Well the weather has just been a bit rubbish hasn't it!? I can only describe it as grey. It's just been hopeless and having just come back from the Sunshine State doesn't make it any easier either. Ben and I are counting down the hours to our next holiday... Any way, it seems I dress to suit a forecast - I met
Nancy in town in an almost grey ensemble! This is a very good example of what I wear on a daily basis...

Atterley Road press day (fast becoming my favourite online store; their selection of Scandinavian brands for next season is exceptional) and was lucky enough to be given a voucher. My friends all thought I was daft buying a coat in April - well more fool them! I spied
this one on
Lucy's blog and have been coveting it ever since. As it was reduced to under half price, I like to think it was a total bargain, no?

Supertrash which I've worn to death, I'm considering a seasonal upgrade to these
Whistles Margaux brogues (so Acne it hurts = love). The
jumper... Oh
the jumper. I'd been after this for months and months and months. Finally we cross paths in the J Crew outlet in Las Vegas. I had originally hoped for the green/navy colour way but that has sold out everywhere in London (except incidentally, online
here) but I'm loving
my grey version. It looks great with my denims (
Paige, what else?) which I picked up a month or so ago. They're even more ripped and worn than when I got them, but I kind of love that - I've made them my own.

I pinched one of Nancy's whilst we were having coffee - which is a
Barry M special. Beauty wise, I'm also desperately holding on to the slight tan I acquired on holiday with some help from Weleda; their
Skin Food is amazing for stopping dryness. My hair has needed a similar level of fuss after a week of sun; at the moment I'm trying out
Umberto Gianni's Mend My Hair collection - the protein spray is amazing, very much recommend...
Well thats all I've got for now, I can't quite believe another weekend has come around so quickly - have a good one guys!
