Purple Obsession

My absolute favourite colour of the moment is purple purple purple and lilac in particular.  My eye goes straight to it these days; I just can’t resist.  It’s pretty and it suits so many different skin tones.

Here’s a random collection of my favourite purple things.

This lovely jumper from Zara is perfect for spring.  Here in Britain the weather rarely gets really hot and so even though the sun has been appearing a little bit more frequently lately you still need to wrap up warm.  The pretty lilac colour gives it that spring-y look.

I jumped on the Bobble bottle train a few months ago and despite hearing mixed reviews I am very much a fan.  The built in filter means that your water is always clean and fresh, plus you only need to change it after every 300 uses!  You can get them in all kinds of colours but of course I went for the lilac one.

I don’t have enough good things to say about this GORGEOUS nail polish.  If you buy one thing this spring, make it ‘Splash of Grenadine’ from Essie.

Purple cotton buds from Tiger… I told you this purple thing had become an obsession!

In my book, nothing beats a nice pair of thick woolly socks and this lilac pair from Gap are so snuggly and warm.

Have a good week!

 

On the Second Day of Christmas…A Sparkly Statement Necklace from Zara

Words cannot describe how much I love this gorgeous necklace from Zara.  Isn’t it just the most beautifully sparkly thing you’ve ever seen?  My photo doesn’t even do it justice. Any girl would be absolutely thrilled to unwrap this on Christmas day.  With New Years parties just around the corner, you won’t have to worry about what to wear – with this on you’ll definitely be the centre of attention.  It glitters so beautifully when it catches the light and goes with so many outfits.  I’m planning on wearing mine with a simple black top and red lips!

For a statement necklace it is not too heavy around your neck but sits really nicely when it is on.  It has a lobster clasp fastening and you can adjust the length to fit whatever neckline you have on.

And if you want something with a bit more colour, have a look at the rest of Zara’s jewellery; they have some amazing pieces at the moment.

At £29.99 it is fairly pricey but it is well made and looks absolutely fantastic.  It is definitely something that can be worn again and again and would make a very special present.
