SWEATER WEATHER: PERSONAL FAVOURITES FOR AUTUMN/WINTER

Favourite hangout in Autumn/Winter?

Cocomaya, 3 Porchester Place W2 2BS

 

With the autumnal weather, comes the urge to cosy up indoors and satisfy your craving for hot drinks and freshly baked pastries. Yes, stuff yourself with cupcakes and cronuts to your heart's content and no looking back! In Cocomaya, a fine chocolatier and artisan baker, I have the perfect place to do just that. With its chic boutique feel and relaxed atmosphere, it offers me a piece of calm from my busy London life.

SHOW OF LEGS: ALL THOSE IN FAVOUR OF SHORTS & SKIRTS!

 

With the sky still light at 9pm, it can only mean one thing....summer! Of course, with the seasonal change comes the change in what you pick out from your closet and pull together. Shorts and skirts are the answer to being comfortable, all the while stylish and chic in the warm weather. Below are my top picks from both the high-street and designer brands...

SNEAK PEEK: WARDROBE DRESS PICKS

 

 

"Fashion can be bought. Style one must possess." is the saying by Edna Woolman Chase. There's no arguing the truth in this statement. I'm a true believer in being comfortable in what you wear, expressing yourself through fashion as an art form. It's all well and good being inspired by celebrity style and looks from off the runway, but one must learn to interpret them and make it true to their own. Once you find your signature style, tailored to your tastes and personality, there is nothing more satisfying than knowing how to dress for yourself. A style that is personal and unique to you & you only.

WEEKEND AWAY: TRAVEL ESSENTIALS

 

 

A weekend trip away to a different city can often be the best kind of secret escape from our busy lives. However, deciding what to pack may be somewhat of an arduous mission, even more so than packing for a two week vacation. Instead of the usual throwing contents of your whole closet into several suitcases, being practical for a weekend trip is a must. Read on to see what my personal essentials are and ideas on what items should take priority in your luggage!

LOVE FROM PARIS: WHISTLE STOP GUIDE & HIDDEN GEMS

A weekend away to Paris seemed like the perfect getaway from London so almost two weeks ago, my friend, Amber & I packed our bags and jumped on the Eurostar, in desperate need of a short break from our lives back home here in London. Paris is one of my favourite cities having spent at least one week of every summer there ever since I was a little girl. It's tradition and one that will never grow old. If you've never been, go. If you already have, I don't think you need me to tell you to go again!
