I was having a chat recently with a friend, talking about the way that there are some jewellery pieces that simply just feel a part of you... you know, those pieces you never take off, the pieces you can't leave the house without, the pieces that just feel so 'you' that they're integral to your daily, getting-ready, routine?

I have so many jewellery pieces in my life that I love, from so many beautiful and amazing brands too, however, there are certain pieces that I just can't help but gravitate towards when it comes to putting together my day-to-day looks. 

So, today I thought I'd share with you some of my favourite go-to brands for jewellery, as well as some of my favourites from them, and maybe it'll inspire you to add something special to your daily, getting-ready, routine too!

Daisy Jewellery is one of my absolute favourites when it comes to jewellery. They were the brand that really got me into making jewellery part of my day-to-day wear. I fell in love with their classic and yet intricately designed pieces and as soon as I began wearing their pieces I couldn't stop. One of my all time go-to's are their Stacked Rope Charm Earrings - whenever I need a simple pair of earrings that can go with any outfit, any day, and that can even survive me sleeping and showering in them, I grab these!

Astrid & Miyu are a brand I was quite recently introduced to. I'd heard so much about them but never had the chance to try out their pieces until I was kindly asked to work on a super fun campaign with them. Once again, I was completely hooked! I wear one of their necklaces daily and really love their Rope Charm Hoops for day-to-day wear too. Their designs have this great mixture of bold, but classic, which I adore! 

Sun & Day kindly worked with me last year during lockdown and gifted me some of their pieces. Their Glass Tear Drop Earrings are the ones I always reach for when I'm trying to jazz-up a look a little bit and I also love the details on them too - they've got this textured detail on the hoop, which is so so nice! It's great to shop smaller, independent brands when it comes to jewellery - you can find such unique and beautiful designs that way!

Missoma are a brand that I just adore. I received one of their necklaces as a Christmas gift from my parents a year or so ago, and I've basically worn it every day ever since! The quality is so amazing and I love the beautiful simplicity and yet boldness of the designs - just beautiful! I've been eyeing up so many pieces from them lately!

The list goes on really! There are so many amazing brands, with so many amazing pieces to choose from to create your collection, so if you'd like to check out even more brands, I'll leave that list below!

So we've all seen that photo, right? The one where Kendall Jenner is wearing the most perfect, model off-duty, look, consisting of a simple white shirt, tee, some amazing trousers, belt and beautiful black sandals... If you haven't, then take a look here. But, oh my, I am just obsessed with it (I think we all are!)

Given that I spent a while drooling over the images of it, and just imagining myself ever looking so effortlessly chic, I thought 1. I'd try and recreate it myself (as you can see above, and yes, it's no where near the level of 'cool' that Kendall gives off haha) and 2. share some pieces with you so that you can recreate the look too!

I've compiled a small bunch of pieces that I think work perfectly to recreate the look - from high end to the more 'budget' end of the spectrum - so hopefully there's something here that inspires you make your own 'Kendall Jenner Look'!

Hello everyone, and happy bank holiday weekend! Today's post isn't going to be a wordy one, but I did want to share with you some of my favourite shirt-dress finds, to hopefully inspire some new picks for your S/S wardrobes this year. We all know I love a shirt and I also love a good dress, so the combination of the two is perfect for me. 

I was recently sent some gorgeous pieces by Sandro, including this lovely dress pictured above. It's just so perfect for those sunshiney days, strolling through the city (which I'm hoping we'll have more of soon *crosses fingers*). So, with this dress in mind, I thought I'd share some of my recent finds with you all so that you can get the look too!

Happy Shopping!

Last week was the time we've all been waiting for - it was the thing we'd been daydreaming about, planning for and wishing lockdown away over. Restrictions lifted and we were all able to escape our homes for the first time since Christmas, hallelujah!

