MADE IN CHELSEA

Jacket - AllSaints
Shirt - Zara
Jeans - Topshop
Trainers - Adidas
Bag - Ted Baker

Today the boyfriend and I thought we would try and fit in some exercise into our weekend routines, as too often we end up lounging on the sofa wondering where the time has gone. So we headed out on a stroll to Battersea park and something just came over us and we couldn't seem to stop walking, then before we knew it we had crossed the bridge and ended up in Chelsea. Chelsea has some of the most beautiful buildings and little alleyways I have ever seen. So with all this idyllic scenery around me I thought it would be perfect for shooting some blog photos.

The weather was actually quite mild so I could wonder around happily with my leather jacket on and not feel freezing, I also took my new over sized checkered shirt out for a spin, it's so cosy and you can sneakily hide extra layers underneath if you need a little bit of extra warmth.

Oh by the way if you ever happen to stumble into Chelsea like us, then head to Kings Road and the restaurant Polpo in the square does some of the best food I have tasted! Not to mention you get a nice view of the Saatchi gallery.

Hope you all had a lovely weekend.

Bonjour, so as you may have guessed I am having a quiet Saturday night in!

The other half and I spent most of the day wondering around the amazingly graffiti-ed little streets of Shoreditch looking for some cute antiques for our new pad which we are due to hopefully move into in the next coming months. That's right I'm finally moving! After running out of space for all our stuff in our small one bed, we are hopefully due to move in the next couple of months, and I can't wait! And it's safe to say this excitement is manifesting itself on my Pinterest page, with rustic home interior pins becoming a very regular occurrence.

Now on to the important part of this post and not my ramblings. The outfit. So today was rediculously chilly, which meant one thing when it came to an outfit choice. Layers.

In today's outfit I am actually wearing not 2 but 4 layers; a vest top, light jumper, cardigan and then a leather jacket. And this still didn't stop the cold. My favourite piece within this ensemble is definitely my AllSaints cardigan, I have had it for 3 years now and it's still going strong. You can actually clip it at the front, giving it a nice drape effect, so very versatile.

How are you all managing to stay stylish but battle the cold?

WINTER WARMER

Jumper - French Connection
Jeans - Topshop
Coat - AllSaints
Boots - Russell & Bromley
Bag - Topshop

It's Sunday evening again, just where did the weekend go! I spent most of my weekend getting into the Christmas spirit (I mean it is the start of December tomorrow, so the count down begins). I started my Christmas shopping on Saturday, although Oxford St. was manic because of Black Friday weekend and I kind of got distracted and accidentally bought this cuddly jumper from French Connection as an early present to myself. I then spent Sunday at the Christmas market at South Bank, where I took my jumper out for a spin, whilst enjoying the pop up Rekordelig Cider Lounge (being a country gal it made me feel at home) and watching adults and children a like getting lost in the Christmas tree maze.

Did any of you make the most of Black Friday weekend, or have you started your Christmas shopping?

I have been counting down to the Easter weekend for I don't know how long, mainly so I can sleep but also because I made a promise to myself that I would start getting back into blogging. I find being back home it is so much easier to take photos, whereas in London there is always so many people on the street that I always get funny looks when I'm trying to take photos.

Any way, enough of my gibba gabba, here is my latest outfit post, my Mum and Dad are actually moving house so I have been wearing this checkered top all day whilst trying to clear out the garage. I guess I was trying to recreate the outfits you see in films when people are moving house, all I need now is the denim dungarees!

Also whilst clearing out my room I found these heels in the back of my wardrobe, unworn! I couldn't believe it, they are so comfortable as well, I will definitely be wearing them on on Sunday for some bank holiday antics :)

I hope you are all enjoying the lovely sunshine.

Well it's Monday again, what happened to the weekend that's what I want to know, one minute its Friday and the next I'm getting back up for work! Although work today was actually pretty cool I was getting in contact with some people from Hearst Magazine, which for those of you who don't know they own Company magazine which is one of my all time favourite magazines to read. Even though I was only asking for pictures of awards that our products had won I still thought it was quite exciting.

But I guess even though the weekend does fly by one of the perks of being a blogger is that we always have our trusty camera and so we have our pictures to remind us what we have done and what we wore. So here is my lazy Sunday outfit, I guess you could say I am channeling a mix of cowboy meets rock-star. Hopefully I pulled it off in a way that works, but I will let you guys be the judges. The top I am 'rocking' is actually long enough to wear as a dress, which is one of the things I love about it, it is so multi-purpose.

I hope you all had a great weekend even if it was gone in a flash.

Just a quick post today as I have started my new job and so things are a little hectic, especially getting used to going to work at 9am (no more student lie ins!). But as most of you know I went to Italy a few weeks back and so I wanted to show you one of the outfits I wore when we went for a lovely family meal.

My dress is from All Saints, it's one of the more luxurious dresses I own and it's one of my favourites. It feels so soft and silky on your skin and the way it falls is just so flattering. I wanted to keep the look simple so I then paired it with my golden sandals and just some simple silver jewellery and hence the end result is something that I feel resembles my childhood idol...Pocahontas.
