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!

Malaga with Swimwear 365

Jumpsuit, Dress, Stripe Bikini, Yellow Bikini: Swimwear365 

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!!!

Coat: c/o Bank, Blouse: Zara (current), Skirt: Zara (current), Shoes: Asos, Bag: c/o Bank
 Necklace: Mango, Hat: H&M, Bracelet: c/o Dorothy Perkins



Hey lovelies, I'm back from New York...it's been a while since my last post but I can't wait to show you my looks during my trip and what I've been up to. On arrival back to London the weather has been much colder than NY so this pink coat has been the perfect cover up for the breezy summer days. Keeping my look tailored for work I've styled it with a crystal pleated skirt and striped button down blouse (styled earlier here).

Hobbs SS14 Wish List

The SS14 Hobbs collection has finally landed and is looking glossier than ever...I for one am very excited! Back in November I attended their press day and was blown away with the new season pieces. You may remember me tweeting and instagramming my excitement. Those monochrome printed flats and mustard midi skirt are on the top of my wish list!

With modern tailoring and wardrobe saviours at the forefront, Hobbs has once again stayed true to the classic British girl. The collection consists of pastel hues in dusty pinks to icy blues, splashes of tangerine and leather. With a minimalistic vibe, structured culottes, tailored short suits and pleated midi skirts tick many of ss14 trends. The NW3 range is full of animal and botanical prints on bikers, tea dresses and city shorts dressed with pretty studded brogues keeping the collection playful and young.

A highlight for me was definitely the range of statement coats, from macs to dust coats to cocoon shapes, there is something for everyone. Style with a smart blazer underneath and your good to go! Be sure to check out the new season pieces here. If you're looking for affordable luxury for your work attire or a spring wedding, Hobbs will not disappoint.

Festive partywear

Top: H&M, Skirt: Coast, Clutch: Zara, Headband: Asos, Shoes: Duo, Lipstick: YSL
Perfume: Chanel No 5

With the festive season on the horizon, and parties slowly starting to fill my diary I decided to put together an outfit fit for the office yet fun and flirty for the bar. A great outfit always starts with a sexy pair of heels and these golden capped toe beauties are not only stylish but comfortable and have just launched as part of Duo's limited edition party collection. Duo specialise in on trend made to measure footwear, and cater for wider calves with boots in up to 21 calf sizes and shoes in 3 widths.

This red midi Coast skirt is the perfect lady like style for the season, add to this a slick of red lippy, a spritz of Chanel No 5 and contrasting prints from this crop top and clutch combo keeps the look effortless yet chic! With monochrome continuing into spring summer, you can keep reworking those staples in your closet.

Michael Kors green Hamilton
Micheal Kors pink Selma
Topshop orange pushlock
