Lavender Fields at Castle Farm

On Sunday I visited the biggest lavender farm in the UK and it was exactly what you imagine it to be; stunning hues of purple accompanied by glorious scents filling the entire valley.

Castle Farm is located in Sevenoaks, Kent and is free to park and wander around the farm. There is an adorable coffee cart selling the smoothest coffee and biscuits (lavender flavoured, naturally). As well as, a farm shop selling ice creams and bunches of lavender, which would look lovely in anyone's kitchen.

In the UK the weather is surprisingly still rather hot, however, sometimes it can get muggy which is where kimonos have become a real hero in my wardrobe. They're light, moveable and add interest to any outfit. Patterned kimonos should be the main focus so, the outfit should be kept simple for a day out.

This look is a bit of a casual one but you could easily dress the kimono up with a pair of nude heels and a pretty lace black top and black skinny jeans, or bring it in at the waist with a belt for more structure.

Wild Prints and Winter Walks

Animal print is a trend I've kept well away from in the past...but I can no longer ignore it, as every year it creeps on to my Instagram feed. 

So this year I've been swayed and inspired to experiement. I've paired these two coats with a simple black knitted dress as to not take any attention away from the print. 

I also think if you paired the coat seen in the first photo with a pair of blue denim jeans, and black tee it would look perfect for a morning stroll to grab a coffee...or add a bit of red lipstick to go from day to night. 

Leopard print is more verstile than I first thought and also a lot easier to wear, it's definitely bold and it took me a while to get used to seeing myself in it but I love it. 

I've wanted to style this bag with an outfit ever since I found it in Zara. A few months ago I fell in love with Chloe bags...especially the Faye collection, and this is a more affordable dupe with the simple detailing of the gold ring and tassle. A perfect classic.
