Hello my lovelies :)
As the days are getting colder and longer and christmas spending sprees are just around the corner, our fashion gets more and more cosy and thermal. Mostly wearing boots, black tights and trousers, our winter wardrobe is much more limiting than our summer ones. But there is a positive...christmas is coming soon - and we've already been discussing a christmas baking day and post for the blog, looking forward to it :)
 
Anyway, i decided to go for a slightly animal themed look for today, with a dog print blouse and leopard brint shoes...and of course, warm trousers. Paloma went for a more feminine look with a textured dress and her beautiful new heeled chelsea boots.
Quick question...what are you all asking for, for christmas, im stuck for ideas!!???
Love you all, Jess xxx

Hey everyone!
 
Yay, its friday, tomorrow we are off to see The Vaccines, so excited! Here is a little outfit post of what we wore today featuring my new favourite booties from Topshop, definitely left my purse quite a bit lighter, but kept telling myself they are an investment buy, and afterall you can never have enough boots right? Jess is wearing a jumper she bought from the mens section at primark last year, it looks so snug and cosy!
 
Lots of love, Paloma xxx

“In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.”


Studying the Great Gatsby for English lit this year has caused me to have a slight obession with anything 1920s, and with the film version of the novel out next year (cue flapper dresses, embellishment and a whole lot of Leornando De Capprio- ekk!). I am loving the 1920s-esque items that are in the high street at the moment, and whether it be a dress or earrings these Gatsby goodies are perfect for the glitzy party festive season.
I have chosen my favourite 1920s inspired picks from the high street, enjoy! Including a number of Forever 21 accessories, if you havn't yet checked out their amazing jewllery range, do, it is impossible not to come away empty handed! :)

Lots of love, Paloma xxx

P.S For anyone who hasn't read 'The Great Gatsby', you really have to, it is amazing!

I got my heart tied up now with a boom and a bang


Metronomy- Corinne

Hey everyone!

Me and Jess went to Wagamamas last Friday for a catch-up, this term has been pretty busy! I managed to eat all my noodles, with chopsticks! (quite a big achievement for me) plus, was too embarrased to ask for a fork! We also tried the Christmas lattes at Costa (our favourite place!), Jess had the salted caramel, and me the creme brulee latte, soo yummy and very festive. Too early to be talking christmas- probably- but as you can tell I am very excited! What about you guys?

Lots of Love, Paloma xxx

Paloma is wearing- Dress and boots- Primark, Belt- ZARA
Jess is wearing- Shirt and cardigan- New Look, Skirt- H&M, tights- M&S
Hey everyone!
 
Hope that everyone had a good halloween, what did people dress up as? This weeks twist on the trend went all gothic, as we attempted to style the 'vampy' trend which is very big for winter. I have never styled the gothic look before, and didn't really have much in my wardrobe to suit it, because it is a bit of my comfort zone, but it was really fun styling the trend! I loved in particular wearing a darker shade of lippy than I normally would to fit in the trend, and will definitely be sporting 'oxblood' lips again this winter! Hope you enjoy the other girl's twists on the trend, be sure to read more over on their blogs!
 
Lots of love, Paloma xxx
