the mother of all woodies


Clogs by Deena & Ozzy @ Urban Outfitters
Are these not worth every stumble/potential sprained ankle? haha

Cherry leather - THE most amazing colour for a leather jacket, right? Bought it when I worked at Miss Selfridge and it's been a staple ever since. I'm really loving vertical stripes on clothing at the moment, so when I saw these in River Island I had to have them! I kept the outfit simple because I wanted the leggings to do all the work... oh and the clear heels? well, they need no introduction... xx

Topshop belted drape top, Miss Selfridge heels, leggings & bag, H&M hat

I love heels and hats lately, they've become my go-to items. The shoes are perfect, why? Because they're just that.

wide leg



Topshop shirt, Miss Selfridge pants, H&M hat

Never thought I'd be in the mood for wide leg trousers, but I've finally found a pair I'm willing to wear. They lengthen the leg so they're not too body conscious and the button detail gives them extra depth. 

Regards, a happy new wide-leg owner  xxx

Working with MouthLondon magazine







Think I have to high-five myself for managing to write this article on top of three university deadlines, working late nights, reading up to three novels a week, becoming a fashion editor of my university newspaper and sending letters off for editorial work experience... but I did it and here it is!


Big THANK YOU to LondonMouth or selecting me to write an article for the printed magazine and making it possible for me to see my name in print!

nails wraps


Wanted to try these nail wraps as an alternative to varnish. They peeled off half-way through the night so I guess their only benefit over varnish is that they create pretty cool patterns which only a salon could create. Got mine from Claire's for £5 or so.

Wearing: Urban Outfitters velvet jacket, tassel socks, jeans; H&M hat; Topshop shoes; Vintage fur coat


These shoes remind me of the shoes I wore when I was in school. Back then I would have done anything for a heel - now I can't get enough of them. Still breaking them in at the moment, I yearn for the day I can wear them for hours on end with total comfort as the one slightly clips my ankle. But you know what they say, if the shoe fits, it's ugly. 


Will probably be absent from my blog for a few days, the deadlines are following behind me already. xx
