Fit to Flare


The last time I wore flares was when Britney Spears was number one in the chart! I remember them well- they were light washed denim with pink butterflies scattered on them. I loved them. 

I'm ditching the denim flares, for now. However, the character Sophia from the Netflix series Girlboss wears them and looks SUPER amazing so, I might have to find a pair of denim flares and relive the 90's. 

For now though - these wide legged trousers are all for comfort! I've gone full volume with these trousers so, I've played it slim by finishing the outfit off with a blazer to add structure to the silhouette. The high-waisted nature of these accentuates my legs making them look longer, and makes the waist appear smaller as they sit higher than jeans would. There a piece that can dramatically transition into an alternative evening look. 

I did find it hard to choose shoes to match these. I think pairing these with heels would give this outfit a chicness but for the park, I stuck to trainers.

Feeling Lighter - How to Dress for Humid Weather



I've forever been a fan of the midi skirt. It's simple, effortless and the perfect transitional piece. They are ideal for that in-between weather we have in England- the humid kind.

I like this one because it's not too tight yet still has that figure hugging feel- this style of midi skirt is better suited for those lazy Sundays. A loosely fitted shirt juxtaposes the tighter fit of the skirt and trainers keeps the outfit casual and cool.

In the hotter months, I tend to opt for little or no jewellery. This small chained bracelet from Tiffany&Co is perfect to add intricate detailing to an otherwise plain outfit. If you wanted to dress up the outfit for a walk in the city, statement earrings would be a chic addition.

Think Pink


I got new shoes and they're PINK and... under £30. I mean you can't put a foot wrong with these on. I don't normally wear trainers opting for ankle boots normally, because I thought trainers looked too bulky and didn't really suit my sort of everyday style. However, I saw these and had to have them. They are compact, light and the perfect shade for Spring.

I've paired them with on-trend embroidered jeans from Topshop which are easy to wear with a slight playful twist on the classic black skinny jean. Also if you're like me and are always wearing black at least these add a bit of colour to your wardrobe for Spring without it being too overwhelming.
