With the high street having such a broad range at great prices you can't resist them! I always go for vintage usually when buying xmas jumpers as you are guaranteed no one will have the same! Shop online at Beyond Retro for a huge selection now at 50% off!

I went for this slightly festival H&M jumper which is so warm and cosy! I styled it with a metallic gold mini skirt from Boohoo for a bit of christmas sparkle and my French Connection coat and white fur stole over my shoulder. My red Florian bag worked perfectly with the festive colours and finished of the look with a faux fur hat and jungly Christmas earrings!

Hope you guys are feeling Christmassy and getting involved in the festivities....

Naomi's Week In Style



A very sparkly week in style post just in time for New Years tomorrow! If you still don't know what your wearing for New Years celebrations then this might help you - there's still time! Whatever you are doing for New Years make sure you do it in style and have the most fantastic start to 2014! May it be a very successful and happy year for us all! 

1. Miss Selfridge Embellished Dress

Embellishment is a must to stand out at New Years and this dress is perfect. Gorgeous Grecian style with amazing detailing a perfect party dress. 

2. Boohoo Net Skirt

These are fab to wear with a sequin or dressed up top and look super chic! Different to a dress and bang on trend- Carrie Bradshaw eat your heart out!

3. River Island Head Chain

I am partial to a head chain/ accessory and this one is amazing! It looks like it has more structure than my other ones and I love all the detail! Perfect to dress up a simple outfit or dress. 

4. All Saints Dress

All saints do sequin dresses so well and you will wear them to death so definitely worth the money! This one is a gorgeous shape and would look great dressed up with heels or dressed down with chunky black boots and a leather jacket. 

5. Miss Selfridge Body Chain 

These are great to dress up a simple top or black dress and look great! If you don't want to invest in a new outfit but want to look amazing then buy into a body chain like this- they are great pieces to have in your wardrobe especially for the festive period! 

6. Miss Selfridge Embellished Top

This is super cute and I absolutely love the ethnic style embellishment! Will look great teamed with a skirt and a fur jacket.

7. ASOS Fur Clutch 

It's all about mixing texture to create amazing and interesting outfits so this clutch is absolutely spot on for that! Mix sequins, PVC and embellishment with the fur clutch to be party season ready! 

8. Topshop Fur Jackef

AW is an excuse to look like the snow queen and totally rock it so make the most out of fur and sequins. This cream fur jacket is gorgeous and is so much nicer than black. It will look great with a sequin dress underneath for a night out. 

9. ASOS Mesh Insert Dress

This dress is super sexy and a mesh insert is always a head turner for party wear! ASOS are great for bodycon dresses like this and this one is top of my list and it's in the sale- winner!

Have a great new year everyone!

I'm so unbelievably excited to share this edit with you for my favourite vintage hangout Beyond Retro. TSOP have done a few guest posts for their blog over the last year so felt it would be fun to do a Christmas Party edit featuring an overload of sequins and sparkle - perfect for Christmas! 

I was lucky enough to work with the amazing Holly McGlynn again, who brought my dreams to reality shooting this 4 part lookbook. We wanted to capture the fun and festivity of Christmas and what better way to do that than at the famous Winter Wonderland. I ate candyfloss, drank mulled wine, cuddled teddy bears and went on the carosel- we had an all round fun day of shooting! I think the lookbook captures the essence of how to wear vintage at Christmas and the Beyond Retro identity. Make sure you head to Beyond Retro online or Instore to get your sequin fix! 

Part 4 and the final part of my Christmas Party Edit and of course I saved the best until last! I really do love these shots the hazy winter sun with the Ferris wheel in the background and of course the amazing BR pieces! 

The gold plunge dress is a perfect Christmas party piece that has the vintage but sexy edge! I love the metallic gold print and ruching around the stomach. The dress is black velvet at the bottom and is a definite head turner! I wore it simple with my black fur stole and dark green turban. A statement earring from Chelsea Doll and black clutch from Boohoo was just enough accessorising. I wore an open wedge sandal with a glittery sock which I always think looks really cute for parties in winter.

I hope you all have enjoyed this 4 part lookbook and it has influenced you to rock the sequins for Christmas! Massive thank you to Hannah from BR and to Holly for photographing these amazing shots.

Part 3 of my Christmas Party Lookbook is tacky central! Christmas is the only time of the year you can go sequin on sequin, look like a Christmas decoration yet look so right - so make the most of it!

I went for a black and gold sequin top with amazing leaf and sheer detailing and mixed it with a gold sparkly skirt both of course Beyond Retro! I love a vintage turban so felt this complimented the look perfectly and don't forget the jingle bells sunnies which added to the festive cheese! 

What festive accessories are getting you in the mood?

