How to Wear a Crop Top

Gasp! Two outfit posts in a row! I almost never do that! Well, the fact is that I had planned to write something else for today, probably something deep and meaningful about shoes, or possibly spring jackets. I am, however, in a hotel with the suckiest WiFi in the world. It is WiFi so sucky

Making the Most of the Sunshine

So at the moment I’m mostly pretending I’m on holiday. The sun is shining, and I totally plan to make the most of it while it lasts. Yesterday we planned a lovely afternoon going for a run in the country, stopping for a picnic lunch and then walking back to the car. The weather obviously

The Future's so Bright….

I *should* have worn shades! On Friday afternoon I was going out for lunch and as the weather was so beautifully bright and sunny I decided it was the perfect opportunity to wear that fabulous Boden dress I bought in TK Maxx over the Easter weekend. I also decided it was the perfect opportunity to

Retro Chick Reviews: Style Me Vintage 1940s

I was very excited last week when the latest in the Style Me Vintage series dropped through my door. This is the 6th book I’ve now reviewed in the series and I can safely say they just keep getting better. What I really love about them is their accessibility. They’re all a blend of information

I spent Friday night exploring glamorous Ealing. On Saturday we were heading to Wembley to watch the Rugby (and more importantly, my Mum and Dad singing with Rock Choir on the pitch) so we treated ourselves to a hotel the night before instead of trekking down from Norwich on the day. Don’t worry, today isn’t

The Day I was Photobombed by a Cat

After a fit of introspection on Friday, I got over it by going out for cocktails. So I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know we’re back to frivolous frock photos today! I’d planned to head down to Revolucion de Cuba for their Happy Hour Cocktails for about 6pm, which meant leaving pretty early. So I

Florals & Black

On Monday I was whinging about how black tights are too heavy for spring. Well today I bring you the solution. Yes, you can look all springlike, stay warm, and still not have to worry about sticking your fingers through your sheer tights. The answer? Dark florals. A floral on a black base works with

Cute Summer Sports Wear

Even back when I started running in 2012 it was weirdly hard to buy interesting sports kit. There were specialist retailers like Sweaty Betty, and Nike sometimes had some colourful and quirky choices, but when you hit the High Street sports wear for Women was all black and grey, and occasionally pink. These days everyone’s
