Mink Pink - Crochet



It's such a shame that I have no more festivals to go to this summer…("Big Sigh") but that doesn't mean I can't wear crochet…right? Right.  I had been eyeing up this Mink Pink crochet top for a very long time, but I just didn't have £95 to buy it…..until last week. Mink Pink is by far one of my favourite designers, and my number one place to head when i'm looking for that festival / boho vibe! I could probably list about 4 or 5 Mink Pink items that are on my current 'wish list'.  Back to the top…..It's made 'from an open weave crochet', has a slouchy cut with a laid-back, vintage style……perfect. Buy HERE

I have some great news.  In 2 weeks I will become the proud owner of a French bulldog!! Ahhh!  After months and months of discussing such a BIG commitment, we decided to go for it, and put down a deposit. We already have the name sorted….but i'll keep that a surprise!

From now on, every time I get a new outfit…...the dog get's one too!

Crochet Cardigan


I’m going to keep it ‘short but sweet’….a bit like me! PAH

Is this not the most perfect crochet cardigan?  I bought it from my favourite online shop Rat&Boa for about £30.  Seriously, I love everything on their website. In my eyes, anything crochet is perfect for a festival. Its super chic and gives off that laid back, boho vibe! Perfect.

I’m off to Shaka Zulu in Camden on Friday. Surely it’s nice to venture out of ‘east’ London once in a while?

Vintage - Ombre Cardigan


There’s something really cool about vintage fashion.  Unlike trends that come and go, vintage will stay around forever.  A few weeks ago I was having a look on eBay, and came across this vintage ‘ombre’ cardigan.  I was over the moon to see that no one was ‘watching’ it so I decided to start my bidding war at 99p! A few hours later, and £5.50 down, it was mine.  When wearing vintage there are no rules…..anything goes, which suits my style down to a T!

In a few weeks….the 5th may to be precise, my friend is putting on a festival just outside London.  The theme is ‘Indian summer’ so any great ideas on what to wear, please send them my way.  I’m thinking bindis, sequins, and ganesh….hmmmm!

I decided to ‘spice’ this post up and share with you that one song I've been listening to over and over and over again.  If this doesn't get you excited for summer then nothing will. Enjoy.

Vintage - Yukon Parka



Just a quick post on this a.m.a.z.i.n.g coat that I’m wearing.

I’m not sure if I mentioned it but it was my birthday last weekend and this was my outfit number 1.  To kick start the weekend, I went and had breakfast at Shoreditch House, followed by shopping on brick lane. Some of you may not know, but Brick Lane is full of vintage shops, vintage markets and one off boutiques. It’s perfect, and anyone coming to London, I suggest you go here.

Back to the coat.  I bought this ‘Yukon’ parka from a vintage shop called Rokit. It looks so unique with little blue flowers embroidered on the bottom, and a fur trimmed hood with fur pom-poms on the hood strings.  It is truly amazing, so when I realised it was only £21, I grabbed it with both hands.
