Sugar Sweet Spring Accessories

I'm a sucker for a cute accessory, especially in Spring - icy and pastel colours are some of my favourites, and add a little brightness to any look - even if it's a small piece like the statement teddy phone case by Moschino i've pictured below! The rose gold Linda Farrow sunglasses are insane, i love them, and the nude make up bits are always on my want list. Also adoring the ice blue Michael Kors tote, leather pieces are often an investment but i'd say definitely worth it. The dusky pink Prada business card holder is ideal for storing business and bank cards, and is petite and sleek. I've been eyeing up some new business cards for blogging from ca.moo.com, i'm forever misplacing mine and want a fresh new design, then maybe i won't feel so guilty about splashing out on a posh new card holder!

The Monday Piece - Summer Crochet

This week's Monday Piece is on Summer Crochet! With the weather getting better i'm slowly starting to acclimatise and so have started checking out a few Summer bits - in particular the crochet trend. I think there's a fine line between trendy crochet, and tea cosy style crochet so i'll be sticking to fairly basic styles with a boho/grunge kind of feel to it! I've selected some pieces below that i loveee, especially the bikinis and crop tops. New Look and Topshop have some great crochet garms in store, as well as etsy for hand made bits and Matches Fashion for a little luxury! Im not sure i'd brave it in the weather just yet, but Summer is on the way so i might start stocking up :).

The Monday Piece - Gas Street Social Event

This week's Monday Piece is on Gas Street Social! Recently Nick and I attended the Gas Street Social launch party event in Birmingham, located in The Mailbox it's only a five minute walk from New Street train station so is ideal to get to. On arrival we were greeted with champagne, and told to expect a few things from the food menu to try. It's a bar and restaurant, and feels welcoming with an open plan design, high ceiling and neutral colour palette. There's an enticing cocktail menu, and they also offer a selection of craft beers and fine wines - if you like a tipple or two! I'm sensible so had a cranberry and lime which was refreshing and tasty, though there is a selection of non alcoholic cocktails too if you fancy something a bit more snazzy! On the tables we were given huge olives, macademia nuts and popcorn to graze on, whilst socialising with the other guests. I'm coeliac so was unsure what i could i eat, but the manager came over and spoke to me personally about the things i could and couldn't have, which was mega helpful of him! Canapes and food boards were shared out, though there wasn't much i could have due to things being coated in breadcrumbs or flour, so the chefs made me some gluten free bits which were amazing! I had scallops, which were cooked so beautifully and just melted in my mouth, then salmon skewers and a mini tuna nicoise salad - so having eaten all of that i definitely recommend the food at Gas Street Social - it was fresh, simple and tasty, as well as being locally sourced. The staff literally could not have been more helpful regarding my allergy, so i was super impressed and grateful! Check out the Gas Street Social site here if your thinking of heading over, it's fab for after work drinks, a lunch out with friends, and if you'ree in party mode at the weekend. Nick and i will be going back soon for more, we loved the buzzing atmosphere, classy character, and refreshing drinks and cuisine!
