Sometimes, horror stories come in the form of a bad winter cold on your birthday. I am almost a child of Halloween (born on October 29th and forever wishing as a teen it was October 31st so I could pretend I was a witch) and this month’s frightful situation came with two of the scariest […]

5 of the best Coppola Girl style moments
Oh, Sofia queen of style. Anyone who’s ever watched a Sofia Coppola film will know the director’s inimitable ability to ooze effortless style. Sofia set the bar high with dreamy directorial debut The Virgin Suicides and then she just kept on going with the likes of Lost in Translation, The Bling Ring and most recently […]
Wild Women Do – The Pretty Woman Inspired Outfit
I have been watching Pretty Woman for so many years I don’t even remember the first time. I’m pretty sure I didn’t understand what was going on when I first watched it as a child, but something in it captivated me. It was probably Julia Roberts, she definitely has that effect. Anyhow, as dated as […]
The Lisbon Sister – The Virgin Suicides inspired look
I first found The Virgin Suicides when I was about 16. For some reason, I’ve always been drawn to the macabre (I grew up listening to Radiohead), and I was entranced by the dreamy, romantic vision of these five sisters and their beautifully sad story. Although it was the first feature for director Sofia Coppola, […]
Why one of my New Year’s Resolutions wasn’t to eat less cake
Firstly, I will say that my body and I have had our ups and downs. I treated her terribly in my twenties. And so she decided to teach me a lesson. Somewhere between 23 and 24 she stopped conquering junk food and just got (dare I say it) fat. I hated myself for […]

The Dreamer – Christmas Gift Guide Day 1
“I’m a dreamerrrrr”… thanks to the 90s for the cheesy dance track that has been torturing my brain ever since I bought this jumper. But it hasn’t stopped me from putting it in my first Christmas gift guide, an edit for all those daydreaming, romantic, Walter Mitty types. 1 – “I’m A Dreamer” Knitted jumper […]
Starry Starry Night – Going out out for Christmas
I love this season for fashion. The dark colour palettes, the sparkly details, the sumptuous texture… So I’ve put together a little edit of some favourite picks for those festive nights. Pile on the opulence with a few shimmering separates, or start your outfit with a statement piece such as the feathery tulle dress from […]
I think I might be a handbagaholic.
We all know someone with a handbag obsession. Although, if we’re completely honest, most of us ARE that person with the handbag obsession. I think my infatuation started when I was young. I remember my mum’s handbag being very symbolic. There it stood, a quilted leather Chanel dupe with a gold chain, always […]
Why we’re raiding grandma’s wardrobe this winter
Hello Nana. This season we’re finally embracing age, and it comes in the form of what I like to call ‘the granny knit’. Think vintage, hand knitted style jumpers and cardies, but most importantly of all, they have to look as though they could be found in your grandma’s wardrobe. They remind me of those […]
