Today has been a good day. It has involved shopping, a spot of baking and lots of sparkles courtesy of this gorgeous mini-sequin top for French Connection's new Autumn Winter collection. I was lucky enough to be asked to choose an item from their latest launch and I immediately honed in on this top, completely adorned with golden sequins. I love the luxe feeling to it and the fact you can wear it casually with jeans or leggings, but then could easily dress it up with a skirt and heels. And who doesn't love a bit of sparkle to brighten up a dreary autumnal day? The tote from Marc B is another new addition and has prompted me to change over my bag after months of religiously using my LV Speedy. It is so room and has a nice splash of animal print inside as well as two quilted exterior pockets, perfect for easy-to-reach storage. And as for the boots, these have been my favourite purchase of the week from the far-too-convenient Primark near my work. They have so many boots and studs on show at the moment, I will definitely be popping back to stock up on some much needed winter footwear.

I hope you have all had a fantastic weekend. I have lots of posts lined up for this week including my latest culinary accomplishment, a coffee mocha cake, so keep you eyes peeled for that. :)

Oh my goodness you are so pretty Milly! I love it when people with really blonde hair wear dark lipstick-think it has something to do with the contrast :)
