#WantItWednesday (26/08/15)

Well... Summer is OVER I am DEVASTATED. 
So I am looking forward to wrapping up and doing the only thing I can during the chilly, wet and miserable weather. Layering up with style. 

I have been on a hunt. I have been looking for shirts, tops, skirts and trousers that lend themselves to be worn under or on top of hundreds of different warming others. 

The chicest way to layer, in my opinion is to layer, using variants of the same colour. 

I have always said I wear a 'uniform' and that uniform consists of five colours, beige, white, black & navy. It also helps that these beautiful colours lend themselves quite well to a layered wardrobe. 

I have found the perfect item to begin your layering for the season and can you believe it? It's under £20! 
From New Look
This absolute steal from New Look(link) is amazing, easy to wear and the perfect base to start adding layers to. It even comes in my uniform of shades. (So I'll have two in every colour please!) 

I would pair this with a pair of cigarette trousers (these would go excellently), a pair of plimsolls or über fashionable trainers du jour and a button down (done up all the way) for an easy casual look for work. You could even go nuts; with a button down tunic or shirts dress underneath it too. Pair or with a huge scarf like an old favourite (sadly discontinued) on an extra blustery day, (like today) or a super cute, super yellow raincoat


Look at the ways to wear below:

See not the sun has gone out. I'm really depressed; so layers and comfort are the only things that could save me; that and spending countless hours shopping. 

Until Next Week!

Via Cos


So Summer is more or less over (sob) so I have been searching high and low for transition pieces that can take me through to the bleak winter. 

I have been looking for something in one of my favourite colours, Navy and I have found this beauty and a half from one of my favourite shops, Cos.

This glorious shirt is the sartorial mullet of tops; business in the front...Party at the back. 

This is perfect for a work outfit or relaxing in a pair of baggy boyfriend jeans.

#WantItWednesday (12/08/205)

From Cos

So the weather has been flipping out the last couple of days.
It's been humid and cloudy, sunny and windy and because of it, I am taking hours to get ready.
I am just not sure what the day will bring. 
So I have been looking for a dress that is suitable for all seasons, is easy to wear and can be dressed up easily. I have found it in this chic simple beauty from Cos.

I love this dress. The would look amazing with a pair of converse as it would with a pair of chic glitzy sandals.

This is perfect for the changeable weather, it's a heavy duty jersey; perfect for when the wind & rain picks up, The Oversized shape is perfect for those lighter, brighter days and nights.


This dress also fits in seamlessly with my wardrobe of grey, black & navy blue so could easily be carried into the Autumn months because I think I will be wearing this for a long time to come.

Until Next week!

#WantItWednesday (05/08/16)

I have been on a bit of a home decor vibe the last couple of weeks. 
I have been painting, decorating and DIYing like a trouper and I love it! I have been dreaming about bookshelves and furniture and I am not sorry about it!

From Made.com
I am have been in need of lighting for ages. My flat is lovely (now after weeks of decoration) but I am sick of having the ceiling light on all the time... And then I found this.

I am complete and totally in love with this Copper lamp from Made.com. It is fun, cool and makes me feel like I am not in my flat in deepest darkest East London; but in an huge, spacious loft in the middle of Copenhagen.

This looks great modern furniture (aka IKEA, let's not pretend) and it's really, good value for it's design. I have decided that this beauty will be perfect next to my enormous floor mirror. Perfect for those #OOTD Instagram shots I should be taking.

Copper is one of my metals of the moment. I have a lot of accents in it throughout my home. To be honest, I want to gilt my flat in it.


I have searched high and low for the best pieces for the home. Have a look at my favourite pieces here:
From L-R: Oliver Bonas, Tom Dixon, Ikea
So as you can see, it's taking over my life.
I am off to buy more copper.

Until Next Week!
