Isabel Marant ‘dicker’ boots It’s no secret that I’m a girl who is obsessed with shoes, considering how often I tend to refer to them and how frequently it would appear that I buy a new pair. It’s been a long time coming before I finally succumbed to a pair of dicker boots, or at least, I should say, a second pair of dicker boots. Like most holiday purchases, the first were an incredibly impulsive buy while in LA, after learning that the NYC Creatures of Comfort store had one taupe pair left in my size. The extent to which…
Bassike v-neck t-shirt (similar), Isabel Marant tundra skirt, Kate Sylvester coat (similar), Vintage boots (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel I know what you’re probably thinking – didn’t I say that I only had one winter coat? Well, it would seem that the sales have gotten the better of me, as I’ve found myself stocking up on some much needed basics as well as a few ‘statement pieces’.

Oh, and if you haven’t…

While it has most certainly been on the mild side, I spent most days in a heavy knit jumper, and either a skirt or pants/jeans, and wouldn’t dare think of leaving the house without wearing my winter coat. You’d probably be surprised to learn that I only own one coat, in addition to a light trench and a leather…
I doubt it’s any secret by now that I’m not overly fond of winter. I spend the majority of those three cold winter months scouring the internet for sandals, sleeveless blouses, swimsuits and sunglasses, all the while daydreaming of clear skies and sandy beaches. This year, I’m getting a head start on my summer wishlist – I learnt my lesson last year, when it finally came time to head to the beach and I realised I was without a pair of sandals. As you can imagine, loafers and sand don’t go so well together, and it wasn’t until summer had…
