Midi rings - Accessory CRAZE from My Flash Trash


What I love about midi rings is the fact that they are so layerable and simple , sometimes stacking a lot of rings on your hand can look a little too much but  these tiny midi rings can be layered and still look great.

 I adore this trend because I feel like it makes every ones hands look more feminine and its nice too see something emerging as a new craze that's indie and just a bit different.

The trend is really taking off in  Brazil , google AnĂ©is de Falange to see some really beautiful midi rings.

Remember the days of silly bands ? These rings are becoming a must have craze just like that so get some soon to update your accessory wardrobe.

My favourites are from MYFLASHTRASH.COM designers Silver Service and Bark who  have recently launched new collections both showcasing Midi and Stacking rings.

 So have a look at some of their collection above and below , all available from  MYFLASHTRASH.COM .

Wafting - The best perfumes to buy this season

I love walking down the street and getting a waft of perfume from a passer by . However some people wear overpowering fragrances that seem to give off headaches rather than floral aroma .

A Nice subtle smell that wafts Its the only way. If the smell is overly sweet or tangy then you end up smelling how Nicki Minaj looks ----- fake .
 
Waft is a lovely word , say it out loud right where you are . Go on . Just do it , Waft .
 

1
Anyway to waft is to pass easily or gently through or as if through the air. This is what perfume should do , however do you find that it wafts for 10 minutes and then goes away and and never wafts again .
 
I am going to blog about my favourite perfumes and the waftyness of them just because I love to waft .
 
1.Vivienne Westwood 'Let It Rock ' this is one of my favourites at the moment it has mandarin and freesia with hints of jasmine and patchouli, while the base introduces notes of amber. It is a quite a wafty perfume but not the waftyest .
You can get a 50ml bottle for around £40.
 

COCO MADEMOISELLE
2
 

 

 

2. Coco Mademoiselle is an Oriental-fresh, floral jasmine-rose accord, as light as a petal very wafty and it stays on for ages . It is one of my all time faves because its a classic and I generally use it in the summer because it is so floral and bright. It is lovely but it doesn't waft as much.
You can get 50 ml for £64.50
 
 

Lola
3
 

3. Lola by Marc Jacobs is a  relaxed , cool and confident scent. I think that it suits evening occasions . It has vanilla  and heart notes of rose , which I really love. in It has maximum waftyness !
You can get 50ml for £46.50
 
 

Florabotanica
4
 

4. This is my ultimate favourite perfume called Balenciaga Florabotanica it is composed of accords such as mint, carnation, hybrid rose, caladium leaves, amber and vetiver. It is like walking into a personal scent bubble it smells amazingly fresh and fruity. it is a medium wafter.
 It costs £52.50 for 50ml
 
 
L'Eau d'Issey
5
 
5. Issey Miyake imagines the scent of water' with  L'Eau d'Issey the source of life by creating a  fresh, floral and woody scent with hints of lilies and soft freesia combined with sensual precious woods. A signature scent as unforgettable as unexpected. It is an all year round fragrance and just smells expensive . It is more unusual and exquisite fragrance and wafts for a fair few hours .
It costs £48.50 for 50ml.
 
I can't decide which is my favourite but I love them all for different reasons !

Colorful wintery clashy fashion

Colorful winter.
This outfit has got it all : dip dye , studs , over sized knit ,neon and animal print. All of this seasons trends in one fabulously clashy but in fashion outfit .

I think that you would have to have a very big personality to carry this outfit off .

The spiked necklace from H&M was inspired by a rather Gothic Choker worn by one of my friends.
I particularly liked the Gothic biker look and thought that I would add a little biker style choker to my outfit .

The Louboutins match the choker and I think these are a show stopping addition to the clashy outfit.

If in doubt with what to wear make it colourful .


Madewell vintage shirt / Rachel Comey wool coat / Missoni long maxi skirt / Christian Louboutin high heel pumps / ALDO spike shoes / Dorothy Perkins leopard print handbag / H&M , $13 / Marni / Miss Selfridge / Squirrell Splash

Festival of Lights: Blue and Silver



It’s no wonder that midnight blue and silver go so beautifully together; this combination is seen every evening as we gaze towards the sky at night.

 The twilight-inspired fashions in the pictures above will help give you some ideas to wear this gorgeous color contrast on your own.

 Pairing knockout silver accessories with dark denim jeans is just as effective.My personal favourite is the chunky knucleduster or dazzling arm cuff.

And since midnight blue and silver are two colors found in nearly everyone’s closet, this color combination is perfect for every budget.
