Preppy Patterns
Hello beautifuls,
I was in the mood to go completely Preppy today. The pink jewels on the top were the perfect colour to contrast the tones of blue throughout my outfit. I felt the navy blazer brought out the darker tones in skirt. When styling and trying to choose a colour from your outfit to match or accessorize with, always choose one of the less prominent colours. This always creates a more complimentary effect.
Hope you are all having a fabulous week.

Healthy Coconut Balls (Paleo)
I have another yummy and healthy recipe for you. I've recently been trying out a bit of Paleo cooking. I know coconut balls a traditionally Christmas food, however this recipe was too good not to share.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup Prunes or Mejool Dates
1 cup Almond Meal
2 Tbsp Chia Seeds
2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 Tbsp Cocoa or Cacao Powder
2 Tbsp Freshly Squeezed Orange Juice or Coconut Oil
1/2 cup shredded coconut plus extra for rolling.
Method:
- Add prunes, almond meal, Chia seeds, vanilla extract, cocoa powder, coconut to a food processor and blend.
- Gradually add orange juice. Blend until mix begins to stick together.
- Place a small amount of coconut into a bowl to rolling mixture into balls.
- Using a teaspoon take small portions of the mixture and roll into balls. Place in bowl and cover in coconut.
- Try not to eat them all at once.
Hope that gives you an idea for a healthy snack this week.
Have a fabulous week.

Lilac Box Pleat Skirt
Hello beautifuls,
Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. This weekend has definitely been busy with uni work. As usual I can't wait to break into the colours of the next season. I have been buying so many things from boohoo.com lately. This skirt is one of my latest purchases. I've tried to keep it nice and simple today and let the colour of the skirt speak for itself. My makeup today I was trialing for my birthday. Let me know what you think. I'd like to stick with a rather natural look.

Have a fabulous weekend.

Adding colour to Winter
Hello beautifuls,
I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend so far. I've decided to embrace colour this week with my usual preppy style, but with the addition of some grunge boots. I'm also rather excited because I've had the ends of my hair redone, so there is a lot more blonde now. These colours are usually considered Spring colours, rather than Winter. However I couldn't wait to wear them.
