Bedroom Inspiration

I have been using Polyvore recently, putting together ideas to decorate my bedroom. I am especially loving the combination of greys, mauve, dusky pink and copper, which, inevitably  have been the colour palette that I have been working with.

BEDROOM 1 - The marble canvas with the copper swirled into it matches perfectly with the grey marble print cushion, giving a contemporary feel to a soft girly styled room. I love the 'More Issues Than Vogue' print, I think it adds a nice touch and would bring personality to the room.

BEDROOM 2 - Taking on more of a grey and lilac influence, this idea evokes luxury and warmth. It almost makes you want to jump into the screen and snuggle up in fur throws and light up the candles, perfect for this time of year, as the nights grow in quicker.

BEDROOM 3 - The copper light fixings are my favourite items in this room, I think they add a great touch to the perfect mixture of pale pinks and greys.

You can find these sets over on my Polyvore here.

Style Post | Long Boots

Long, over the knee boots are this season's must have, and if they elongate the leg then what's not to love?!

I've been loving Pinterest this week to get some inspiration of how to style long boots, below are a few images that I really like.

You can find these, along with other pins, over on my Pinterest board here.

After gathering some style inspo, I decided to put together a couple of outfits of how I would style a pair of over the knee boots!

TALKIN' TASSELS - This outfit is all about the tassels, keeping the colour scheme to two base colours allows for the extra detailing of the boots and bag. Long, chunky knitted socks and a pair of tights would also look great with the pinafore and boots.

SINGIN' IN SUEDE - The suede accessories give this outfit a definite nod to the 70's, the blue on the dress is a nice contrast with the brown earth tones.

An alternative to try first, if you are a bit scared to don the long boot or like me and not too sure whether the look will suit, is to wear some knee high socks with a pair of ankle boots. They will still give you the overall look of a long boot, but if you lose confidence throughout the day you can roll down the socks.

What is your favourite way of styling a long boot? Let me know in the comments.

Autumn Accessories

Autumn almost feels like it's here, I feel like now is the time to dig out the coat and get ready for chilly mornings!
September is my favourite month of the year (not just because it's my birthday :D ), it's when you realise it's time to pack away the sandals and immerse yourself in the autumnal trends.

I thought I would pick out three of my favourite accessories that are sure to be a hit right through into winter!

A BERRY LIPSTICK
The perfect way to transition from summer is to swap up those pinks and brights for a dark plum/berry colour, this adds an instant autumnal feel to any outfit!

LONG BOOTS
Long boots, either over the knee or thigh high's are back! This trend was seen last year and it looks like it's not going away. Styling a long pair of boots with a mini skirt and tights (or without if your're feeling brave) or dress will instantly give you the 60s look which is a key trend this season.
*All of the boots below are available from Public Desire.

HATS
A fedora in camel, plum and browns as opposed to the classic black, is a way to switch up your look and embrace this season's colour palette.
*The first hat is from Topshop, the rest can be found on ASOS.

I hope this has helped you to get ready for Autumn! What are your favourite accessories to rock in Autumn?
