It’s that time of year when I’m actually excited about knitwear. I have gone through my Winter wardrobe, debobbled my jumpers and mentally made a note of what goes with what and any new bits/replacements I might want this season. Stripes are big this season (when are they not though?) and last year I practically … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit ’21
Knitwear is an absolute essential in my wardrobe as I feel the cold so. I am still a terrible jumper hoarder and have failed to get them all out of storage to see what I have, which is always a mistake. When buying knitwear I do tend to just buy what I love, when really … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit 2020
I expect most people’s buying habits have changed somewhat this year. Even during lockdown, when living in leggings I would find myself reaching for a good pair of earrings to lift my spirits and instead of buying clothes I found myself seeking out new jewellery and beauty products. Gold hoops seem to have become more … Continue reading Jewellery Update 2020
Thankfully we have had some amazing weather here in the U.K. already. Being a keen traveler though is tough at the moment. We’ve already had to cancel our Easter holiday and are now wondering if we’ll have our Summer holiday. I for one, am not used to spending so much time at home. There are … Continue reading Destination: home
If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you may know that I’ve really been trying to buy less on the fashion-front and if I’m honest, it goes in fits and starts. I haven’t bought any high fashion, ‘trend-led’ items for a year or so which is great, as the things I am buying … Continue reading Early Summer Fashion Picks
Seeing as we’re all stuck inside at the moment it’s very easy just to slob-out and give-up making an effort, but we sometimes forget the transformative nature of what we wear to reflect our mood and this is so important at the moment. It doesn’t mean we have to compromise on comfort, which is also … Continue reading Lockdown Loungewear
Ok, so in all honesty I’m not sure my husband would agree to the above title as let’s face it; the world has gone to crap, so it’s ok to be emotional once in a while. One minute I’m perfectly happy and the next I feel like a caged, frightened animal. It’s definitely made me … Continue reading How I’m Keeping Sane
Eeek, I can't believe it's that time of year already. I am desperately trying to finish what seems like never-ending Christmas shopping and I guess for some lucky people the Net-a-Porter sale could be a good opportunity to buy some gifts; either for your other half, a great friend, family member or yourself. Every year … Continue reading The Net-a-Porter Sale
Well there's no denying it's officially sweater weather (in the U.K. anyway) and after getting all of my heavier knits out of storage and reviving those that I could, (with the de-bobbler) I have ended up buying a few new pieces. Chunky knits and cardi-coats are my go-to at this time of year. Here are … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit ’19
I've found myself investing in more practical items recently - pieces that don't get my heart racing when I buy them but I know are going to be a pleasure to wear and that will have greater longevity in my wardrobe. A few things I've bought are upgrades/replacements of what I already have. For example, … Continue reading Summer Staples
