Max Mara heels While I’m planning to talk in more detail about why I think a classic black court shoe is such an essential piece to have in your wardrobe, I thought I’d share one of my more recent additions with you. Low, silver block heel, pointed toe, and a slick glossy leather, these are everything I’ve been searching for, and then some. As much as I love a good four inch heel, they don’t make for the best of companions when you’re walking a good six kilometres (or more) every day. These low heeled beauties from Max Mara on…
Constellation print in indigo*, Point Lobos Flash print* Perhaps a little disheartened by Nigel destroying my beloved Beni Ourain, I’ve been slow to decorate – especially when you take into account that we’ve been living in our little slice of suburbia for almost a year now. Instead of pining over the rug that was, I’ve taken to the walls, quite literally.

So instead of trying to pull it together all at once, I’m…
Everlane u-neck t-shirt, Lover white denim skirt (similar), ASOS bandana, Cuyana tote bag (also love this Madewell one), KW x Pointer suede loafers (similar) This is one for the weekend (or a casual Friday in the office, if you can get away with it, like me).My new favourite accessory to wear with anything that is just slightly too low cut for me is a bandana, tied loosely around the neck.

With a lot of fulfilling experiences and memories to look forward to in the next eight months, it felt only natural to try and make our home life (or should I say.. my wardrobe) a little bit lighter. For those of you who weren’t around this time last year, the 5PFW Challenge has three rules: – Only 5 key pieces per season – Basics don’t count – Shoes and accessories do count There are…
Seeing the last month flash by has felt a little bittersweet; how is it February already? Without going so far as to impose a full on shopping ban, there haven’t been many new purchases passing through the doors of my closet or the drawers of my vanity, instead, I’ve been ‘shopping’ my stash. For make up, I’ve been absolutely loving Tarte’s ‘Tartelette’ palette this past month. It’s completely matte which makes it perfect for every day, it has a great selection of 12 shades ranging from light to dark, and the shadows themselves are quite pigmented (if not a little…
