Stepping Out


I'm doing a bit of work experience at a photography studio while i'm home, so I just thought i'd share a few sneaky shots with you! This outfit is from my first day, I had no idea what to wear.. it's pretty casual but I still wanted to look professional, so of course i went with a little blouse and brogues!

Thought i'd spruce up my boring old leather jacket with some pyramid studs - simple!

Park Life


The weather's been so up and down lately, these were taken just before we had a really hot weekend, at the time it was really sunny but there was a cool wind so i refused to take my cardy off! Scored this gorgeous Fiorelli bag in the sale, for my ridiculous collection of bags, i can't quite believe i didn't actually already have one this colour. It's literally perfect and i've been pulling it out nearly every day to use. I haven't managed to take many outfit shots recently as i've got tonsillitis, so as soon as i'm better i can leave the house and play dress up!

Peek a Boo






When I was little I wanted to be an interior designer, until my parents told me I could do something bigger than that (they said i'd be a good lawyer..) so then I looked into doing architecture, until my parents told me not to because I'd be studying for 7 years.. Even if I haven't ended up working towards a career I thought i'd have, i still have a lot of passion for the subjects. I could spend hours looking through interior design magazines, and love any programme which lets you delve into the lives and homes of others. As i've been getting older though - probably now because i'm officially 'in my twenties', I've been thinking of how i'd furnish a flat of my own - and I literally can't decide on what my style would be. Modern and minimal? Vintage and romantic? There's so many options! That is until I found these pictures of Kate Foley's Williamsburg home. A perfect mix of quirky, modern and rustic.

Brighten Up


I've officially finished my second year of University.. i've been working non-stop to finish my latest project - a zine which i'll show you soon! So now i can officially relax and look forward to a long 4 month summer. I'm heading out tonight in Nottingham for a last goodbye with my friends and then packing up and moving home tomorrow! Ofcourse the first thing i do when i hand in all my work? Get searching the net for my new summer buys ofcourse! I'm absolutely loving white on white, and as my favourite colour is orange the colour blocking trend is a great opportunity for me to dip my toes into wearing brighter colours.

Petal Power


Here are some photographs taken in Spain the other week. It was a casual outfit worn for a meal and some cocktails - it was really warm so all I needed was a nice summer dress! I love this bag I picked up at the market in Spain for €8 - what a bargain. I'm a sucker for anything with studs, and it's definitely a welcome change from black

I wish for..


It was my birthday last Wednesday on the 11th and I spent the weekend back home with my friends and family. Can you guess what I got for it?
