Oh, how I’ve been enjoying the weather…summer in London makes me forget, just for a short period of time, all the misery of winter! And that’s what I’ve been wearing to face the warmer days:
Black pencil skirt from Forever 21, black off the should frill crop top from eBay, black and gold peep-toes from Zara, belt from Primark, necklace and bracelet from New Look, rings from Sobral, H&M and Primark.
You probably noticed that there has Magnum has been causing a buzz this year – it is their 25th anniversary and they’ve been having a ball celebrating it.

Yet another celeb jumping on the designer bandwagon. Although I am rather sceptical about this kind of thing, I kinda like Olivia Palermo (the girls is stylish!) and if the shoes that come out are as lovely as sketches that have been released, I think this has the potential to be a good one.
The settling of the new season brings about so much inspiration! All the bits I have been buying for months and have been unable to wear are finally starting to creep out of my closet and make it to the streets – and the blog!
Here are the latest outfits:
Flowery crop top from H&M, black court shoes from Christian Louboutin, eye clutch from Lulu Guinness, belt from Primark, bracelets from New Look, rings from Sobral, H&M and Primark.
I’ve been trying so hard to be summery and wearing floaty skirts whenever I can. The weather has been mild, but not glorious enough to go all out…
Keep hoping! This outfit selection contains a mix of “I wish I could wear this without tights” and “I am preparing myself for summer” outfits.

One of these days I was talking to people how I became so obsessed with makeup, style and shoes so I started thinking and went back to my childhood, when I used to smash my aunt’s Ciane’s eyeshadow palettes (sorry auntie) and smear my aunt’s Tiana’s lipsticks on my face, while they weren’t around.
The technique was the same: wait until they were distracted chatting with family or going over their daily and go over their dressing tables and pounce, in the dark, getting hold of anything I could, quickly.
It’s been a while. Obviously, I haven’t been walking around naked; a mix of lack of time to photograph, uninspiring cold days where I couldn’t be bothered and that emotional problem solving kinda got in the way.
My wardrobe is starting to get packed with some lovely spring goods, but so far the legs haven’t seen the daylight in London. Hurry, while I still have a tan!

Madly in love with Mad in England
My relationship with my glasses has blossomed in the past few years. Forward back to the teenager who wanted to wear glasses but had a perfect vision, than forward to the late-20’s girl who found out she needed glasses for reading/computer and thought it was a sign of getting old, getting the most discreet frames possible, I can say it came a long way. I now love my glasses – and Specsavers really helps me match them to my personality.
Glasses are really important – they are on your face every day, but somehow, the thought that goes with choosing them, is usually less than choosing clothes, or shoes that we might wear less often than glasses. And that is why I loved this showcase – it showed glasses as fashion accessories all throughout.
It is no secret I feel more in my element over spring/summer. Although I like the elegance the winter brings, nothing beats a happy, floaty summer outfit.
This post seems to be mostly about going out – there is just one work outfit included! I love dressing up, and always make an effort when going out!
Been feeling a bit blue lately, so that might explain the huge gap between outfit posts. Spring will certainly bring a hug wardrobe excitement and no doubt I will be photographing and posting more outfits! Cannot wait!
