When the weather gets colder, I usually go for dark shades of plum, red, blue or purple but I found this gorgeous coral nail polish my mum had recently bought and loved it instantly. It's a slightly neon and more coral in real life which unfortunately doesn't come up on the camera, no matter which setting I used! Drying time was surprisingly quick and I didn't even need the two coats that I used because the polish has the right amount of 'thickness' to ensure full coverage. Now all I need is a holiday to somewhere obscenely hot and sunny to wear this to.

Inspiration: Magazine Covers
As part of my project at university, I have to come up with an artefact that represents me as an individual. I wanted to find a way to display my interests and what I'm passionate about and as a result came up with the idea of creating a print magazine. I have spent the past month or so compiling a scrapbook for inspiration for content, layout and the general aesthetics for the magazine. Today, i've spent the day navigating myself around InDesign and looking at magazine covers to keep myself inspired. The whole process is going to be stressful but i'm excited to see how it's going to turn out!

Wishlist
These 'Micca Earrings' are gorgeous! Now that I have shorter hair, I've noticed how much earrings can brighten up your face.
Admittedly, I already have a pair of red leather trousers but these H&M Imitation Leather Trousers come in a shorter length!
Acne Velocite Oversized Shearling Jacket (sold out)

Candid Neon
H&M Neon Dress (dark turquoise version here) and Bag / Givenchy Necklace / Bershka Boots
I bought this dress months ago in summer but it wasn't quite cold enough for comfortable wear. The material is quite thick so I didn't need my jacket until much later in the evening. After uni, I went for a wonder around Southbank with my boyfriend Paul and managed to squeeze in a trip to Tutti Frutti in Covent Garden which is definitely one of our favourite places to go in London. I can't believe how quickly November has passed and can't wait to get that Christmas feeling. It doesn't really happen for me until a week or two into December - usually when I do the panic rush to get everyone's presents!

Watermarked
DIS Magazine's ad for Kenzo menswear, entitled "Watermarked", is guaranteed to put a smile on your face! Directed my Marco Roso, this brilliantly sarcastic film mocks the stock photography world full of toothy smiles, hand-holding and Abercrombie-esque models.

Winter Hawaii
Warehouse Bag / Urban Outfitters Jacket / Zara Top / H&M Skirt / Zara Boots
After some much needed breakfast at Cafe Rouge, we headed towards Greenwich market on the hunt for apples to accompany the mixed berries I had thawing away at home (boyfriend made crumble!). We must have come on the wrong day or time because the stalls were selling mainly clothing & jewellery, amongst other items. In particular, one jewellery stall stood out; the designer created beautiful pieces from silver cutlery, computer memory boards and old coins.
I don't usually like feminine prints but couldn't resist buying this skirt a couple months ago - the cut is amazing! In a bid to try and wear less monochrome recently, I tried these trousers on from Joy and was surprised at how much I liked them. I think i'm finally warming up the idea of having prints on my clothing, as well as my walls!
