When in doubt, wear stripes

Don't you just love it when you discover photos? I've just found these photos on my laptop, they were taken a few months ago in my favourite tunnel, Leake Street Tunnel, by my uber-cool photographer friend, +Dan Liburd

Who doesn't love stripes? Worn thick or thin, in various colours, directions, thickness and structures, stripes are my go-to whenever I'm feeling a little 'blah'. I love how this shirt is oversized with a 70s vibe. Since I snapped this shirt up from Topshop last year I must admit that I have pretty much lived in it. I've been switching it up though, you know, making it work hard, I've teamed it with ripped skinnies, leather trousers and at times (as I have in these pictures )I have worn it as a 'dress.'

As for these flatforms...well yes, I'm STILL obsessed!

Are are fan of stripes?

Let me know. x

Super stripes

Happy Easter!

Hands up if you have eaten way too much chocolate today? Ha, I have been scoffing all day (someone move the chocolates away from me!) but to be fair I did give up chocolate for lent, yes really!! so that meant 40 days with out my fave treat and I wont lie it was sooo hard!!!

So according to my calendar today is supposed to be the first day of Summer, but today was as cold as ice! I wore this outfit to Easter Sunday dinner with the fam. I love mixing things up a bit and having fun with fashion. I find eye- popping colours such as this pink blazer and cute accessories such as this skull head band can add the fun factor to just about any outfit.

Stripes are really in the spotlight this season! The high street is dripping with stripes on pretty much everything I have a love-hate relationship with this striped maxi dress (from Very.co.uk) as I do feel sometimes that stripes can make me look a little 'hippy'. What I do love about this dress is that it is very versatile. I would easily throw a leather jacket or denim jacket over it .As I am only 5ft 3, the dress is a little long but that's why god invented heels.
