Pinafore, Pumpkins and Paisley


So I may not have dressed up for Halloween this year, but I did get to carve some pumpkins with my boss's kids! Also a few other seasonally appropriate pictures from my instagram - dried flowers, and a pumpkin coloured Figaro.

Oxford Comma






I spent this extremely chilly Sunday meandering around Oxford, perhaps slightly unprepared for the wet and windy weather. We didn't really come for any reason other than to restock our coffee bean supply, and to admire some beautiful architecture, so it was quite a lovely day (until it started chucking it down). 

I recently rediscovered this Topshop blouse at the back of my wardrobe, and decided it would make an absolutely perfect pairing with my American Apparel chiffon skirt and camel coat that I managed to score in Topshop's sale last Christmas. These Asos heels are my new favourite thing, paisley, cut outs and a bit of a heel - yes, yes, and yes again.

PS. I am not a crazy person, and yes I am wearing tights.

Burberry


This week has been a little bit hectic to say the least! As I've mentioned before we work quite a lot with Burberry Beauty, and to celebrate the launch of their new Brit Rhythm perfume, invited international press to stay in London to give them the chance to explore their latest addition. Not many of you might know, but Burberry have also recently launched their nail polish range, with the most perfect colour palette you can imagine. Reds to nudes to metallic coppers and greys. 

As part of their stay the press members were treated to a complimentary manicure, provided by our team. I had the absolute pleasure of coordinating this, and even managed to get my hands on one of the new polishes

Red Riding Hood








This outfit was inspired by a multitude of people, Orla Kiely, Suzy Bishop, Red Riding Hood, Rupert the Bear... Yes, three of those are fictional characters, and what. 

To cut down on costs, and help me attempt to save a little bit of dolla, I've started taking a packed work to lunch, which of course meant purchasing a new lunch box and flask. Soup never tasted so good.
