heatwave happy

 

Top: H&M (also tempted by this), Skirt: Zara (old), Heels: Zara (old), Belt: Accessorize  

I meant to make a 'quick dash' to the Mango on Regent Street yesterday, only the route I chose took me straight through Oxford Street and it's gauntlet of shops. But, I did power-walk... only straight in to H&M followed by Topshop! This amazing peplum top from H&M was one of the gorgeous finds that ambushed me that day. I really love the textured fabric and the petal style peplum hem. And hey, even if I did stray from my mission I did make it to Mango eventually just with a few extra shopping bags! I'm not sure why this feels like an achievement but I'm not going to question it... Hope you're all enjoying the mini heat wave! xx

Summer Stripes

Skirt: French Connection (old), Top: Zara (old), Flip flops: Havaianas (old) Similar here,

Belt: Accessorize (old)

 

Literally blinded by the sunshine as you can clearly see in this post! This is one of my favourite summer outfits as I love colour blocking. But the real reason I dragged Vanessa out the office to take photos for my blog was to photograph my beloved Havaianas! If I had my way I'd wear them all year round even in winter if I could. They're ultra comfy and if it does rain (which it usually does), your feet dry super quick! Bonus! Much better than moping around in damp ballet pumps at any rate... xx

Hi everyone! In truth, I've been a bit of a style free zone the last couple of weeks living in some pretty un-blog-worthy attire...  normal service will resume as soon as possible, but in the meantime, here is what I wore to my work party held at the V&A last month. I bought this kimono inspired dress on a Personal Shopping experience at Topshop a few years back and except for a night at the Opera it's been living in a suit storage bag in my wardrobe just waiting for another occasion as fancy as it! It's pure silk... it's got birds on it and... it goes with my earrings... Result! xx
