Little Unique Piece

Hello everyone! 
I hope you are all well? So Monday is here & gone already.
Just like the weekend did, I swear you really do blink & the weekend just goes. I didn't have an overly busy weekend but I did take a trip to lakeside for abit of retail therapy. As always it does make you feel good. The primark is just amazing! It's massive! You could literally get lost in there. I did get a fair bit I will admit. But hey I think I jolly well deserved a treat. 

As you may know from a previous blog post of mine I am a big lover of jewellery. 
I like more personal pieces & unique ones. As opposed to ones you pick up in say a normal kind of jewellers like beaver brooks & things. I like to have pieces that not everyone has & you can personalise if you wish to. 

Recently I've come across a brand called Yasmin Marie. Which I found the pieces of jewellery to be so unique which I absolutely love! The brand hasn't been running all that long. They officially launched in November 2016. By a lady called Yasmin Marie Tubbritt with her aim to create a brand which was unique, fun & interesting. All their pieces are made with 925 sterling silver & rhodium plating which fits in nicely with the vintage theme which Yasmin takes her inspiration from. I think it works oh so well! 

Each piece is designed to give the customer a choice on how they want to wear it. Which means they are very universal. Some people choose not to buy a pendant piece to add to the bracelets. They buy the bracelet. Remove the stoppers & just wear it plain. Or it can be worn with a pendant you purchase by being added to the bracelet like a charm. But the great thing is you can simply buy one pendant or more & add it to the bracelet to create a charm bracelet look. Which  I love about the collections because I love charm bracelets. It's like building a piece of new jewellery which tells a story of you or that you want to tell. Necklaces can also be taken apart & the pendant can be removed & added to a bracelet. So you basically get to customise your own piece & make it unique to you & I just love that idea that not one piece is the same. 

Items can be brought together as a set or as individuals. Depending on what you are looking for. So you can purchase a standard bracelet & then buy the pendant that you want to add to it or buy the necklace & then add the pendant you wish to it. You really can mix it up & style it just how you wish to. 

It's such a unique style & way of things! The designs are nothing like I've seen from any other company. I think anyone who creates a business of their own from scratch & has amazing ideas & strive to dream big about their company is amazing. I truly do. It's people like that who I think we should support more. The smaller businesses & help make their dream come true. I much rather would buy from smaller businesses now as opposed to big brands. Because the quality of the products, the customer service you receive is more pleasant, you help support their own dream & the products are more unique & not massed produced. I know what I'd much rather. I just really wish more people would. 

The piece I fell in love with was the bracelets. Like I mentioned earlier I love charm bracelets so to me they stood out. I choose the  classic bracelet with the floral key pendant. Simply because it's such a beautiful design & I am definitely a sucker for floral patterns. It is just beautiful! The key pendant has a dainty floral design to the middle of the key. Which a crystal located at the top of link that goes on the bracelet. Also two stoppers which keep the pendant in place & from slipping off the bracelet. So like a safety net. 

I literally am in love with the piece & have had so many comments about it from people. It definitely makes amazing arm candy! 

I will definitely be adding to my collection & building it up. Especially when more pendants become available. They are a brand worth looking out for because I truly believe they are going to be big!

Little Stocking Fillers

21:42pm
Good Evening!
Wow we are Wednesday already! How times flies when you're having fun! This week is going pretty quick I have to say. Half way through the working week already.

I still cannot get over the fact that we are in November already! How have we got to the 11th month? I think I have like blinked & this year has gone. It's actually pretty scary don't you think?
We have like next to no time left till Christmas & I have only just got one present so far. Which is for my nephew because let's face it a two year old is easy to buy for & easily pleased unlike some difficult people.

I think at Christmas time sometimes you can struggle to find like smaller presents of like a lower value. Sometimes you don't want to purchase a big expensive present you might want to buy lots of little ones or like even stocking fillers sometimes things of a lower value are a nightmare to track down. Especially if you want something small & personal. Not your normal beauty products or food items. You want somehow to add your own personal touch to it & one thing I have mentioned to you before was initial items. As you may know I cannot get enough of them! I have a phone case, keyring, bracelet, necklace. I think that is it....

