sponsored video: asos and charlotte free

In my opinion, Charlotte Free is definitely one of the hottest models on the scene at the moment. She is recognised for her striking pink hair and has recently been on the cover of some of the world's trendiest magazines at the tender age of just 19. I love the grungey yet chic edginess to the video and think that she pulls all of the looks off effortlessly. Asos have definitely made a great choice in collaborating with her for the collection and video as I'm sure their audience will be in awe of how brilliantly it is all put together. Asos have also worked with Azealia Banks and Ellie Goulding to create alternative videos including party outfits and hot tips.



The video is interactive which means along the bottom you can scroll through items of clothing that have been featured and add them to your Asos basket straight from there, clever huh! To be in with the chance of winning some Asos prizes simply use the hashtag #BestNightEver when pinning from the video, simple as that.

What is your favourite piece from the video? Mine is definitely the turquoise sequinned dress, closely followed by the dusty pink coloured feather jacket that looks like it was made for Charlotte, and suits her look perfectly. I think that all of the pieces are definitely worth a good look at as options for outfits for the party season. Don't forget to also check out the other videos and competitions that Asos are running for the campaign as you'd be missing out on a lot of fashion related fun, click here.

faux fur collar and tartan scarf

NAVY VELVET FAUX FUX COLLAR COAT - KIMICHI BLUE - £135 | LEATHER LOOK LEGGINGS - MISSGUIDED - £11.99 | TARTAN CASHMERE SCARF - JOHNSTONS OF SCOTLAND


I've been lusting after this beautiful coat from Kimichi Blue at Urban Outfitters for quite a while now but since they were out of stock online I had to ring round London to find a store that had it in stock still. The coat was definitely worth the wait and despite it's eye watering price tag I'm completely in love with it, for obvious reasons! It fits perfectly and is just the right length, also the faux fur collar almost acts as a scarf to keep me snuggly and warm in the cold Winter weather. I paired it with a tartan cashmere scarf (all the way from Scotland) and some leather look leggings for a modern edge.


..and finally check out this grumpy pup that we met on our walk, there is something very lovable about the cheeky face of a Boxer.

primark christmas duvet set

PRIMARK STAG PRINT BRUSHED COTTON DOUBLE DUVET SET - £16

Christmas is coming which means it's time to invest in Christmas themed bedding, be it fairlisle print, covered in snowflakes or stags it's just as essential around this time of year as Christmas pyjamas. I decided on a lovely set from Primark and surprisingly even though it's cheap the quality is amazing. Since it's made from brushed cotton the material feels extra soft and keeps you that bit warmer than normal cotton sheets. Since the sheets are reversible and have a different print on each side you can swap over whenever you fancy a change, definitely a big winner in my book!
