Sunshine wishlist | Persunmall

I think I might have found the most sunshine-ready brand out there! This Persunmall wishlist pretty much sums up how I would dress in a capsule collection, with mint, floral and vintage print shirts, and summer-ready cut out sandals that still manage to look pretty tough. My favourite has to be this yellow and blue floral mini, it has quite an arty, 60s vibe and would look amazing with bare legs and a crisp white shirt.

Fox + Feather | Bristol

Fox + Feather BristolFox + Feather Bristol

If you're Bristol-based you might have wandered past or seen Lyzi blog about Fox + Feather on Gloucester Road last year, and ever since I've been dying to visit! Bristol is quite some distance from my native Sheffield, but it's not too difficult to get to from Birmingham and Liam's neck of the woods, plus many of my blogging lovelies reside not too far away.

As luck would have it, a couple of months ago I got a tweet from owner and Nicest Person Ever Clare asking about PR, so it was the perfect excuse to pop down and check out her beautiful store.

Outfit post | fox print shirt & blush blazer

Fox print shirtFox print shirt
I'm taking advantage of our new surroundings this week and finding lots of places to take outfit shots for the blog. Today, scaring my potential neighbours by posing on a stairwell, hurrah!

I'm wearing my new fox print shirt which hasn't come out as well as I'd hoped (note to self - hunt for better lighting) and my gorgeous new blush pink tweed blazer which was on sale in Primark for just £7! I've been favouring the mini/shirt/blazer combo for work lately as it's smart but still comfortable enough to run around in. The life of a PR executive is always varied so I have to be pretty much prepared for anything, from heavy lifting to an emergency meeting with a fashion client.

May giveaway


Moving out of my family home has meant a colossal amount of "sorting", and I stumbled across a canvas bag full of blogger stuff I squirrelled away to spoil all of you lovelies with!

I haven't done a giveaway for some time, and now is the perfect time, so to make up for this unacceptable hiatus I'm holding FOUR, which collectively RRPs at over £270, the biggest giveaway I've ever done!

The hunt for the perfect grey t-shirt

These photographs have been languishing in my "fashion to post about" folder for a few days now so while I'm still unpacking all of my shoes in my new flat, I thought it would be a good time to write about it. It's actually the last ever blog outfit post at my Mum's house (it still feels so weird saying that), and considering it was quite a thrown-together blogger ensemble I quite like it!

I've come to the conclusion that I often have a wishlist for pieces that actually don't exist. This has happened before (e.g. leather gilet, until they were EVERYWHERE), and most recently I've found it very difficult to find a decent grey t-shirt. The High Street seems determined to convince me that the way laydeez wear their jersey is low cut and see-through. No ta. Luckily for me, Primark mens once again came up trumps, and I'm seriously considering buying 20 of these t-shirts for safekeeping.
