The Best Boots

 Now it's time for my final shopping report, and this time it's all about boots. I have searched here, there and everywhere and I have to say there are so many boots to choose from out there at the moment. With so much to choose from it made it more difficult to narrow down to my picks for the best ones available, but I have done so. The one downside to doing these shopping reports is that you realise how many gorgeous boots there are out there just waiting to be bought and take up residence in my closet but, I would have to have Beyoncé's bank balance for all of these to be mine- sad face. So, getting down to business here is my pick of the best boots available this Autumn/Winter, there are 40 of them so get your wish-list ready. (Just in time for Christmas too..)
Happy Shopping!

Sweater Season

The temperatures outside are turning considerably cooler at the moment and with that the need to feel warm and cosy (but stylish at the same time) becomes greater. I like to call it sweater weather. Me myself, I love sweaters, I have quite the selection of chunky knits, fine knits, slouchy, fitted, cropped sweaters etc. so this time of year is my favourite time of year. A few weeks ago I posted Part 1 of a 3 part report on my pick of the best coats out there for this Autumn/Winter, this report- Part 2 is my pick of the best knitwear/sweaters out there for A/W and soon i'll be sharing Part 3 my pick of the best boots on offer for the season ahead. So let's get down to business, here is my pick of the best sweaters/knitwear in stores at the moment, ranging from affordable up to high-end designer price tags. Get your wish list ready!
Happy shopping.

Liquid Gold Gucci

What a truly stunning picture this is from Gucci's ad campaign for the Cruise 2014 collection photographed by Mert & Marcus. Andreea Diaconu embodies the glamour of Gucci so well I hope she snaps up the Spring/Summer 2014 campaign too. What a great location for a campaign too and a striking sunset never fails as a backdrop really.
Magnifique.
