Poolslides
Wednesday, 30 April 2014
Poolslides are everywhere this season, and there are none better than these ones from Whistles. Style them with a midi skirt and a slogan sweatshirt.

Take me away
Friday, 18 April 2014
Easter is here already and I wish I was going on a well deserved break somewhere hot and humid, but alas I am stuck in the somewhat sunny capital for the long weekend. Which isn't a bad thing as I have one of my best friend's birthdays to attend and a whole lot of shopping to do!
However if I was setting sail for sunnier climates this would be my outfit of choice. The Topshop oversized weekend bag is my new go to for mini adventures. Slogan t-shirts are always a winner and this etre cecile is witty, funny and on trend, love it. Styled to give the monochrome some pop with summer yellows and the signature slip ons from MSGM.

Paper Mache Tiger Press Day
Saturday, 12 April 2014
I have been pretty busy with press days these past couple of weeks, and have been producing no end of write ups!
This week I popped to Shoreditch to meet the lovely people at Paper Mache Tiger, to drink some peppermint tea and fawn over the Etre Cecile collection - a Paper Thin favourite - and to find out about some amazing labels I can't wait to share with you all.
Etre Cecile didn't fail to impress, but then I am a sucker for a slogan and a great print, so this was always going to work for me. A/W 14 has an array of amazing prints, although the stand out has to be the arrow print below. Neoprene featured heavily - midi skirts, mini skirts, sweatshirts. Clear staples for fall, and the label showcasing 'a fresh balance between our known-and-loved street factor, pepped up with an elegant twist'. But of course the street factor was still there and as tongue in cheek as ever. Slogans such as 'je parle francais' and 'le Bombe' are sure to adorn the chests of many bloggers this autumn, and with the added excitement of teaming up with Executive Editor of Harper’s BAZAAR USA, Laura Brown to produce 'Slogans such as ‘ON Y VA’ and ‘CHARGE!’ printed on the backdrops of Metropolitan France' the casually cool label just got a little bit cooler.
Next was the amazing S/S 14 swimwear collection by Beth Richards, having just finished writing a piece on this I can safely say that I want the whole range! It is uber chic, functional and the introduction of mint green and tomato red to the standard monochrome palette, means the mix and match label is more versatile than ever.
The stand out piece was the 'Grace' swimsuit - I am in L.O.V.E. (see below)
Oh and the lookbook is stunning!
Francis Leon was a new find, although they are on Collection 15 and started in 2010 so I am way behind on this one! I thought the collection was exquisite, their signature panelled leather jackets have an amazing level of detail, and A/W 14 sees 'double-faced suede and grey, as well as navy sportsmesh' added to the staple pieces. They are unreal.
Next season also sees an introduction of denim, and I already have my eye firmly fixed on the pair below - the boyfriend fit, the dipped dye, the leather/denim mix - denim luxury at its best.
Zan Zan is the final label I got to view this week They create their own acetates, so each style is completely unique to the brand, and each pair of sunglasses retails at the same price, so there is no need to compromise on style to fit inside your budget!
The aesthetic of the brand is beautiful, and I can't stress enough the level of quality.
For S/S 14 their 'Avida Dollars' are the perfect pair, with a stained glass feel to them, they have sold out at the moment on Farfetch and for good reason. However having seen what is to come, I am holding out! The new collection see more pastel colour choices, with a pop art feel to them. The styles are modern, inventive and original - what more could a girl want?

New finds
Saturday, 22 March 2014
As a blogger and a writer I am always on the look out for new labels, that I can fall in love with and showcase on my blog. I tend to read all the major magazines looking for new labels that work with my aesthetic and inspire me.
This etre cecile sweatshirt is a recent find and I am in love with this label. Simple, clean and cool. It works perfectly with these faux leather shorts from Finders Keepers. I came across this brand whilst going through Red magazine this month, and it is sure to make another appearance on the blog soon!
My most recent find came up as a who to follow on twitter, and I have to admit twitter was scarily accurate regarding my taste in jewellery. This ring is by Jessie Harris, I love the simplicity and rawness of her pieces, they are just beautiful.
Styled her with an Acne shirt (my go to label for wardrobe staples that I will wear season after season), great Sam Edelman pumps and some cute glasses from Zara.
