If you know me, you know I’m not a vintage shopper at heart. It took me a while to adjust to the idea of wearing something pre-loved or pre-worn, and I’ve never vintage shopped in my hometown of London. When I visited New York I made it my mission to introduce myself to the world of vintage, and I’m so glad I did. When you vintage shop it has a certain feel-good factor, finding a gem you know no-one else will have that’s unique is a definite high.
A great piece of knitwear can be a key item in many outfits, and there’s nothing quite like a chic jumper to make you feel cosy and on-trend this winter. Versatile items, knitwear can look as good worn with off-duty denim as it does layered over a silk slip dress teamed with Converse.
As much as I love makeup, skincare is where I will really spend my time (and money) investing in what’s right for me. Figuring out your ‘perfect’ skincare routine and finding the right products that work for you takes time and patience, don’t expect to see results overnight. Here’s a carefully curated list of products that are currently working for me, but remember our skin is always changing – so when your skin changes what you use will need to change too.
Autumn/winter may be my favourite time of year for dressing as it gives you an excuse to get all of your treasured coats and beloved knitwear out of the deep recesses of your wardrobe. A trench coat is an item that’ll be a lifelong companion and an inevitable wardrobe staple, it took me a long time to find my ideal mate but I believe I’ve found “the one” in this Topshop number.
