In the past I have found velvet to be too tricky to pull off. Fast forward a few years and I am once again crushing on velvet, but this time I know exactly what styles, colours I like and what works. I have noticed that there are lots of different styles of velvet dresses, tops …

Afternoon Tea & A New Outfit
Fashion is one of my favourite things, but I do love a spot of afternoon tea as well. Yesterday I attended afternoon tea at The Ritz in London and it did not disappoint. Afternoon tea is just something so nice to do with loved ones. It's a combination of two great British things, tea and …
Skirt and Sweater Combo
Wearing a sweater over a skirt is perfect for days sat at your desk or for a casual off duty look. It's versatile. I personally think this take on the sweater and skirt pairing is giving my style a revamp to storm through winter. I decided to wear my Topshop striped fringed jumper over a simple …
Graphic Black and White
Monochrome is not to be underestimated. It can often be one of the simplest and most stylish looks to pull off during autumn/winter. I bought this Zara checked pinafore with two silver parallel zips during a winter shopping spree two years ago. To keep warm and to make sure the look still reflected a sharp …
Be A Cat Lady
Can you imagine my excitement when I saw the Dolce and Gabbana spread in my Vogue magazine that showed cat print making a stance for autumn/winter fashion?! I am not a crazy cat lady ( yet) but I do love cats, ( hey, I am surprised my own Cat - Oscar doesn't often feature on …
Dark Floral Layers
Lately I've been deciding on what I should keep for next summer. I know, it's a long time away but I like to get rid of anything that no longer serves a purpose for me. I was very undecided on this Urban Outfitters dark floral cami dress. I love the dress style …
It’s Cold Outside
When I opened my curtains yesterday my heart sunk a little as rain greeted me, gently reminding me that winter is definitely on it's way. This meant that there was no point straightening my hair, I just needed to scrape my hair up, snuggle up in my sheepskin jacket from H&M and get things done. I …
Autumnal Colour Scheme
Halloween may be over but now is still the time to embrace pumpkin tones, rusty reds, burnt oranges and mulberry tones of purple as we head into even darker days . These darker days need to be filled with earthy coloured clothes to feel that step closer to warmth as well as fitting in with …
Heavy Metal and Military
I always try to adopt styles that ooze high fashion. I've always found that power statement pieces help me to be in the right frame of mind. Whilst shopping in H&M in San Francisco I came across this khaki green military skirt with gold buttons running along both sides. I just knew this would be one of the …
373 Days and Counting
It's been 373 days since I officially started my blog and what a year it has been. I finally decided to bite the bullet and start my blog. I'm so glad I did, GOODBYE fear of judgement. Within the last year I have met many people who either support what I do or just seem to …
