Every weekend I tell Jeff that I’d like to go to Columbia Road on Sunday to buy flowers for the vase on our mantelpiece, and every weekend (at least every weekend for the past 6 months!) I’ve either ended up with other plans or snoozing till noon. But last Sunday it all worked out: we … Continue reading

What I Wore: ASOS maxi cardigan for an office look
Oversized is a look I’ve been loving lately, so for autumn I’ve decided to upgrade my wardrobe with a lush maxi cardigan, deep blue denim boyfriend shirt and chunky loafers. Cosy and warm – while still smart enough for the office! – here I come… Continue reading
Sushi fest at Murakami London
In case you didn’t know, sushi is my favourite dish. While some people can never say no to pizza or chocolate, my downfall is sushi. Maki, hosomaki, nigiri, temaki, gunkan… it’s all great in my book! So when blogger friend Mitra invited me as her guest for a review she was writing about Murakami, a sushi … Continue reading
Introducing: Kiehl’s x Tinie Tempah for MTV Staying Alive Foundation
If you follow me over on Instagram you’ll know I posted a picture about this on Friday, but I was so excited about the charity cause I wanted to write a post about it, too! Last Friday I received this special face cream and message from Kiehl’s, which celebrates the Kiehl’s and MTV Staying Alive Foundation partnership for 2015.The … Continue reading
Get the look: everyday hairstyle for curly / wavy hair
I’m pretty lucky that my hair can go curly easily (though it’s naturally wavy with an uneven curl, so it does need a bit of help looking good!) and also looks great straight. (While I don’t own straighteners, I love when my stylist, Ryan, agrees to straighten it post-haircut because it just looks so different!) … Continue reading
AW15 Trends: Tan Suede Skirt, Off Duty Style

If you’ve been reading my blog this week you’ll know that I’ve been challenging myself to style this skirt for three occasions in ways I feel … Continue reading
AW15 Trends: Tan Suede Skirt, Going Out Style
Tan suede skirts are proving to be one of the new ‘it’ items this autumn / winter, and of course I wanted to try one out in my wardrobe! (Confession: I bought 5 different styles to try on at home before settling on this one…) But considering I didn’t have anything this colour in my wardrobe already, … Continue reading
AW15 Trends: Tan Suede Skirt, Office Style
Each season I find myself lusting after at least one new trend, and this AW I’ve been lusting after a tan suede skirt. I’ve already got a black leather skirt which has been an AW staple for the past couple of years (see a look featuring it here!), and with only one other skirt in my wardrobe (a totally … Continue reading
Saturday Lunch at Babylon, Kensington Roof Gardens
Babylon at Kensington Roof Gardens has been on Jeff and my bucket list for a while now, so a couple of weeks ago we decided to get dressed up and treat ourselves to Saturday lunch. It’s not something we normally do – most Saturdays we’ll be found lounged about the flat in our pjs! – but … Continue reading
Bright Young Things Film Club
Last week I attended my first Bright Young Things Film Club event, courtesy of a press pass with my friend Mitra, to see the short film The Phone Call and the full length documentary Art and Craft. I hadn’t heard of BYT Film Club before Mitra told me about them, but I’m really glad she did because the night was … Continue reading
