FASHION: Paolita At Portman Village Jubilee Street Party

It’s only three more days until the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and I’ve kicked off my celebrations early, running around London to various Diamond and British heritage themed events. There are too many to blog about them all – I do have a day job – but I thought I’d share a few highlights over the coming days. Last year I was introduced to a gorgeously eclectic swimwear … Continue reading FASHION: Paolita At Portman Village Jubilee Street Party

FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Zara and Yuki Tokyo

As promised I’ve finally posted the outfit that went with my Petra K inspired hair. I’m obsessed with this outfit and have been wearing it far too much! The Yuki Dress is body con but still suitable for work and my Zara coat is the perfect mix of classic and contemporary. As for the shoes… they’re surprisingly comfortable (thanks to  the dozens of people who asked if my feet … Continue reading FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Zara and Yuki Tokyo

ESCAPES: Snow Baby!

Saturday night I was out and about for Waitangi Day when flakes started falling in London, not used to the snow I almost immediately fell over. I regained some balance and played in the snow for the rest of the evening before venturing out on sunday in my cosy Miwa By Yuki Tassle Jumper to explore the winter wonderland. I love this jumper so much, … Continue reading ESCAPES: Snow Baby!

FASHION: Zara Colour Clash

Sometimes in life things seem to happen for a reason. Yesterday for example the Oxford Circus underground station was closed due to overcrowding; this happens to me a lot working in Central London and usually lasts about five min. Not yesterday though, therefore I was forced to go to the Zara sale and buy things FORCED! And there they were just waiting for me…. These … Continue reading FASHION: Zara Colour Clash

FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Fur, Faux, Foe

 I took a little trip to fairytale land over Christmas, also known as Prague in the Czech Republic. Unfortunately it wasn’t destined to be a white Christmas but none the less I was prepared for cold weather and suitably layered up. Inspired by the guards at the Royal Palace, and by the copious amounts of fur seen on the Prague streets, I put together this … Continue reading FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Fur, Faux, Foe

FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Bowl Me Over

My flatmates recently organised a little “non competitive”  bowling outing to All Star Lanes in Brick Lane London where we enjoyed 50’s style shakes and a turn on the lanes. I planned myself a little 50’s outfit and the super talent Tara O’Hehir  took these cute pics of me attempting to bowl. Sadly bowling shoes aren’t as cute as they used to be, check out these velcro … Continue reading FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Bowl Me Over
