Robert Cavalli Wild Diva Sunglasses

 Christmas came early for this glasses wearing, sunnies loving lady! My Robert Cavalli 'Wild Diva' sunglasses from SmartBuyGlasses arrived yesterday! 
As someone with a wider face than others, large, cat eye frames suit my face best. So I was super excited to find an eccentric pair of sunnies that would not only look great on my face shape but suit my personal style perfectly. They will be perfect for the Christmas present we just booked for the end of January! Can't wait to share that one with you! Tomorrow is December, which means it's time to start shopping for the Holidays! Check out this stylish Holiday Giftguide of sunnies and eyeglasses for the stylish individuals in your life. 
Would you ever wear these bold sunglasses?!

Sequin Shirt

 
The holidays have arrived which means I can wear my sequin skirts, skirts, and trousers! Woo! I embarrassing(ly) left the flat yesterday wearing pleather and pink on pleather and pink. How does that happen?! Besides this sequin skirt the two items in this post are my only other source of pink in my wardrobe. Sometimes I surprise myself...
 
 Let's be honest, I'm not a model and I always feel ridiculous in front of the camera!

Tartan Duster Jacket

Tartan is an Autumn/ Winter staple. Especially in the UK! Although these are not the colors of my family's Scottish tartan (McArthur clan!!), I still love to wear this modern version form Chiara Fashion. Can we just take a moment and appreciate the genius behind these peek-a-boo eiffel tower tights?! Love!
 Oh hey there Fall.

How to Style Vintage Faux Fur Coat

This vintage faux fur coat, circa 1950's/1960's (my guess) was the best charity shop find, ever. I have been looking for 2-3 years for the perfect cream/ neutral faux fur coat. So I was thrilled to find this one. The reason I took 2-3 years to find a coat is because the fit of faux fur needs to be spot on with your body type, otherwise you run the risk of looking like a football player with massive shoulders ;) Among other things. My favorite part of the coat is the oversized collar, it allows me to create different necklines as pictured below, totally changing the look.

Styling faux fur is just as important as styling the plain white tee. It needs to fit well, not be too baggy that you look bigger, but tailored in all the right places. Although this will look fab with a dress, it's best to play down the drama of a faux fur maxi with skinny trousers and classic heels. 
1. Keeping the faux fur scrunched up around your neck helps take some bulk off the body.
2. Draping the collar of your coat to rest a few inches away from your neck (the opposite of the first tip)   creates a great frame for your face and neck. I always let it slide down my back a bit, about 4-5 inches form the nape of my neck, it keep the weight of the coat away form my shoulders.
3. Wardrobe styling faux fur is pretty fun, for every day wear, just throw it on over some skinny jeans or trousers with your favorite tee and black heels. 
 Happy Styling!! Let me know if you have any questions!!

The Wool Camel Coat

This wool camel coat courtesy of H&M has been keeping me warm since being back in England. At temps that are just above freezing, I don't mind the trend and appreciate the style. These pics were snapped at the entrance of our beautiful street, what was once a gated community with mansions in a resort town for the rich is now our home. More street style posts to come from England!
