How to Style White Jeans for Spring

Nothing says spring like a pure white pair of jeans, especially spring 2018. In the past they have got a bad rep and been associated with women including J-Lo circa 2001’s Love Don’t Cost a Thing, polymath presenter Clare Blading and Liz Hurley: too r ‘n’ b, too Sloane and St Tropez. I love fresh… Continue reading How to Style White Jeans for Spring

Matchy-Matchy: Collars, Cuffs and Earrings

I don’t consider myself a matchy-matchy dresser, I’m more than happy to wear clothes and accessories that clash or not even that exciting, just sit together and don’t say much.

Five of my Favourite | Midi Dresses

I love wearing trousers (insert pun here;) my failsafe uniform is a great pair of jeans, tee, blazer and standout earrings but I have been swayed by this season’s midi dress. Some are peasant’y, folk’y, printed, block-coloured, romantic and ruffled but don’t let any of this put you off because with the right styling they… Continue reading Five of my Favourite | Midi Dresses

Summer Holiday Haul Vlog for Yahoo Style

Yes, the weather is unpredictable where one moment the sun shines and you are panicking without SPF and the next you are stomping through puddles and back in your leather jacket. Ever the optimist I have heard that with this dismal start may mean we are set for a glorious late Indian summer – well… Continue reading Summer Holiday Haul Vlog for Yahoo Style
