It's been a while since we had some bag lovin on this blog, so I'm bringing it back!
I got a new bag recently and am so happy with it I thought I would share it with you guys.
So the bag I got was a Michael Kors bag (I know, everyone has them now). I'll be honest I'd been eyeing the black version of this bag for a while. I really like quilted bags, but know I will never get my hands on a Chanel one, so I figured this was the next best thing!
Michael Kors make really good quality bags & they're soft leather ones are really nice.
So this bag is the Sloan Large quilted-leather should bag. You can get it in a few different colours, but I went for the grey. I went for this partly because it's something different as all my other bags are black & because I just really liked the grey. Grey still goes with everything, like black does.
So the bag itself is made of really nice quality soft leather. It has a shoulder strap with can either be used as two shorter handles or one cross body length handle. I prefer to use it with the two shorter, as it fits perfectly under your arm that way. This is great for anti-theft reasons.
Another thing I really like about this bag is the clasp, as it's not that easy to get into (again for anti-theft reasons this is great. PS can you tell I've had my purse stolen before!!)
My purse fits perfectly in this bag too, which is great as it's quite a large purse. The bag has two sections with a zip section in the middle, as well as the usual phone pockets & back zip. So there are plenty of places to put values, as well as essentials.
Overall it wasn't a cheap bag, but for me definitely worth the price.
I debated over this bag for a while, but the anti-theft features on it really sold me.
I still get super paranoid about my purse & phone getting stolen, but with this bag it's pretty much impossible.
I saw this video on Evelina's youtube channel & loved the sound of it!
So I wanted to film my own version of 'If I Had Five Shoes'.
So here are the five pairs of shoes I chose, if I could only have have five.
The first pair are my Topshop wedges, these are my most comfort heels & it's always good to have a wedge in your wardrobe!
The second pair are wedges too but in the form of a hidden heel. These are my much loved Nike Sky High Dunks. I wear these everyday, literally everyday! I cannot live without them!
The third pair are another pair of Nike's, these are my running trainers. I picked these because what else would I wear to workout? Plus the arch support in these is great & essential for me.
The fourth pair are my only pair of designer shoes, which are my Jimmy Choo's. These are such a classic style of shoe, it's hard to say no.
The last pair are my Kurt Geiger Carvela heels with the crystals on the heel, just because well they're gorgeous & they fit really nicely.

I am such a sucker for fragrance, if you guys hadn't already noticed from this series!
Sooo, we're going to be talking about another favourite of mine.
This time we're going to be talking the original Roberto Cavalli fragrance.
He does have some others out but this one is the original & in my opinion the best!
If you like a good strong fragrance this is one for you! It packs a good punch & really lasts (even through showers). This is definitely an evening fragrance for me, as it's a little too strong for the daytime in my opinion. Due to it being so strong it means a little goes a long way, hence why it looks like I've barely used this perfume.
They only offer an eau de perfum in the Cavalli fragrances so the price is the price, there isn't a cheaper eau de toilette alternative. However I don't think this fragrance would work as an eau de toilette.
The notes of this fragrance are orange flower, plum, pink peppercorn, green mandarin & roasted tonic beans creating a balsamic floral scent.
It's a warm & seductive scent which I think is wearable for a wide age range.
It's definitely worth having a sniff when you're next in a perfume retailer.
Jewellery isn't something I talk about much here, not because I don't like it but because I've very fussy about my jewellery.
I'm not a fan of cheap jewellery that goes green, as I'm the sort of person who only wears certain pieces but wears them permanently. So really I look for staple jewellery which will go with everything & matches the jewellery I already have.
So onto my favourite pieces!
Firstly there is my Michael Kors watch which I have had for years, which is a rose gold one.
I know every woman & her dog has one now but surely that just makes me trend setter (haha).
I had been looking for a few nice rings for years but when I got this watch rose gold wasn't such a big thing. However recently Thomas Sabo have been stocking some gorgeous rose gold rings! As well as other pieces (necklaces, bracelets, earrings etc).
The ring in the photo is from Thomas Sabo which I wear all the time, I don't even take it off to shower!
These pieces are also amazing quality they don't fade or change colour!
I would recommend them to anyone. So if you're on the hunt for some special jewellery definitely check these brands out.
Michael Kors now do rose gold bracelets, rings etc too!
When it comes to accessories I love a good designer treat!
I somehow feel it's more justifiable, as I'll use them more. ;)
So my current bag of choice is this beauty.
This is the Michael Kors Susannah quilted leather large tote.
I love Michael Kors bags as they're designer but not overly expensive. You can also grab a bargain if you catch them on sale or at discount designer outlets.
I was looking for a larger day to day bag but not something huge and this is just perfect!
The leather is also amazingly soft & good quality.
