Grunge, meet Gucci Bamboo

<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />When Gucci very kindly asked if I'd like to style up their classic bamboo tote in the online exclusive blue, I of course immediately jumped and said yes. Anything to break my monotonous black bag habit. But when it came down to how exactly to wear the beauty, I was at a bit of a loss as to how to do it justice (aforementioned black bag rut had really stuck).<br /><br /><br /><br /> However, I

Girls in Gant Rugger

<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />As you may of guessed from my Instagram, I am big into boy's clothes right now. Maybe it has something to do with the fact I've recently started co-habiting so I have twice the amount of shirts at my disposable, but there really is nothing better than an oversized, button-up man's shirt to temper the sexiness of a pair of leather trousers or a short short skirt. <br /><br /><br /><br />So when

Day Two at London Fashion Week

<br /><br /><br /><br />So this is what I wore on day 2 of fashion week to see the likes of John Rocha, David Koma and Ashish at Somerset House.  <br /><br /><br /><br />As you can probably tell, I'm a bit obsessed with this All Saints biker skirt and decided to steal one of Jamie's white shirts to tuck underneath it to give it an extra, albeit small, layer of decency. I kind of loved the long cuffs that kept poking out from coat too -

Back on the LFW Train

<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />After a beautiful summer of sunshine, London seems to be having some sort of meltdown right now, and just in the time for the one weekend I can't just hide under the duvet and hibernate (as tempting as it might be).<br /><br /><br /><br />As a result, the first day of London Fashion Week was mainly spent rushing under umbrella to show, to warm, dry coffee shop and back again. I tried to somehow balance the

Inside Space with Yours Truly

So this is a bit of a first for both me and my blog. A video. Of me. Speaking. Three sentences that would normally put a knot of substanstial fear in my stomach, but in the creative, capable hands of Verity and Chloe Pemberton, the whole experience turned out to be million times better and easier than I thought possible. Anyone that manages to make a video of me that doesn't make me want to slam

An Evening in France

Lazy evenings at home from home in France call for very little in terms of packing and no matter what or how much I take, I always end up reaching for those oversized, easy items that require near to no effort.  My old men's denim shirt is one such item and it had a new lease of life this trip when teamed with suitably pjyama-ish Zara shorts and my Birkenstocks that constantly make me wonder what

New Basics

I'm a real shorts and t-shirt person in the summer and when the temperature rises as it did this weekend, I always end up in the good-old basics. My faithful vintage Levi's cut offs (complete with massive ink splat) are never far from reach but a few new updates on the essentials are making them feel brand new again. Namely the perfect white tee (yes really, the hunt is over) from Olive Clothing,

Two Ways

Those of you who follow me on Instagram will have already seen these jeans a fair amount as they're proving something of go-to in this muggy-but-not-quite-sunny weather. So after just a quick mention in my Tulum holiday photos, I thought it was about time I gave them some proper airtime.They came about after a wander into Gap one aimless Sunday in need of a new top for yoga or something equally

Bohemian Like You

The other day, as per usual, I went shopping for one thing, and ended up buying another completely unrelated thing that I just don't need and have several similar versions already. But as soon as I saw this embroidered 70s cheesecloth number, I knew it would be coming home with me.  Perfect for the warm, sunny evenings we've been having of late. Watch / Larsson and JenningsShorts / vintageTop /

A Day in Brighton

Fierce concentration on Time Crisis III Loved these string bags for sale at Bill's on North Street. Morroccan treasure trove in the North Laines With the bank holiday bringing an extra day to play with, we decided to hop on the train to the coast for the day. I've been living in London for four years now and yet I've never ventured down to Brighton before so I figured it was about time I checked

Black & White Mango

Finally got my hands on this Mango top after seeing it online and trying but failing to get it in time for Mexico from in store. I have a bit of thing for embroidery come summer and this is my favourite addition of late.Took these at home a few weeks ago on the last few shots of a roll of film from holiday. Only to discover it was black and white rather than colour.... Didn't really do justice to

Back from Paradise

Apologies for abandoning the blog for the last few weeks but I'm now back with the post-holiday blues after an amazing holiday in Tulum, Mexico, otherwise known as paradise. I think I found my happy place in this little slice of the Yucatan and true to form, I'll be posting a big photo diary from the trip very soon as well as a few hints, tips and highlights we garnered from our time there.

A Short Story

With my Mexico trip just around the corner (1 week and counting), all my attention has turned to shorts, sandals, swimwear and every thing else that would inappropriately summery in London right now. I always wish I was a bit more a dress person, especially on holiday, but I'm slowly coming to realise that as hard as I try, separates always feel a bit more me. Thus shorts are a real staple for me
