There is nothing better than heading on a holiday in early Spring! I recently went to Marrakech with my sister for a week and had the most relaxing time... much needed after the rainy weather in London. Whenever I know I'm heading abroad, the dreaded question of swimwear pops up in my mind. Of course as every girl, I always want a new bikini or swimsuit but having larger boobs and a small back 32G means that finding comfy swimwear is a task in its own. For my holiday to marrakech I collaborated with Figleaves and chose a few styles of swimwear and kaftans. As women we always have our favourite bikinis that travel with us on every holiday and ends up being the go to twinset that you live in. However when my Figleaves pieces arrived and I tried them on, EVERY single item fit perfectly. I was literally in shock. The bikini tops fit by bra size and are super supportive and stable. I went for this black eyelet underwired style with matching briefs, the Aruba twist front top with high waisted briefs and being an addict to bright colours of course I also chose this colourful Festival Crop top alongside the matching high waisted briefs.  To cover up I fell in love with this Maryan Melhorn Fiesta kaftan, 100% silk, literally felt so smooth against my skin, and was the perfect piece to lounge in after my Moroccan massage. 

Although I went for a weeks break, the weather was not the best at only 20C compared to 30C the week before we arrived. Despite this I had the best time ever! We visited the YSL museum and Majorelle Gardens which if you are intending to go to Marrakech anytime soon, I urge you to visit. With all the pink buildings in the city, the gardens intense colour and vibrancy provides a breath of fresh air and the best back drops.  Plus you will be mesmerised by the Souks as I did, wanting to take everything home. 

Thanks again to Figleaves for my sassy swimwear. Definitely looking forward to purchasing their lingerie and nightwear too!

Last week I went on a trip to Malaga in Spain for a winter holiday in the sun. If you follow me on Instagram you will remember my recent holiday to Jamaica, however after 2 months I was definitely getting the holiday blues......so another vaca was needed! 

And to help me with my wardrobe staples, the lovely team over at Swimwear365 sent me some of my favourite pieces from their website. If you haven't heard of the brand before then they are the go to brand for any holiday as they basically provide you swimwear and beachwear 365 days of the year!

I chose outfits 4 outfits starting off with this gorgeous paisley playsuit which is super soft and the perfect piece to wear over a bikini. I styled the playsuit with beaded flats and a boater hat and matching straw bag for a day to a Spanish vineyard. When abroad, for me comfort is key during the day and this playsuit was just that. Swimwear365 have a tonne of amazing bikinis, so whittling my bikini choice down to 2 styles was a task in itself. I decided on this striped bikini, a great way to make a statement on the beach and this yellow bikini top and briefs. My final choice of attire was this simple yet chic bardot dress which I knew would work so many ways for the day with flats over my bikini and at night with a pair of statement heels!

I had such a relaxing and much needed break, thanks again Swinwear 365 for my holiday looks!!!

Over a month ago you will recall my trip to Paris and the amazing hotel experience I had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Splendid Etoile. This cute romantic hotel is what I now call my parisian secret as it's centrally located in the 17th arrondissement within walking distance from the Champs E'lysees and Charles des Gualle Etoile metro.

On arrival the staff were exceptionally welcoming with a bottle of champagne, truffles and snacks which went down a treat after travelling from the UK. I stayed in their corner suite which had sensational views of the Arc D'Triomphe and a balcony that wraps around the apartment. The room consisted of duck egg blue and hints of orange decor with a large closet in the hall way, ideal for a fashionable array of outfits. The marbled en-suite also had access to the balcony and views of paris. 

Along with a restaurant, bar, free wifi and dry cleaning available it has all you need for a comfortable stay. I can truly say that this hotel is by far one of my favourite destinations to stay in Paris. A special thank you to all the staff at Hotel Splendid Etoile as you truly made my experience in Paris a most memorable one.

Blazer: Mango (old) , Blouse: c/o Primark, Skirt: Topshop, Brooch: Chanel, Necklace: Zara (old) Bag: Chanel, Sunglasses: Vintage, Shoes: Zara



If you already follow me on instagram, you will remember me posting about recently filming with Spice TV featuring in a documentary aound a blogger's life. This is what I wore as well as 4 more outfit changes and filming in the cold. I can't wait for it to air later on in the year...very exciting!

This floral midi skirt is just too cute for words! It comes with a matching crop top but I opted for the skirt alone and styled it with a striped blouse from Primark and a striped blazer. If you are thinking about clashing prints then the best way to do this is to make sure that the size of prints are a slightly different size to distinguish between.

Coat: H&M trend, Culottes: Topshop, Top: Miss Selfridge, Blazer: Mango (old)
Bag: Mulberry, Necklace: Mango, Shoes: Zara (current), Sunglasses: Vintage


One trend I'm absolutely loving this season is culottes, but somehow I have found it hard to find a pair that fit seamlessly. These Topshop pair are the perfect fit, no baggy frontage, below the knee and high waisted... perfect combination for an hourglass figure! Pairing with a yellow crop top and coat keeps my outfit bright and summer ready and the addition of a monochrome blazer ensures the yellow tones are subtly separated!

Waistcoat: c/o Betty Jackson, Skirt: c/o Preen, Top: Oasis, Bag: Zara, Shoes: Asos (similar) Necklace: c/o Dorothy Perkins, Earrings: c/o Topshop, Hat: New York boutique


These green shoes have seem to become more of a staple in my wardrobe as of late, which is why I recently purchased these orange pair too. I love the combination of green and pink and so when I spotted this Preen skirt at the Debenhams' press day, I knew exactly what shoes I wanted to pair it with. This zipped skirt also has a matching biker jacket which you can buy here, it would be the perfect summer work suit worn with a white button down blouse. Now the sun has finally come out I love wearing waistcoats again as they are the perfect cover up, whilst still keeping my look chic!

Happy Monday!

Dress c/o Emma Louise London, Coat: H&M, Glasses c/o Crosseyes London, Tights c/o Wolford
Necklace: Zara (similar), Bag: Mulberry, Shoes: Zara (current), Gold cuff: Whistles


I recently received this gorgeous shift dress from current label love, Emma Louise London who has some amazing pieces in her SS14 range including multi coloured popcorn prints, mosaic patterns, through to playsuits, blouses, and tailored trousers. Allowing the digital prints to stand at the forefront, Emma really encapsulates the playful, chic, yet sophisticated style we Londoners like! Browsing through the website, this shift dress with it's bright kaleidoscopic print immediately caught my attention as it's full of colour, perfect for summer and in person has the silkiest touch against the body. Styled with a bright yellow coat and a contrasting red bag I was ready to head out for a day of press events around London. This dress literally got so many compliments, I simply can't wait to go bare legged and wear it in the warmer months to come!

You will notice that I am also wearing a new set of specs courtesy of quirky Danish brand Crosseyes, who recently opened their first ever store outside of Denmark here in London. I attended a valentines event they hosted back in February and was blown away by the brand ethos. Mixing old fashion craft with a modern approach towards design and quality as well as new frames every month ensures the brand's uniqueness within eyewear and optometry. For those of you who wear glasses, you will love their concept as it's simple with clear pricing from £85 (no strength) and sunglasses starting from £95. All you have to do is turn up for your complimentary eye test, choose your limited edition frame and you're good to go! And if you decide to go with a pair of sunnies, they even have a choice of different tints which is included in the price. I opted for these bold two-tone geeky looking specs which are lightweight and extremely comfortable to wear all day and are perfect to add that extra chicness to my outfits. If you're looking for a new pair of fashionable specs without the hefty price tag, then you should definitely pay Crosseyes a visit!

Hope you all had a lovely Easter!
