What a crazy week it has been. At least I was able to live through the initial pain of the referendum result in a little bubble in best place on earth, Glastonbury Festival. I had absolutely great time, despite the mud and tired feet because it is always worth it. I have a vlog coming on Sunday which goes into more detail about who I saw and what I did so without giving too much away, here is a little photo diary. 

Highlights included doing power ballad yoga; doing real yoga; the food and the cider; the fireworks at Stone Circle on Wednesday night; exploring the Greenpeace field and going on its drop slide; catching up with old friends; spending time with Lewis; and watching Ronnie Spector, Sigur Ros, The Last Shadow Puppets, Will Young and of course Adele and Coldplay.

Ultimate Nineties | Glastonbury Festival Outfit 1

Dress - PRIMARK, T-shirt - secondhand (SIMILAR), Choker - ASOS, Backpack - unknown (SIMILAR), Wellies - HUNTER
Location: West Holts Stage, Glastonbury Festival 2016

If you dragged yourself away from the horrific drama of last week's EU referendum result (more on that another time, I think), you will know that one of the wettest and muddiest Glastonbury Festivals took place this weekend. Despite my windswept and muddy appearance - these were seriously the worst conditions for shooting in - I still wanted to share with you one of my favourite festival outfits to date - this amazing nineties look styled around this incredible slip dress. 

I have always been a fan of leopard print and this is one that Pat Butcher certainly would be caught dead in. However, I think it is just the most amazing print for this nineties style slip dress, which, layered over a white t-shirt and accessorised with a black choker and backpack, just makes for the perfect nineties festival look.  

This dress is super comfortable, which is always a winner at festivals and it sits perfectly just above the knee for your muddy wellies and knee high socks. By headliner time, just add a leather jacket and you are good to go for the rest of the night!

Si vous avez réussi de vous éloigner un peu de la drame du referendum britannique la semaine dernière, vous saurez aussi que l'un des Glastonbury Festivals le plus mouillé et le boueux se passait ce weekend. Malgré mon apparence battu par le vent - il faisait des temps difficile pour shooter - je voulais toujours vous montrer ce look nineties qui est un de mes tenues préférées pour un festival.

Je suis fan du motif leopard depuis toujours et celui-ci est parfait pour ce style de robe à bretelles nineties. Je l'ai mise sur un t-shirt blanc avec un ras-de-cou et un sac à dos pour la tenue parfaite pour un festival.

Cette robe est super confortable, qui est super à un festival, et elle s'arrête juste au-dessus des genoux pour que vous puissiez montrer aussi vos bottes de pluie et des chaussettes à hauteur des genoux. Plus tard, ajoutez un perfecto en cuir et vous êtes prêtes pour toute la nuit!

Seventies Day to Night Outfit

Dungarees - ZARA, Blouse - vintage (SIMILAR), Boots - ASOS (sold out, SIMILAR), Sunglasses - RAY BAN
Location: El Born, Barcelona

Even though this outfit was shot in a beautiful and quaint street in Barcelona, I actually want to talk about how this outfit is the perfect day to night outfit for the colder climates that I am returning to. If you have read my recent LIFE UPDATE post or watched yesterday's VLOG OF MY LAST TWO WEEKS IN BARCELONA, you will know that I am moving back to Bristol tonight (hopefully just for a few weeks).

After weeks of not having to cover up my tanned legs, even in the evening, this is what I wore on Saturday night after a massive storm had cleared Barcelona's hot climate. It got me thinking that this is the kind of outfit that I will have to get used to wearing once I am back on British soil - not that it's a chore because I am loving this seventies look but you know, you cannot beat getting your pins out! This is a great day to night outfit without any effort thanks to the combination of a cute frilly blouse with relaxed fit denim dungarees. Come nightfall, just remove the sunglasses (yep, new Ray Ban purchase alert!), pop on some red lippy and a leather jacket and you are good to go.

What are your tips for a day to night outfit?

Je vous avoue que nous avons shooté ce look dans une belle rue pittoresque dans Barcelona mais je veux vous parler du fait que cette tenue sera parfaite pendant la journée et la soirée dans des climats plus froids dans lesquels je me trouverai très bientôt. Si vous avez lu ma poste NOUVELLE DE VIE ou vous avez regardé mon vlog d'hier de MES DEUX DERNIERE SEMAINES A BARCELONE, vous saurez que je rentre à Bristol ce soir (j'espère que pour quelques semaines).

Après quelques semaines de pouvoir porter des jambes nus (et bronzés), même le soir, voilà la tenue que j'ai porté ce samedi soir après un grand orage qui a rafraîchi le climat chaud de Barcelone. J'imagine que je porterai ce genre de look beaucoup en Angleterre - je ne plains pas parce que j'adore cet outfit seventies mais j'aime plus porter des jambes nus! Cette tenue est facile à porter de la journée à la soirée, sans effort, grâce à la combinaison du chemisier romantique avec une salopette en jean. Dès qu'il fait nuit, on enlève des lunettes de soleil (oui, c'est des nouvelles Ray Ban!), on ajoute du rouge à lèvres rouge et un perfecto et voilà!

