A New Look...

Hi Guys!!

I know there has been radio silence from me the last couple of weeks... but it is for a good reason!

Keep checking the page out as I will announce a New LEWK and a new direction for Lucie's Lockets as soon as I can. 

It's all rather exciting! 

Ta Ta For Now...

#WantItWednesday (21/10/15)

So my birthday has been and gone, I am sad that I am another year older and I still have birthday money burning a hole in my pocket (that wasn't converted to gin). So I have been scouring the globe (literally) looking for ways to spend my birthday money! I shouldn't have wasted my time; the answer was right in front of me and in my own city the whole time. 

From Alex Monroe

One of my favourite jewellery designers of all time, Alex Monroe is famed for his glorious bee motif jewellery. I have spoken about my love for his craftsmanship time and time again. So when it comes to Treat 'Yo Self for your birthday I could think of nothing else I wanted 'to me, from me'

I love a pinky ring and this truly is the pinkiest of pinky rings and is just GORGEOUS! 


I wear a lot of white gold and silver jewellery and this sits with the rest of my permanent jewellery collection beautifully.  

The bee motif is classic Monroe; beautiful  and as quintessentially British as ever. Just another reason why I desperately want it! 
Each ring is personally sized so you needn't worry about it falling off like most off the rack rings and the bee is just raised enough for it to not catch on every sleeve you have ever owned (extra important during the winter months)

So yeah, this is exactly what my birthday money is going toward, much better than gin I think!

Until Next Week!

#WantItWednesday (21/01/15)

You all know I am not a fan of the cold. I hate it and makes me want to spend as much time in the warm (AKA pub) as possible. So these boots from Church's are the perfect sartorial antidote to the cold.

High Street Heroes: January

It's been a while but I thought I would trawl through the high street aimlessly so you don't have too!

With the weather being as crappy as it has been of late, I have spent most of my time trawling through coats, hats, gloves and scarves (amongst other things!)

It's cold, it is miserable, and you've a right to cheer yourself up. 
This wonderfully witty and fun tote bag from Anya Hindmarch is the perfect present to you, from you!

#WantItWednesday 07/01/15

It's cold, miserable and windy as hell. That can only mean we are in the throws one of the most depressing months of the year. Boo to January, failed resolutions, failed diets and of course, the ever present hangover of Christmas in the form of your overdraft being firmly in the red, a still niggling headache from all that champagne, red wine and baileys. I often want to hide, but life and work obviously gets in the way.

#WantItWednesday (03/09/14)



I have mithered on about the cold weather for a couple of weeks now, so it's only right that I start suggesting things that will keep you warm for the next few months. 
(and it's foggy this morning to add to my woes)

This Extra Large Tartan Scarf from Zara is something to get excited about for sure. 

I love a good scarf when it's cold and it can be the perfect autumnal accessory. 

I love the size of this, you could do your best Cara Delevingne impression with this, or weave this up and over a cocoon coat for your best nomadic impression. 

The colour on this is wonderfully on trend too. AW14 LFW was awash with brights, oranges & red to cast off (the feeling of it at least) the cold. 
If you aren't brave enough for a tangerine hue in your coat; this is an excellent nod to the trend without feeling like a total slave to fashion. 
(IMHO - nothing is wrong with that at all)

Saying that, this would also look AMAZING with my pick of AW14. 
I am totally okay with looking like a tangerine; if I feel fab I don't care and it will (mentally at least) make me feel like it's July. 

I for one wish this were in a few more colours; this is easily going to be my new favourite. Zara's large scarf offering last year was one I had just missed and I still regret it to this day. 

So get it while it's hot. You'll only regret it if you don't. Trust me.

#WantItWednesday (27/08/14)

 I am in an awful mood. Summer is truly over, a fact I cannot and will not accept and the wind is starting to creep in along with the spiders (another reason to be put in a foul mood). 
I have started to re-evaluate my wardrobe, haul the winter coats out and invest in more high denier tights, the one small consolation for the cold.

This Tartan Tunic from New Look is the answer to all of my Winter prayers.
I am and will always be a fan of tartan and I am in love with the cut of this tunic. It can be dressed up or down and will look excellent with a pair of super thick tights.

How can you not want this?! 

This looks amazing with my favourite shape of coat, cocoon and looks just as amazing with a pair of heels as it does with a pair of converse and that's no mean feat, especially with my winter essential; 150 denier tights in the blackest shade of morose black. 

So I guess this has cheered me up a little, but not as much as the second coming of Summer would.

#WantItWednesday (06/11/13)

It's getting colder outside and I for one am not happy about it! For this week's #WantItWednesday I am embracing layering in all of its glory. Gloves. Scarves and big, warm coats!

Product Image
These practical and elegant gloves are beautiful and classically cut, pick a pair in a brighter shade to highlight any winter outerwear combination. These make you feel like you are in 'Bringing Up Baby' and you'll find it will want to spend more time outside!

To complete the Hepburn-esque look, I tend to pair these beauties with an over-sized crombie, in either camel or navy, with a thick scarf or pashmina; with a pair of sturdy loafers or a pair of brogues. Complete winter perfection!

The best thing about these gloves are they don't break the bank! These beauties are from M&S and are only £17.50, every reason to buy them as all four colours they have available. Get them while you can!
