Collectif A/W '15 Launch Party Brighton | teacups and tealights

Collectif party in Brighton? Don't mind if I do!

I was excited about this party as soon as Collectif posted their plans on Facebook. Three parties to celebrate their new Autumn/Winter 2015 collection, one in their Spitalfields Market store, the second in their Brighton Bond Street store and the last in Camden Market. 

I was sold on the idea immediately as I love the brand so much, but with free bubbly, singers and vintage hair styling... how could I not go? 

So I have fallen in love... | teacups and tealights

I met the coat of my dreams a few days ago. 

Pearl Coat - Collectif Clothing

Oh my goodness I love it so much. It was during a spontaneous trip to Brighton with a dear friend of mine from secondary school. She happens to know the Brighton Laines like the back of her hand (I am not so fortunate) so shopping around that area with her is a brilliant experience. We started in Bond Street where I spied the 'Collectif Clothing' shop sign.

I felt very polka dotty today... | teacups and tealights

Addition to the Handbag Family! | teacups and tealights

I recently received a belated 18th birthday present from my Auntie, who I rarely get to see as she lives far away from me. This means that we don't get a lot of time to talk about the things we love so buying presents for each other is pretty tricky. Despite this, I completely and utterly loved it! It turned out to be something I had had on my wishlist for ages...
