OOTD: A Magical Journey
to my parent’s house in Norfolk, for some rest and relaxation. London is
wonderful but sometimes you end up missing the vast fields of the
English countryside. I may have grown up in a city (Norwich) but we
were only ever a 10 minute drive from the countryside. So whilst we
had a change of scenery, I wanted to take the opportunity and shoot
some outfit photos.
so powerful that you take on a whole new identity when you’re wearing
it; and my new shawl from Oasap does just that. When I’m wearing this
I feel halfway between a witch and a New York landlady – don’t ask.
It’s a pretty magical piece, that I can easily see becoming a Summer
staple in my wardrobe. As for the t-shirt I’ve displayed so brazenly
above, it was a rather odd purchase for me. I wanted something basic
with a difference. I guess I certainly got that. This is truly the mullet
of the t-shirt world – work up front, party in the back. The
cut-out design is meant to resemble angel wings, as no doubt it would have…on someone who is about 5 inches taller than me. Instead they
end up looking like I’ve tried the paper snowflake trick on my
t-shirt. But hey, you can’t blame a girl for trying. I kept it simple on my bottom half, with black leggings and boots. Boots and leggings that
ended up covered in mud, after my Black Labrador decided I didn’t
quite scream countryside chic.
OOTD: Little Paris in London
Wish List: Persun Mall
I do love a good wishlist, so of course I jumped at the chance to do one this time round.
After choosing a few items I loved, I realised that I’d started to style an entire outfit.
Little by little it was coming together and it was full of some gorgeous items.
At first look, it would seem I was inspired by the recent festival trend going around.
Even though I’m not a festival fan this outfit and these items probably would be perfect for one.
Sunglasses, bracelet, shawl jacket, dark denim shorts, tan shoulder bag and ankle boots – check!
Persun Mall is similar to a lot of other China based online brands doing the rounds right now.
You’ll find affordable, varied items of a decent quality that can be shipped worldwide.
I’m looking forward to working with them!

OOTD: Hear Me Roar!
Introducing: Playn Eyewear @ Boxpark
Playn eyewear are back at Boxpark, and I went along to check them out. Now before I get too far ahead of myself, I should probably introduce the brand. Playn Eyewear is a German company founded by the designer Denis Beyer. They design and sell their own unique sunglasses and glasses frames. They first came to Boxpark in Shoreditch in 2013, and now they’re back!
When I visited with V.A to check out their frames, I was impressed with their clean-cut feel. The whole store felt very serene, and cool – the perfect place to pick out a pair of sunnies. Now I just got a new pair of glasses and sunglasses, however I was still keen to try everything on. I know, I’m terrible, but the range of frames on offer are just too tempting. I fell head over heels with the Miami Vice – Sarah frames (pink gradient) as soon as I put them on. You can see me wearing them above, and I like to think they suit me pretty well. It’s the amazingly subtle rose tint on the lenses that drew me in though. It makes everything look so romantic and fun! These are the perfect instagram filter…for life. I can definitely see myself wearing these whilst lounging in London Fields with friends, or browsing Brick Lane’s street food stalls. Of course you can wear them outside of East London, if you fancy.
Spring has brought out the sunshine so there’s no better time than now to grab a pair of sunglasses. Or maybe you feel your prescription specs are looking a bit dull, and you could do with an update?
Head over to Playn to browse their frames and see if something catches your eye!
