    Saint and Sofia: Ethical, Luxury Fashion with a Twist

    (Gifted items/ Affiliate) The Saint and Sofia style is pretty much perfect for me. Timeless, easy-to-wear designs, comfy, quality fabrics and neutral shades, with a lot of black! It’s laid back, rock-chick-chic that doesn’t try too hard. I think it’s effortlessly cool and I love it. Every Saint and Sofia piece is designed right here in London and manufactured both in-house and in Europe. With fabric sourced from family owned fabric mills located in Turkey, Italy and Portugal. Natural, sustainable materials are used wherever possible, with fabrics like Merino, Econyl (a type of regenerated nylon), Organic Cotton and Regenerated Cotton featuring heavily. In addition to using sustainable materials, Saint and…

    Black Jeans – An A/W Staple | Ad

    When I was a teenager, my wardrobe consisted of about 90 percent black clothing. Black tops, black jeans, little black dresses, black coats, even black socks- when it came to my clothing, the darker the garment, the more likely I was to wear it. Fast forward a decade or two and these days, while I no longer fear colour, my black clothing items still remain my staple pieces that I reach for more often than not. I’m particularly fond of black jeans and skirts because they can easily be dressed up or down and complement virtually anything I fancy wearing up top. I pretty much live in black jeans in Autumn/ Winter…

    The Blanket Wrap Cardigan

    I bought this Blanket Wrap from New Look last week and I’ve pretty much been living in it ever since. A little blanket with arm holes and pockets – it’s like the fashionable version of the snuggie. It goes with me to the shop, hangs out with me while I’m working and snuggles up with me on the couch. This particular one is 100% acrylic (no cashmere here) but it’s soft, warm and cosy. I chose this one because black and grey are pretty much my staple colours and I wasn’t keen on a really busy pattern, though apparently I do look a bit like Clint Eastwood in The Good, The…

    Lamb 1887 Clutches

    Lamb 1887 is all about quality and affordability – two words you won’t often find in the same sentence. The brand is the brainchild of Charlotte Lamb (cutest name ever?) who wanted to create stylish, upmarket handbags, clutches and more that are accessible and inexpensive but with a luxurious edge – and that she did! Here are my picks from the range of clutches at Lamb 1887. The Cap Ferrat Clutches feature a metal clasp, delicate chain shoulder strap and an oh-so-cute metal Lamp 1887 logo. The Audrey Clutch features soft grey and coral leather that contrasts rather nicely and a twist lock clasp embossed with the very sweet lamb logo. The Audrey Clutch is…

    Outfit Ideas – Casual to Classy with Yumi

    My name is Amy Marie & I blog on behalf of Scarlett Fashion. The lovely Hannah has kindly allowed me to guest post on her blog today and I hope you enjoy the post I’m sharing. When I used to think of the brand Yumi, I associated it with quirky patterns, cute scarves and knitted dresses that I favoured in my last year of college/first year in uni. I particularly liked them because they seemed to favour owls which are my favourite animals. Recently I’ve discovered that Yumi has taken a new direction, a direction I seem to be more drawn to now I’m in my mid twenties. Their newest…