Part 2 of my Beyond Retro Christmas Party Lookbook is all around one of my favourite vintage essentials the 'trophy sequin top'  The oversized shape and the amount of detail and beading make it a perfect Christmas piece to have in your wardrobe!

For this look I wore it with a black lace skirt and wore my feather cape over the top to create drama- they are great for the party season! This look didn't need accessorising as it's super glitzy so I teamed it with a clean patent black heeled boots which I always much prefer to a heel as it means I can dance the night away! 

What trophy vintage piece do you rely on for the Christmas season?

For part 1 I went for a metallic high neck mini dress which has the most amazing  metallic design on the top half and black bottom. Christmas is all about looking like a tree decoration as after all it's the only time of year you can get away with it! I layered the dress with this stunning sequin jacket, which is a staple piece for this time of year! I love the sparkle and accessorised it simply with my blue fur stole and holographic clutch. I hope you like!

Naomi's Week In Style



A well overdue week in style post from me, but one that's definitely worth the wait! At the moment I am heavily buying into anything textured and embellished ready for Christmas!! I can't believe it's just round the corner (I am so not ready!) maybe this post will help for Christmas Day or New Years outfits- I no I plan on looking like a human glitterball while eating my Christmas dinner this year!

1. Topshop Oriental Sequin Kimono

I brought the evening dress in this (as wore to the Company party) in a previous post and I absolutely LOVE the washed out Palm prints and sequin detailing! The kimono came in store earlier this week and I absolutely love it! Kimonos are great to throw on over an outfit and look great- they also look amazing with a big fur stole! 

2. Virgos Lounge Sequin Dress ASOS

I posted the maxi skirt in a previous week in style and I just absolutely love the heavy gold sequins which a perfect for the party season! This dress is super cute and I love the sexy little cut out detailing! A great Christmas piece for any girls wardrobe.

3. Rat & Boa Crochet Top

Anything Rat & Boa makes me drool- the detailing, the prints, the AMAZING models on the website! It makes me want everything! The only problem is you have to be super quick as it sells out so quickly. This top has been sold out for a while but I couldn't resist sharing it with you- let's hope it comes back online so we can spend our Christmas money on it! 

4. ASOS Mesh Insert Top 

A simple top with gorgeous mesh detailing that's great to team with high waisted shorts or a skirt for a night out! Accessorise with heavy or statement necklace and be good to go! 

5. ASOS Monochrome Fur Coat

How amazing is this coat of dreams! The unusual monochrome stripes and detailing is definitely the one to stand out from the crowd this winter! I just can't help but imagine it skating at Somerset House! 

6. Shoop Floor Whore Holographic Turban

If you have seen my Instagram recently you will have seen my latest obsession with my turban! I love them and do want one in every colour possible! I thought why not combine my love for turbans and holographicness and get this beauty from website Shoop Floor Whore. 

7. ASOS Fur Trim Jumper

I saw someone wear this at the ASOS Christmas party and fell in love with it! It's so cute and playful and perfect for the Christmas season with a little tartan skirt or trousers. It's also reduced so grab it while you can! 

8. Rat & Boa Leaopard Twin Set

Amazing leopard two piece from Rat & Boa which I can't wait to wear with a kimono and loads of jewellery! At £42 aswell this is cheap yet statement and perfect for all year round.

9. ASOS Headchain 

I love any type of head chain/ head wear and this one is perfect for Christmas wear! Team with a dress, kimono and fur for the ultimate Christmas style!

My love for Bill+Mar started when I wore the marble maxi dress for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards earlier this year and since then I just can't get enough of the gorgeous prints, the edgy shapes and that Bill+Mar stamp that keeps the edge with dressed up pieces. 

The Christmas collection has done exactly that and taken every girls favourite elements- sequins and sparkle and turned them into edgy statement pieces that are guaranteed head turners!

I picked my two favourite pieces from the collection to style up which was firstly the 'Like A Diamond' playsuit. The sequin shorts have a sheer shirt top half with risky sequin pockets covering your boobs, I LOVE IT! For fashionistas generally rocking the small boobs it makes you feel sexy and that you
Can show off in other ways with the sheerness! I styled it with my statement fur coat from Miss Guided
And holographic clutch. I felt fishnets and my chunky Argo boots set this look of perfectly and For that ultimate vamp look a dark purple lip! 

The second item I picked was the 'Like A Star' Maxi Dress with cut out sides! Another risky but gorgeous piece that shows of your curves perfectly! Styling this with a knee high pop sock and a chunky boot. A statement silver necklace and textured cardi from Sister Jane's new collection. I always go for a statement clutch especially for going out so went for a snakeskin grey one with this look. 

I kept the colour palette for both looks monochrome to focus on the sparkle and sequins, which I think worked really well. Be sure to check out Bill + Mar Christmas Collection available now at http://www.billandmar.com
