My virtual ears always prick up whenever I hear that Net-a-Porter’s bi-annual sale has begun; partly for the nostalgia of buying my first few ‘designer’ items from there in my early twenties, and also in part because it’s a great opportunity to pick up those wardrobe staples at a discounted price. I’ve been doing pretty well at sticking to the rules of the 5PFW Challenge, but I couldn’t help but have a quick peek through some of my favourite designers. At this stage, I’m not planning on buying anything, but I do enjoy a good window shop, and I thought…
From wearing all black to a full head to toe neutral look, one thing is probably painstakingly clear; I love a good monochromatic outfit. They’re effortless, look timeless, and are a simple way to pull together an outfit. Given that neutrals are such a big trend at the moment, I thought I’d share some of my favourite neutrals picks for the colder months.

But over the last year I’ve found myself really warming up to the humble sneaker. One of my most recent sneaker additions are a pair I got for my birthday from sustainable sneaker brand; Veja. I’ve been seriously putting these to the test over the last four months, and today I thought I’d share my thoughts on the Veja Esplar sneakers. Wearing Minusey sweater (15% off with ‘mademoiselle15’ or alternative option here), ASOS…
The underlying tenets of my wardrobe are quality over quantity, with a big focus on ensuring I get a good cost-per-wear out of anything new I add to it. I’d like to think that over the years, I’ve shifted (mostly) away from trend-led pieces and more towards timeless designs that will truly stand the test of time. Wearing Rue Stiic linen top, Mott & Bow skinny jeans, IRO coat (s/o but similar option here), Sam Edelman loafers (also here), Oroton bag, Holly J necklace, Mejuri necklace, Holly J earrings While I still purchase the odd item from the high street,…
