Sprinkle Your Sparkle, Always

We have been having some wonderful sun, which has been rumoured to be sticking around for a few weeks, so I've been making the most of it while it's here. Things like this I find we always take for granted, in winter it's too cold and in summer it's too hot. In my opinion we need to look past how WE feel all the time and see the beauty all around us. Life doesn't stop being enjoyable because of the weather, that is just how you look at life.

I'm trying a new thing at the moment that when I start to feel down or worried about things I tell myself to be aware of what's happening right now. What's happening outside, what things look like, what I'm doing etc. Things to take my mind off the negatives and onto the beauty in the present. So far it's working like a dream so if you think this can help you I highly suggest you try it and let me know how you get on.

As part of a spring lookbook I shot in this absolutely beautiful sequin number in the spring sunshine. I love this dress so much and in the sunshine it becomes even more amazing reflecting light everywhere. Such a beautiful design and I cannot wait to wear this more and more this summer. Sometimes it's perfect to throw on a stunning piece of clothing and feel fabulous, this is exactly what this sparkling beauty does.


Thankyou to Holly Kenyon for being my gorgeous photographer.

Bonfire Night

Hope you all had an amazing bonfire night last night. As promised I took some photos of the fireworks display I went to, safe to say it didn't disppoint. It's sad thinking this is my last bonfire night in Falmouth but it was spent with some amazing people. Unfortunately there was no mulled wine so I might have to make my own soon.

Never take moments for granted with friends, family or anyone that really means something to you. Life keeps going whether you want it to or not and you can't relive a moment no matter how much you wish you could. So hold onto every special moment you can and really make the most out of life. I can feel that November is going to be a great month with lots of new and exciting things happening. So get out there make yours the same. Have fun and don't take life too seriously. You only get one chance, make it count.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Here is my final halloween post from the countdown. This is the halloween shoot I did as a dark glam witch. Black is just the best colour for an occasion but its perfect for halloween given it's all about darkness and horror so I went with dark glitz and glam for the look on this shoot for Griffin Photography's halloween cover.

I absolutely loved this look and the make up was just incredible. There is no such thing as too much glitter and sparkle, so this theme ran right through the shoot. A statement sequin dress from TopShop showed off the amazing jewellery from GlitzySecrets. All made even more epic by the gold and black glitter eye make up. It does help the effect that my eyes were being an especially weird colour in this shoot that somehow matched my hair making it even more creepy. Not all halloween costumes have to be blood, gore and death, so I felt this shoot added a new slant on the holiday, a chance to be whatever you want.

Still getting used to having red hair after so many years being blonde but this shoot is definitely one of my favourites to date, it is also the perfect time to be really pale and proud. Any excuse to dress up and get covered in glitter. I hope you all have an amazing Halloween, whether you're off to a party, going out or going trick or treating. Stay safe and don't scare too many people!

Adding Some Sparkle To London

I was hoping to go back to London soon but I didn't realise I'd be back only 7 days after leaving. However it was a lovely chance to get back into one of my favourite cities and get some more little jobs done. This was an extra special trip as I was meeting with an extraordinary diamond company which will be revealed very soon. As it was a meeting with such a beautiful brand I thought reflecting a little sparkle in my outfit was the perfect time to wear one of my favourite tops. The detail of it is simply wonderful and I am a magpie when it comes to sparkle. 

A morning spent in Greenwich before heading to Regent St. was the perfect time to show off my lovely Jack Wills Woollen Blazer. Folding up the sleeves adds a pink and blue pop of colour to my outfit. Dress it up and dress it down it never disappoints, however the weather was a lot more impressive than I had expected so most of the day it was spent over my arm around London instead of being worn.  

SO excited to show you what I go up to in London to keep your eyes peeled for a post on the wonderful diamonds I played with and a very exciting new partnership.
