#WantItWednesday (15/07/15)

From M&S

So it has been blissfully warm the last couple of weeks and I love it! The only problem is I am having to peel myself out of my uniform of jeans, button downs and jumpers because, frankly, I look ridiculous.

So I find myself uttering the same expression, morning, after morning, like a loon. 'I have nothing to wear' So I have been looking in unlikely places to find dresses that I like and aren't ridiculous.

From Monki

I have been searching high and low for a lovely relaxed, summer skirt and I think I have found it in this gorgeous skirt from Monki. 

This lightweight, striped denim skirt is perfect for the longer evenings spent outside. This works well with an oversized button down or a Tshirt, even one of my favourite Fisherman Jumpers from American Apparel for when the nights draw in. 

I think my summer prayers have been answered with this little beauty. This is fun, relaxed and delightfully vintage for the summer. 

High Street Heroes: April

The sun is out! HOORAY!!

What better way to celebrate than looking at my pick of the early summer finds this month on the high street. I must confess (it's not really a confession) I have been looking forward to the warmer weather for months and months! I am so excited. No more thick woolly scarves, heavy coats and a frozen fingers... I CANNOT WAIT!

I love this skirt from Urban Outfitters. It's light, airy and perfect for spring. I would pair this with an oversized t-shirt (if your are feeling brave try a bright pattern or a contrasting stripe), bare legs and a pair of well loved converse.

The vertical stripe is flattering on all shapes and sizes and perfect to carry you through to summer. This would even look amazing on your holiday, paired with a kimono and your bikini or swimsuit.

 A wonderfully easy and casual outfit for spring... where is the nearest park? I am ready for a picnic in the sun!

Get them before I snag the lot!

I love a full skirt, especially in the summer. There is something very Roman Holiday about it. The days feel a bit more glamorous when you are out and about, hopping on and off the tube with a full swooshy skirt. It makes your morning commute a little more exciting than it really is.

Peter Jensen Stripe Sweatshirt

I am self confessed jumper lover. They are warm, comforting and can be worn with EVERYTHING. I am also a massive fan of stripes. All of my jumper dreams have been realised in this piece of sartorial perfection from Peter Jensen. I love this. I love this like, a whole lot. 

This is a jumper that could easily be dressed up with a structured pencil skirt and heels, I would wear this a lovely pair of pale grey cigarette pants and a casual pair of plimsolls (who can probably guess where from).

This is wonderfully oversized and comfortable, perfect for a relaxed afternoon, maybe for having a relaxed tea party with friends?


here are a few of my favourite options to pair with this gorgeous jumper, as if you needed another excuse to head to the shops for yourself! (being philanthropic at this time of year is so stressful!)

So there you have it... all looks can be found here. Go on... you deserve it!

#WantItWednesday (02/07/14)

We are now certainly in the throws of summer. I often find I want to spend ALL my time outside often with either a cocktail or a spritzer in hand. Wanting to be outside all the time obviously interferes with my job, so I have been on the hunt for the perfect outfit to reduce the amount of time spent indoors (The office) and maximise the time spent outside (The Beer Garden)

This Skirt from ASOS ticks all the boxes. It is light, fun and can be serious and flirty all at once. Everything you would need in a day to night outfit. I am of course a massive fan of anything striped and this is no exception. I also love anything that could have multiple wears as I am a very lazy dresser.
This Again ticks all the boxes!
I just cannot get enough!

You know what the best part is? IT'S IN THE ASOS SALE! So there is now absolutely no reason why you shouldn't own the perfect meeting - drinks - drinks - dancing outfit. Get it quick, before they all disappear!!
