Holiday Investments

I constantly try to inject colour into my wardrobe but it seems that I just can't get away from the staples of black, white and denim. 

This summer I stocked up on off-the-shoulder tops from Asos who seemed to have the best selection, then spent lazy days throwing them on with denim and sneakers. Colour will just have to come in the form of my stack of Dana Levy friendship bracelets...

Holiday Wardrobe

Although I'm back in the cold of London I thought I'd put up a couple more posts of what I wore on holiday last week when my days were filled with sunshine and my biggest stresses were choosing toppings on frozen yoghurt. 

Knit from Gap, Skirt Isabel Marant Etoile, Bag Grace Atelier De Luxe, Shoes ASOS, Sunglasses Bottega Veneta.

Grace Atelier De Luxe is a bag brand I was introduced to recently stocking the most beautiful bohemian summer bags, each hand crafted from the softest leathers. There is nothing like a perfect slouchy bucket bag to fill up with summer essentials. This one comes in a fringed version too which is at the top of my wish list along with their ikat clutch bags.

The asos sandals I'm wearing are the best thing I bought all summer, I've worn them to death. They're similar to the ancient greek sandals I really wanted but cost £20 instead of £150 and are so comfortable I've just thrown them on with everything. 

Midi Skirts - Holiday Style

My new found love for midi skirts has extended to my holiday wardrobe and the fact that this ASOS one I bought just before I left doubles up as a sort of accordion when you walk, well that just makes me love it all the more. The boy thinks I look like a mormon but I think I look like an incredibly cool grandma. Which is what we all want to look like on holiday right?

Ankle Swingers

Im pulling out all the stops during this heat wave and taking my new Schuh sparkly sandals for a ride.   Never has one girl had such disco-ball feet before, it really is true love.

My ankles are also bright'n'breezy in these black culottes, Ive pretty much lived in jeans for the last 6 months so a change in lower body shape is refreshing. 

Tshirt Acne, Trousers ASOS, Shoes Schuh.

Quadruple Denim

How much denim is too much denim? I think we can probably safely assume this outfit has taken it one cotton-twill step too far.

Leather and Tweed

Leather, tweed, denim - combining textures makes a simple outfit so much more interesting. 

I'm shooting all week so comfort is my number one focus, and what could be more comfortable than the trust old Converse shoe...
