December Ideas


It might be December but it still feels and looks like autumn in London. Everywhere you look you see beautiful colours of leaves and it's not too cold outside either. But wait until the evening comes and you won't mistake this season for anything else. Christmas is just around the corner and I can never get enough of the fairy lights, magic and sparkle that London has to offer. There is never a more magical time of the year and I can't wait to dive into all those pleasant pre-Christmas errands and worries. But that's a whole separate blog post, so let me talk you through this one.

I've been wearing quite a few Wildfox pieces recently and all of them, be it the softest leopard jumper, chicest robe or these boyfriend jeans are made to be loved. I like it when you try something new on and it immediately feels like it has been yours all along. That's how I feel about Wildfox. You can hardly find a cooler brand when it comes to casual and loungewear. Being an LA brand every piece has that effortlessly chic feeling to it and who wouldn't want to be an LA girl? 

I've been also trying to find an affordable evil eye ring for some time now and thanks to Chelsea Doll I finally own it. You should check their website before you plan your holiday outfits and buy Christmas gifts. Their prices and the huge selection of accessories are just amazing!

One last thing, don't forget to enter my TRAVEL HANDSET GIVEAWAY. Just leave your email address under the post, follow me on Instagram and Bloglovin and it can be yours. All links and details are here.

Enjoy your weekend x

Getting Ready


Every girl has her own getting ready routine and I've decided to show you mine. Not so much a step-by-step process but rather an introduction to some of my favourite beauty, hair and make-up products that are currently in my bathroom. It also gives me a chance to show off this gorgeous Wildfox robe that is just perfect for the morning mirror procedures.

So I hope you enjoy a little glimpse into my home and I would be happy to hear your thoughts on these products. Do you use some of them? Is there something major that I'm missing and should know about? I will also gladly answer any of your beauty questions. Let's discuss x

Pop


There's a new pop-up store alert in London. It's very exclusive, it opens today and will last for only four days. What's the store you wonder? It's Julien David. 

Yesterday I had a chance to celebrate the opening and have a sneak peek at what this pop-up has to offer. The collection is what I would call casual edgy. Every piece is fun, very different and is made from the most intricate materials. It's the way to go if you don't want to blend with the crowd and are looking for some statement pieces for the season. 

The absolute highlight of the evening? Meeting Julien.

Make sure you pop into the store from November 28 to December 1,  from 11am-8pm. It's located in the heart of Shoreditch, 64 Charlotte Road, EC2A 3PE.

Happy shopping! x

Workwear


Happy Monday guys! Hope you are ready to enjoy another week and have nice after-work activities planned. So far, it's mostly meetings and more meetings on my schedule, but I always enjoy those, so nothing to complain about.
Speaking of work, this outfit is something that I've put on for an important interview last week. I wanted to look professional and grown up with some chic element to it. I can always rely on my Lanvin heels when it comes to chic. It's been more than a year since I've got them in New York and every time I open the box butterflies still have a blast in my stomach. Do you have such a timeless piece that makes you happy every time you look at it? Please share your thoughts.

One more thing! It's 4 days left until Black Friday and 7 days until Cyber Monday which means SHOPPING! And I am very excited to be able to help all of you shop with some great discounts to all the major stores. Stay tuned with my blog to get all the PROMO CODES closer to the dates. I'll have lots of those!

Also please let me know if you would like me to make an edit of the best sale items for you. If you do, than leave a comment telling me about your favorite brands and stores and what kind of things you'll be hunting for.

Looking forward to hearing from you xx

Black and More


Sometimes all you need is some mid November sun, good set of stairs, black mirrored sunglasses and almost entirely black outfit to feel good about a rather ordinary week day. I have worn this ensemble for a full day of meetings and a whole lot of running around. Even though my initial idea included heels, I've been quickly reassured that the flats were the way to go. It just never seems realistic to spend the entire day of walking in heels without sacrificing my feet. 

Moving on to some housekeeping things. Make sure to check out IGottaGetOne.com for some major designer bargains and feel free to use my 10% discount by typing JULIA10 at the checkout! And don't forget to keep your eye on my shopping page here as it gets updated very often. You can follow me on Instagram (here) and Bloglovin (here) to stay updated throughout the day.

Have a great day and do let me know if there is anything in particular you would like me to post about xx
