Two Ways to Wear | Oversized White Shirt | OOTD

Oversized shirts are one of those summer classics that come out each year and never get old. I have been looking for a big white silky one for a while as I felt it would be so versatile and easy to wear whether on the beach or out for the day. I found this floaty blouse on Asos a few weeks back and wear it pretty much everywhere. It's casual, loose-fitting style means I can throw it on over a top and jeans but it is also long enough to work as a light summer dress when buttoned up.

 I love that I can style it in a few different ways, so I thought I would show you how I would wear my oversized shirt in two different ways...

A weekend in Bath | Travel

Last weekend I went on a short break down south to the beautiful city of Bath, with Tom.

We spent most of the time sipping tea & eating cake in various tea rooms or braving the chilly February air to do some sightseeing.

 It was such an inspiring and historic city, I wanted to share with you what I got up to and some recommendations of places to go (mainly for tea or cake..)

DIY | Handmade Blanket Coat | Tutorial

The blanket coat is this autumn’s cosiest trend. 
These chunky capes seen in checks, stripes or aztec prints are great thrown on over any outfit come rain or shine. And seeing as it's highly unlikely I'll ever be able to afford the original Burberry Prosum monogrammed cape, seen on Cara and Jourdan in the AW14 show, I thought I’d have a go at making my own for a little cheaper…

I found this luxurious tweed woven material at my local fabric store and just had to make something using it. There was a black and white version too so I picked a couple of meters of each up. I experimented with a few design ideas using pattern paper. In the end this shape seemed to work the best and fitted how I wanted to it. If you want to make your own or want to see how I styled mine up read on …

A day trip to Bolton Abbey

I was lucky enough to spend the day wandering around the beautiful ruins of Bolton Abbey, in the Yorkshire Dales last week and loved it so much I thought I would share it with you.
