India, First Outift

Jet Lag is a distant memory, so it is time to hit the streets and see what India has to offer. I feel there will be plenty of shopping going on, but I need to pace myself and not go crazy just yet. A bright outfit is needed for such a bright day and starting from the top I have on a Dorothy Perkins top, Miss Selfridge cardigan and La Redoute sandals . The harem trousers I made out of a great wash and wear fabric which is a must for travelling.

Must Get Packing

It is so exciting, I am heading off to India in a couple of days and need to fine tune my packing to make sure everything is ready....especially the all important medicine kit. Today I am wearing a top, Top Shop Cardigan a skirt bought in Japan, 1980's vintage shoes and an amazing necklace found at Spitalfields Market.

Exciting photos from India coming soon.

Spring Chill

With a bit of a chill in the air, I thought I would wear this jacket one last time before it is retired for the summer. The Primark jacket started off with a basic military look, which I cranked up to another level by adding a variety of silver buttons. I pulled the rest of the outfit together with a combination of market and charity items.

An Evening Out With Friends


We were out late last night helping friends celebrate 10 years together. It was such a lovely evening and great to be able to share such a happy occasion when has been so much sadness. It seemed fitting to wear a beautiful touch of Japan in the form of this Vintage Haori friends brought over from the Shitennoji Temple in Osaka. It was finished off with a Tie Rack Scarf, Esprit bag and very old cowboy boots.

A Day In Canterbury

There never seems to be enough time to take in all the history this fair land has to offer. Still I continue to make an effort one building at a time. The bit of history for today was Canterbury Cathedral and in one word WOW. My cultured outfit is a jacket from Bicester Village, H&M top, James Lakeland Cardigan and a skirt I made.

A Fine End

It is Friday and the end of the week, yippee. Bring on the weekend. There is definitely a chill back in the air, so for warmth I am wearing a hat from Hatz, a Malvin coat found at TKMaxx, Charity shop skirt and boots from Spitalfields Market.
