Spring is a funny season, we expect it to be warm and sunny, not too hot and not too cold, but alas, England is ever so temperamental. I've gone from wearing shorts and a t-shirt one day to my full on winter coat the next... and don't even get me started on spring footwear, I'm still plodding along in my winter boots, lol. So with the season being so changeable, layers are key. If you know me, you'll know I am the queen of layers, I always have a minimum of two hidden layers for warmth (I am also always cold, lol) so lightweight knits are the perfect item to throw on under a jacket and over a shirt to add that extra layer which can easily be removed if the sun suddenly decides to come out and it gets a little warmer!

I am still obsessed with the tribal/aztec trend, I think being a print designer, I will just always be drawn to it. The pink metallic Diane von Furstenburg jumper, reminds me of one that Ivy wore in Gossip Girl last year which I still think is super cute. And I'm loving the waffle knits that are everywhere at the moment, Topshop have a huge range of colours, and Pull and Bear have a gorgeous lemon yellow one that is 100% cotton which I need it in my life - not paired with black as it is on the website though! :)

Spring/Summer Trend Alert: Tropical + Hawaiian + Botanical + Rainforest Prints

Green floral print shirt // parrot print jersey // white floral print shirt // white sheer insert dress

I am slightly obsessing over these gorgeous botanical/rainforest themed prints (and the beautiful Oasis lookbook - bottom right.) Now, we all know floral prints are nothing new, but I love the fresh colour palettes that these bring, along with the introduction of subtle watercolour details in the stunning Paul Smith oversized shirt. Paired with distressed denim shorts and my trusty leather jacket, I can longingly imagine creating a perfect casual look for lazy days in the sunshine :)

Sunshine Days

Sunglasses: The Wild Soul // Triangle shirt: Choies // High waisted black shorts: Nowistyle // Canvas backpack: Yes Walker

Hi guys! It is so beautiful here at the moment, it is actually hot enough for shorts! Sunshine makes me happy :) Life is pretty amazing in general at the moment, I actually love where I live, start a new job tomorrow and have an interview with American Apparel and am photographing my house mates band at their gig on Saturday! Today's look is a casual, fun summer outfit, we shall pretend that the shorts aren't huge on me and that they are supposed to look like that haha, And I love this backpack, it's a two mile walk/cycle into the town centre from my house so I always reach for it instead of a handbag these days :)

Neutral Interior Decoration Inspiration Mood Board

White Paper Flower Garland // Cable Knit Throws // White Leaf Trail Duvet Set // Blue Ikea Throw // Silver  Photo Frame // Duck Egg Blue Regency Duvet Set

I have been continuously searching for the perfect accessories to create a minimal yet cosy atmosphere in my new bedroom and have put together an inspirational mood board with a few of my favourite items. I am always drawn to white as a base colour due to it's clean minimalism and love to mix it with other cool neutral tones such as pale blue and grey. The paper garland adds a delicate, romantic element and the photo frame is classic, simple and beautiful, it's from J.A.Campbell, who also offer an engraving service along with an extensive range of stunning silver wedding gifts. I am painting my room white as soon as I can get a lift to B&Q...lol and I can't wait to finally get some furniture and create my perfect little haven :)
