The Suit Life | OOTD*

Hey beautiful people,

Firstly, sorry I'm SO horrendously awful at keeping up with a regular posting schedule. Trying to balance my new job, with blogging, music and seeing friends has been a bit of a challenge to say the least, but I think I'm finally settled and have a good system down! Anyway, today's post is a fun Outfit Of the Day featuring a gorgeous co-ord I was sent from NA-KD fashion, so I hope you love!

Island Hopping in Hvar | OOTD*

Hey beach babes!

Hope you're all well and have been enjoying our unusually lovely summer! As most of you will already know due to all my Insta spamming, I recently got back from the most glorious trip to Croatia. My gorgeous gal Lizzie and I visited Split and Hvar for 10 long days of drinking, debauchery and a little culture for good measure. 

We both only brought hand luggage with us (because really, who wants to fork out an extra £40 each way for a couple more pairs of shoes that you probably don't need anyway) so when packing, I tried to choose pieces and outfits that took up minimum space but provided maximum results - basically I proceeded to try on every possible outfit I was taking and sent over many a mirror selfie to Lizzie for approval. 5 hours later (I jest), I was ready. The cute AF outfit I'm featuring in this post is from Boohoo and I just LOVE LOVE LOVE it so I hope you do too!

Sunglass Sass | Getting Camera Confident with Feel Good Contacts*

 Hey friends,

Isn't it funny how a little bit of imagination can turn your brother's grubby uni garden (if you can call it a garden) into an edgy shoot location? Ok so as well as imagination you also need a few minutes to remove the empty beer cans from shot, but ah well...

I recently ordered these gorgeous Matte Black Bronze Polarised sunglasses from Feel Good Contacts. I love Polaroid sunnies because the frames are always really flattering shapes, but also they're anti-glare lenses, which is SO much better for your eyes than regular ones! I also love how the slight sepia tint on the lenses ties in with the bronze arms. So Fetch. My brother and I took these photos a few weeks ago and it got me thinking about how much more confident I feel in front of the camera when I have a pair of sunnies on, so I decided to put together a little post featuring a few of my tips on how to ace that photoshoot and just own it!

In the Fine Print | Style Spotlight: Prints!*

Hey guys and dolls!

 I'm back with another post from my Style Spotlight series; and today I'll be talking to y'all about prints. I was inspired to write this whilst doing some shopping recently in the Trafford centre in Manchester, where I came across some totally gorgeous printed pieces from Warehouse that I knew I wanted to discuss in a blog post! Also thank you to everyone that's messaged or tweeted me about my Style Spotlight series; I've been getting such fab feedback from you guys about it, and I'm honestly so glad you're all loving it.

I've scoured the internet for my favourite prints on the high street right now, so let me know in the comments below what you think of my picks, and if you've got your eye on anything right now!

Printed blouse AND funky printed wallpaper. Could this photo BE any more appropriate? (Spoken in the voice of Chandler)

#ShesTheDon | The Hottest Fashion Collab Right Now

Hey angels!

If y'all follow me on Instagram then you probably already saw, but I went to a pretty epic event with Boohoo on Thursday night. It consisted of one too many G & T's,  (who knew that was even possible..) Tiff and I cutting some shapes on the dancefloor, and an amazing performance from the woman herself, Stefflon Don. Boohoo seriously know how to throw a launch party, and the venue was full to the brim with celebs, press and a few bloggers, so I was totally honoured to receive an invite!

This is me en-route to London, in my fave Violet Black 'Brooklyn' earrings and a camo shirt dress. (Those edgy vibes)

Feeling Sassy in Slovakia | OOTD*

Hey my sassy señors and señoritas!

As you all know, I recently went away to Slovakia with my bae of all baes, Tiff. As well as exploring abandoned castles and eating ALL of the carbs; we (I say we, but the magician behind the lens @creatiffmedia should take the credit here) also took some pretty snazzy photos...

Cause you know, When in Košice!

Waiting for a strange drunk man to leave so I can continue posing. Obvs.

What You Saying? | Style Spotlight: Slogan Tees*

Hey Fashionistas!

I'm back with a lil post on a key trend I'm lusting over right now. I've been trying to set myself a rule of making myself wait two weeks (to be totally sure I want something) before going and buying it; but when shops like Zara have items in stock for literally 0.00005 seconds, that's not always possible. 

What I'm trying to say is, here's a list of stuff I'm loving right now, that I'll probably end up buying
all oƒ most of in the very near future. I'm really enjoying producing regular fashion content for you guys, so I've decided to make this blog post into a series, where each post covers a particular trend.

First up? Slogan Tees!

Have The Perfect Reykjavacation | Iceland Travel Guide

Hey beauties, 

As you may all have gathered by now, I absolutely adored my trip to Iceland. It's 100% a place I see myself going back to, probably in the summer to do more of the North and East sides of the island. We had planned to visit the breathtaking Diamond Beach, but as often is the case in Winter, the roads along our route were closed off due to snowstorms and avalanches. 

Honestly though, we couldn't have wished for a more perfect holiday, and I really feel like we made the most of our time there, and saw everything there was to see in Reykjavik and the Western side of Iceland! To be honest there were things I now can't unsee, but we'll get onto that later... For now, stay tuned for my absolute must-dos in Iceland's capital.

Cosy Chic in Reykjavik | OOTD*

Hey angels, 

I hope you're all keeping well, and are warm and toasty in your homes while the Beast from the East passes over the UK! I must say, having just been in Iceland where they receive mountains of snow every day, it is funny how useless and ill-prepared us Brits are at the slightest flurry.  

