20 Spring items under 100 £

If you are like me then after Christmas you start to dream of spring. So here I am sitting on the sofa in January dreaming of warmer and longer days but also about all those coffee breaks outside.

THE SAMBA OBSESSION CONTINUES

And what better time there is to plan your spring wardrobe. I am not a somebody that builds up a brand new closet each season however I like to get few new items to spruce things up. Adidas Samba is a trainer that I actually thought was hideous last year but it really starts to grow on me. I was not getting the whole Tiktok viral obsession but do you know what sometimes I wait and wait and eventually end up liking the item. I actually love it not only with cool looks like you can see in the first picture but also certain type of skirt. Leopard print is another big trend and yes there are super cute YSL heels but this is more about updating your wardrobe under 100 £.

WHAT TO SHOP? YOU DON’T HAVE TO GO BIG

So bring some colour in, get that faux leather trench or cute patent loafers. You will also wear over and over cute sweatshirt or knit. Check your wardrobe and make sure you have enough of capsule items like jacket or skirt that goes with everything and invest in accessories. Even a small item like sunglasses can really be a nice touch. You can play with colours and texture. I am definitely thinking of investing in croc leather pants or skirt.

And if you want to splurge more and maybe invest in the bag to go with these more affordable outfits you have my support.

5 Cool Influencers to follow in 2024

Do you also sometimes get lost in the sea of influencers on social media. I will not lie I do. I tried to actually over Christmas to clear who I follow but quickly realised there is a limit on this. I wish I could just start with clean slate and really follow only the people that give me joy or people I know.

Well, I have discovered some new people myself where I clicked follow as their content is giving me joy of inspiration and here are some cool girls to follow in 2024.

SHOP KEY ITEMS:

Alexia Charpin

Digital creator from France with beautiful hair and style. She does casual so well as well as glam in the evening which is pretty much what I love too.

Olga Loffler

If this German beauty does not blow up I will eat my head or there is something seriously wrong with Instagram algorithm. She is a mum like me but is incredibly creative and beautiful. Love her fun approach to content and she has fantastic wardrobe too.

Hottest bags to carry through to 2024

Hottest bags to carry through to 2024 that are fun and will make your outfits look great. Some are classic and some are less however knowing women each of us is going to find the ONE.

Unexpected shapes

These bags are fun. We are talking shapes from my 2 years old daughter’s puzzles including hearts, stars, triangles and more. I have been obsessed with the Alaia heart bag since it came out and now when I have it I want other colours. I know typical. I even mentioned it before Christmas in my trends to shop. However, there are so many fun shapes around like the Prada triangles or Chanel star bags.

These are timeless and classic and will suit so many styles. I am sure office ladies will love these bags as well as timeless chic chicks. I am talking the Row Margaux bag. I have to definitely mention the New York Tote from Demellier London and also Savette bags. Those are my new obsession. Chic should be their second name.

Burgundy & Cherry Red

This trend will continue rocking in 2024 and I feel purely because everything that came out in this colour was sold out and so many people did not get a chance to buy anything. Think YSL, Loewe, even the above mentioned Alaia heart. I actually had cute burgundy YSL bag which I sold and now regret a bit. Oh well at leas a reason for a new one in 2024.

Oversized

We will keep seeing large and oversized bag. The YSL tote is now available in a crochet version so even summer bags will be going this direction. I also love the Coperni Heart bag which is so fun and cool. I am sure this is practical for so many women who love to carry lot things including laptop, heavy diary and full makeup bag.

3 Trends to shop this Christmas

Christmas is round the corner there are so many gift guides and ideas and trends to think about. However, I love these three trends that I believe could make a wonderful gift. I know Black Friday just finished and we are still overwhelmed but if you did not use the offers to shop your gifts and you are still looking you may love these ideas.

The other day when I was passing the Ugg store it was full of shoppers and there is no doubt that uggs come up so high on google and pinterest searches. Luckily it is a trend that will keep the feet warm and I find it also a super practical present. Just imagine wearing Ugg Micro or Tasman with super comfortable Lululemon leggings and you are the ultimate trendy yet comfy queen.

Burgundy

Burgundy and cherry red have been the colour of season and I am loving this colour. I personally did not get myself neither shoes or bag as simply all stunning items were sold out but I have my eye on this scarf as I think it would be a lovely touch of colour and I am a huge fan of wearing just burgundy tights with dark or tonal looks. So some of these would make even fab stocking filler.

Patent

Not everybody is a fan of patent but I am loving this trend and recently got myself such a pretty pair of shoes for the party season. I am also so much into the patent bags at the moment especially the Alaia Heart. I love even the matt one but the patent one has little extra something for me. So name it all belts, shoes, bags I am loving the patent trend so let’s gift something pretty and shiny this Christmas.
