Back in 2011, I was a couple years into my professional career, and beginning to appreciate the value of a minimal wardrobe. I’d discovered a few French minimalist bloggers, and idolised them. I’d make lists of every core piece I felt my “perfect” wardrobe needed, and spent countless hours looking for the right piece. Always, always, looking to make these investment purchases. Wearing Everlane cami; AGOLDE skinny jeans; Witchery belt; Babaton blazer (similar option here and also here); Everlane slingback heels; Oroton bag (similar); Mejuri bracelets; Muru Jewellery apollo necklace; au|rate earrings It wasn’t until I decided to give the…
I never really talked about it a lot, but prior to falling pregnant, exercise formed a big part of my routine. I’d go for a run five days out of seven, and on rest days would do a handful of HIIT exercises at home. It was fairly early on into my pregnancy (16 weeks) that I had to give up running to ensure I was protecting my pelvic floor, which I promptly replaced with a daily hour long walk.

Clearly, I have a bit of a thing for an embellished shoe. First, it was the Jimmy Choo Bing Mules. Now, it’s the Amina Muaddi Begum Heels.

Kicking off the second week of winter with another outfit; this time, the hero piece is a Scandi-inspired oversized coat. It’s safe to say I’ve really been feeling the cold of late, and am relishing the chance to properly start pulling out my winter coats. Wearing Sheep Inc. merino sweater; Madewell skinny jeans (love this version too); Witchery belt; Mute by JL coat; Everlane heels; Linjer bag (review here); Mejuri chain necklace; Muru Jewellery sun pendant; Boden earrings; Fedoma Jewellery ring If my last few style posts haven’t been an obvious clue, I’ve fallen into a habit of wearing knitwear…
Normally, I’d kick off each new month with a round up of the beauty products I’ve had on rotation; both new and old. But May was one of those months where I just used what I had. I didn’t even bother reaching into my “beauty stash” to mix things up as I was content with my daily routine. So instead, I thought I’d share a peek into my haircare routine. The products I use both in and out of the shower, that have had a transformative effect for me. To give a bit of background, I used to be the…
