My plans to create a series of features on more fashionable looks started a long time ago. However, finally getting off the ground took some planning.
The aim of Dani’s Little Book of Fashion is to dissect looks into wearable chunks, that will work for the person carrying it, whatever their personal style.
Seven Dials is a very cute place in London just off Covent Garden with some amazing shops.
On the 9th May, they held a fabulous shopping event and I was really happy to be invited by the lovelies from Sister Is PR to their VIP tent, before the trends talk began, to have a (maybe some) King Bloom cocktail, a Cawston Press amazing rhubarb soft drink and Propercorn popcorn (fuelling my Vanilla & Coconut flavour addiction).
So everyone talks about how painful heels are. Well, some might be a little bit – and there is a trade off as heels are just, well, awesome.
Now, no one talks about flat shoes pain. They are meant to be comfortable. Right. But I will let you in to my little secret: I found comfort on the amazing Scholl Party Feet Invisible Gel Sore Spots.
Wow, it’s been a long time since a post an outfit entry. Laziness. No other excuse. Oh, wait, there is… I always get so fed up with the winter that towards the end I cannot be bothered with the outfits anymore… it’s half not making an effort and the other half not finding them interesting anymore.
But as the new season begins (to try) to come… well…. fresh outfits are fun.
Here are some from the last few weeks (maybe months!):
Flowery trouser from H&M, black cape from Boohoo, black shoes from Christian Louboutin, handbag from Kate Spade.

Ooooh, Christian Louboutin. Not only he is the master behind my favourite shoes, but he is also a charming human being.
No wonder women fall in love with his shoes; after seeing him talk, I can certainly say he does manage to transmit his captivating personality to footwear. If I was a fan before, this talk took it to another level.
The sun is teasing us – it is actually making appearances but the super chill in the air means my body is still in a wintery mood.
However, my mind is saying GO! to spring!
When talking about beauty, I think it is pretty fundamental that we talk about all the accessories.
Washbags are very much essential, as it makes sure you carry your lovely beauty arsenal everywhere.
I first noticed metallic tattoos about a year and a half ago… there weren’t many around but seeing some girls in Vegas wearing them in August really made me want to wear some.
Well, for Spring/Summer15, there is no shortage and Seekers of the Sun is a great choice amongst so many.
As you probably know by now, I love a bit of nail art that is not too out there. I like it discreet, elegant and a bit more mature, as I am not that young anymore.
Temporary tattoos we around for the last summer, but they seem to be going mainstream this year. Paperself, the lovely lash brand, has launched a line called Tattoo Me, which has, amongst other, many great jewellery designs.
