Mango Madness

Head over heels for Mango this season. 

It could be because the monochrome palette appeals my aversion to colour, or the simplicity of the styling, or the heavy duty feel of the clothes, whatever it is, Mango is top of my wish list right now. 

Here are a few of the pieces I'm currently coveting:

From Left: Snake boots, white coat, navy roll neck, grey culottes, black bag, black hat.

From left: Floral dress, grey cardigan, silk top, burgundy roll neck, black boots, sequin skirt.

Midi Style

These last days of sunshine on holiday meant a final foray into bare legs and Birkenstocks until next spring. What better to pair with these famously ugly sandals than the prettiest of skirts I've found on the high street - this guipure lace skirt from River Island.

Falling for Fringing

Currently craving anything fringed, and the high street has taken this trend to heart with some amazing pieces available for under the £60 mark. See my picks below - although I couldn't resist breaking the £60 budget by throwing in this perfect blue suede skirt from TheOutnet....

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. 

All White Everything

I have a new folder on my computer, It's entitled 'next house' and it's full of pictures of things I love which I didn't do to this one and wish I had. Mainly making it totally Scandi and minimal. Renovating a Victorian terraced house I couldn't bring myself to strip out any of the character so ours is a far cry from minimalism. Oh well, will have to make do with saving pictures of all things ivory for my next move whenever that shall be.  

Until then...
