Sanderson London
Chloe & I over fashion week I stayed at Sanderson London. I absolutely love the Morgans hotel group as they have such a chic and minimal aesthetic running through out all of their hotels. Last season I stayed at St Martins Lane and fell in love with it but thought I would try one of their other hotels situated on Berner's Street. It's such a perfect location for fashion week, about a 10 minute walk to Brewer Street car park and about 2 minutes to oxford circus! Once I arrived at the hotel, I actually headed off to the Mad Hatters afternoon tea (which I already experienced before) with Missguided and caught up with a few other bloggers. Of course, I ate ALOT and couldn't wait to check into my room and have a little nap from the food baby I just created.
I opted for the deluxe room and I couldn't be more happier. I love my space and this room literally did not let me down. Since Chloe was staying with me as well I thought it would be perfect! We actually asked for a rail for our LFW pieces and we still had so much room. I love the lay out of the room too and how open the bathroom is. You can actually open the curtains to create a see-through room but we kept it closed as the shower room would of been exposed too! Oh and did I mention that there is literally such good lighting for selfies?!
Another reason I love staying at the Morgans hotel group chain of hotels is their service. The Sanderson did not not let me know either. I was treated as an adult - something that I don't experience much in places like these. It was just so refreshing to be greeted with a smile and such a happy ora. The staff are always so happy to help even when we did keep calling house keeping for more hangers! I really can't recommend this hotel enough. For anyone looking for such a genuine lovely experience - I highly recommend Sanderson London. If you have any further questions about this place let me know below and I'll try my best to accommodate!
I'm sure I'll be back real soon! Thank you Sanderson for looking after myself and Chloe!

One of my favourite outfits I wore for Berlin Fashion week! Was about -11 so I had to wrap up super warm! I think I was wearing about three layers and then added the scarf! I paired everything together with this classic Louis Vuitton clutch. Well, it's actually a toiletry pouch that I use as a clutch - such a great size and a classic piece! Also wore my Stan Smiths with EVERYTHING whilst in Berlin! We did walked quite a bit so it was my go-to choice of footwear.
Berlin Fashion Week
So about a week ago I was invited by the Blogger Apartment to attend Berlin Fashion Week. I've only attended LFW in the pass so thought it would be a great opportunity to travel and experience other fashion weeks. It was definitely smaller than LFW and a bit more intimate to my surprise. I ended up with three full days in Berlin and stayed in an apartment with other bloggers. It was such a great way to socialised and get to know the girls a little better. It's such a different social environment for me and I was feeling a bit nervous but it was really fun that I just forgot about it all. One thing for sure, it was super cold and I can't believe at some of the girls going out in skirts and no tights?! We ended up attending Zadak, Lena Hoschek, Rebecca Ruetz, Kilian Kerner, Stein Rohner, Philomela Zanetti and Zukker. Such beautiful collections and I was so delighted to be able to attend the shows with all the other girls and guys! I also ran into my girl Nyane and of course had to snap up a selfie with her! Just wanted to say a major thanks to the girls Samah and Lori for inviting me to experience Berlin Fashion week - I really couldn't thank you girls enough. Also thank you to the sponsors that provided the apartment with food and goodies! Especially Even & Odd who supplied us with some clothing to wear to the shows!

I'm always up for a coffee break where ever I am. I decided to stop off at Kaffine to refuel and thought I would snap some photos of my outfit for you guys! Been obsessed with this top ever since I saw it on Sonya on her insta! It's such a fun and exotic print which is perfect for vacation but also to brighten up this London gloomy weather! Paired it with my favourite denim culottes that I DIY'd a couple of months ago and this grey coat which was the perfect cover up! To mix it up a bit, I ended up wearing my baby pink Jil Sander sneakers! I love how the pink and the burgundy complimented each other.

When you go from one meeting to another and have dinner plans, this is what you should throw on! I always debate what the heck to wear when I have a full packed day ahead of me. I don't want to be too stuffy otherwise I'll arrive as a sweaty mess. I don't want to be too casual just in case the place I end up at is pretty fancy so I try to balance both as well as I can!
Start off with a little black dress, depending on your style and what you have planned for the day... I opted for this one, it's super comfortable, chic and minimal. Next pair it with a well tailored coat. Preferably a mute colour but feel free to throw in a colourful or a statement jacket of your choice. Now, finish with a pair of kick pass boots. These ones are amazing and from Public Desire! They are really comfy and made me feel bad ass! I love how Dior like they are and how my make my legs look. I love this combo when I can't think of anything else to wear and it really makes such an 'effortless chic' vibe when worn!

One of my favourite pieces lately are off the shoulder tops. Especially if they have big flared sleeves like this one! This beautiful piece is by Finders Keepers and I love how minimal, chic and clean cut it is! You can dress it down like I have here or dress it up if you pair it with a leather mini skirt and heels! Of course I had to pair it with my new favourite faux fur jacket! It really makes the outfit and kept me cosy!
Faux the love of fur
Zara Faux fur coat
Been loving this faux fur coat I picked up in the Zara sale! Been wearing it a lot ever since. It's such a cosy piece and super chic which makes it go with everything. I just paired it with this grey on white print skirt from Keepsake! You gotta layer up in London! To finish it off I just paired it with my Addias Superstars which you guys know I love - these ones are my new pair! The red stripe in the middle really switches it up and makes it a bit more unique.

You guys know I love a good watch. Been looking for a watch that was super minimal, modern and chic and came across CLUSE! I fell in love when I saw this matte black stainless steel strap one! It's a perfect size for my tiny wrist and is super slick! It goes great with everything and is really reasonably priced! If you are looking to kick start your watch collection then I would recommend this brand as a start up as they have many choices and are really affordable. I also have the silver version too!

Who wouldn't want their own customised pair of Ray Bans?! When I got asked to create my own pair I jumped at the chance! Ray Ban is such a timeless eye wear brand that everyone has grown up to love. To be able to put your own spin on a classic really is a treat that everyone can do! You can click here to create your own REMIX pair of Ray Bans - such a perfect christmas gift! The great thing is that you can choose from 14 different styles and then customise everything from the lens, the case right down to the material!

Such a great little gift for someone who's got a holiday coming up or loves to travel!
