Autumn '22 | Photo diary

1 December 2022


Before you scroll through some photos, this has been my favourite autumnal outfit I've worn so far so I thought I'd share! 
Corduroy pinafore- Nobody's Child
Striped knitted vest- Zara via Red Cross 
Blazer- H&M
Bag- Uniqlo


Now it's getting darker a lot earlier, I'm not sure I'm enjoying Autumn as much (it's a love/hate relationship) but what I do love is the; Autumnal colours, the fashion, the walks, that first hot chocolate of the season and of course, pumpkin picking and carving. There have been so many special and memorable moments recently that I've loved capturing. I find myself going through them when I feel down and they are a huge reminder that the small things are the most important, as cliche as that sounds. 

I'm purely coming back to this post myself just for the colour scheme in these photos alone! But also to remember some of the best moments of Autumn 2022 that I hope you enjoy looking through too.

3 ways to style the 90s wide leg jeans | Spring fashion

17 May 2021

Writing about spring fashion when it's May and sunny is totally different to writing about spring fashion when it's rainy and horrible outside. This can be classed as manifestation, right?

So I've boycotted the coat and am dealing with the fact that I might freeze to death. 

But this is for when the weather does warm up and we can walk freely out of the house and maybe not even bother to check the weather app. What a dream that will be. 




I have been looking for a pair of wide-leg jeans for ages! I've tried many, a lot were too long and too baggy. I know that's the style but you know when it's too much, you want them to fit nicely in the right areas. 

With things like this, I learnt that the best thing to do is try on in-store if you can. When looking online, sometimes they'd look perfect on the model and they would arrive, look good out of the packet and then just not look how I envisioned at all when I tried them on. This happened many times before venturing in-store. 

But one of the things I also realised was that my legs were too short and they would need a inches cut off them so they didn't look like my ankles were being drowned with material and I could wear a pair of trainers without the hem dragging across the floor. 

The pair that I now own and actually fit me are from H&M and I managed to find them on a random rail in my size! The fact that fitting rooms are open now is a lifesaver and especially if you have a helpful assistant to tell you you should buy them, an added bonus. 

However, they were too long for me but fitted everywhere else perfectly so I knew that when I cut them, I would be happy with them as if it wasn't, I couldn't send them back. 

When it came to doing the traditional fashion show at home, trying on many different tops to see how I'd wear them, I thought it would be quite difficult as they are baggy and I didn't want to wear a baggy top with them but it's up to personal preference and I think it looks okay if you do a half tuck at the front. 

I've chosen three t-shirts, very much channeling the spring vibe, that I have worn with them or plan on wearing with them when the weather changes! I'm obessed with anything colourful at the moment. And my trusty basket bag, claw clips and trainers. What a trio of accessories.

Spring Fashion Lusts for 2021

5 March 2021

Spring fashion is here! And I found so many things I love, mostly on Asos and a few from Zara so I thought I'd share everything on here. I'm a huge lover of colour anyway but it's really 'in' right now which made it difficult for me to narrow things down! I have to say sage and pink are up there as my favourites at the moment. 

With restrictions easing soon and going back to school, people are going to be seeing what we're wearing! So making an effort won't be going to waste. *insert the sound of fireworks and celebration*  However, I'm still loving the casual 70s style with a bit of 90s with the wide leg jeans and check skirt! Therefore, I will not be dressing up any time soon. 

My hair is getting longer too so whilst it is still a longer length, I want to get some some things I can put it up with and I've seen quite a few people wear the claw clips which look cool. But I know it will be that thing that I try out and it just doesn't look as good on me! 

Colour makes me so happy and positive so I'm really here for this season's fashion and so excited to wear as much colour as possible. We just need the sun to make a consistent appearance now too.
