Ripped Boyfriend Jeans by Marques Almeida X Topshop, Was £70 Now £35
This collaboration has been seen on the likes of FKA Twigs, the Jenners and world renowned blogger Susie Bubble. Pair these super cool jeans with a white vest top and a boxy cropped jacket, add some mules and you are good to go!

Leather Biker Jacket, Was £149 Now £75 
If I could put in a nutshell the tips for sale shopping it would be shoes, bags and anything leather. This leather jacket is great quality and part of the Premium collection at H&M. Instead of shedding the usual £300 for a leather jacket grab yourself a sweet bargain with this one to ease you into leather heaven.

Moschino Here It Is Slogan T-shirt, Was £140 Now £85
For the sassier soul in all of us, rock this t-shirt with pride!

Bicester Village Outlet Shopping, Oxfordshire, OX26 6WD
If you really want to grab a designer bargain I suggest a trip to Bicester Village where you will find brands such as Barbour, Chloé, Celine, Burberry, Saint Laurent and many more for at least half the price! There are also great places to eat like my favourite thai restaurant, Busaba Eathai, a Jamie Oliver's restaurant, plus the usuals like Pret and Starbucks. It's a lovely day of shopping outside of London at any time of the year.

Still stuck for New Years outfit ideas? This skirt will save you as well as remaining a show stopper garment in your wardrobe for 2015. Wear with an off the shoulder black crop top and some pointed courts or your favourite trainers for a Lily Allen sort of twist.

Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Birkin Brown, Was £23 Now £20.70
These lipsticks have taken the make up world by storm for their great colour, staying power and not forgetting the incredible Charlotte Tilbury packaging. Brown lipsticks are my favourite new trend at the moment as it means I finally get a nude for my skin tone! What's more, team this with an all neutral outfit and simple make up, you will really look like you woke up flawless.

edit | BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDERS


 Although I do love chocolate I thought in line with the Spice Girls that one could really 'spice up their life' with these beauty advent calendars. This year you can count down for Christmas looking even more stunning by the day (plus whats stopping you from grabbing a choc calendar as well, they're only a fiver after all!) I think it's a great opportunity to try out all the best selling products that are loved by thousands, beauty bloggers or not!  
But you have to be quick as they are selling out really fast (Benefit, Selfridges and the Tesco advent calendar have already gone!) 
My favourite has to be the YOU Beauty calendar with luxury items from beauty industry legends including Laura Mercier, Liz Earle, Sisley, Molton Brown - to name a few! 

What beauty product have you always wanted to try? 
- Off the top of my head (although the list is endless!) it's the Laura Mercier primer and the Benefit 'Theyr'e Real' mascara
