I’m not a vegan or even a vegetarian for that matter but if you’re in the Bethnal Green area of London, I know a great place for vegan food. Just Fab is such a nice spot and I loved the idea that the kitchen is in the bottom half of a Double Decker bus. It’s […]
Hang up those skinnies
Blasting, rips or let down hems – denim for 2017 is all about deconstruction, distressing and embracing texture. Vetements, a Parisian fashion label is most definitely having a moment with influencing our denim choice this year with their now eponymous reworked jeans. The trend below is one that has me hot-footing it to the shops and browsing […]
The power of nature
….Biophilia Do you know what this word means? I didn’t until I came across it in a book called The Geography of Bliss by David Weiner. This brilliant book is about the 10 happiest nations in the world and the secrets to their joy. It turns out that one of the the major factors to […]
Hold the phone…
I saw this poster on the tube today for Diana – her fashion story at Kensington Palace and I literally cannot wait to see visit. Princess Diana was a true fashion icon and an inspirational woman. My Mom loved Princess Diana and I grew up leafing through pages of Hello Magazine and it’s one of […]

One room at the Banksy hotel please

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home This quote from Thwyla Tharp perfectly encompasses the power of art to change a mood or take us on a journey. It is literally good for the soul to walk around Tate Britain.When I stopped by, the colours and light in these paintings stopped […]
A quote to beat hump day!
I’m still going strong with my 30 day blogging challenge and really enjoying it! I’ve had quite a busy day at work and I’m just back from a delicious Indian meal for a joint birthday, so this post is a short one! I think T.S.Eliot had the most amazing way of making huge impact in […]
#smileyselfie
I took this selfie of my family on a recent trip home to Dublin and I love it. It’s so rare that we’re all in the one spot at the same time. I’ve lived in London almost five years now and time spent with family is a bit like that famous Mastercard phrase! I’m like […]
Rachel Jackson London – I want it all!
I’ve fallen in love with Rachel Jackson’s jewellery. Simple as! Along with her to die for pieces, I really connect with Rachel’s can-do attitude and this mantra that she lives by from her website… ‘She believed she could so she did’ Rachel left a career in the music industry behind and started designing jewellery at […]
