Accent by Claire Requa

A few weeks ago I got sent an awesome set of acrylic jewellery from Accent by Claire Requa. These are the items she sent me, and I totally love them! 
They are so fun and surprisingly wearable, even with the slightly odd bulky shape. I have been wearing them mostly to work so haven't had time to take and outfit shot with them yet so thought I would give you a quick post about the other items she has on offer. But I promise I will incorporate them into my next outfit post!

For now here are the other items she has to offer plus check out her website for much much more!
Ring $20 - Bracelet $45
$26
$140
$34
$56
$355
What do you think? Do you like her designs? Would you wear them?

I think Acrylic is a great item that is slowly being introduced into the fashion world! And expect we will be seeing more of it over the coming years as it is so versatile yet durable!

This is not a sponsored post, I was sent the items as a gift, all opinions here are my own.

Sunday Catch-up - From my birthday!

Ok so its like the second week of June and my birthday was weeks ago! But I still haven't updated you all on what I got. So this weeks catch-up is a catch-up on my birthday as I have actually taken very few instagram photos this week due to too many work hours (and now the fact I broke my iPhone screen!)

This is what my parents bought me!
Ok so they didn't literally buy me La Sagrada Familia - but they did buy me and Jon a 3 night stay and flights to Barcelona! Whoop! Very Excited! I shall be going at the end of August.

My sister bought me this!
Isn't it super cute!

And of course Jon bought me all of this!!
 2 beautiful pairs of Ruby Shoo's

 And 2 amazing Hell Bunny Vixen Dresses! Eek!

So there you have my birthday presents! I think I was a very lucky girl this year!

Best of British

With the Jubilee and the Olympics this year, there is no better year to be British. So with that in mind I thought I would bring you a nice little post about 2 of my favourite and most well known British Brands.

First is Orla Kiely - an Irish label now based in London. Orla is most well known for her eye-catching retro style design prints which can now be seen adorning almost anything, from bags, stationary, home wares and even buses! She originally started as a hat designer but moved into handbags and design after selling her University leaving collection to Harrods. Shop Orla Kiely at Harrods.

Second is Nicole Farhi - Ok so she isn't actually British, she is actually French but the label was started in Britain with the help of Steven Marks under the French Connection label. Started in 1982 meaning she is celebrating 30 years of the label this year. She is another designer who started with clothing but has since branched into all aspects of design. 
This is a perfect Summer Outfit, so cute and chic.


 Who are your favourite British designers?
Are you proud to be British this year?