I hadn't really planned much for that first week of freedom... to be honest, I was feeling a little apprehensive about the whole thing. The idea of heading back into normality was an odd idea after being stuck in the same day-to-day routine for months on end. I think we all began to feel that way as the 12th edged nearer and nearer, a lot of us unsure of how to ease ourselves back into things, but a week later, looking back at that first week of normality, I'm so glad I got myself out and about and enjoying the little things again.

BLOUSE - AUGUSTE [GIFTED] / TROUSERS - AUGUSTE [GIFTED]

I made plans with friends, catching up after months apart, had drinks in the sunshine and finally got to head back into my favourite place, Manchester. It was really nice to feel like things had almost never changed. I'd missed laughing with my pals and seeing somewhere other than the four walls of my bedroom, and we luckily got to have some lovely sunshine to accompany it all too. 

I mean, I still fully believe we've all got to take things at our own pace. If you're not keen on heading out just yet, there's no pressure too. I know that I definitely need some time at home to recoup from the excitement and just the change in my 'new normal' routine. I've got a couple of nice things planned for this week, but I'm still looking forward to my days WFH and being able to put my PJs on whenever I want!

It's just nice to feel like things are finally moving forward in a positive way. I'm excited to see what Summer brings and to potentially wave goodbye to lockdowns altogether.

I'm a homebody at heart. I love evenings in, candles lit, snug PJs on and a series set up and ready to hit play on Netflix. The last year has made me really appreciate those moments of relaxing- those moments of taking time for myself and settling down from a busy day, but it's also made me really appreciate feeling put-together and good about myself, even when I am simply at home in my PJs and not really doing a lot. 

I think we all saw the surge in popularity of loungewear sets over the last year - we all wanted to feel put-together even when remaining relaxed (and let's face it, sometimes lazy) at home all day. I love to think of my comfies as their own little outfit now - something that's comfortable yet still makes me feel good even when I'm covered in biscuit crumbs and on my 98th episode of Ru Paul's Drag Race.

PJ SET - MEEKA [GIFTED]

Today I thought I'd share with you some Spring PJ sets/loungewear that have caught my eye - pieces that give you that fabulous feeling, yet are the perfect thing to sit back and relax in. I mean, we all wanted to look as put-together as Blair Waldorf lounging around in her nightwear when we were watching Gossip Girl, right? 

Hopefully there's something here that catches your eye and can be a lovely addition to your evening routine to make you feel good through Spring/Summer!

As we head into the warmer months, I thought I'd share with you some of my favourite mid and maxi dresses that I've spotted during my online shopping scrolls. I love these kinds of dresses for Spring/Summer and ever since receiving this gorgeous Faithfull The Brand one, photographed above, I just can't resist the urge to want to skip through grassy fields, picnic basket in hand, and really embrace the sunshiney days (given that we actually get more the 3 or 4 of those this year...)

All that's on my mind right now is the potential sunshine-filled Summer days ahead. The idea of meeting friends outside, ice-cold ciders in hand, and a fabulous summer wardrobe to accompany the situation - it's all making me really excited for what lies ahead. I mean, I know there's no promise of Summer being this way, but it's really nice to feel hopeful for once and have something to look forward to.

Lately, I've found myself dealing with some kind of Stockholm Syndrome spending so much time working from my bedroom and never really having an escape, besides the occasional walk or two, of course. Don't get me wrong, I love working from home, left to my own devices to get creative, but after a year long period of it, I'm really starting miss my pals and life outside of the village I live in.

BLAZER - ASOS / TOP - ASOS [GIFTED] / SKIRT - NASTY GAL

I'm so ready to be reunited with Manchester again. I miss the Northern Quarter charm and those acquaintances that I bump into in bars and cafes, and I even miss the dreaded walk through Piccadilly Gardens, trying to swerve my way round the hustle and bustle. 

The life I'm daydreaming about post-lockdown seems completely out of reach at the moment, but I'm hopeful that as the months pass, it will become a reality and I'll be tipsily giggling with my friends in the sunshine soon. 

Sending love to you all and here's to a wonderful post-lockdown Summer!
