We’re back in business!

Wearing – Lacausa top, Ace & Jig skirt, Deluxe jumbo eyebags courtesy of Alexa Joy So – after a long hiatus due to work, then pregnancy, then parenthood – we’re up and running! Oh, and by “up” I mean up at multiple and random times of the night for feeds, and by “running” I mean staggering back into bed. Welcome to the new normal….

Light, linen and leather

Wearing – Me & Arrow linen shift, Mr Sparrow necklace, Belmore shoes Introducing a new love in my life – Belmore. The quest for local, handcrafted goodness caused me to stumble upon Belmore’s Instagram feed and I was instantly smitten. Honest, no-fuss aesthetic meets fine, quality craftsmanship. What makes Belmore even more unique is that their goods are manufactured in a 100-year old factory…

Go somewhere

Wearing – Jungmaven dress, Birkenstock sandals, A.J. Morgan sunglasses, Gorman bag Jumping a little ahead in time, New York was the last stop in our holiday. By this time, we’d roasted ourselves in the Californian desert and breathed in the pine-scented air of the Oregon forests, and now found ourselves on the other side of this vast country pounding concrete, dodging yellow taxis, and weaving…

Boy girl

Wearing – Ryder dress, Lee Coren clutch (in black), Converse sneakers A bit boy. A bit girl. A lot happy.

Sunshine on a rainy day

Wearing – Ryder top and skirt, thrifted denim shirt (picked up in Burma en route to Nyaung Shwe – for real!) Sunshine on a rainy day Makes my soul, makes my soul Trip, trip, trip away                                                        …

On turning 32

Wearing – Ryder shirt dress / Flowers – Fox & Rabbit If there’s one thing I’ve learnt in my not-very-extensive existence of 32 years, it’s that things generally don’t go as planned. I’m not saying that there is no plan, because most certainly with the eye of hindsight I can see that all things, the highest of highs and the deepest of heartaches, have…

Rana Clothing

So, remember last week when I got on my wee soapbox and went on a we-should-all-support-fair-trade rant? Well, let me introduce to you Rana Clothing. Hatched from the mind of Rebecca Dracup and designed by the hands of Angela Parker, Rana offers a range of ethically made office wear (although I reckon that skirt pictured would be pretty amazing on any day really!). When Rebecca graduated…

The hands that make

It’s no secret – I love clothes. So much so that at one stage of my life it wasn’t uncommon to be asked point blank, “So how much time do you spend shopping?” (Honestly, not that much, I’m a targeted shopper, I know what I wants and I gots to have it!). But certainly over the last two years, my views towards the all-hallowed, all-hated, and much-debated word fashion…

Summer travels

It’s been a while since we did one of these wishlists but I’ve been hoarding my leave for almost a whole year in order to take a massive family trip around Myanmar, the place my mum and dad hail from! We leave tomorrow so don’t mind me if I’m just a tad excited! This wishlist has been cultivated for maximal comfort, mobility, breathability and of…

Roll on summer

Wearing – Ryder dress, Naomi Murrell rings This dress is sheer summer-wear genius. A relaxed tee shape with peekaboo lace panels. A cheeky bright yellow undergarment. I think I’ve found “the one”.
