Pink Fluffy Keyring - Molly Trubody

Lilac Glitter Heeled Jellies - New Look 

Back Marabou Feather Trim Socks - DIY

As I said earlier this week me and my boy are anti-Valentines but it doesn't stop me buy myself loads of cool n cute things - I mean, who doesn't adore Love Hearts?!

This cute polo neck crop and skater skirt is from a new brand I've discovered via Asos called Ichiban, all the stuff they make is really bright and crazy! Will be watching Ichiban alot in the future I'd imagine there summer range will be awesome if these sweet treats are anything to go by!

Another Asos-ish releated buy is my Molly Trubody Keyring which I picked up from the Asos Graduates market at the Clothes Show in December. She makes the most amazing fluffy tees, skirts and keyrings and I am so looking forward to her SS15 range too! . Sadly I broke this keyring a couple of days before I shot these pics after I really stupidly trod on it whilst lifting up my bag after a meeting last week in Brighton :(  (I was cheered up moments later cus it turned out they had an office sausage dog!!! :) :)

 I found all the heart shaped beads and have fabric glued it on to a piece of pink elastic for now, thankfully its still holding! The lilac satchel/backpack itself is also a newbie from River Island which I've have been dying to use which I am now its not so chilly! absolutely love satchels now I've decided, may have to start collecting more pastel shades (hint hint River Island, please make even more of these in all the colours possible!)

Lastly, I've also gone full out pastel n lilac lovin with these cute heeled jellies from New Look which are also available in mint. My memorys of jelly shoes in the 90s were that they were uncomfortable so I have avoided this trend up till now, they are actually really comfy! They've made these with a more plasticy straps rather then the thick jelly material so they don't seem to rub, they also have glitter in the heels! <3 Def feeling alot more spring-like in this outfit

As you may have seen late last year, I popped along to the Clothes Show Live in December for a day of non stop fashion worshipping and of course, shopping!

My fave part of the shopping stalls was the Asos Graduate Marketplace, ten finalists were picked by industry experts to retail, free of charge, at the 2014 Clothes Show Live & were also given the opportunity to retail their collections online in their own boutique through Asos Marketplace

One of the brands that really stood out to me was Karizma, she graduated from London College of Fashion in 2011 and was spotted & commissioned to create pieces for Little Mix's final X-Factor performance. Her designs are known in the fashion industry for her rebellious, high voltage style and she has since then gone on to create pieces for many pop groups and celebrities including The Saturdays, Tess Daley & Poppy Delvigne.

My fave piece from the Karizma range at the Clothes Show had to be this boxy feather trim crop top, like all of her designs its really unique and a total stand out item. It looks great teamed up with these edgy H&M biker trousers to give the soft feathers of the top a more tougher contrasty look.

You can find the boutique on Asos Marketplace here

I'l be featuring more amazing Asos Graduates in the coming weeks, keep your eyes peeled! :)
