sheer frills.



(sheer blouse- all saints, jeans- cheap monday (purchased in stockholm), shoes- Office, pearls- Mallorca, brooch- Vivienne Westwood)

I guess if I had planned to do my hair like this- it would have never worked!
I simply tied my hair in a ponytail, clipped it on top of my head, then looked in the mirror and thought- cute-that looks like a bow, (so on removing the huge monster clip, replacing it with kirby grips, and a bit of looped over hair) - taa daa... this hair bow was born! Somehow I think it adds a bit of 1940's glamour to my outfit? Katie.xxx

a skirt full of flirt.

(shoes-Zara, skirt-Oasis, leather waist belt- River Island, tee- Asos, bag- Corfu)

At the sweet age of 18 I worked all summer long, on a really rubbish wage at All Saints, just to save up enough money for a 2 week vacation. The very Summer I passed up on a beautiful Luella bag in Harvey Nichols, worked virtually everyday with no days off, and honestly lived of fresh air.

I visited Corfu with my boyfriend at the time, and had the most amazing island adventures- courtesey of a quad bike (neither of us had a licence then). We explored hidden beaches, olive groves and tiny villages, were left speechless by the incredible views Paleokastritsa provided, and even stumbled on a cheeky nudist beach. On a trip into Corfu town I picked up this incredible bag in an old leather shop ( along with another special something- I will show you someday)... then struggled to carry it back to our hotel on the quad. It has been such a cherished piece ever since, full of memories from our holiday.

Timeless CLASSIC.

( photos- Tommy Ton Jak & Jil - collage me)

Searching for my next special purchase.....something completely 'timeless' and 'classic', if only I could stretch to the incredible Celine seen above. It would last a lifetime, and I would hope become a family heirloom passed down through generations- could you imagine? Celine, Mulberry and Chanel are top of my wishlist... in that order.... Im not sure whats happening but i'm feeling a little Chanel classic 2.55 overload?
