The Definition of....
Style is one of the hardest things to describe in the world I think.
Is it how you wear it, who is wearing it, why they wear it?
There is so many questions and absolutely too many answers to find the truth in between the opinion.
I could listen to people talk all day about it. The arguments for and against, the confusion and passion of everyone trying to describe something that only really exists in the eyes of who is looking.
It's completely and utterly subjective and that to me is what makes it so interesting.
Everyone wants to 'have' style or 'get' style but maybe the irony is that we have it all along and by concentrating on what it might be or look like or what our BFF or favourite blogger thinks it is, we kinda risk losing 'our' style a little along the way.
Which is why when I see something that I just think wow, that is me in inanimate object form i get excited, it's like another little piece of my style puzzle has been found, it's ever changing and constantly evolving but the core always stays the same for me and that for me is simpleness.
And that is exactly what I think these rings are. The most basic and beautiful form of jewellery, to me these are forever pieces that can fit around my look.
I am in LOVE with them.
You can buy them from Etsy
Single ring- £8.95

Nelly
Nelly.com is a Swedish online store that is now in the UK.
To say that it's pretty awesome would be a major understatement
I kinda went all in and decided that I must have there two pairs of shoes in my life
I have been looking for the perfect nude shoes for forever
but perfect is pretty hard to come by when you are as fussy as me with shoes
Then these appeared before my eyes.
And as i tried to get them in my virtual basket as quickly as possible I realised they didn't have my size and I did that thing, you know when you really want something, you go 'it's totally fine that the shoes are two sizes to small, three toes are meant to be hanging out the side, that's like totally cool these days'.
But I had to reign myself in and think of the mighty blisters I would get and well the fact that i wouldn't get my feet in them at all and remove them from my basket.
So if you like them I would suggest clicking over quick to see if they have your size,
Let me know if you buy them and if they are as beautiful in real life (no pun intended!)

Playing to win
So it’s my birthday coming up at the start of May and I’m trying to think of ideas on what to do for it.
Somewhere that I have always wanted to go and think would be perfect for some B’day celebrations is the Casino.
Ever since watching friends with those episodes and ‘That’ wedding that went on when they went to Vegas, I have always wanted to go to one and play casino games.
I always loved the idea too that Rory had in Gilmore Girls (Best.Show.Ever) when she wanted to celebrate her 21st by going to Atlantic City and playing blackjack and putting a chip on 21 at midnight, so fun!
So, what fun/different/cool ways have you celebrated you birthdays in the past and have you got any tips for me?

Ernest Jones Wishlist
Some exciting news I wanted to share with you.
Ernest Jones have got a really awesome new competition running just now where you could win your dream jewellery from them.
Basically what you have to do is compile a wishlist of your favourite products from their website using their awesome new Facebook app, submit it, then your good to go!
And even if you end up not winning who doesn't love browsing through beautiful jewellery and creating a dream shopping list of what you would buy if you could.
So with that in mind I have went ahead and made my own wishlist.
All the jewellery here is from the new S/S 12 Ernest Jones collection.
As you know I am a lover of all things gold.
It's my favourite type of jewellery to wear and i love how it can be really simple and delicate or really tough and a statement that can transform your whole look.
Oh and I just had to include 'the' Michel Kors watch, I know it's not the classic gold one but how fun and pretty is the lilac version, I had never seen it before till i saw it on EJ's website, So lovely!
I made a little mood board to show you how I would wear my wishlist pieces too, there is nothing i love more than a handful of rings and arms and necks stacked full of bangles and necklaces.
Oh and how beyond incredible is the chunky chain bracelet I have been looking for one of them for EVER, so perfect I couldn't believe it when i seen it although i really will have to win this wishlist comp if I'm going to be able to afford it haha!
So, will you be entering the comp?
If you do i will keep my fingers and toes crossed for you winning!

Made in Chelsea star the new face of Lipsy’s VIP range
Millie Mackintosh, star of reality show, Made in Chelsea, has been named as the new face of Lipsy’s VIP range. The Lipsy London range is the fashion house’s more exotic and sophisticated collection, with more embellishment and intricate detail than normal Lipsy dresses. When asked about being the new face of the VIP range, Mackintosh said: “I’m so excited to be modelling Lipsy’s new season VIP collection as the range is absolutely gorgeous!”
She went on to add: “the brand always makes such great eveningwear and I love the exclusivity of the VIP collection – all of the dresses would be perfect for any red carpet event!” The collection itself includes 17 dresses, all created from luxurious fabrics in a range of colours, with plenty of on-trend detailing. This season will see the re-emergence of pastels, and Lipsy’s VIP range has a number of fabulous pastel-coloured dresses for shoppers to choose from.
Mackintosh’s selection as the face of the VIP range has raised a few eyebrows, but it seems that the range and model have been largely well received. Following in the footsteps of former Lipsy ambassadors – young, wealthy socialites including Paris Hilton, Jessica Lowndes and Alexis Jordan – it seems that Mackintosh has no shortage of style. The capsule collection consists of evening wear and sophisticated party dresses to ensure younger fashion lovers have plenty of gorgeously glamorous options to choose from.
The range may not be the cheapest available, but shoppers will certainly be able to tell how their extra money was spent. The range is priced from £90 - £140, and is available from online retailers and high street stockists. With the summer fast approaching, these could be some of the hottest dresses of the season. There are a number of designs on offer, including maxi dresses with thigh high splits, and shorter, ruffled dresses in gorgeous pastels. With plenty of textures and colours to choose from, the range is ideal for young, successful Britons who want to look and feel their best this summer.
The new Lipsy VIP range comes on the back of a successful retail season for the brand in 2011, with sales up by 23% at the end of January 2012, compared to the previous year.

Sunday Show and Tell
This song is hazy days and light nights.
It's sunshine beating down.
It's freckles.
Barefeet.
And red sunsets.
It's Summer....
