My internship at Oh My Love clothing ♡

As some of you may know, the reason why I was absent from my blog from a while at the beginning of this month is because I was interning at Oh My Love. They're a company I've loved for years, so to be able to work behind the scenes with them for a few weeks was a pleasure and I loved my time there!


The building itself is decorated so lovely! The sign and flowers when you first walk in made me happy every day and the desks are each personalised by each person including barbie dolls, pink sticky notes and heart shaped cup holders. I worked in the Web & PR section so spent most of my time at a desk working on Photoshop and behind the scenes on the website.


My internship actually started on the first day of December so this picture described how I was feeling perfectly. It was such a nice ending to the year after having graduated this Summer and working at a non-fashion related job for a few months too. One job I helped out doing was cutting up the 10,000 tags for the clothes to be sold at The Clothes Show Live!


 The Christmas tree went up whilst I was there and it was the sassiest Christmas tree I'd ever seen! Covered in sequined baubles, cat masks and barbie dolls! It was also the 'wear a Christmas jumper to work' Friday whilst I was there which was fun to have a workplace full of people wearing bright red glitzy jumpers and tinsel :)


 When you place an order, you often find a sassy sticker comes in your package. I personally love this one, clothes before bros forever! The photography studio room was absolutely gorgeous too, covered with inspirational photographs and a whole wall dedicated to accessories!


 Occasionally I got to help out with photoshoots shooting the new stock which was fun. There is some seriously gorgeous new pieces coming onto the website soon so keep your eyes peeled for them. I have a mega long wishlist of them all now! :)


I managed to finally get my hands on this velvet skater dress with a cut-out back and embellished neck after seeing it multiple times and drooling over it whilst working on the website! I wore it to my boyfriend's family Christmas the other day and it is just as nice in person as it looks online! I had such a fun few weeks and everyone who works there is so nice, I was definitely sad to be leaving!


I thought I'd make a little collage of my favourite pieces which are currenly on the website so you can grab yourself some! The first dress is the one I'm wearing in the above picture and it's just gone into sale so get it while you can, it's the perfect Christmas dress! :) The velvet kimono is next on my grab list, it's such nice colours and will be lovely in both Summer and Winter. The floral crop top is available as a two-piece and I have it as a playsuit which is gorgeous!


These fur jackets are to die for! Oh My Love have also just created little fur clutch bags in the same material so go check them out, I'm lusting over the light pink one! These two black dresses are also gorgeous, perfect as your Christmas LBD! I love how unique and intricately detailed the clothing is as Oh My Love and I've purchased many things from them over the years  :)

Wednesday Wishlist #12 - Oh My Love clothing! :)

I've been on the lookout for the perfect Christmas/New Years Eve dress for a little while now and it's turning out to be a much harder search than I first thought! I'm just not really sure what I'm after to be honest though! Do I want something sparkly or something simplistic? Do I want something lacy, or sheer, or velvet?! Anyways, during my dress hunt, I have come across some gorgeous pieces on Oh My Love, and not even just for Christmas and New Years, but for all year around. All of the items I've picked are either black or monochrome, but you literally can't go wrong with black, and the little details on each garment are so nice! I'm also going blonde again this Monday (yay it's been years!) and I love the way blonde hair looks with black clothing and red lipstick :)

How gorgeous is this dress?! It has a really 'For Love & Lemons' vibe to it, and I love how it looks styled with an oversized floppy hat. Like most of these garments, it could cater to both Summer and Winter. In Winter it would look lovely with a fur gilet and tights!

This two-piece is so simplistic and lovely! They would look great as separate pieces too with a coloured top or skirt instead, but I love the look of them as a pair. The top would look nice tucked into the skirt with a little concho belt!

I love the triangular cut out in this maxi dress. I think that it has been placed in a really flattering place, as some cut-out dresses can look a bit much. This dress looks a bit chilly for Winter, but with some black tights and a fur coat you might be able to get away with it!? I'm tempted to order it in advance for Summer though, as it would look so nice with layered up necklaces and beach hair. I have a brown feather patterned version of this dress from Oh My Love last Summer and it is so lovely on!

Everyone needs a few simplistic smock dresses to chuck on for a day at uni with a nice big cardigan and a few necklaces. I'm sick of buying cheap dresses and them falling apart or shrinking after a few washes, so I think I'm gonna treat myself to this one. It doesn't break the bank but would be of a high enough quality to not need to be replaced! I love the curved seam line too :)

I think that if kimonos are layered up enough they can be worn in the Winter without being freezing. I love the print of this black and white floral kimono, and it would look so nice with a long sleeved polo neck and skirt! 

This is probably my favourite item out of this wishlist. The simplistic lace insert detailing down the middle front of the dress is so pretty and I love the lace hem too. I'm very tempted to order this as my New Years Eve dress! :)

I can't seem to go a wishlist nowadays without adding in a pair of black chunky heeled boots. I know I need to invest in a pair eventually, but finding the perfect pair is had because there are so many lovely ones out at the moment! I love the heavy tread sole on these and they could be worn all year round :)
