TK MAXX: Store Opening
A couple of weeks ago I was invited to the opening of a new TK Maxx store in Warrington which is not too far away from where I live! I've never been to a store opening before but the buzz when one is opening is mad!
Considering the store was due to open at 9am I got there for about half 8. I was near to the front of the queue which was good! The queue was massive about 10 minutes later!
They had all the important people to do with the store outside waiting for the store to open. They cut the ribbon and celebrated by giving the customers who walked in first chocolate! (yumyum)
(It was so busy considering its about 10 past 9 in the morning when I took this photo!)
A few things caught my eye when I walked into the store. There was a gorgeous collection of scarves and I really loved this top...
I really loving all things embellished at the moment! Lucky enough I had a £10 gift card for being one of the first 100 people through the door! (yay!)

The Style Tour
This weekend I had the chance to combine several activities that I love: shopping, styling, and chatting about personal style and trends with fashion experts. As part of the Westfield Style Tour, I had a complimentary consultation at the shopping center with a Style for Hire stylist, who helped me to pick out an outfit based upon my lifestyle, body type, and trend preferences. What better way to
American Flag Shorts Day-Night Look
I was pretty convinced my camera was broken today! It would have been a very big disaster, but luckily it's working! (wahoo!)
And recently I've been thinking about simple outfits which could be worn with heels. I wore this to college today with brogues and baggy jumper but It just shows how one outfit can be converted from Day-Night with the right shoes and accessories!
Scalloped vest top - Topshop
Shorts - Topshop.

Skater Girl
The 'Skater' dress seems to be the dress of the moment and pretty much all of my friends seem to already own one. I think they are more popular as most of them are just in simple plain colours with a brown belt and they look fab with a pair of heels. I've opted for a stripey one. It's not something I'd usually go for but I seem to be a bit more daring lately...
My Multi-Retro Stripe Skater Dress was already a bargain at £20 but with the discount for FASHION-TRAIN READERS (check the banner for 10% off) I got it for £18!
Personally I was pretty excited about this bargain when it was coming in the post...
I love how this dress is tight fitting at the top and loose at the bottom it's very true to size. Size 10 is fitting me perfectly! I think this dress would be great for some of the parties going on right now and it's great dressed up or down. I'm thinking about investing in a wine coloured dress for later on this year... probably December time!

The Style Lowdown: Mobo Awards 2011
The Mobo Awards were held in Glasgow on Wednesday night and it's the awards I most love to watch. Mobo Awards stands for (Music of Black Origin Awards) and it's a ceremony where I love every artist who performs at the show and pretty much every artist nominated! (so it's 2 hours of worthwhile tv!) I normally find myself skipping bits of awards such as The Britt's as they really don't interest me...
But Yes onto The Mobo's I always watch these shows and analyse what everyone is wearing (think it's an instinct now) but here's some of the celebrities outfits!
(L-R Dionne Bromfield, Yasmin & Jessie J)
I really loved Dionne Bromfield's outfit. You'd never believe she's only 15?! She sang an amazing tribute to her Godmother Amy Winehouse which was amazing! I love how Dionne look's classy and stylish at the same time and her hair looks gorgeous too!
I've not really heard of Yasmin but she's getting bigger and bigger and I like a few of her songs but her outfit for The Mobo's really stood out, doesn't she look absolutely stunning?!
Jessie J took home 4 Mobo's on wednesday night which is amazing for an artist who's been around less than a year. I absolutely love her and think she's so inspiring. I think this bodysuit suits her down to the ground considering it's all she seems to wear in her music videos!
(L-R Katy B, Jessie J & Alexis Jordan)
I'm not sure what to make of Katy B's 'Telephone' Dress. It's erm interesting? But let's put it this way, only her could pull it off!
I think Jessie J can either look amazing or just really awful... I will always love her music and she looks amazing in the bodysuit in the Style Loves section but I'm really not liking this black lace number... funeral anyone?
Not sure whether R&B singer Alexis Jordan is trying to relive the Michael Jackson era with the Tassels but I just think she looks awful in her dress. Why can't she just got for a simple LBD instead?
(L-R Pop Duo Rizzle Kicks, Labrinth & Dappy from Ndubz)
Who could forget the stylish men from the event? Rizzle Kicks are looking casual but smart at the same time with their trousers and casual with a plain jumper and a baseball cap! I'm not sure whether I like Labrinth's outfit but he pulls it off. I don't think anyone else will EVER pull off a bright orange suit with a turtle neck and who could forget his Topmman shoes?! What a stylish singer (wahoo!) And there's Dappy from N-Dubz sporting his usual Attire Na Na Niiiiii!
What did you think of the Mobo's? Did you watch them? Who do you think dressed the best?

Diamond Jewellery Store
I really like how there's a real variety of rings available now. Not so long ago you'd only be able to find a ring in your local jewellery store/retailer and now the online jewellery retailers are doing better than ever. With hundreds and hundreds of rings available at just one online retailer who can't resist but to have a look. Engagement Rings seem to be online jewellery retailers biggest sellers but who can forget a nice piece of diamond Jewellery?
Here's some of the pieces of Jewellery available at The Diamond Store!
The prices are a teeny bit out of my price range but a girl can dream...
