Wishlist: Office Shoes SS16

Office never really seemed to be my go-to shop for shoes and quite honestly I've no idea why because I can’t keep away at the moment, the SS16 collection is amazing capturing all the key trends from mules to loafers and espadrilles, they even have some beaut sling-back Gucci dupes. My wishlist is ever growing as new pairs hit the store especially as there’s currently 20% off all ladies shoes both on-line and in-store…the perfect excuse to share with you all my favourite pairs with plenty of metallics and pastels to get you through the season in style. I'll take those boots in eveeeery colour please.

Happy shopping and don't forget to use the code 'OFFICE20'

So this would have to be the most girly place in the house (sorry Matt) and my absolute fave!! Following on from my living room tour I thought I’d share a little insight to my dressing room…although it may be rather small it’s probably the most used space, filled with all my getting ready essentials from make-up and perfume to clothes, shoes and accessories. Good things come in small packages right?!

The colour scheme was initially based around a grey and white stripe feature wall building up the look alongside pastel pops and floral detailing. A few subtle black hints with frames and slogan prints give the room a little quirk….also helping to tie together my ever growing black shoe collection.

I’m a sucker for shoes so love having them all on display, making it so much easier to find the pair I’m after rather than stored away in boxes.  My pin-board is also ideal for gathering pictures of all my favourite fashion finds/trends…not forgetting my clothing rail where I store my newest or most pretty pieces, there’s usually always something fluffy on here!!

Back to the forest for another of my Center Parcs outfits, getting plenty of wear from my faves putting together a few of the same pieces from my last look posted 'Shearing & Slogans' to save packing a ridiculous amount for one weekend. These included the shearing jacket, chunky boots and my gingham scarf. Scarves are my go-to accessory all year round, always perfect to tie a look together or to add a pop of colour or print.

As always I'm forever drawn to a stripe no matter what the season, they have to be my all-time wardrobe staple. Whether it’s as a simple tee tucked into a button up skirt or high-waisted jeans to a chuck on dress like this super comfy Monki beaut from ASOS, even layering up mixing stripes together for that quirky vibe…they’re just perfect whatever the day.

Fashion: Shearing & Slogans










I don't know about you but I'm well and truly ready for the summer now….these little short spells of sunshine we keep getting are just a tease! For a recent trip to Center Parcs where it’s so ‘outdoors’ based I thought I could at least pretend the weathers getting there but ooh no. It was freezing…so out come the layers again. Although this did give me the opportunity to roll out my fave sherling little number, the perfect Acne dupe with a bargain price tag, nice one Missguided.
If you had a little peak at my recent Topshop SS16 wishlist you would have seen this slogan jumper made an appearance…purchased with my birthday vouchers *thanks girlies* layering up with a roll neck and a monochrome check scarf. Forever loving a Joni jean these ripped beauts are my latest pair to the collection. There’s so much worn denim already making an appearance this season. My lasted post 'Frayed Denim SS16' has gathered together some of my top picks hitting the high-street, I’ve got my eye on some cute cut off denim dungaree from New Look…yes please.
This grey rucksack is from Primark and a total bargain, I’ve seen a few similar in Zara, they have a really cute tassel version too but nothing for this price…also these boots literally don’t leave my feet, mega comfy and give that relaxed vibe to an outfit without having to get out the converse…I’ve been told on a number of occasions to throw them away…but I really can’t. The worn looks in right?!

Fashion: Frayed Denim SS16

I've been on the hunt for that perfect frayed denim piece for a while now so had to share my favourite findings from the high-street. Trends emerging to once again bring back key 1980s and 1990s vintage inspired looks. Those classic denim shades with stone and acid washes against worn looks from rips and ladders to heavy fraying and cut off detailing. Style up true to the era with oversized tees, denim jackets and bombers, adding a grunge vibe teaming alongside chunky boots.

I was so excited to begin the process of collecting all the bits and bobs that make a house individual and homely. If you've read my previous post (New Home // New Inspirations) you will have seen all the research boards I put together for each room to start the process. So after almost 6 months in our little house here’s the fun bit, seeing the rooms come together and my research coming to life.

The Living room was the first to get finished and one of my favourites, with grey, white and black tones plus metallic hints to add a little warmth. Simplistic detailing, clean and crisp with clashing prints from stripes to checks and contrasting textures giving a cosy feel. My favourite pieces have to be the high pile rug that your feet just sink into and the faux fur throw, perfect for those lazy evening on the sofa….and of course the matching pouffe was an essential!

Accessorising was lots of fun from candles to plants and lighting, these Ikea Ranarp lamps are my all-time fave...I have the whole collection dotted about the house. Yes I'm obsessed. The gallery shelf made a great focal point to the room by gathering different prints and frames together. The newest additional to the room is the arm chair, mega comfy layered up with cushions finishing off the room nicely. Not to forget the GIANT bear Billy…who doesn't need a giant bear in their life?!
