Ah yes, that glorious sunny, happy lull between spring and summer when you’d usually be buying cute new swimming cossies, desperately trying to find denim shorts that cover your bum cheek creases, and hunting out evening holiday dresses that are best accessorized with a tan and a large Aperol Spritz. Alas, this is in fact 2020 and everything is looking, ahem, a little bit different. So I thought I’d share my top summer 2020 fashion trends – as spotted from my favourite Instagram fashion muses, and online shopping spots. And the best thing about them all is that they’ll look bloody fantastic on ..read more

Hello and happy almost-February! I thought I’d share a handful of the current fashion trends creeping onto my radar by the way of both Instagram grids, and my fave online shops. They’re all super easy to wear, probably things you already have lurking about the back of your wardrobe (you know the things that fell of a dud hanger about 18 months ago and have now become one with the scarves, dust and discarded clothes tags also hiding in there) and look v chic on everyone. So without further ado, here they are…   PUFF SLEEVE TIERED DRESSES. The trend started last summer with that Zara midi dress ..read more

Hello 2020 you wonderful creature littered with endless possibilities, dreams and ambitions. To celebrate the start of a new decade, I’ve created a shopping edit of my fave fashion buys on the digital high street right this minute (any excuse, eh!).

I’ve already ordered the La Redoute white pleated skirt, having been on the hunt for one for over a year, so fing ..read more

HELLO it is that time of year again. I’ll keep things simple. Below you’ll find a list of all my favourite retailers who are offering Black Friday deals (or Cyber Week deals, it basically starts earlier and earlier every year). Some of the links will be affiliate which means I’ll make about 20p off your Topshop party dress purchase, and some will be bog standard links. I’ll update this post with the latest deals over the next few days, so I guess all that’s left for me to say is HAPPY SHOPPING.   & Other Stories. You can get 20% off with code ‘NOIR20’ until 30th November. Shop here. Acces ..read more

In a shock twist that will shock not one of you, this autumn special is rammed full of plenty of leopard print. It’s also packed with bright jewel tones, midi length beauties and some very excellent and very sparkly hair accessories. The pieces currently on my hit list involve that pink Boden bag.

If you follow me on Instagram you’ll know that I do a weekly round-up of my fave fashion finds every Monday evening on stories – alternating between themed (midi skirts, swimwear, wedding guest dresses etc) and new-in pieces. So I thought, y’know what sounds like jolly good fun? DOING AN EXTRA BIG HG TEN ON THE BLOG. And not just ten pieces, let’s make it fifty! So here we are. My plan is to do this once a month – a bumper round-up that links to The HG Ten on Instagram. And this month’s theme is holiday fashion. I ..read more
