nude in paris

21th April 2015
Typical, as soon as I feel like I’ve really got my winter wardrobe on point. The sun comes out and the temperature rockets. Did it actually hit 24 degrees last week? I’m moaning but I love it really, it’s just an excuse to go shopping, as if I’ve ever needed an excuse. A huge part of my Spring/Summer wardrobe has always been jersey basics. But don’t let the name fool you, they are anything but basic. The fit, fabric, weight and neckline are all important things to consider before digging deep and just like handbags and shoes I think that sometimes to get all those things right you might need to spend a little more, or so I thought. I love surprises, maybe its the kid in me. But when something isn’t expected and leaves people open mouthed it gives me a sort of satisfaction. Like when I tell people about a bargain handbag I nabbed on ebay. This is how feel about this outfit. The t-shirt sits perfectly, the blazer cuts the most flattering silhouette and the jeans bring a little rock and roll to the look, all for under £75. And as I type this from the lobby of Hotel Costes in the Centre of Paris I kinda feel like no-one would even notice that my jeans cost £10 and my t-shirt cost £8. T-shirt – Missguided     Jeans – Primark (similar here)     Blazer – Topshop     Shoes – Chloe (similar inspired pair here)     Bag – Gucci     Watch – The Fifth     Belt – Gap

Hair @imy_hair for @greatlengthsuk
I’m in my golden era. Ad having nurtured my hair back to health with professional haircare, supplements and hair oiling I knew I didn’t have enough time to grow my hair back for Summer so the wonderful team at @greatlengthsuk enlisted @imy_hair to transform me into my Summer style for the next few months. For those that don’t know Great Lengths has always been my extension brand of choice, about 15 years ago I had them for 2.5years to help me grow my hair back after I experimented a little too much with my style. My hair grew back healthy and strong and I didn’t have to wish the time away as the extensions gave me the extra few inches I needed without damaging my hair. I will have these removed at the end of the summer to continue to grow my hair back with regular Diamond cuts.
