Ghotic Collection

First of all apologies for the lack of the promised video over the weekend.  I have edited it, but I can't find a suitable music to accompany it, so please bare with!  Secondly, who was to know that my boyfriend would be a total trend predictor?!  He bought me this faux leather jacket from H&M for Christmas (this was an 'off list' gift) in 2012; I have never worn it, in fact, I kind of disliked it (not totally unusual for his 'off list' gifts, bless him).  But like many trends, white leather is now having it's turn and I absolutely love this jacket!  I am glad I didn't eBay it after all!  What's more is that in this mild winter we're having, it's totally wearable, maybe throw on a scarf, hat, gloves etc if it gets super nippy :)  So it's a hooray for my boyfriend and hooray for white leather (or faux in this case).

Over the years I've collected so many scarves, and yet not one of them compares to the scarf of this season, the check Zara scarf!  I've seen them all over the streets of London and I'm not ashamed to join everyone in donning this warmth defender!  No pressure on Zara to create something equally as awesome for AW14!

It's time to inject some of those Spring/Summer trends into my current wardrobe so here we go.  I got this baby blue check jacket from River Island the other day and also this matching blue chunky knitted beanie.  Checks are very much an AW13 trend but moving forward to SS14, checks are staying but we're being introduced to pastels once more and gingham.  So in a nutshell I've combined the two seasons, which is perfect for doing in this random stage where the shops are filled with Spring/Summer clothes, but we're all still freezing our bollocks off!

The start of another week, this year is already going too fast for my liking!  I would just like to say a quick thank you to all those who follow me on Instagram, I've just reached 4K followers which is a nice milestone for me.  Hello to the new followers/readers I've gained this week on the blog too.  Last week was a really successful week for me stats-wise so thanks to everyone for your support, comments, RT's and just general love!

Happy Thursday everyone!  Mmmmm, is there such a thing as a happy Thursday? A thought for the day.  So yesterday I went off to Rochester to do a day of shoots with Annie and this was the first of the day.  I think it's safe to say that the people of Rochester aren't as used to Bloggers as the good old folk of London!  We had some rather odd stares and a lot of confused faces, mainly from the elderly, so we'll let them off as I wasn't prepared to stand in the cold explaining the wonders of the internet!

I'm off on a mini Blogger road trip!  Today I'm headed to the pretty land of Rochester in Kent to abuse all of it's historicness for some blog shoots, armed with a car full of clothes and possibly some Pringles (yay!).  I'm going to be introducing some Spring trends into my posts over the next week.  The sales are pretty much fizzling out in most stores and new season is taking prime position so I couldn't help but purchase a few pastel numbers!
