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
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

This season and next (have you seen the Spring/Summer '18 runways?) are all about colour. Obviously being a complete colour enthusiast, this makes me very happy indeed. Particularly at this time of year when everyone tends to reach for their fail-safe uniform of black, dark blue and grey, time after time (hubby take note). Surely Autumn and … Continue reading Autumn Colours
January & February are always my 'down' months, so inevitably a bit of retail therapy comes alongside the vitamin D spray. It's always an exciting time when the first signs of Spring come; in the form of both flowers and clothes-drops. Therefore I've compiled the things I'm longing for with some of the pieces I've already … Continue reading The Love & Lust List
I definitely have a love/hate relationship with knitwear. I love the fact that it keeps me warm and cosy and feels beautifully soft (spot the cashmere addict) but hate that it's difficult to look/feel chic whilst wearing it and living in the UK I pretty much have to wear it all-year-round. I am constantly buying knitwear of … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit (Winter 2016)