I think initial or personalised items definitely give things that personal & thoughtful touch. Not only the fact because it's made just for them with their name on it but also because it's not something anyone can just buy & pass to someone thought has gone into it.

I have come across a company called Cover-Appeal who have a range of ladies clothing, fashion accessories & gifts. They are a pop up boutique who take their shop to charity, corporate & fashion events & another of numerous events & activities. They even offer a pop up in the comfort of your own home! What could be better a group of your friends & family & browsing through fashion! That's my idea of a perfect evening.  They do however also have an Instagram, Facebook page, twitter page & also a website where you can purchase & find out more about their items & purchase.

They do a range of perfect stocking filler ideas & smaller gift items online that I noticed on their Instagram page. Which yes is initial related but they do also do other items such as cute jewellery pieces & things. They also stock a brand called Lola and Gilbert which do some really cute quote make up bags, tote bags & purses which are all stocked on their website.

I found an initial purse which has a gold glitter letter on there. Which is like a denim colour. It is a reasonable size for both money & coins. Or you could use it as small storage bag for jewellery items & things. It has a multi person use I think. I just love how it is your initial of your name of it & you get to choose that. Super cute! The face that is is under £7 too I think is a bargain & just perfect for a cute little stocking filler or part of a present for someone this Christmas. There are others that they do in the range which are not personalised. They have perfect girlie quotes like "better to arrive late than ugly" Perfect idea for anyone you know who loves a funny girly quote

But not only that if it's clothing you are looking for they have some perfect autumnal pieces & other bits! So if you want some great Christmas gift ideas definitely check them out!

Oh so personal!

Today I could not be anymore excited to get home from work & open my post!
As I knew what had arrived for me! I felt just like a kid at Christmas!

Recently I have fallen in love with literally anything personalised. You name it you now seem to be able to get anything personalised. Bags, make up cases, phone cases, keyrings, almost anything.
I purchased a phone case a little while ago now which has my initials on it & I absolutely love it!
I think it looks lovely especially with the little heart that's on it too. It's a cute little personal touch & it's obviously something not everyone has what with my very own initials on it & that I love.

So when I came across a page on Instagram which does more personalised things I was very happy!
The company is called DS London. The company is based in London & all items are hand crafted all in Britain! For me that's something unique you cannot say many things are both locally & also made in Britain these days. Most are from China or whatever so to me this was even more of a great thing.
All items are hand made & crafted individually. So not one item is the same. You can pick up personalised leather Keyrings, leather bags, card holders & other items are soon being added to their collection. But they are all beautiful pieces! I love the bags too! All the items I find are not only lovely to look at but also look very classy & elegant. A must have in my eyes. 

Looking through their Instagram to me helped me get an idea of what the company offered & I was very interested in that. Their Instagram page showcased their items so well & they all look so good! 

When I opened my package today after work I was in love! 
At the time of ordering I was stuck on what colour to purchase because they all looked so good & all the colours would go with anything. But in the end I decided after help & advice from a friend. Yes thank you Steph :) 
I went for mink, a nice simple colour but also classy & a colour that goes with a lot & is better than a boring black or tan. I think it helps make the writing stand out better too. The quality of the keyring is just beautiful. I am so so happy with it & glad I got it to go with my car key & house key. Let's face it keys can be hard to find in your bag once you put them in there. Especially with that large size bags I have. This keyring will definitely help me find my keys easier. That's definitely a bonus, not only that but it will also look good on a bag, or on my keys. 

I just love love the fact it goes so well with my phone case! 
So pleased with this! It's the little things you could say. 

The people who I contacted at the company have been so lovely & kind to me. Such amazing customer service & to me that's so important. 
They have even been so kind as to give me a code to offer you lot a discount! 
If you use the discount code: CM10 on their website you can receive a discount on your purchase! So don't miss out.
