Winter Woollies #1

I love a grey marl tee, I literally lived in them this summer. They just work. But as Autumn is only around the corner I'm on the look out for something a little warmer

Long Zip Back Crew Jumper
Like this pale blue marl knit from Warehouse. I really like the subtle blue hue, it makes a nice change from grey. And the zip back detail gives an otherwise average knit some interest


I'll wear it with everything from skinnies or boyfriend jeans to a trophy trouser or statement skirt

Relaxed Fit Jean from Zara

Printed Trouser from Zara
The sign of a good buy, I have already worn it, to dinner at my parent's to celebrate my sister's birthday

Perspex Necklace from Oasis, Jeans from Oasis, Shoes from Office (old)

Coat Love

Every year I buy a new coat with the promise that it's an investment, a timeless classic that will last me for years. Then come next autumn I'm saying the same thing. Already this year I have been tempted. Twice. Meet my second purchase...

Fluffy Boyfriend Coat from Topshop
I like the long line shape, it gives it a smarter edge, whilst the colour (a dark teal) and fabric (best described as a rough mohair) give it a more casual feel

What's your coat(s) of choice this year?

Falling For Fall

Like it or not Autumn is just around the corner so to make the transition a little easier I took a trip to trusty Zara (I just can't let go of the Spanish vibe just yet!)

Short Woollen Overcoat
Apparently a pink coat is the coat to have this winter, this will certainly brighten up my basics and look great with denim 

Faux Leather Bermuda Short
 I have been looking for a pair of leather shorts but never found the right fit, until now

Basic Pointy Shoes With Ankle Strap

These midi heels are pure perfection to me, they add height while still being practical

Leather Ankle Boots With Buckles
I loved these boots the moment I laid eyes on them, they're going to look great with everything

So Autumn isn't looking so bad now?

Smart Jogger

I bought these while I was still in holiday mode

Clutter Moth Woven Jogger from Topshop
They're a trouser jogger hybrid; made in a light woven fabric with the comfort of an elasticated waist and ankle. Relaxed but smart and perfect teamed with a simple tank and flats for a more laid back look

Oh Oasis

Happy Monday!

The time is just whizzing by so I'm playing post catch up with last weekends antics which consisted of new hair, wedding dress shopping, dinner at Jamie's, tapas (and sangria) lunch and a trip to Westfield where I had a little splurge in Oasis

Vintage Geometric Perspex Necklace
Love a statement necklace and this one will look great with a grey tee, my new boyfriend jeans and orange heels...

Ella Slim Fit Boyfriend Jeans


Leather Court from Zara

I've been trying to find the right boyfriend fit jeans for a while now. Getting the right the balance between supposed slouchy and sloppily shapeless has been tricky. But I think these could just be the answer to my prayers

Indian Summer Dress


Basic Sandal from Zara
I saw this dress in the window and could see that it would be so versatile. In the summer I'll go bare legged with sandals and come autumn/winter I'll pop on some opaques and boots

Stripe Maxi Dress

Carla Sandal from Pieces
This holiday I want to wear a mix of heels and flats in the evenings. I think flats look great with maxi dresses, but I have struggled to find one that isn't too casual or too dressy. I think this one is just right though. Happy days :)

Hope you all had a good weekend? What did you get up to?

Hello Yellow



Matilda Dress from Coast

A pretty dress, very unlike me. But I just love it. Mainly because of the black trim, a small detail but one that makes this dress super easy to style. And the contrast with the yellow jacquard pattern just works. Btw, the yellow is brighter in reality. Also the shape is just perfect. High neck. High hemline, with the structured lantern shape keeping it all very modest

Summer holiday right there
