Summer Breeze















Oh wow, I didn't realise that I had fallen so behind on my outfit posts! But hey it's better to have them out there than to not post them right? I cannot express how obsessed I am with this Topshop skirt. When I first saw it on the advert campaign I didn't think it would be a skirt that would flatter my huge hips but when I saw it in the shop I had to give it a try. The print was too mouthwatering not to give a chance. I ultimately knew that the matching bralet wouldn't be a go for me so I left that to the more adventurous and smaller boobed Topshop girl! The skirt and me immediately bonded in the changing room and I strode out happily beating the wide hiped gods! I knew this would be the perfect outfit to wear for the boyfriends birthday because it is an easy dress up-dress down kinda skirt. Plus it embodies the whole SS14 Dior look! I know that you'll see this skirt again in the winter paired with a crisp shirt!

It was easy to know straight away that I would use my Celine Trio in lipstick to match the skirt. I have been a Trio fan for a while now and I cannot emphasis how brilliant they are and perfect for day to night looks. Plus the practicality of them is perfection. I definitely recommend adding one of these to your handbag wardrobe. 

My Eiffel Tower sandals from Charlotte Olympia are still going strong! If someone had told me last year that I would wear these so much, I would of tried to find a second pair. As shoes that have been worn to death go, I expect these to last one more summer before having to take its place under my bed to rest for special occasions. I will not dwell on their impending retirement. I won't. 

You all know how much I love my Dior sunnies. These have been my go to all season and probably forever, This even counts for my Chanel Paris- Dallas pieces. This necklace is currently my favourite along with my giant silver one from the dallas collection. I always check jewellery in Chanel and evaluate their vintage value in the future. Not all Chanel jewellery is a good idea post season.

The Ambiguous Palm Tree

Evening guys,

I hope everyone had a lovely Easter Bank Holiday. Mine was lovely spent in Wales with my family eating lots of chocolate and the best roast dinner in the world (thanks mum). But alas it's back to London for me tomorrow. I must admit I will always profess my love for Wales (welsh Pakistani till the day I die) but I love London so much I always miss it when I'm at home. Yes I would happily call myself an adoptive Londoner.


You are all probably thinking why is there a giant palm tree, and where is it? The answer to that question, the back of my flat and on the side of the movie. One singular, stand alone palm tree in the midst of a theatre, a movie theatre, a university, a community theatre centre and flats. Dramatic and AMAZING! Cue an opportunity for an outfit post.


I love this outfit purely because I am proud of my customising attempt. These jeans I am wearing are a pair of the Dorothy Perkins jeans that I went completely mental with a knife and cheese grater. I would definitely advise customising a pair of jeans you are not too found of in case you mess up a little, in my case I didn't mind doing exaggerated cuts as I wanted big and fun. 


These sneakers have to be my favourite Chanel shoes at the moment. Comfortable and versatile, they serve the purpose of being fashionably chic and easy to run around London in. These were a rare find, made in limited quantity, classic Chanel tweed printed on a sturdy nylon material and a giant Pearl on the lip. Thanks Alan for buying these for my Valentines day present. 



I love adding a statement necklace to a nice simple outfit. It lifts the outfit perfectly. This is one of the necklaces from my up and coming jewellery shop. It's my most worn piece since spring has come round along with the return of my oh so favourite A.P.C denim jacket. This jacket is my life and soul. 



This little impromptu shoot was done the week I got my beloved Chanel backpack. Honestly it is probably one of my favourite bags in my collection, versatile and easy to match with dresses and jeans. 



I think sub-consciously the palm is here to taunt me over never booking tickets to go to Coachella. I swear I will get myself there soon! But in the mean time I'll party like a scenster at my one man palm tree ;)
