I heart H&M

I've often found that as soon as the new fashion season turns and brand new styles pop up everywhere, I'm unleashed and go out seeking for the perfect Spring look even though it's mid February and snow still hasn't melted. H&M has been my one-stop-shop for a while because amongst their casual tops and essentials, you can find some amazing catwalk copycats and for a mere steal.

Gently Does It

Jacket: H&M £29.99

Stripy Top: H&M £9.99

Blue and Pink Clutch: H&M £12.99

Light Blue Trousers: H&M £7.99

Ballet Pumps: H&M £7.99

Colour Pop

Green Scarf: H&M £6.99

Orange Jacket: ASOS £15

Green Top: H&M £9.99

Green Satchel: H&M £12.99

Skinny Jeans: Next £29.99

Ballet Pumps: H&M £7.99

The new range of H&M ballet pumps come in five gorgeous colours and at only £7.99 you can afford to buy the entire set. I was desperate for the emerald green ones but unfortunately they had no size 4 left.

H&M is that perfect place where you can keep up to date with the latest trends without breaking the bank. Perfectly on trend and affordable, it's the one store that will never lose style.

New Fashion Crush: StylistPick.com

Sometimes it's difficult to re-invent your style or to keep things fresh when all you do is go to the same stores, persuse through the same styles, and shop in the same sales. Just like a dwindling and passionateless relationship, getting out of a style rut is difficult, but essential.

The only problem is that cutting back on your fail-safe shopping is hard to do, especially when there's nothing to move on to.

Which is why new shopping websites are the first place your should try. Let's face it, the High Street isn't miraculously going to be filled with brand new chains that hold shiny, beautiful new clothes that break your routine of going into the same shops. But the online world does this. Every single day.

And StylistPick is my recommendation. Loaded with a wonderful selection of different accessories, you'll never be stuck in a style rut again. Just log on, take the fashion quiz, and be presented with your very own showroom. It even contains some pretty impressive stylists too.

Ophelia bag - StylistPick

Once I got that email telling me my very own showroom was finished, I was straight on there. And my goodness were they right in what they chose!

Seconds later I find I'm at the checkout, incredibly excited because I'm buying this patent red Ophelia bag.

When it arrives, StylistPick have even added a gorgeous charm bracelet as a thank you.

Unlike other online shopping arrivals, when my Ophelia bag arrived, I was not left disappointed. What you see on the website is what you get on your doorstep.

Louise Roe Collection - Miami - StylistPick

A mere week after my first purchase, I find myself back on the website. This time it's to see the new Louise Roe collection. I instantly fall in love with Miami; a jewellery set of 2 statement rings and a cuff.

And packaged like a perfect parcel. Just the thing you want to see when you get back from work.

Leather leggings: Topshop

Hey Moshi Moshi!

If you're between the ages of 4 to 8, you'd know exactly what the title of this post is referring to. If you don't fit into this age group, don't have a child, don't know any young children or work in a toy company, then you're probably a bit lost. But not to worry, dear friends. Because unless you fit into any of the groups listed above, there's no need for you to know. All you need to do is get this watch.

Moshi Monsters watch RRP £9.99

There's nothing like a good ol' slap watch to remind you of the playground, and the great thing is, that due to the popularity of this brand, no matter what age, you're always in fashion.

And now on to more adult things...

River Island - £35

...like this River Island bag. With a surge of colour, this statement handbag perks up any outfit. I've worn it with a monochrome shirt, dark jeans, and flat shoes.
