start by choosing your style - whether it be a parka, a boyfriend coat or a cape there is something suitable for everyone.

Once your preferred style has been decided it's time to get down to the fun part - shopping the perfect design. Here I have selected a few of my favourite pieces for autumn/winter 2013/2014 to inspire you:

Christmas time...


Christmas is rapidly approaching so I thought it was about time I put together a few ideas for potential party ensembles.

Although it is still only November, everybody appears to be getting into the Christmas spirit a little earlier this year. Maybe it's because the days seem much colder than in previous years and we're already hearing news of potential snow up and down the country, or could it be as a result of the copious numbers of Christmas ads which have embraced our screens recently?

Oh well, rather than complain, I say let's welcome it with open arms with the purchasing of a whole load of new clothes.

For the Christmas party season Topshop has some beautiful pieces in including my personal favourite, the ruby sequin jumpsuit - as seen here sported by Jourdan Dunn on the Unique catwalk:

Topshop Unique, £350
 
 
If the jumpsuit isn't for you then maybe one of these stunning LBDs might be:
 
 
AllSaints, £198
 
French Connection, £120

Zara, £45.99

Zara, £69.99
 
And of course, the shoes. Now I'm all for an ankle boot at this time of year, like the stunning pairs I've found below:
 
 
Topshop, £125

Carvela, £85

Topshop, £130

Topshop, £72
 
 
But if you're more of a classic court kinda gal, then here are a selection of my favourites on the high street at the minute:
 
Kurt Geiger, £250
 
 
Kurt Geiger, £250

River Island, £40

Topshop, £62

Topshop, £90
 
Have fun shopping.

Merveilleux Paris...




Last month, courtesy of my lovely boyfriend Simon, I was whisked away to the beautiful Paris.

Quite possibly the most wonderful city that I have ever visited, Paris has everything from incredible architecture to chic cafes and of course it's the fashion capital of the world.

There truly is something for everybody in Paris. If you're looking for designer stores then Avenue Montaigne is most definitely for you. Home to the likes of Chanel, Harry Winston, Dior and Louis Vuitton it's a beautiful part of the city and a must see.








For high street retailers then head to the Champs-Elysees which has a whole host of shops including Zara, H&M, Banana Republic plus many more.

And of course the Latin Quarter - located within a close proximity of Notre Dame, the area features rows and rows of cute cafes, cool bars and some wonderful vintage shops.



Aside from a whole lot of shopping we hit great attractions which I would definitely recommend including, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame and Sacre Coeur - where you'll find the most stunning view of the entire city.

Anyway, rather than ramble on a little longer, I thought I'd post some more of my favourite photos from the trip - enjoy!