Ah well.

I'm back with another fashion post today featuring the most stunning and cosy Aviator Jacket from LOTD. It kept me so snug whilst in the sub zero temperatures of Iceland, I knew I had to tell you all about it when I returned back to the motherland!

I actually saw this gothic-style brickwork and thought - "This is gonna match my jacket, I HAVE to take a picture!"

Where My Galentines Gals At? | OOTD*

Hey lovers, 

Valentines Day is almost upon us, and as I'm eternally single, I'll be spending it by continuing on the Pancake Day celebrations with my gals. (Cause lets be real, Pancakes beat boys any day of the week). If you follow me on Instagram, you'll know I already had an early Galentines date with one of my long time besties, Hemma. We drank lots of yummy wine, ate far too much food, and she (being the excellent best friend she is) took a few snaps of me in this cute little combo from Boohoo!

Dare to Flare | OOTD*

Hey babies,

How are we all? I must say I was feeling pretty worse for wear when I took these photos, but this photoshoot with Leah was SO much fun that it instantly healed my self inflicted hangover wounds. She's looking for more bloggers to photograph too, and she's such a lovely girl and a gorgeous mumma to be! She'd researched all the pretty locations ahead of our shoot and I'm so happy with the street-style vibe we got with the photos!

The Tea Dress of Dreams | OOTD*

Hey lovelies, 

Oasis has been a brand I've admired for years, I remember being little and getting so excited when my mum wanted to shop in there, cause it meant I got to look at (and dream of owning) all their pretty dresses. Ten years on they're still the first shop that springs to mind when I need to find an occasion dress - be it for a night at the theatre, a family birthday, afternoon tea at Betty's... 

Another Day, Another Car Park | OOTD*

Hey lovelies,

I'm back with another fashion post! Yaaaaaaaaay! Last week I was sent some cute AF pieces from Tobi to style into killer outfits and feature on the blog, and I've been having so much fun shooting the images and putting the posts together so I really hope you enjoy.  

Before you start asking, "Who took these glorious photos Izzy?" I have to give a massive shoutout to Tiff at Creatiff Media for these beautiful pics. Obvs she's my bestie so I'm probably slightly biased, but she's an amazing photographer and I've been loving all the photos she's been taking of me! She's actually offering shoots now at a really good rate, so I'd definitely get in quick as she's getting booked up already!

In the Faux with Cari's Closet | OOTD*

Hey loves!

I was recently sent this beautiful faux fur coat by the Cari's Closet team and I knew the second I opened it I'd be featuring it in a blog post cause it's just so darn cute! It's also potentially the softest, fluffiest thing I've ever owned too, therefore I'm obsessed. (This was basically me when I first put the coat on...)

JORD Wood Watches | Review & Giveaway*

Happy New Year you beautiful people!

I had the most fun shooting the photos for this post so I hope you all love it as much as I do! I received this gorgeous watch a couple of weeks ago from JORD Wood Watches - a company I've followed and admired for a while cause of their creativity and uniqueness; so it was an absolute dream come true when they contacted me asking to collaborate on a blog post. They also very kindly asked me to host a giveaway - but more on that at the end...

They kindly allowed me to pick out a watch of my choice, and I went for the Frankie 35 in Zebrawood and Navy because it was just so striking. I opted for the 35 series because they're slightly more petite, and I didn't want the watch to look too chunky on my small wrists. 

Poolside Chic | OOTD*

 Hey angels,

I love an Outfit of the Day post as much as the next girl, but I rarely do them. Why? I've been asking myself the same question and I've yet to find an answer! I'm consciously going to make an effort now to create more fashion content for both my Instagram and my blog, so hopefully you'll see some more of that very soon! Today's post is a fashion-themed one (yay me) and contains a couple of gorgeous pieces from UKSwimwear that I wore during my recent trip to the Algarve in Portugal!

Is there something interesting on the floor hun?

Lingerie Lovin' with Little Women*

Hey honeys!

Apologies for being a little MIA lately, I've been working full time at Next HQ and trying to get into a good fitness regime, and have a social life, (I know, calm down Izzy) and I swear there just aren't enough hours in the day to fit everything in! If you're one of those people that manages to get their butts out of bed early enough to squeeze in a gym sesh/exercise class before work then I COMMEND YOU!!

April Lust List!

Hey guys!

I'm back with a one of my Lust Lists, and it's a bit of a random, impromptu post, that came to me a couple of days ago in Delilah whilst I sipped a soy Flat White (yes slightly excessive detail, I know I know). I quite frankly want EVERYTHING right now and so I'm hoping to curb the shopping addiction by writing about it, rather than buying it all. We'll see how successful I am. Now I'm going to try and keep the rose appliqué-laden items to a minimum cause I'm well aware they're on everybody's wishlist this month. But yes.

Going For Gold | GLITZBOX Review

Hey beauties!

So if you follow me on YouTube or Instagram, (if not then, what you playing at girl?!) you may have seen me talk a little about GLITZBOX. It’s a jewellery rental subscription service, where you pay between £39 to £59 a month and receive three carefully selected items of beautiful gold or silver jewellery. You wear these items for the whole month and then have the option to send them back, OR buy them, at a discounted price. Along with the jewellery you also receive Glitz Credit, which you can use towards one of your purchases. I’ve teamed up with GLITZBOX to show you what’s inside my box this month, you're gonna love it!

P.S. What do you think of the glittery flooring? I felt like it fitted perfectly with all this Glitz talk!
