I am... The Glamour Queen

Another week, another style! and this week it is all about glamour!

However in the heat of glamourama, my camera and I had a fight. There were tears, and it resulted in not so many photos of my glamorous outfit. :(

I hope I always look glamorous (to some extent at least), and in another life, I want to be Christina Hendricks. For now, I can but try and find clothes that flatter my curves and accessorise them with simple and elegant jewellery.






and to finish off, a glamorous kiss! :) 


Dress: Dorothy Perkins// shoes: Next // Necklaces: *Stras et paillettes* and *Winterland*

Style it with... #2

This week we are all about glamour! Mixing a velvet dress from Monsoon with stunning velvet shoes with some elegant and feminine jewellery.

The Glamour Queen is me (well, I'd like to think so); it is certainly the style that suits me and my curves most and which makes me feel the most like a grown-up woman (odd thing to say for somebody who likes Hello Kitty, bunny lamps and stickers so much!).

and you, what's your style?

Things I heart #2

 Drinking tea. I'd go as far as say that it's a defining feature in me.

Montmartre, where Amélie lives. Paris in general I might add.

 My Singer machine, and more recently bought, my new black and gold bonbonnière (John Lewis)

My very kitsch but very adorable Piggy bank... a childhood belonging.  

Making a necklace which I am very proud of. *Stras et paillettes*

My art deco clutch. Found at TK Maxx, so very lush. 

Autumn and its changing colours

The Christmas gift guide is now online!

I very much enjoy doing gift guides, they really put me into the festive mood, and I become every so excited when it is finally time to launch them!

You can view last year's here... but for now, make room for the 2012 gift and inspiration guide, soft and fluffy with a dreamy atmosphere mixed with a little poetry - what's not to like?

I hope you like it as much as I did making it!

Click on the images to view them in bigger, alternatively, you can view the guide on Issuu here or on Yudu here and or Scribd here - all those are interactive so you can click on each product to be redirected to the product page.

ENJOY! :)

I am.... Casual Chic

 So how did I style my Casual Chic look yesterday? With super high heels (for me!), a nicely oversized wool jumper, smart black jacket and lots of pretty jewellery!

(No face photos this time, I did those early in the morning and hadn't quite woken up yet!)

Photos please!

Thank you so much to everybody who entered my latest competition to win a Collectibles bracelet of your choice.

I note that the 'dark night' ribbon was especially popular (5 entries out of 16)!

Because you were all so nice to me and loved my bracelets so much, I decided to give TWO away instead of one - I'm nice like that! :)

So the winners are:



Please email me your address at hello@parisinabottle.net and you will soon receive a very pretty bracelet, made just for you!
