ACNE Dream Jacket


I'm very lucky that my boyfriend has incredible dress sense. Cue him giving me some inspiration and his wonderful ACNE jacket that I refuse to take off.
These shots were taken on one of my wonderful days off from work. My days off are so important to me because I make sure I fill them up with creativity, inspirational people and generally feel-good things! 

I'm living in my Gap trousers at the moment, super easy to wear, comfortable and best of all, they work wonderfully with my trainer collection. You don't need me to point out that it's getting colder....but it is, so I'm quite happy to layer away now. I put on my Sacai sweat x shirt hybrid top for extra warmth and obviously, my Anya Hindmarch bag came too.

I hope you're having a class week! Happy flipping Friday!

Wish Lyst

I've teamed up with Lyst to bring you my very own Wish Lyst. 
Lyst is a place that comes together with the world's greatest designers in order to bring you the best personal shopping experience online. Not to mention hunting down the best prices, all at the touch of a button.

I wanted to share with you, my top four picks for dresses because its something I don't wear nearly enough of, and I really should. There's something at Lyst to suit everyone's bank balance, which is one of the best bit about it.
I'm off to drag out my layering pieces so I can choose which one of these dresses I can start to wear the heck out of!
This Wang piece is winning at Winter for me- and because it's cashmere mixed, it'll be so toasty! A perfect layering piece. I'd always opt for a clean white shirt underneath.
I always feel like Gingham is Check's younger and better looking sister. This shirt from Isabel Marant is such a great piece to have, season after season. It can be styled under a heavy grey knit in the Winter or paired with some denim cut off shorts in the Summer.
I cannot get over the price here. All you'll need is your trusty white Oxford shirt to throw on underneath and you've got yourself a cool, clean outfit.
This piece speaks for itself. I'd wear this under a long structured wool coat with boots or brogues for a wintery update.

I've pulled my inspiration behind layering and getting Winter ready from Pintrest. In my opinion, simplicity always works best when layering. Keep the colours neutral and the shapes clean cut.

Thank you so much for reading and I hope this has been a useful little post (ACNE for £58?...of course it has).

Fresh Whites with Footasylum


Over the Bank Holiday weekend I went to Leeds Festival, which broke me entirely, and stole my voice (it's not even fully back yet, much to my parents amusement). So I needed to spend at least some of the Bank Holiday doing absolutely nothing. Chris and I went further South from London to Emsworth where he grew up, and I don't think I've been anywhere that is more still and quiet- a wonderfully welcome change from running around London everyday. I didn't pack lightly by any means because you just don't know when you're going to need a change of clothes!
Footasylum, the absolute footwear God's, sent me these incredible new release adidas L.A. trainers in chalk white and to be quite honest, I haven't taken them off yet. I'm a sucker for white on white so these tick all of my footwear boxes. I did run into a muddy puddle but...it's the countryside, what can you do. These kicks literally feel like you're wearing socks and they have Continental rubber on the sole which is a cool and practical touch!

How I styled my adidas L.A. kicks
ACNE Studios Barlet white stone dress
COS pleated trouser
Ray-ban sunglasses c/o Red Hot Sunglasses

Trainers are every tomboy's dream. I love an oversized shirt with some tailoring and my favourite pair of trainers- you can stay polished but still feel comfortable.
These new adidas L.A. will be coming with me to London Fashion Week in two weeks time- my schedule tells me I'm going to need something comfortable as well as cool on my feet!

I hope you've got a wonderful weekend planned.
Thank you so much for reading.

That jumper

ACNE, one of my all time favourite brands. It's Scandi clean lines and ability to make you feel  incredible when your wearing it are just 2 of the many reason why I love it. Layering, another great love of mine, especially in the Winter. When ACNE brought out this jumper, I tried to hunt it down for around 3 weeks, to my horror it was sold out, everywhere. I'm not one for buying dupe items, but when I couldn't get my hands on the real one....I settled for this She Inside one. I still love it and it still looks amazing so I'm happy enough!
