image source: one | two I’ve started off the month with a new beauty regime in mind – one which I’m hoping will mean I look fresh faced, and give my skin a chance to breathe. I’m sure I’ve mentioned this on the odd occasion before, but part of the reason it took me such. a. long. time to get into make-up is because I’ve struggled with eczema and dermatitis for the last ten years or so. Over the last few months I’ve developed a bit of redness on my face – an issue I’d never struggled with previously –…
image source: one | two | three Luke and I have pretty much dived into wedding planning head first, and it’s not until you start planning your own that you begin to realise how much goes into it. Thankfully, we still have quite a lot of time ahead of us (no harm in getting a little head start!), but as I see it, there’s no time like the present. So while I’m busy deciding on things like venue, menu and table settings (amongst other things), at least there’s one thing I know I’m set on – aside from the dress,…
I’m a good two months in to the Five Piece French Wardrobe challenge and I’ve somehow managed to refrain from adding too many things to my closet.

I bit the bullet back in September last year and pre-ordered it, a good six months out, and I…

I’ve shared a couple of my more recent work outfits here and here (think ankle grazing trousers and dresses which skim the knees), but this really rounds out the trio; a pencil skirt, silk tank, and a long cosy cardigan paired with the tallest of tall heels I…
My beauty routine has been changing up quite a bit recently with the shift in the seasons. I’ve also added a few new beauty bits into regular rotation over the last couple of months, so I thought I’d quickly share with you what is currently making the cut in my daily make-up routine. Starting with my base, I’ve been really loving the Laura Mercier oil-free tinted moisturizer. I have this in the shade ‘Sand’ which is definitely more of a summer shade for me, although I’ve been making it work by mixing it with my Elis Faas foundation in the…
