You might be a little quizzical over how casual my outfit is here; I hardly wear jeans these days, and more or less live in the shirt collection I own! But sometimes, we all need something a little looser on top – it is Easter after all! – and wearing tights day in and [...]

On Sunday I finally got to visit the Brighton Vintage Fair at the Corn Exchange, a Sunday event I’d somehow managed never to be in Brighton for until now! It isn’t a weekly occurrence, so it feels all the more special (and impulsive, if you have your eye on a few things!) than the [...] Okay, so I’m not actually walking with swans, but it kindof makes sense when I’m wearing swan print shorts and walking around… These shorts were a very lovely gift from Carrie, and I can see myself teaming them with a white shirt and bare legs when the weather gets warmer. For now though, they’ll [...] I think I’ve found my NFT (new favourite thing…is that a thing?) in this black pinafore jumpsuit from Topshop! After seeing a nice pair of dungarees and a wool-y jumpsuit on the website, I was waiting, and hoping, for something a little more fitted with a nicer front and a cross back. And [...] I know that Christmas isn’t quite over yet- it’s turkey sandwich round two for me after this – but I can’t help but think ahead to New Years’ Eve. I’m staying in this year, but I still plan to ‘dress up’, because that never requires an excuse!

And having the figure of a plain chocolate bar/celery stick/lamppost/ruler etcetc means I need a little swishy bottom to give me some shape! So [...] Top – American Apparel, Shorts – Topshop, Boots – Miista, Bag – Vintage What started off as a pretty matchy-matchy looking ensemble with the aim of showing you just how matchy – from black boots to red lips – ended up with me looking like the grim reaper of rain [...] Skirt – American Apparel (vintage), Scalloped Shirt – ASOS, Tights – ASOS, Bag & Shoes – Vintage Whenever I buy something vintage, it never quite feels “brand new” because just the idea of a pre-worn item can sometimes make something feel less special. But I think the plus side always trumps; [...] I’m quite excited about the coming autumn and winter months, mainly because I think dressing for autumn is my favourite, there’s a lot more you can play around with from different textures to all sorts of layering. With that in mind, I thought I’d take a look back at some AW12 catwalks that I liked, [...] |
