Silk Lux

Wednesday 10 December 2014

I love silk shirts, they are a staple in my wardrobe and I seriously can't get enough of them. The texture, the classic styling, the prints - I love it all. So if you are looking for the perfect lux gift this Christmas why not sample what the silk shirt is all about.

Bring on the abode

Wednesday 5 November 2014



So Paper Thin has be running now since May 2013, and my love of fashion hasn't faltered one bit. I am, and always will be, a fashion girl.

However as my life has grown up some what I am branching out. Paper Thin is going to cover some super stylish home brands whilst still providing you with all the fashion you can handle.  This has really stemmed from struggling to find cushions I loved on the high street that didn't come in teal or beige, and for anyone that bumped into me during fashion week listening to my woeful tale I have decided to do something about it! After all I can't be the only girl who wants her home to look as good as her wardrobe does.

The print above is from the amazing Katie and the Wolf, and you will not be disappointed with her stunning range of home accessories - go check out her etsy shop here

So get ready as there is a whole lot more to come - bring on the abode and much, much more ...

I love Sundays in London, and today was spent wandering around Spitalfields market drinking warm cider and feeling extremely Autumnal. So I thought I would share with you my perfect a/w city outfit for pottering about the capital.

Autumn is rolling in and that means one thing - hats, woollen hats to be precise. They are a wardrobe staple of mine during the colder months. Besides keeping me warm, they hide a multitude of hair sins hehe.

So here are my top picks and to be honest I think I may need to buy them all!

Paper Thin loves ... Blake LDN

Sunday 28 September 2014

One of the best parts of LFW is getting to wander around the designer showrooms stumbling upon brands that you love. I feel in love with three brands this season and Blake LDN was one of them. They are a stunning contemporary knitwear brand, and whilst no doubt I will be featuring them on the blog over the coming months, I just had to share with you their Redfern sweater in grey. It is a knitwear hug and the perfect addition to your a/w wardrobe.

LFW day four

Monday 15 September 2014

Today I am wearing my favourite Topshop jeans which they no longer do but I am always being asked where they are from, I have two pairs of them I love them so much. 

Styled with this great shirt from Warehouse and my new faux leather jacket from Zara - which has had so many compliments during LFW. 

Trusty Topshop pumps complete the look.

Paper Thin loves... Pamela Costantini

Friday 15 August 2014

I love it when you get to work with great people, and Angela at Paper Mache Tiger is one of those great people who I am lucky enough to work with. Whilst I was on holiday she sent me the look book for Pamela Costantini, and I am in love! So thanks Angela :)

The S/S 15 thorn range is just stunning, made up of a staple sandal, pump and bootie (the fact it is called a bootie made me happy). All three styles are provided in three colour ways - black, bourdeaux and bronze. The stand out for me is the sandal, the ankle chain is just epic and I love it in all of the colour ways although the bronze version might just creep ahead of the pack.

The look book is to literally die for - with hints of foul play, great contrast and high end gloss it is amazing. So enjoy, whilst you lust over Pamela's creations and wait for winter to pass so you can your hands on this serious footwear!

Paper Thin 015

Sunday 10 August 2014

I was lucky enough to work with Beach Cafe before I went on my travels, and they gifted me this beautiful Seafolly bikini - I can't begin to describe how much I love this two piece and they have just bought out a monochrome version in their resort collection!

I have worn this bikini so much on my travels - it has maintained its vibrant colour, as well as its shape, so worth the additional spend, and let's be honest a good fitting bikini is hard to find and this one fits like a glove. I also love the front tie detail, as well as the geometric triangles that end each tie. Stunning.

The photos below are from an amazing day at a small cove in Southern Montenegro near Ulcinj, and it was the best day of my travels!

P.s. please ignore my multiple tan lines my travels were varied and as such I have about 25 different tan lines - 4 on my feet alone hehe.
