Coconut Water Wave

Seeing dozens of celebrities slurping natural coconut water in the sun and reading about the thirst-quencher's health and detox benefits, I have to say I was really curious to finally try it.
Buying a carton at my local Holland&Barrett I have to say I was quite excited to finally taste the panacea.

To my disappointment, however I have discovered that it has a taste that one needs to acquire first.

I guess I am still on the hunt for the all singing all dancing healthy drink or food that tastes good, too, but for now I am sticking with my good old green tea.

Oversized Envelope Clutch

A must have for spring are the new oversized envelope clutches as seen in various high street stores.
Mostly seen in black in winter, the fresh and colourful versions are out and ready to complement your spring wardrobe now.
Wear the extra large ones in the day and slightly smaller ones at night.

The Reverse French Nail Polish

Seeing a ton and a half variations of the traditional French manicure, I have now seen and fallen in love with the "Reverse French".
It means painting your mails in two colours but instead of having the accent on the tip, you have it at the top.

I would recommend to get it done by the professionals for a perfect line but with a little practice I am sure you'll get the look after a few attempts yourself.
My first attempt below.

Coats With Leather Sleeves

One of the big winter trends this year were pieces with leather detail and in particular coats and jackets with leather sleeves. The coats and jackets, because of their tailored cut, are so timeless that I will be grabbing a bargain this sale for next autumn/winter and below are a few amazing pieces I have seen on Asos, Oasis, Zara  and Topshop.

In Love With Michael Kors Watches

Diamonds are a girls best friend. Yes, but an eye catching watch can be a great mate, too. The best thing about wearing a fantastic wrist watch is that it appears so subtle because of it's practicality, but can still upgrade your whole outfit and is the perfect arm candy.

Buying a Michael Kors watch recently, I have found it worth every penny, as it goes with any day and night look and makes you feel a million dollar. With price tags starting at around £200 it is an absolute must have!

Collar Tipped Shirts

Shirts and blouses are not only great for the office but are also a major fashion staple for an everyday and night outfit. Stocked up with uni colour, colour block, floral and animal print shirts and blouses this season, I am now sold on the collar tips, which have been around for a while now.

Although not a fan of the cowboy look, these shirts convince as they are anything but an outfit for a dusty ranch. Check out the shirts below from Asos, Zara and Urban Outfitters getting you ready for the city prairie.
