Finding My Inner Grunge

Since having my hair cut my style has been a little mixed, I have lost a little of what I was, who I am.

It has also given me an opportunity to try and restyle myself, so I have been looking for some gorgeous pieces to put together .

They are quite grungy in places, but I love the first look with this gorgeous mustard coloured dress and purple boots, I think it looks great and teamed with a cream jacket makes it oober casual.

The dress on it's own would be beautiful with a pair of plain heels and the jacket and boots are both key pieces to a wardrobe.

Dress by Orla Kiely for People Tree
Blazer by Reiss
Boots by Dr Martens


Next, well as everyone loves a black outfit, I thought these all go super well together, I know I am including Sun Jellies again but they are perfect for a busy mum on the run, great for rain or shine and go with everything.

This is a great smart causal look for town and could easily be made glam for a night out with heels.

Trousers from Reiss
Jacket from People Tree
Vest by Hello Apparel from Southwood Stores
Shoes by Sun Jellies


Although the Reiss trousers do seem pricey they are a key piece, I bought a pair of work trousers from them a few years ago, they still look as good as the day I bought them.

I am sure these outfits aren't to everyone's tastes especially the first one but having tried the boots on they aren't the same as normal DM's the leather is super soft and they are a great purple colour.

A Colourful Match Made in Heaven

Yesterday I posted a picture of myself in my new Hello Apparel jumper from Southwood Stores and my Sun Jellies and the response was amazing, so I wanted to show you just how lovely they are and perfect they are for each other.

The blue jumper and cyan jellies totally work together and are a perfect spring combination.


As are the green and red, these beautifully bright colours totally complement each other and I think they'd look great paired with jeans or a skirt for the cooler summer days and evenings.



And for those who aren't so into their bright colours how about the black colour way?


And finally if black is your thing but you like a pop of colour then how about the black jumper with any of the sun jellies range?


I love the way these look together and as the days get warmer but not quite warm enough for skirts and a t-shirt this is the perfect alternative.

Mothers Day Treats

So this is more a post about the things I would like for mothers day, a little inspiration for my children/hubby.

And with so many wonderful things around this is possibly going to be a long post…

This was on my Christmas list but sadly Santa must have missed it, I love the colour and would love this for popping on with skinny jeans and for cooler summer evenings (plus the colour almost matches my Sun Jellies) gorgeous Hello jumper from Southwood Stores, £40.00.


This seems to be my mantra at the moment, so I would love this print from Bodie and Fou, £35.00.


I have a real penchant for flamingos and adore this tea towel from Cuckooland, £12 but well worth it to have hanging in the kitchen.


And finally, even though I already have a pair of these gorgeous Sun Jellies shoes I definitely need more and I love these silver glitter ones, perfect to go with everything but I also like the fluro pink, yellow and the red, only £16.00.

I really love this dress from Tigerlilly Quinn's shop, I love foxes and this is just gorgeous and really reasonably priced too at just £28.00.


And finally because I cannot get enough of this smell I would really love a little pot of this loveliness from The Body Shop, it smells so gorgeous and I love lip balm, a snip at £4.00 ;)

So here is my little list of goodies, what have you found that you would love to receive?
