Daria Werbowy, Kate Moss and Lara Stone by Bruce Weber for W Magazine I’ve spent the last two days bundled up in bed with Charlotte curled up next to me, while trying to fight off a nasty case of the flu. I haven’t been this sick in a while – that woozy, getting out of bed uses too much energy, kind of sick – and it’s completely thrown me off guard. So please excuse me while I crawl back under the covers…
Topshop Kingdom ghillie flats The ghillie flat is really having a moment. Or, just lace up flats in general, if we’re really being honest. I got completely suckered in after spotting these on the feet of Michelle (enabler, much?); after scoring the last available pair in my size, I was quickly taken but just how worth the hype these are. I’m usually the last person to jump on a trend (flares just really aren’t my jam), and it’s a little known fact that anything which ties up around the ankle has a tendency to be far from flattering, but the…
Country Road stripe midi dress, Acne Studios mape leather jacket, Mansur Gavriel bucket bag, Charlotte Olympia kitty flats Sometimes all you need is to break out of your comfort zone a little.

I’ve been counting down the days to Spring; sunsets which paint the sky like cotton candy, weekends pottering in the garden growing a crop of fresh veg, and any ol’ excuse to wear full and floaty skirts in gelati-hues, because, why not? In anticipation of warmer mornings (and longer afternoons – !!), I’ve given my wardrobe a little bit of a Spring *refresh*; there’s something old, something new, and something that’s a certain kind of blue. I’m of the belief that a new season shouldn’t demand an entire new wardrobe; instead, it’s more about re-working what you have and adding…
image source unknown I’ve been thinking a lot about perfection lately. The perfect candle, the perfect red lipstick, the perfect pair of ballet flats. It’s no secret that over the last couple of years, my wardrobe has become simple, easy, minimal even. I’ve been shifting my mindset to quality over quantity (although truthfully, to begin with, it was a bit of both…), and for the large part, I was consumed with the idea that everything I bought had to be perfect.
