Here Comes The Sun.

Surely the fact Im reviewing swimwear means summers on its way, yes? Either way, I will be finding a multitude of ways to hit the beach now I have this delectable bikini to wear. Firstly, apologies f...

OOTD Abroad.

So I just got back from my annual trip with my old pal Mark (who you may remember from our last annual trip) - a few days in Amsterdam where the weather alternated between beautiful and hid...

Fuck Flattering : Date Edition.

So, I got into the Masters programme Id applied for (MA Journalism at Goldsmiths, for the curious). This called for a celebration, so a standard date night was combined with toasting my success.Im cr...

Be My Burger Queen.

Firstly I want to thank Jayne for taking almost all the photos you see here. She is amazing. Secondly I want to thank, in no particular order, Laurel, Jack, Sam, Seb, Mo, Hannah, Colette, Maina,...

Mad Men.

I love Mad Men. Ive watched it since the beginning and think its truly exceptional television, so the hiatus has been pretty painful. In fact, Ive seen Jon Hamm more recently than Ive seen Don Draper...

Out With The Old.

Friday was the last day of our years undergraduate teaching EVER. The French students of UCL united and converged upon a pub in Bloomsbury to drink and be merry in the lovely evening sunshine and giv...

Au Naturel.

Apparently its National No-Makeup Day. Whether or not thats true, I just wanted to, for once, post a photo where I was makeup free. Someone asked me recently if I ever go out without makeup and the a...

Mixed Fortunes.

This dress is a bit of a strange one. I half love it, half hate it. I was sent it to compensate for a certain brands fuckery (may I add, not the brand who manufacture the dress but the brand who sell...

Polka Dots & Leopard Spots.

Sometimes I want to dress like a nice young woman, other times I want to dress like Im going to key your car. This 80s-meets-60s outfit is for such an occasion. Leather jacket : All Saints (UK 1...

Charcoal Tuesday.

Just a simple outfit for todays post! Still loving the sweater dress (honestly, my Jaeger leopard print one is the best thing Ive ever bought!), and loving being able to wear it with flats and a ligh...

Primark or Prada.

Im loving washed-out pastels and sweet prints at the moment. Im trying to encourage spring to appear by wearing lots of candy colours and general sunny bits and pieces. I got so many compliments on t...

The Trouble With Trousers.

Yesterday morning I took a trip with some friends to see the Picasso exhibition at the Tate Britain. I thought I should wear something demure and ladylike for this adventure, so I went with my new fa...

What Possessed You?

Sometimes I get an idea in my head so unshakeable that Im single-minded in my pursuit to see it through. These jeans were one such idea. Id seen them online, tried them on instore, loved them, decide...

Sweet Charity.

Ive been so lucky to find some beautiful things in my small, local, fairly unremarkable charity shop (Marie Curie Cancer Care, Archway - reprazent!). Its right next to my bus stop, so if the 390 or t...

Sensible.

After the uncompromisingly badass look I posted earlier in the week, I thought I should follow up with something a bit more good-girl. I bought this jumper months ago, in a medium, and have worn it t...

Shade of Grey.

Its kind of simple, kind of plain, but I really love it. My new grey jersey tank dress from Topshop. I tried it on the weekend before last, didnt buy it, then spent all week thinking about it. After ...

No Aloha.

My beloved housemate Beth has really got into her role of photographer. She has taken it upon herself to make me do stupid poses, like the one you see below. I shall humour her by putting it on here,...

Kynodontas.

Dogtooth isnt a print I think of often. It doesnt reside in the same category as stars or tropical prints as a go-to, fix-all happy fashion cure. But once in a while, it works for me. This is the dre...

Plus London!

Where to begin?! I was going to start by saying that Plus London Two is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off, but I stripped off in at least three different locations in front ...

Blue Monday.

This is what I wore last night to the Zomgbloggersbash as organised by Rockalily Lipsticks. I had to wear it to my class that finished in the early evening, but to be honest, I usually turn up to cla...

Gok OClock.

Ill level with you: I have bras that Ive worn since 2005. I never match my underwear (no one ever sees it! Ho ho ho!). Lingerie is not really my area of expertise, but when I was invited to the launc...

Whats in my Handbag.

Ive looked like rubbish all weekend (50-hour at-home exam, yay!) so thought now would be a good time to turn the camera away from me and onto the contents of my handbag. Its a standard-issue blog pos...

Burger Queen : 2k12.
