Grey and White Light
Monday, 18 May 2015
Everything looks better under candlelight or at least that is what I think. I am currently addicted to white and grey holders making the light crisp and sharp around the room.
Minimalism is key the candle will do the rest for you.

Relax.
Sunday, 17 May 2015
Sunday mornings are my time to relax each week, it involves a little lie in followed by brunch (in the garden today given the glorious weather in London) and then I do my errands for the day. It is also my time to catch up on the glossies, plan some blogs and generally organise my life for the week ahead.
This normally fills me with inspiration, and today is no different. I came across these amazing Karen Walker sunglasses and knew that I had to pull together an amazing outfit around them (they have also gone straight to the top of my summer wish list!) So enjoy some relaxed summer style.

Say hello to stripes.
Friday, 15 May 2015
I am a big fan of stripes, especially in the summer they look super cute, and give you an instant chicness.
Style with denim, white cotton and oversized sunglasses and you are good to go!

LFW - Orla Kiely
Monday, 23 February 2015
Saturday morning saw me up bright and early for Orla Kiely and it was worth the early start!
I loved it from start to finish - and if I am honest there are not many shows I go to during Fashion Week were I think I would wear everything, but Orla Kiely was one of them.
The library setting was stunning, and super cute - the models did a great job bringing it to life, and I seriously for the first time in my life wanted to work in a library, just one that provided me with an Orla Kiely uniform of course.
The collection. Knitwear was complimented with oversized, scallop collared, white shirts. Mohair aline mini skirts were a favourite as was the stunning outerwear. Colour was blush and lemon, intertwined with monochrome, mustard and emerald green. Shoes were a collaboration with Clarks and the bags were simply, structured perfection.

LFW Day 1 - A/W 15
Friday, 20 February 2015
A 9.30am show on day 1 of LFW means flats and monochrome was the easy option.

Botanica Home
Thursday, 12 February 2015
I love industrial concrete in the home, so it was without a doubt that I was going to love Botanica Home. The Glasgow based Etsy brand ticks all the boxes for me; industrial, geometrical, colourful ... tick, tick, tick.
The candle holders above are amazing, and the plant pots below are on my spring/summer wish list.

Paper Thin Loves ... May
Sunday, 1 February 2015
As some of you may have guessed I have an affinity towards Australian brands, so I was super happy when I came across May on a miserable Saturday afternoon scouring the internet in East London. This brand is just amazing. Their current collection, Happy Hour, has contemporary silhouettes, a great colour palette and the perfect print for S/S 15. I am sold.
So all you have to do now is cheak out their website (which ships internationally) and look out for a whole lot more of May in future posts.

Bean and Bailey
Friday, 23 January 2015
What I found was an amazing collection of pastel ceramics, the bowls are all stunning and the hanging planters are a must have. I also love the fact that everything is under £40!
But don't take my word for it go check them out for yourself, as this American duo are doing some great things.

Paper Thin Loves ... Zanzan
Thursday, 22 January 2015
I was first introduced to Zanzan eyewear during the Paper Mache Tiger press day and I fell in love. The brand is utterly unique, has amazing acetate frames and in their own words have set out ‘to drag sunglasses out of the opticians and onto the catwalk’ - and they have succeeded.
Being worn by the likes of Laura Bailey, Alexa Chung and Olivia Palermo, their devotees read like my perfect style icon list. Add to that they have some amazing January offers, means now is the time to stock up on some serious eyewear before the summer begins.

Fabletics
Wednesday, 21 January 2015
Whilst doing my morning commute across London, I tend to catch up on emails, check on social media and generally get ready for the day. So I thought I would check out the new Fabletics range (having received an amazing offer to get my first outfit for £22 it would be rude not to). The best thing about the site before I had even looked at any sportswear was the amazing quick fit quiz, I answered a series of really simple questions and then this resulted in a set of outfits being chosen for me as my ideal picks (and surprisingly it worked, I loved them all). I really love a site when it is tailored to you as an individual, it was also super useful as my BF is wanting us to go to yoga, and that not being my exercise of choice has meant I had no idea what to purchase and the quick quiz pulled up some amazing yoga outfits with ease. Also let's be honest no one wants to the new girl at a class with no idea what to wear as well as no idea what you are letting yourself in for.
I fell in love with two outfits as above, the amazing Wild (top below), who knew sportswear could look this good and the super practical Ray (bottom below) I know I would wear these pieces all of the time and are a set of great basics from the collection. With the current offer the whole Wild outfit retails at under £40, and the whole Ray outfit under £30 - so what are you waiting for go check out the site and see what outfits it picks out for you.

Jumbled
Wednesday, 14 January 2015
I came across Jumbled whilst browsing Instagram, and I am in love. I love Australian fashion brands, so it makes sense that I would love their homeware brands too.
My house is pretty eclectic and I don't have an obvious colour scheme but there is some sense behind it all. I don't really like everything matchy matchy, and I am all about vibrant colours and contrasting pieces, basically if there was a shop that I feel I could purchase my entire contents of my abode from it would be Jumbled!
Their brand choices are amazing, the colour palette and mix of styles means that no matter what your aesthetic you will find something that works for you and best of all they ship internationally.
Some of my favourite picks are below, but you need to checkout their website in its entirety and that will require a cup of tea and at least an hour!

1. Zula Cushion, Neon Vintage
2. Morrocan Eye Bedhead, Mexsii
3. Malmo Bar Stool: Mint, Middle of Nowhere
4. Resin Pinch Bowl: Pink Silver Glitter, Pirdy
5. Tea Towel: Flamingo, Canvas Home
Paper Thin Loves ... Paige Denim
Tuesday, 13 January 2015
Regular readers will know I am a big denim fan, and one of my all time favourite brands has to be Paige Denim. I love the cut, I love the washes, I love the ethos behind the brand and the fact that they are the only brand with a female founder, I love that whole LA denim history but most of all I love that the jeans make me feel amazing. For me that really is the most imprtant thing about investment denim, sure you can go and buy a pair of jeans for £40 from the high street, but they will never last as long, or be made as well, or make your butt look amazing like high end denim does.
So basically Paige Denim rocks - now go invest in a pair!
