delicately wrapped in crochet.

It's official...the UK is experiencing some sort of Summer, and although not every day is bright sunlight for topping up your tan... we have had plenty already! I find myself going bare legged- virtually every day, and adopting a more natural look with light make up. I find this sort of outfit provides a seamless transition from relaxing at home, to popping out and looking presentable with the additions of heels and a bag.
I must start taking time over my hair... seriously all too easy to just whiz up in a bun and off I go....i'm not the best at hairstyles!
Hope you all had lovely weekends!Katie.xx

slouchy silk.

So many beautiful clothes I seem to never get round to sharing with you. Topshop boutique is always the place I find myself heading to when shopping online or instore. This silk dusky shaded number appeared online sometime late April- I had to grab it before it sold straight out... inevitable. I fell in love with the doll collar, slouchy pockets and the draping silk.
Such a simple piece I know will be great paired with chunky knit layers and ribbed thigh high grey socks when autumn comes around. I popped this on for a meal out the other evening and seriously the food deserves a post itself! ( im debating as to whether or not I should put it on or not?!)The shoes are from Office last year... but I hear they have just started a 70% sale so may be worth checking out!

A much needed swim in the sea, complete peace, relaxation, a golden tan, make up free skin and beach hair awaits = bliss. September can't come soon enough....

pimms + sun = fun.

A weekend filled with laughter, great conversation and the most insanely good weather. Celebrating the Birthdays of my brother and dad resulted in the most awesome double whammy of events. BBQ, sunshine, pimms, and talking late into the night with a garden full of candles. The crazy star lights ended up in the apple tree somehow, a few things got broken including a few glasses and a garden chair, but most importantly a great time was had by all!

My dad purchased a brilliant ' Colin the caterpillar ' cake... saving me from baking, and incase you were wondering- the pop rocks, lucky charms etc were a funny prezzie for my brother!
