Advent Calendar - 11th December by Slikha Sidhu

What would be your perfect way to spruce up a simple black dress during this lovely festive season? Mine would be to add a bit of gold and sparkle! By adding this Gold Luxury Embellished Collar, you won't need any other accessories.

£28, River Island

Advent Calander - 10th December by Slikha Sidhu

Adding a watch to any outfit is both practical and trendy. Especially if its not too girly, with a leather strap. Vivienne Westwood is my go-to girl for watches, and you can find some great ones at ASOS.

Vivienne Westwood  ORB Brown and Gold Leather Strap Watch, £175.00

Baroque is big right now and i'm sure it's going to stick around for a while. And as the festive season is upon us, these Black Brocade Booties (£85.00) are fabulous! They can glam up an jumper and skinnies combo, or they can add sexiness to a bodycon party dress.

Advent Calendar - 8th December by Slikha Sidhu

I have been coming across a lot of box clutches at different stores in London and websites too, the most popular are the ones by McQueen. I saw this gorgeous embellished one on my trip to River Island the other day and i just had to share it. Embellished with pearls, beads and sequins, this is perfect for the festive season.

As we get into the Christmas season, its nice seeing the festive golds, reds and greens. I know it might be a bit too early, but i would really like to see more of those colours because there's not enough going around. I've found this gorgeous necklace, which will bring out the festivities with the shimmer of gold and pop of colour with the green. Check out this Angelica green statement necklace by Bansri, £37.

Living and working in London is amazing and full of inspiration, and you never know when your going to need to stop and blog about it. Is nice to carry my laptop around when I go to meetings or even some events where it will be needed. But its a bit hard when I'm carrying it in my bag. I've searched high and low for a decent laptop bag, which not only looks fab but also is of good quality. Luckily I've found this Marc Jacobs one on Net-A-Porter for £95. The fun print and pink straps add that necessary pop to any outfit.

Advent Calendar - 5th December by Slikha Sidhu

Its party season and i have been looking past that because i am so focussed on staying warm right now. The festivities are upon us and if you're anything like i am, you will probably go all out and wear an amazing dress with your legs out and the heating turned up really high. I'm loving this pink and gold Jacquard shift dress which is only £29.40 on special offer from Dorothy Perkins, original selling price  £42.00 and could go back up soon, so better be quick.

Advent Calendar - 4th December by Slikha Sidhu

Possibly two of the biggest trends this season. Leather and studs brought together by ASOS to bring you one of the hottest skirts i've seen in recent times. The high-waisted, A-line skirt can be worked in a number of ways; with a shirt, jumper and slipper shoes for a day look. Or slip on a vest, a couple of necklaces and shoe boots and you're ready for a night out.

ASOS Stud Skirt in Leather, £95

London Fashion Bloggers Christmas Meet-up by Slikha Sidhu

Where: Bumpkin, Notting Hill
What: London Fashion Blogger Christmas Meet-up
When: Monday 3rd Dec
Who: Diana Kakkar of Trendbridged.com

This was the second meet-up for the London Fashion Bloggers, but the first one that i had the pleasure to be part of. Organised by the lovely Diana for the Bloggers based all around London. We had delicious Canapes supplied by Bumpkin, jewellery by Kukee (more later) and a guest speaker Travis Lee Street. The idea behind this was to get bloggers and brands together and get networking, hopefully leading to a creative collaboration. It was a great chance to meet Bloggers from all over the city both established and newbies. The next one will be in January, which i will keep you guys updated on.

Advent Calendar - 3rd December by Slikha Sidhu

So its the 3rd day of my favourite month (minus the cold weather), which means yet another item(s) to go onto the our advent calendar. I've recently seen a lot of people rocking hi-tops, in a variety of styles and brands. In particular, i would probably go for Nike. They have quite a big selection in different colours, patterns and shape. I am especially loving these gold, white and mustard Nike Blazer Mid Vintage Liberty, £75. Makes stepping out into the cold not only comfy but stylish too.

Advent Calendar - 2nd Dec by Slikha Sidhu

Second day of this magical month and so far, so good; the list is slowly increasing, and the temperature is rapidly decreasing. A great way to keep the cold away from our delicate little bodies and look uber stylist at the same time, is with this Tassle hem faux fur gillet, £55.00, from www.topshop.com. Wear this over a denim shirt, leather pants and hi-tops, for a laid-back look.

Advent Calendar - 1st Dec by Slikha Sidhu

December has begun, so you know what that means?! Only 24 days till Christmas. In these coming days, i will bring to you my own advent calendar, filled with 25 things that are on my Christmas wish-list. First up is this cute pyjama set from River Island (. The on-trend moustache motif with black and white stripes, this is perfect for those frosty December nights. I actually think that you could also pair this sweatshirt with a pair of jeans and heeled boots for a day look too.
