I feel like I've been cheated of Summer this year. The weather has been all over the place for one thing, frequently giving us what seems like four seasons in a day, and even when it does stick to one, it seems to be going more for dull and grey than bright and balmy. I’ve… Continue reading With the rest of Summer…
I spend a significant portion of my time on my phone. It’s more than I would care to admit, that’s for sure, and it’s also more than I want to. I while away hours a day in scrolling and tapping, but I’ve noticed a worrying theme recently; I am completely failing at keeping in touch… Continue reading It’s easier than ever to keep in touch – so why am I so bad at it?
Isn't it wonderful when you put on an item of clothing and instantly feel great? Those moments have been rather lacking for me recently, as I'm in a sort of limbo right now – we've moved out of one flat and are waiting to move into another, so I’m writing this from my parents' house,… Continue reading The dress that made my day
In case you haven’t noticed, there are a lot of retailers having their summer sales right now. This is great (unless you happen to have bought something at full price very recently which is now a lot cheaper) but I’ve had to ban myself from them because I realised that I turn into some kind… Continue reading Confessions of a girl who lost her mind (and her money) in the summer sales
Since I’ve now been blogging for 3 months or so and am just about in the swing of things (although I don’t know if I will ever get used to the levels of tired involved with doing this around a day job), I thought it was about time I considered what my aims are for… Continue reading My blogging goals (and they aren’t numbers)
When you think of summer essentials, you might think immediately of bikinis, beach cover ups, denim cut offs and flip flops. And you would be right – I definitely want a good version of each of those in my warm-weather wardrobe. However, for summer at home, they don't quite work with my day to day… Continue reading Everyday summer wardrobe essentials
You know sometimes, I get a bit of a fascination with a certain style or trend and then I go on and on about it to you all? (case studies; embroidery, gingham, ruffles). Really sorry to have to tell you, but this is going to be another one of those times, and today I'm all… Continue reading Summer style: more yellow, please
Here we go then; I’m making good on my promise from this post where I had a bit of a whinge about how much it costs to keep up with fashion, and starting a whole Making My Wardrobe Work Harder series (the first one is here if you fancy checking it out). I’m not going to… Continue reading Making my wardrobe work harder: the culotte jumpsuit
Before we get into this can we just take a moment for my maybe excellent but probably terrible fashion-related pun in the title of this post? I couldn’t resist. I’m sorry (but not that sorry). Anyway, moment over, and let’s turn our thoughts to one of the newest additions to my wardrobe, this little Realisation… Continue reading Late to the Realisation Par-ty
Instagram is a wily beast, isn’t she? One minute you’re all pleased with yourself because you’ve posted some killer outfit and avo toast shots and gained 20 followers in a day (I’m a newbie blogger, so scale up where appropriate) and the next you’ve somehow lost 30. I don’t like to moan – lol, I… Continue reading I don’t have an Instagram theme and I bloody love it
