Personalise Your Clutch || MNO.logie

This post is for the ladies who are impossible to buy for, which makes this must-have the perfect gift!

Recently I came across a style accessory online that I couldn't resist buying. For those who know me well enough you know that I am a total shopaholic - when I see something I want I just have to have it and these gorgeous perspex acrylic clutches were no exception. I love a fab clutch for a big night out or even as an accessory for a mellow dinner date, so it's fair to say that I have always loved clutches of all different designs. However, this clutch from MNO.logie is at the top of my favourites list! 

So how is this beauty made? It is handmade of course, and the clasps are made of recycled coins, which I thought was very cool and clever! Also, you get a choice of what pouch you would like for the inside of your clutch (with so many options), and more importantly it's personalised to me. 

BELONGS TO LEAH

Above is a photo of my new clutch and below there are photos of many other clutches that are featured on MNO.logies's official website, Facebook page and Instagram feed. You can find the links to each of these pages below too.

I hope you love these fabulous accessories as much as I do. I can't wait to use mine for the first time!

Family Holiday 2013

These past few days have been absolutely perfect. Spending time with my close family in a beautiful location was just what what the doctor ordered. Last Friday, all 11 of us headed off on an adventure to celebrate a milestone - my Baba and Dedo's 50th Wedding Anniversary!!! 50 years is such a long time to be committed to your soul mate so we all felt it needed to be celebrated accordingly. We arrived at our gorgeous abode in Dunsborough feeling so excited and overjoyed to be spending 4 days in peaceful bliss - what could be better? It really was a trip to be remembered and what better way to hold onto those beautiful memories than by taking lots and lots of snapshots. So here's a sneak peek into our weekend family holiday in Dunsborough, Western Australia. ENJOY!

Things I Love

Chanel: Collections and Collections 

*NEW ARRIVAL*

Over a month ago I ordered this stunning Chanel: Collections and Creations coffee table book and today it finally arrived! I am so happy it's in my hot little hands as I've heard that it's a great read and so very informative. If you love Coco Chanel as much as I do then this is undoubtedly the book for you! Read one of my previous posts to find out what the book entails in full detail. I've already started flicking through it and it has such attention to detail in the text and photos that I can already see it will be a definite page turner. LOVE!

Enjoy the rest of your Tuesday!

Breakfast

Breakfast with a side of Vogue ❥

The title says it all…

This morning I had Chobani natural flavoured Greek Yoghurt with berries, whilst flicking through Vogue magazine. I am absolutely loving Chobani Greek Yoghurt - YUM! If you haven't tried it then you should definitely do so. Sounds like a perfect morning, right? I love starting my day off with a positive vibe and I find that by making my morning super exciting (like preparing a yummy breakfast) gives you a whole new energy and outlook on how your day will be.

I hope that each and every one of you reading this will find happiness in your day.
