There is nothing more Chic than easy elegant shoes. Gorgeous flat polished ballerinas with mesh, velvet or dazzling rhinestone designs. The simplest way to enhance a basic outfit. It's almost like a feeling of freedom after Summers of stack heels. I'm obsessed with mesh pumps. Alaia created this widely copied, leather-trimmed, breathable design, and after plenty of window shopping, I've lost count of the number of times I've been stopped and asked for details. I wanted something soft for walking around the City these have been my most worn. This metallic gold is chic. From Net-a-Porter also ..read more

Luxurious linen is a must-have for summer, adding elegance, panache, and appreciating coolness. This timeless material is an essential addition to the wardrobe every year. Linen trousers and waistcoats are the coolest choice to elevate a summer tan. This palette effortlessly exudes chic for both casual and special occasions. Pair this with a vintage Birkin & my trusty Zara leather moc-croc flats to add texture against the softness of cotton. I rocked loose-fitting linen trousers and a jacket borrowed from Mr. Chic. I initially aimed to flaunt my stunning shoes, but those striking trouser ..read more

With summer arriving in London, I am excited to wear shorts and step out. The stores are filled with different lengths and styles, and despite concerns about varicose veins and pale winter legs, I'm ready to go. I love the gold button detail on the new shorts at H&M. It gives them an almost sailor-like look. When I arrived at lunch, my companion complimented me on the mini skirt. The length is perfect, and I’m practically dancing in these net shoes. The essential pocket shorts from Ralph Lauren. I love having 6 pockets to choose from. The waistcoat trend seems to be continuing into the s ..read more

After my mother passed away in April, I found it challenging to continue presenting myself to the world in the bold, vibrant colours that I had always preferred. As I engaged in various activities, I realized that adopting a simple, classic style with basic and bold elements was the best way for me to move forward. The most straightforward choice was black, perfectly suiting my mood of determination and heavy heart. Fortunately, I kept key pieces from my City days: a classic Tuxedo and well-cut trousers. Taking a deep breath, I began to pull neutrals and unearth forgotten gems. Upon arriving ..read more

I was determined to tackle the task that I had been putting off for quite some time. May Day was my chosen date to confidently bid farewell to the winter season and take charge of organizing the clothes that had been sent to me for social media promotion. Although the task was daunting, I took a deep breath and confidently dived into the task of donating, saving or binning, excess. Over the past 3 years, I have worked with so many brands, boxes arriving of beautiful clothing sometimes worn just for the photo or video I hadn’t processed the room it would take up. The incident that caused my ..read more

Does anyone else find it difficult to find the right store to buy clothes from? It feels like a game of retail Russian roulette. Recently, I was surprised to receive an email from someone asking if an outfit I had posted was from H&M, because she couldn't locate the jacket. I could not find the receipt. The jacket was passed to me in the dressing room as the assistant assured me the cut would complement my shape. The fit was perfect with cuff placement that did not require me to roll them. When I wore the jacket and a high-waisted pencil skirt to a Sunday brunch. I was ecstatic that the ..read more

I cannot recall a time when denim was not part of my wardrobe, dressed up or down no other fabric has the versatility or charm to transcend into every season. Denim is timeless, but the way we wear it evolves. Pairing vintage flare jeans with a new-season denim vest, from Rita Ora, give a fresh and classic look that doesn't try too hard. The trends in denim fashion keep changing with the seasons. Personally, I am currently obsessed with large turn-ups, although they may not work well with flats. However, pairing them with kitten heels is my new obsession. I am glad that I took the time to ch ..read more

I’ve had enough of this Winter & I’m ready to move forward. It’s time to put away my Uggs, Wellies & over the knee boots. Normally, I would be embracing the various Fashion Week trends this time of year, but instead, I’m left feeling jealous, old & rather envious. The catwalks are brimming with young girls who have slim, undeveloped figures and an unparalleled freshness that only youth can bring. Their unlined faces are stunning, with any grey hair being only dyed highlights. I felt frustrated, envious, and depressed as I pondered the discarded fashion magazines scattered around m ..read more
