Flaring + Charlie May

Here I am doing my best impression of looking warm. I was actually trying to conceal a pair of very cold breasts. But you wouldn't know that, unless I told you. Very glamourous.

I just needed to share these trousers with you. I absolutely adore them. I picked them up in Copenhagen from Weekday, Danish basics brand that is anything but basic. The cut, crop and flare are everything I desire in a pair of trousers. Plus they make me feel quite trim, and that's always a bonus. My top is by Charlie May, wonder woman designer and blogger. I got it at the sample sale a few months ago and it's now my go-to going 'out-out' top. Low enough to be night time ready but it's basically still a t-shirt.

Next up are my wonderful snake print Kurt Geiger boots (now in the sale!). Now I've worn them in, they are the comfiest things! And obviously a great statement for a muted outfit.

The rings you see, I made myself, yes me, I did that! (well, one of them). The gorgeous Kirstie & Katy from The Workbench London invited Chris and I along a few weeks ago, you can read all about it here, and we got to design and make our own rings. Chris, the little love, made me one, so I got two! I am so over the moon, they really are my perfect rings.

Ugly shoes

Earlier this year Isabel Marant sparked a frenzy for the ugly shoe. I don't know about you but, the more I see them, the more I love them. It's safe to say I'll be living in them this summer, as I already have two pairs and we have only had 2 sunny days! If you're struggling to find some affordable luxe ones, head to Zara. I had some black leather Zara ones wing their way to me yesterday, they are similar to the Marant ones and they were only £29.99! In love.

LFW: Charlie May AW14

I first learned of the wonderful brand that is Charlie May, last year. I don't know how on earth it took me this long to find her but my goodness, it's like she designs with me in mind. Every piece is amazing, wearable and cool. I attended her show back in September 2013 during London Fashion Week and it was the absolute highlight to my Fashion Week experience. Each collection is tailored or oversized to perfection with a palette of colours that will make your heart melt. I couldn't get to this seasons' show at LFW, which I was completely devastated by, but the girls at HPR were kind enough to send me the shots of what I missed. Be prepared to spend every penny you've got!

Have you fallen in love with Charlie May yet?

London Fashion Week SS14: my round up

I have been a little absent recently, and I am sorry! I have just started a new job with a new trust as a Physiotherapist, so my life has been pretty crazy of late.

Even though LFW SS14 seems forever ago, I still have a few gems that I wanted to share with you all before we start to look forward to viewing the AW14 collections in January.
