Have a Fetch Christmas

Rock On Ruby Sweatshirt 

Topshop joni jeans

River Island Boots 

I love this Fetch Christmas Sweatshirt by Dom 'n' Ink for Rock on Ruby - it's inspired by mean girls and is just a bit different to all the other christmas jumpers there are. It's not as novelty but is still festive and fashionable - and I've had loads of compliments on it! 

I paired it with my joni jeans and over the knee boots from River Island. These boots are such an easy way to dress up a basic outfit and are really warm and comfortable.

The Press Tent Event 30/11/15

Last Monday I attended #thepresstentevent which was a lovely event held by The Press Tent in Manchester's Northern Quarter at Yard & Coop (a really nice fox-themed restaurant). I really enjoyed the event and had a great time catching up with blogger friends and meeting new ones! 

There were lots of little brand stalls including Rock on Ruby, Artsynibs, Nickyrockets, Liquor 43, Depop, What Emma Did boutique and Jennifique beauty. Dom and Ink was also there, and he drew me another lovely illustration, and he also has a new collection with Rock on Ruby which is amazing so go and check it out! I picked up a few bits which will be appearing in videos and on the blog soon! 

I also had my nails done in purple glitter shellac by Jennifique Beauty at the event and I absolutely love them! I also got a quote written in Calligraphy by artsynibs, and lots of free nibbles and sweets! 

I had a great time at the event and it was great to see loads of brands that are usually online-only. Most of the brands were run by fellow bloggers too! 

If you're a fellow blogger, I'd highly recommend signing up to The Press Tent as the event was really good, and the organisers were so lovely and helpful! They also gave me a code for a free UBER ride which was a great taxi service - I'd highly recommend them! 

I also came away with a Blogger's review box, which I'll be unboxing on my Youtube channel tomorrow, although you can see a sneak peek in the picture above! 

Big Thanks to The Press Tent for inviting me to the event!! 

#TrendsIllustrated Blogger Event & Warehouse Urban Garden Party at Manchester Arndale

On Saturday I had the amazing opportunity to attend the #TrendsIllustrated event at Manchester Arndale. The amazingly talented Dom (from Dom n Ink) had designed an array of images and texts that were being printed onto t-shirts throughout the weekend. At the blogger event we had the opportunity to design our own tshirt using the designs, and the possibilities were endless. There were loads of different combinations to choose from, but of course I couldn't resist the unicorns and reindeers, as of course I'm an animal obsessive! I then went for a mint green background and the #ootd text, swirled my images around (that was a really cool feature) and my design was done! Then all you had to do was click done, and it was printed there and then! 

The tshirts are amazing quality, you can't tell that they're printed, the design is so seamlessly blended into the fabric, not sticky or cheap feeling at all. It was an absolutely amazing experience, and the best part is that no-one else has exactly the same tshirt! 

After the #TrendsIllustrated event, we headed upstairs to the Warehouse Urban Garden Party, where I got my hair braided by Toni & Guy in this amazing crown braid, and we took some selfies on the floral selfie wall! There was an amazing goody bag too, which you can see the contents of in my video below! I also had a 20% discount at Warehouse during the event, which I of course made use of, and after that I did a bit more shopping, so if you want to know what I bought, just watch the video below!

I also managed to get a quick snap of my OOTD. I was wearing Topshop joni jeans, Zara tshirt, Jack Wills rain coat, Nike trainers, Karl Lagerfeld bag, Urban Outfitters necklace, The Great Frog rings, Michael Kors watch, and my usual rings and earrings. (I wanted to wear my white converse and a lovely new jacket that I had, but sadly it was chucking it down with rain!)

It was an absolutely amazing day, a wonderful chance to meet new people, and see friends that I met at the last Manchester Arndale event. Thank you to everyone that made it such a wonderful day! x

Map My Heart.

Valentine's day is coming up, and I thought for the first time ever, I'd dedicate a blog post to something Valentine's themed. This is a book by Dom n Ink, who I met at a blogger event back in November (you may have seen his amazing illustration of me already). I bought this book back in December and have been thinking of how best to blog about it since, and thought Valentine's day was a pretty good fit.

I haven't filled mine in yet, but it's an interactive dating journal, that's really funny and has some brilliant illustrations. If you're stuck for a Valentine's day present, or like me, if you're single but just like quirky books like this, I'm sure you'll love it!

I think there's a bit of something for everyone in Map My Heart, there's some bits to read, places to draw, illustrations, little activities, and they're all based around dating. The thing I think is most unique about this book is that there's literally a section for everyone, no matter what your relationship status. I also especially love the unicorn patterned page.

I'm a big fan of books that you can pick up and put down at any point, or can simply flick through when you're relaxing, and this one is just like that. If you like journalling, or books like the wreck this journal, then I'm sure you'll enjoy filling this one in too.

So whether you're trying to find the perfect gift, planning something fun with friends, or spending the day by yourself, this book will no doubt keep you amused!

As with all cool books, it's available at Urban Outfitters (inthe US!), as well as book shops and Huck and Pucker (linked above) here in the uk !

Hope you're all having a wonderful day too!

p.s Dom, great job! x
