#TakeTime


A few weeks ago I was invited down to London with Timex to celebrate 40 years of their classic, 'Easy Rider' watch. The event was incredible... Hosted at Beat LDN - an exclusive bar in South London, the venue was super chic & the perfect background for such an epic occasion. Images of guests and watches were projected onto the walls of the venue, cocktails were flowing and the boomerang-photobooth was just non-stop...

There was a whole array of watches on display and even 2 smart chaps customising the leather straps with guests initials. At the end of the night, we were whisked off for a luxurious stay at the super trendy Hoxton Hotel. It was the most fashionable 24 hours I've had in a long time! ;-) I have to say a big thank you to Timex for looking after us and also to Emma from theemasphere for being my blogger buddy for the night! (Give her a follow, her pics are stunning)

I've always been a big supporter of Timex, their watches are such good quality and have luxurious, timeless designs. I sometimes struggle with chunky watches at work as I spend most of my time typing at the computer - there's nothing worse than jewellery that catches on the desk!!. However, the leather strap of the Timex Easy Rider is so comfortable, and the gorgeous tan colour matches with most clothing.

Unfortunately, I had to dash off for a business meeting the morning after the event, so I missed out on brekky (Wahh!) but I did manage to snap some pics later that day with my #OOTD

Timex Easy Rider Watch

You can just see my embossed initials on the strap of the watch - so cute! I absolutely love this as it is the first gift that I have received with my 'new' initials on since getting married :-)

Rock On Ruby Shoot Day


Ahhh my gosh, what a year! 

I'm not gonna lie, I hate it when people start blog posts with 'so sorry I haven't posted in a while' but, this is one of those posts!! :-S My main excuse? Well, I did get married earlier this year so all that planning kind of took up a lot of brain power... But mainly, BIG things have been happening at work and we predict even more mega awesome stuff coming up over the next 12 months.

From launching our new website, to developing some new product ranges and working on some seriously cool collabs, Rock On Ruby has taken on a life of it's own and we're gearing up for another crazy-busy Christmas period (fingers crossed!)

So! I wanted to check in and show you what I've been up to this weekend, mainly working on some awesome street style pics with Gypsy Shrine make up artist and Rainbow Tribe owner, Hina. We spent the morning searching out some cool locations in Manchester with photographer, Jack Gracie - keep an eye put for the pics on our Rock On Ruby site and social channels VERY soon...!!

Outfit of the Day: As I knew we'd be 'pounding the pavements' and possibly getting rained on, I knew that my new Superga trainers would be the perfect footwear for the day. It was the first time that I had worn them, but they were SO comfy and the nude colour made a nice change from my usual white trainers. Red is going to be HUGE this A/W and to be honest, I just love this new design from our Fashion week collection (coming online this week!!)

We finished the day with some well deserved coffee and cake in Takk. And on the way home I past through the Makers Market in the Northern Quarter and bagged these delish cupcakes from Weenie Bakes - just LOOK AT THOSE TOPPINGS!!? WOW.

Outfit: Sweatshirt - Rock On Ruby, Mom Jeans - Topshop, Shirt (just seen) Zara, Trainers - Superga* at Cloggs






Hope you like this look - and a sneak peek into the our shoot day!
