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.

sunset.

A treasured day off spent in Cartmel in the Lake District enjoying the sunset en route to an open fire and glass of mulled wine.... simple pleasures. 
I took the opportunity to wear my new bronze mirror lense glasses from zara- I am in love.

(wearing- Topshop fur, H&m bow coat, AA disco pants, copper mirrored lenses- Zara)

Full outfit on the way tomorrow.
Enjoy your weekend!

in uniform.

My favourite dress. Reminding me of a grown up school uniform in the best posible way, especially when paired with brogues and satchel like Mulberry Edie. I love the way the top detaches and becomes a 3 in 1 dress- or if the lace top is worn backwards and unbuttoned like a jacket- 4 in 1?.. Currently crushing on multi functional clothes..

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)

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!

take a peak.

Beautiful scalloped edging and a new purchase. Full outfit on the way tomorrow. Katie.x 

monochrome.

Feeling a little basic in this monochrome ensemble after the colour and pattern overload from NYFW yesterday.....
( wearing: blouse- Malene Birger, matt black wetlook jeans- The Kooples. 
wedges- Zara, bag: Christopher Kane for Topshop)

Gazing out at a clear blue skies, bright sunshine and a beautiful sea right about now on holiday- shts taken before i went away. Katie.x 

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.

in silhouette.

Preview of outfit post coming right up. Polka dots, leopard and burgundy in equal amounts. 

(Apologies for the major lack of blog posts.....working and playing non stop lately.. this week all should be back to the usual sunday, monday, wednesday friday postings!)

Would love to hear about your weekends and any adventures?

navy blue & green.

 

 

I cant help but turn my thoughts far far too soon to the amazing colour palette heading our way this winter. I adore navy blue, green and burgundy in equal amounts, classic and sophisticated.... yet much more appealing and kinder against winter skin than black.    

( although I admit finding a stunning black winter coat is still somewhere in my mind )

preview.

 Just a quick preview of the outfit post on its way tomorrow!

Hope you are having a fun weekend.

skulls on my toes.

A much needed new pair of flats, complete with miniature gunmetal skull heads, suede and patent... I love the contrast of the skulls against such a delicate shoe- they are the perfect pair to throw on in the day, or dress down a dress in the evening.
