outfit overload.

A recap of a selection of 2011 looks incorporating brights and neutrals... 

For spring summer 2012 Im already looking to incorporate copious amounts of white lace, cutwork detailing, simple silhouettes and dreamy pastel shades.

it all points to silver.

There was something so idyllic about the deserted beach, glistening sea and rippled sand combined with the rusty structure of the old pier. Spending almost 24/7 city living makes me crave and appreciate these moments even more if thats even possible.

(Wearing- h&m jumper, The Kooples jeans, AA shirt, Asos metal collar tips, Kate Moss x Rimmel Lipstick)

snap x fashion week.

Looking through street fashion photography on street fsn, style.com- Tommy Ton, Facehunter, and Nobody Knows Marc... You can imagine my suprise to find a bag bought as a gift from Thailand snapped on someone at New York fashion week?! Amazed.

Pink and pattern isn't usually my thing but somehow bright sunlight makes every colour look sensational ( Photos taken recently on holiday in Lanzarote)

a macaroon amaze.

A treasured day off = my new Asos 'Amaze' shoes arrived... 

way ahead of schedule and I am amazed. 

Vaguely reminiscent of the Alexander Wang Constance boots mixed up with Karl Lagerfeld's Chanel vision in 2010 with the whole perspex and iceberg ensemble, that will remain forever embedded in my memory. 

Now for my first attempt at making the French fancy- macaroons. I now have Lorraine Pascale's recipe, along with a specialist book and crossed fingers.

 If they are successful I promise photos to follow.

green on repeat.

I seem to be stuck on repeat with these green jeans....they have turned into a 'go to' wardrobe item for me  .. I am craving some time off from work to immerse myself in all the fashion shows and fashion weeks blogs and photographs, magazines and books I dont have enough hours in the day for right now.

Does anyone else feel this way?

williamson park.

This weekend was the first chance of photos since returning from a holiday on Thursday morning. I spent the day at a beautiful park, butterfly house that was incredible, and visiting a true gem of an antiques centre.

 I had been a little hesitant about visiting Lanzarote , but the hotel was pure paradise, and far exceeded my preconceptions. Balinese day beds complete with fresh linen sheets, mid morning fruit kebabs, afternoon tea and beautiful weather almost the whole time!

polka. print.

navy blue polka dot blouse. new in and already a 'go-to' in the wardrobe. I love the navy and burgundy mix, and the semi sheer fabric making it the perfect day or night option.

all white.

Wishing today was as beautiful as yesterday and I could spend my day off in this dress.

I'm going to visit a few interior places before lunch, and head to an amazing ice cream parlour later- cant wait.

I would love you to stay updated over on Bloglovin'

right now.

Right now ....It looks something like this as I am attempting to pack 

and seem to be drowning in clothes and bikinis.

 I usually live in dresses while away as it proves the easier throw on option... 

this time i'm going to mix it up and take some shorts and shirts and alternatives for the evening.. while attempting to echo a little touch of 
Joanna Hillman who always gets it's spot on.

flamingo pink.

The first time I have the urge to share some of my make up buys with you. 

Bobbi Browns blusher in peony- the perfect go to colour for a fresh faced look, 

and lipstick in pink.. ( one of her original colours and the perfect everyday shade)

..alongside one of my favourite books- Birds by Katrina Cook.

Hope your week is going well? I made a little sale purchase today I will show soon!
