Friday Treat: & Other Stories Skinny Strap Jumpsuit
[affiliate] The more I see other people wearing these loose jumpsuits, the more I think anyone can wear them. I saw a much older lady at the station the other day looking absolutely knock-out in one – so elegant. She’d styled it with a white t-shirt underneath but obviously, any colour T would look amazing…

Friday Treat: Stripe Swimming One Piece
[affiliatelink] This is less Friday treat and more bikini defeat. I tried on a bikini in John Lewis a couple of weeks ago and it was the most depressing experience. I love bikinis – I love seeing women young and old when I go abroad completely carefree in their teeny two-pieces just revelling in the…

Friday Treat: Easy Dress From M&S
[affiliatelink] Every year the dress mood strikes – usually with a change in the weather when I can actually think realistically about bringing my feet and legs out of hibernation. I’m very much a jeans person – jeans and black skinnies are my uniform but I can actually see myself wearing this loose and long…

Friday Treat: Uniqlo Spring Coat
[affiliatelink] I’ve been eyeing up the Blocktech coats from Uniqlo for a few weeks – my last spring coat was from Uniqlo and to be honest, it’s not much different in style than this one, but Blocktech is a shower-proof version and after getting soaked three times in one day yesterday, it can’t wait much…

Friday Treat: Rainbow Trainers
[affiliatelinks] Urgh, I am in such a February mood – sleepy, sluggish and everything feels like an effort. I bounced through January but winter has caught up with me and all I want to do is hibernate. I pulled out a sweater my mum gave me for Christmas with a rainbow on it yesterday and it…

Friday Treat: Uniqlo Bra Tops
(affiliate) I have been waiting and waiting for the Uniqlo Bra Tops*** to restock and finally it’s happened. I wear these ALL the time and you honestly will never want to wear anything else. I’m pretty sure I’ve talked about them several times before. So, they’re in the Airism material (it’s a special sweat wicking,…

H&M Rolling Stones Hoodie
Despite the numerous permutations of January being suggested (Veganuary, Januhairy, Dry January etc) this month for me is all about being as comfortable and cosy as possible. Hoodies to me aren’t about looking sporty and active; they’re about looking like you’re not up for doing anything taxing and they’re just one step before pyjamas! The…

Friday Treat: Monsoon Shimmer Top
I bought this purely on a whim – it’s not even in the sale – but absolutely love it for its little bit of glitz amongst the ditsy print. It’s such an easy wear – I’ve got my Uniqlo Heat-Tech top underneath because it’s quite a whispy thing and I’m not that hardy – but…

& Other Stories Sale
Since one of my favourite (every age friendly) stores has literally just gone into sale I’m doing a super quick, no frills round up and then putting my Out Of Office on for the rest of the day. (*post contains affiliate links) I’ll have couple of posts for Christmas Eve but other than that I’m…

Friday Treat: All Things Sale Shoes
So, it’s so close to Christmas now that there’s nothing you can order that will arrive on time (unless you book the Net-a-Porter same day van) so I thought I’d do a quick scoot around the sales. At the moment, the biggest discounts are on footwear, so I’ve pulled my picks from Selfridges that range…

Friday Treat: Sequin Sweater
I’m a bit of a bah-humbug when it comes to Christmas sweaters – I just don’t want a glittery reindeer all over my chest. So this sweater is about as Christmassy-jumper as I’m prepared to go and it’s an absolute bargain at £20. Obviously, it’s not wool (which I’m happy about frankly as there’s less…

Friday Treat: & Other Stories Metallic Shirt
I have tried to get my hands on this metallic shirt in store three times, and while it shows up on line, none of the stores I’ve visited has it in stock. It’s so weird. I am trying again tomorrow and if no joy, ordering on-line because it’s too good to miss. I’m not much…

Friday Treat: Has H&M Gone A Little Bit Dior?
So, I already had a Friday Treat post all ready and waiting to go live until I spotted the dress version of this gorgeous black chiffon applique’d skirt in H&M. I didn’t see the skirt until my friend Genevieve posted herself on Instagram wearing it (and she’s kindly letting me post it so you can…

Uniqlo Hooded Wool Coat
I was in Uniqlo on Oxford Street yesterday and had a very, very quick dash around to see if there was anything new. I spotted this – I’m calling it a hoodigan – but didn’t have time to queue to buy it. So annoying, because I love a hoodie. There was literally no sign in…

Friday Treat: Stellar 79 Spectrum Sphere Ring
Earlier in the year, I bought myself a skinny rainbow ring and haven’t taken it off since the day I got it – I absolutely love it. So, when new jewellery brand, Stellar 79, launched on Wednesday, the first thing my eyes fell upon is this rainbow ring – the Spectrum Sphere. So much so…
