Astrid & Miyu

I came across Astrid & Miyu on Twitter after it recommended I follow them, I did but had never been on their website to browse their stuff. Then last week Sara from Saraluxe.com had an outfiit post featuring this skull ring and as soon as I saw it, I needed it.

Astrid & Miyu is a company set up buy two friends who met while in business school in London.

'Through astrid & miyu, we want to help women express their personal styles and update existing wardrobe with high quality yet affordable costume jewellery. we design or hand-pick, and curate every single piece of jewellery for you.

think of us as your best friend with a sense of style who you can trust.'

How cute is all the packaging. I will be keeping my ring in the bag and box on my desk just for something pretty to look at while im not wearing it. I love it when you buy something and the packaging is lovely like this, makes you feel like you are buying something special.

 I really like the chunkiness of the ring and glad a chose the 3 skull tier (but I may have to get the single band too) and I think ill be wearing it all the time. The ring is £29 + P&P but when you sign up to an account with them you receive £10 off your first purchase. After hinting to my boyfriend about the ring I was so happy when he brought it for me. There are now so many pieces I have on my wishlist, particularly some bracelets I might have to treat myself to after payday.

Like Sara said 'If you like it put a skull ring on it'

Valentines Shopping Haul

I was trying to be good and not spend too much money while in Liverpool for Valentines Day and think I was quite good. As my closest Topshop is closed for refurbishment at the moment I needed my Topshop fix so I purchased...

To accessorise and experiement with my Statement Ear I thought I would try out these Spike earrings. I think I will only wear one at a time in my left ear which has the most piercings in as I think having them in both ears may look a bit much. 

I really like this burnt red kinda colour called War Paint. I will do a NOTD post when I try it on.

I couldn't resist adding these two to my ring collection. I think they will look great with the majority of my clothes and I like the look of them worn together.

I am really glad 90's Grunge has come back this season, my day to day wardrobe is full of black tops, jeans, boots, chunky knits, leather jackets and anything with a bit of an edgy design. At the moment I am having a little bit of an obsession with crosses so I needed this T-shirt. 

(Cross Tee By Realitee £22)

Primark is my kryptonite. I cannot resist bulk buying when I visit large ones like in Liverpool or Manchester. I try not to buy clothing from there and invest in more well made clothes that I am able to sell on Asos Marketplace when I need to make room in my wardrobe, but their accessories and homewere I just cannot resist and some of my comfiest shoes are from Primark. 

This bedding was £9, how amazing is that? I have washed it with loads of conditioner to soften it up before putting it on my bed and now it smells lovely as well as looking lovely. 

I love knick knacky storage and brought this before even planning on what I was going to put in it. Ive decided to put all of my Nail Polishes all colour coordinated inside as they are currently all just slung in my bedside table and around my bedroom, am I really a nerd to be excited about organising my Nail Varnishes?!

Primark tights are brilliant. I kinda resent having to spend a lot of money on tights as I am really clumsy and they always end with holes in eventually and at £2 you can buy every Denier and pattern and it wont break the bank. I brought their highest Denier and these caged patterned tights to add to the draw.

and another impulse purchase were these Pretty Pink Rose Scented butterfly tea candles that smell gorgeous.

Finally.... I brought this Tartan Print dress from Pop Boutique for £18. I think it is a tad short for me to wear as a dress, I think ill pair with with leggings or jeans for now and denim shorts in the summer. I was really glad to see Tartan on a few LFW A/W 2012 catwalks as now I know I will be wearing it for a few seasons to come.

What do you think of my new buys?? Any styling tips??

Check out this new hot jewellery line ChloBo.

Originating from Chester by the young Chloe Moss, Chlobo is a cute jewellery line designed to be collected and worn together. The charms that appear in the collection show how ChloBo is 'Inspired by 'The Beauty and Energy of Bali culture'

Chlobo's bracelets have four ranges.

The Iconics Collection - A collection of different sized Silver beads and Noodles with cute charms.

I recently brought this Cute Mini Peace Charm Noodle bracelet.

The Oystins Collection - Made up of Pearls and Silver beads and charms.

The JuJu Collection - This tribal collection is created with Horn and Rossdale beads and silver charms and is becoming widely popular as festival jewellery.

The Summer Love Collection - Made with brought coloured charms and beads, this collection has recently been very popular among celebrities, most recent being singer Ellie Goulding and The Saturdays.

I came across the brand when one of my best friends brought me one as a 21st birthday gift and am now developing an obsession. I now have four bracelets from the iconics collection and am always looking for excuses to treat myself (or my boyfriends to treat me) to a new one

Keep an eye out in the magazines for the celebrities wearing any ChloBo, it is definately set to be a huge new jewellery collection craze.

What do you think of the jewellery?Which collection would you be most likely to purchase??
