I’m trying a New Thing. That thing is ‘to look more put-together’ and generally make more of an effort more of the time. There’s no point envying chic, well-dressed women if … Continue readingtres chic.
Trousers are my jam, so when the new Prima/Elvi collection launched, I knew I had to nab them. I just love the cream and gold colour palette of their spring/summer … Continue readingfool’s gold.
Today’s outfit is a dress and coat I’ve had for ages, and a pair of boots I haven’t. Now I’m just blogging on my own terms, rather than feeling like … Continue readingstars and shoes.

I can’t stop wearing leopard. I looked at the first page of my blog and every post but one has some form of leopard print in it. I feel chic, … Continue readingsheer leopard.
