Ahh yellow. What a cheerful colour! Here a few bits I’ve bought recently. I was feeling like my wardrobe needed and injection of colour!  This lovely jumper is from French Connection’s new collection. I love the ribbed detail, it’s great layered with a plain white shirt, and light enough to wear in the spring!The platform heels are a steal from Topshop’s January Sale, down to £10 from £56… will be rocking these when the weather warms up a little, or maybe on a super brave day this winter! Ha!I also picked up some makeup from MAC, a new pink lippy… Read More »

I’m sat here editing some footage for my YouTube Channel, and I thought, hey I need to check in with you guys! How are you all? So, where do I even begin? It’s been a whirlwind of ups and downs this January (January Blues?). I’m currently riding the up wave! So yay! Lol!I’m working on some amazing content for my channel (and blog), been in and out of meetings and studios since mid-week last week and all I can say is I’m super excited to share some amazingness with you guys very soon.

H&M Sweater, Leggings & Rings // ZARA Boots & Bag // RIVER ISLAND Earrings Not too long ago, I featured a sweater from H&M, and I thought I had found my all time favourite sweater… until this one! And this was only £14.99! I have worn this numerous times since the day I bought it! I just love how cosy it is. So perfect for winter!  Today I paired it with some super comfy leggings and over-the-knee boots for a casual but chic look! I also had on a bodysuit underneath to keep warm, and I promise I had on… Read More »

“We are afraid to change because we think that, after so much effort and sacrifice, we know our present world. And even though that world might not be the best of worlds, and even though we may not be entirely satisfied with it, at least it won’t give us any nasty surprises…” ~ Quote by Paulo Coehlo Change can be scary, but I’ve come to believe that change, when the time is right, is good. I’ve been pondering about rebranding my blog for the longest time, and I’ve finally began to take the steps towards it (Leading on from my… Read More »

More “Doing”

FASHION, OUTFITS
November 30 2013

H&M Coat // ZARA Belt, Leggings, Court Shoes, Bag // MAC Media Lipstick When you make up your mind to do something, no matter how hard it may seem at first, just “doing” the thing, rather than spending ages “thinking of doing” the thing, is what gets results.  I’m very proud of this post, as I took the photos myself…with a tripod and remote, and with people watching (I even struck up a conversation with a sweet elderly lady who really wanted to know what I was getting up to!).  It’s been a long time since I took the initiative… Read More »

November 14 2013

Hello my loves! So last night I uploaded a Room Tour Video, and I thought to blog about it too! I’m also practising some new photo techniques I’ve recently learnt, and I’m thinking of doing a post to share my equipment and a few tips on blog photography soon! 🙂 Super excited to finally share with you my little bubble, that I’m so in love with! I spend a lot of time in here, working, blogging, filming, sleeping etc (you get the idea! lol!), so it’s only natural that I inject every bit of my personality and style into it!… Read More »

Hey there lovelies! Hope you’ve had a good weekend!I have! My sister and I went partying and just chilled out for the rest of the weekend! And ate lots, ofcourse! I’m off on holiday this week with my mum, so I’ve been trying to get quite a few bits done here and there! I’m actually planning on vlogging and blogging my adventures (this time around!), so you can look forward to that too! Where am I going you ask? Clue: Gold Coast! 😉 I still need to make a last dash to the shops and pick up some bits and… Read More »

Sweater Weather

September 30 2013

H&M Sweater | Dorothy Perkins Jeans | ZARA Heels & Purse | RIVER ISLAND Earrings & Watch | H&M Rings & Bangles | Makeup I love sweaters (or jumpers for my UK folk!), and now as the weather is getting cooler, they’re just easy to throw on! I do find that not all sit well on my figure though and tend to make me look box-y (if that’s a word), but this one is just perfect! I especially love the asymmetrical detail, short in the front, long in the back! I might be heading back to H&M to get some… Read More »

New Shoes ❤

September 27 2013

Such a wonderful feeling to finally own these beautiful shoes that have been on the very top of my wishlist for so long! Christian Louboutin Nude Pigalle 120mm (The 100mm are still in stock!) It’s so my style. Nude and simple. I believe this is the beginning (or a continuing, as the first day I saw them on Net-A-Porter was some time ago) a lifelong romance! How are you all? I’ve photographed a few outfits in the past few weeks that haven’t turned out as nicely as I like, and being the perfectionist I am when it comes to my… Read More »