Quels sont vos conseils pour une tenue de la journée à la soirée?

YouTube Fortnightly Vlog - Weekend in Bristol and Last Two Weeks in Barcelona


It is Sunday evening and that means that my time in Barcelona is almost over. I leave tomorrow night - back to Bristol for a few weeks! I have vlogged my last two weeks in Barcelona (plus a weekend that I was in Bristol for a wedding) and these are just some of the amazing memories that I have made here. I hope you enjoy this vlog that contains some serious food porn, outfits and sunny Barcelona!

Blogging Block & Life Update

Blogging block and life update
Over the past few weeks I feel that I have lost my blogging mojo. Even though I have still been posting my weekly Monday morning outfits and weekly Sunday videos, I have been experiencing a blogging block about my content inbetween.

I guess this is all very normal as life is pretty hectic right now...

At the end of May, we moved out of our beloved flat that we had called home for the past six months in Barcelona. That alone was distressing enough but when the couple we were renting from tried to swindle us (and our massive deposit) for as much cleaning and repairs as they dared, shit really did hit the fan and last week was one of the most anxiety-filled weeks I have had in a long time. (Luckily we sorted some of it out but still ended up with a huge cleaning bill.)

That aside, I have been feeling in limbo because we are temporarily staying in a (albeit lovely) room in a flat share (albeit with an adorable German lady and her grumpy cat) for our last three weeks of Barcelona - yep, I'm moving back to Bristol, hopefully for just a few weeks, on Monday. It is pretty hard to stay motivated and on schedule when you are neither in your normal setting nor surrounded by all of your things.

So, yep, I arrive back in Bristol late on Monday night and then I have just Tuesday to unpack, shop and repack to go to Glastonbury on Wednesday! I am trying my best to post regular content but of late I am struggling to think of new post ideas. That, combined with these upcoming manic couple of weeks, may mean that there may be less posts but just know that I am trying to get my mojo back as I want this blog to be an exciting and diverse place where you can come to find inspiration.

I would love to hear from you about what like and dislike about my current content; what you would like to see more of; and if you have any ideas for new posts or features that I could do! Also if you have any tips for re-finding inspiration, I would love to hear them. I read and reply to every one of your comments so please do let me know below!

Alternative Summer Occasion Outfit

Dress - ASOS, Shoes - ASOS, Socks - TOPSHOP (old), SIMILAR, Choker - ASOS (sold out), Clutch - vintage, SIMILAR
Location: Redland, Bristol

Pink is not a colour that you will have seen me wear very often. That is not because I do not like pink but more so because I do not think it suits my skin tone. However, when I came across this Reclaimed Vintage dress on ASOS, I loved its tiered ruffle skirt, plunging V neckline and tied waistband so much that I thought I would take a chance.

Thankfully, the risk paid off and I absolutely love the pink/peach hue, although I had toughen up this girly dress with some black and gold accessories. Following last week's ALTERNATIVE SUMMER WEDDING outfit post, today's look is one that I considered wearing as a wedding guest but then decided that this would be more suited to evenings out or summer occasions such as friends' birthdays, posh BBQs or end of year prom.

As always with low-cut necklines, I am wearing a choker. This black satin one with a chunky gold stripe incidentally gave me the colour scheme for this outfit - pink, black and gold. To ensure that all my accessories featured black and gold together, I wore my favourite gold lurex ankle socks with black suede block heel pumps and finished off the look with a black leather clutch with gold detailing.

Are you going to any special events this summer? What will you be wearing?

Je ne porte pas la couleur rose très souvent. Cela n'est pas parce que je ne l'aime pas comme couleur mais parce que je trouve qu'elle n'est pas super avec ma couleur de peau. Cependant, quand j'ai vu cette robe de Reclaimed Vintage sur ASOS, j'aimais trop sa jupe de ruches, son décolleté V et le nœud à sa taille pour ne pas l'acheter.

Heureusement, mon pari a gagné et j'aime trop sa teinte rose/pêche mais pour moi, il fallait créer un look moins féminin en portant des accessoires noires et dorées. La semaine dernière je vous ai montré un outfit ALTERNATIF POUR UN MARIAGE D'ETE. Aujourd'hui je vous présente une tenue que j'avais considéré porter au mariage mais j'ai décidé qu'elle est plutôt faite pour une soirée ou un évènement d'été comme un anniversaire d'un ami, un barbecue chic ou un bal de la fin de l'année.

Comme d'habitude quand je porte un décolleté bas, je porte un ras-de-cou. Celui-ci qui est fabriqué en satin noir avec une rayure dorée m'a donné la palette de couleurs pour cette tenue - rose, noir et doré. J'ai mis mes chaussettes lurex dorées avec des ballerines à talons en daim noires et j'ai fini le look avec une pochette en cuir noir avec des détails dorés.

Allez-vous aux évènements spéciaux cet été? Que porterez-vous?
