Dungarees 90210

Dungarees: Forever 21 // Crop Top: ASOS (Brand: Warehouse) // Converse PLAY Comme Des Garcons: Forward by Elyse Walker // Sunglasses: Wild Pair // Watch: Michael Kors 'Chronograph' // Bracelet: Monica Vinader 'Fiji' // Ring: Karen Walker

It is summer holidays for me so I have a fair bit of spare time on my hands inbetween work, and I have been spending A LOT of it watching Beverly Hills 90210 from the 90's, partly just for the fashion (but also for Brandon Walsh...naughty) and it's making me wish I was an 80's kid - hence the dungarees and striped crop. 

I am obsessed with dungarees and playsuits at the moment and this is my newest little pal. I think they look so cool and trendy, but also super effortless and easy to style.

My converse are also another new staple in my summer wardrobe for pretty much the same reasons as the dungarees - effortless and cool, not to mention they go with EVERYTHING. And with all that said I'm off to get my daily fix of 90210.... ;)

How do you get your fashion inspiration? :)

Monica Vinader // Fiji Bracelet

Here is my cheeky, CHEEKY splurge from this month, oohh how pretty! For a good couple of weeks I couldn't decide whether to take the plunge and buy this bracelet, but then I decided that if I was still drooling over it after that long it was worth it. There are so many colour variations of the Fiji bracelet on the Monica Vinader website that it did take me a while to choose. I ended up going for the sterling silver as my other 'every day' jewellery is silver, although the rose gold ones look amazing as well. When I first started looking at them I thought I would get the cream cord, but then figured that if I was going to have a naughty splurge then I might as well get something a little bit different and bold - hence the fluoro pink, which is actually the nicest shade! I'm sooooo happy with it, the quality is very good, the silver is really shiny and polished and the pink gives it a little pop of color. Now, could we take a moment and just appreciate the packaging of this wee treat? It is literally the nicest packaged item I've ever received. Layers and layers of MV embossed tissue paper, a gift card, a gift bag, more tissue paper, and the wee magnet lid box - oh the small pleasures in life! All in all I feel pretty damn special wearing this bracelet, the only downside is that now I have visions of lots of these stacked on my wrist, in all different colors...dangerous territory.

Anyone else out there love themselves a bit of Monica Vinader? :)

A Bit Of Sparkle...

I have developed an absolute obsession with Monica Vinader jewelry in the last couple of weeks, it's so simple, and so damn pretty. The 'Fiji' bracelets, in particular, seem to have taken over my life. Now, I can be one to exaggerate, BUT on this occasion it's all got a bit out of hand and I could not stop myself and I ended up making a wee order from the site.

I must say that I am not really one for 'high end' jewelry. I have a couple  of Karen Walker pieces (both little animals - another obsession) and they are my staple hints of glamour on an everyday basis...oh the exciting life I lead. What I wanna say here is that, it rarely happens to me that I fall in love with a more expensive piece of jewelry, so when it happens I know I'll love it and wear it forever. I think that's why I love these pieces so much, they are so simple and timeless yet unique and pretty.

I am so damn excited for my Monica Vinader package to arrive...literally cannot wait! Eeekk

Anyone else have an unhealthy obsession with Fiji bracelets??? :D
