Autumn stories

 Shopping in Zara wearing new Zara gilet, love navy and pink together, pink details, at a launch party with Rosie Fortescue (from Made in Chelsea), gold everything, bundled up in a Missoni scarf, favourite YSL clutch and new(ish) favourite Loubies , when autumn comes I tend to wear a lot more black (adding a pop of pink with a scarf or other accessories), outfit for a lunch with a friend.

 

Outfit I wore to a friend's baby Christening: from the top, laid out and accessories, burgundy is my must have colour during fall, Halloween ready, minimal make up using Nars Multiple, Sunday dinner at Burger and Lobster with my friends, all black everything (love this top that I had for ages from H&M), coffee with friends.

 

Gotta love a pink lipstick ;), I've been living in jeans on my days off, my nude Loubies were the best buy ever (they literally go with everything), Christmassy nails already (I'll be having a lot of fun with this Deborah Lippmann set), jeans again but much more casual outfit, trip to the Natural History museum, sneak peek of my bedroom, glammed up for a Christening, weekendwear (the pink leather has been on serious repeat).

 

Have a stylish day.

Layers

Jacket Muubaa, jumper Mango, shirt H&M, jeans J Brand, boots Kurt Geiger, bag and watch Michael Kors, rings YSL, necklace H&M.

 

After quite busy two months (getting used to new job) I should hopefully be back to blogging more regularly. I miss it!
I just had a long weekend catching up with friends and spent Sunday at Natural History museum where we took the pictures. Not only it's the building absolutely beautiful but there is so much to see and explore. If you haven't been, make sure you go (if you can).
London has suddenly gone cold and I opted for layers (good thing if you're tall like me). It was comfy and casual, perfect for stroll in South Kensington later too.
How was your weekend?

Have a stylish day.

Party season ready

Dress, sandals, necklace, earrings, lipstick

With the party season fast approaching, it's time to start planning your outfits. Invitations filling your diary may bring the old dilemma of what to wear, but don't worry there's always internet shopping. And you don't have to break the bank to look glamorous this year. This whole outfit comes from George.com from under £100!! Plus all the pieces are timeless and super versatile so you can mix and match with anything that may is in your wardrobe already. It's win win situation really.

Have a stylish day.

Old wives tales /hair mask review/

Few weeks ago I got contacted by the lovely Lily about organic hair care products Old Wives Tail and whether I'd be interested in testing it. As my hair was in desperate need of some TLC I jumped at the chance. I picked the Rosemary & Argan Organic Oil treatment which is aimed at very dry damaged hair (like mine).

I tried it the very same day I received it and have been using it quite regularly since. My hair felt instantly silkier and moisturised. Don't expect miracles - these things take time, but every time I use it I feel a little difference and definitely want to continue.

It has added organic rosemary oil to stimulate scalp and encourage healthy hair growth which sounds great to me!

There are different ways to use it. I put it on overnight as my hair really is in bad condition, but thanks to this it has been improving.

It contains no chemicals or additives and the company gives 10% of their profits to charities.

What's not to like?

 

Have a stylish day.

Transitioning

As it felt quite cold these past few days I've been thinking a lot about Fall and transitioning my wardrobe into the new season. I wore both this skirt and blouse loads during summer and I hope I can find ways how to keep wearing them (the skirt is an all-rounder, with the blouse it's trickier..).

 I started looking at winter coats and boots and although it's quite sad thinking that Summer will soon be over, Autumn is such a beautiful time of the year and I'm excited for the things ahead.

I still hope there will be an Indian Summer, but it's really time to start preparing your wardrobe for Fall.

Minimalist

August weather has gone crazy. Yes there is still a lot of sunshine, but what's up with all the rain? So I am reminiscing to one of the hottest days of the year not so long ago (even though it seems ages at the same time..). I was heading to a pool a kept my look very minimal. Hardly any jewellery, minimal make up and simple outfit. On such hot day hair up is an essential. Let's hope there is still plenty of super hot days to be had.

 

Skirt and top H&M, sandals ADIDAS, bag Miu Miu, sunglasses Dior, watch Michael Kors.

Changes...

 Last couple of weeks were full of big changes. First I moved into my new flat (and I've been so busy I still haven't finished unpacking all...), then one of my best friends (the one who took pictures for my blog) moved to another country and I had a job interview last Monday and started on Wednesday. I hardly had time to sink it all in.. It's been really full on hence the little blogging break. I'm sad to say for the next few weeks the posts will be a bit irregular until I get into some sort of routine again.

But all is good. Life is finally taking the right direction and I couldn't be happier. After one of the worst years last year, this is shaping up to be one of the best. And I'm already making lots of exciting plans for next year!

I'd love for you to follow me along the journey and I hope you're having a great year too.

Summer stories

Lately I've been so busy what with a full time job, blogging 5 days a week, moving to a new place and much more.. so it's nice to find time to relax and catch up on fashion mags. Spotted these gorgeous pair of Louboutins in Harvey Nichols and they are high on my lust list, gold favourites, sneak peek of my new bedroom (love the mirror which I got for next to nothing and painted gold), pink roses on my new mantel piece, minimal summer look, this Summer I'm loving new coconut frappucino (I've had too many already..), pink makes me happy, buying Diptyque candles for my new place.

 

Pink roses for my new bedroom, can't get enough of gold and dainty rings are my latest obsession, effortless summer look - obsessed with stripes, few favourites, working from bed before my furniture arrived, pool time - can Summer stay forever?!, nautical selfie, obsessed with my Valentino shoes - I need more!, make up bits I've been wearing lately.

Have a stylish day.

Pastel days

 I am not one to wear pastels much. These are pretty much the main(only?) pieces I own. But I'm meant to be getting outside of my comfort zone more so there you go..

I hope you all had a lovely weekend.

 

Jeans Current Elliott, top River Island (from last year), bag Dolce and Gabbana, shoes Valentino, sunglasses local market (very similar by Zara here) , watch Michael Kors, earrings New look, rings YSL and H&M.

July outfits

July was a great month! What with the great weather we've been having here in England, how could you complain?! I've been really enjoying the heat wave and living in shorts and short skirts. I just moved to a new place this week and will spend the weekend DIYing and decorating. Can't wait to share with you some pictures.
In the meantime here's what I wore in July and let's hope for a hot August too.

Have a great weekend AND August.

Also have a stylish day.
