2015 in Music

Music is such a huge part of my everyday. I have been posting songs here and there all year so here they are all collated. Of course this is just the tiniest of snippets of what I listen to. You can follow the link to the playlist and find me on Spotify if you want to hear more.

Christmas Present

NYC- Exhibitions

Of course some of the best museums and galleries are in New York. Here a just some of the exhibitions that will be on display in Mid January. I am so excited about the Fairytale Fashion at the FIT Museum. Last time I was in New York they had the Lingerie exhibition on and it was so well done- garments all the way back to turn of the century to the most recent contemporary fashion. Definitely right up my street.

The MAD Museum are holding an exhibiton by Ebony G. Patterson which looks incredibly cool. You can read more about it from the link above.

NYC- Eat

Here's the first of many posts documenting my planning for NYC. I am going with Uni in January so it will be freezing- luckily it doesn't snow in the shops so I think we will be fine. These suggestions have come from endless guides and blogs I've been reading. Starting with food, here are a few cafes and restaurants I have been recommended- most I follow on Instagram.

I think New York, apart from Paris, has one of the best "trendy coffee" cultures. I love me an independent coffee shop so I will 100% be getting my java everyday. Instagram has made healthy trendy so I am really interested in theses, what appear to be, light and airy casual restaurants. As a pretty big foodie, I want to go because the owners seem really passionate about their business. But there is a small vain part of me that wants to go for the Instagram, but who doesn't. As the saying goes- If you had Avocado Toast and didn't share it, did you even have Avocado Toast?

Farfetch- Perfect Party Look

Dungarees- Le Ciel Bleu Top- Aviú Shoes- Rupert Sanderson Bag- Rochas Watch- Larsson and Jennings

This week I was contacted by Farfetched to create the perfect holiday party look. I am an absolute Magpie so I love this time of year, a party isn't a party without some sparkle. This all sequin Turtle neck is a dream. To of set the glam, I've gone for some tailored dungarees- also for dancing comfort. The elegant satin pumps add a touch of sophistication, they are very OTM. I fell in love with the Rochas clutch a while a go, those little encrusted bees are so fun yet so classy. I like to have plenty of room in a clutch so it fits the bill. An androgynous watch plays off the dungarees making sure it isn't too girly.

I could see this at a mulled wine kind of night all the way to a family party- it definitely has character. I would have such a happy holiday in this outfit.
