Spring greens

Here are some more photos from early spring.

 I wanted to celebrate the appearance of spring buds 

with these images.

I love the fabric of this hand-stitched silk printed dress 

that I found in a vintage shop.

With thick tights, pumps and a belt it was a wonderful outfit 

for the slowly warming weather.

Outfit:

Green silk dress, navy ribbed tights, black pumps.

Accessories:

Black belt, green shell bracelet, 

rose ring, flower hair clip.

The Meal

Looking through photos from spring, 

I found my submission to 'The Art House Co-op's' 

'The Meal' Project.

The aim of the project was to capture what people all over the world 

were eating at one point in time - in the UK it was 5pm, 

so I had a late afternoon tea.

I love the beautiful roses n this blouse/jumper - 

very quintessentially english.

Outfit:

Rose jumper, red t-shirt, jeans.

Accessories:

Chunky flower necklace, rose ring.

Climbing in cashmere

It may seem like an unlikely item to wear when going for a ramble...

...but this second-hand cashmere jumper from my grandma

made a great outfit for relaxing when worn with jeans.



A walk among woods beside winding country lanes 

uncovered these amazing locations for photoshoots.

I love the way these mossy roots have twisted

and grown over massive boulders.

Simple yet bold jewellery completes this laid-back ensemble. 

Outfit:

Blue jumper, jeans, blue wellies.

Accessories:

Emerald necklace and ring, vintage red belt,

silver watch, woven bracelets.

A change in the weather

The arrival of snow

brought a perfect photoshoot opportunity.

A gorgeous vintage fur coat was just the thing to keep warm. 

The clear blue sky and bright sunshine

gave a lovely edge to the photos.

And a purple faux fur hat finishes off the outfit.



Outfit:

Vintage fur coat, fair-aisle jumper, khaki trousers, wellies.

Accessories:

Sunglasses, faux fur hat.

Collaboration in the harbour

This is the most recent set of photographs taken for Her Citi,

set in the quaint surroundings of the harbour.

This cute little dress in blue and white,

worn with a red handbag,

looked so bright against the colourful boats. 

I also liked the striking colours of this nautical dress

(posing here, next to the Her Citi kiosk).

Next up was this chic black ensemble

- a cropped sleeved, beaded jumper paired with

a flowing pleated skirt.

This outfit was finished off with heels,

a bun and this printed silk clutch bag.

The photoshoot was rounded off next to the lighthouse,

wearing this brown spotty frilled dress,

worn with tan accessories.

Outfits:

From Her Citi - blue spotty dress, red and blue striped dress,

black beaded jumper and skirt, brown spotted dress,

my own tights and shoes.

Accessories:

Red leather handbag, silk clutch,

tan leather handbag - all from Her Citi.

Collaboration - sand dunes

This is the second half of the beach photoshoot,

with some more dramatic outfits.

This elegant ensemble comprises of this

gorgeous pair of olive palazzo pants,

and the simple black bow top.

Lastly is this vibrant collection of purple pieces

with clashing textures.

The bold, chunky knit cardigan is balanced

by the sleek silk skirt.

And slicked back hair and a big beaded necklace

are the only accessories required.

Outfits:

Black and white bow top, palazzo pants,

leopard print shoes, chunky cardie, silk skirt (all Her Citi).

Accessories:

Floral and black beaded necklaces.

Collaboration on the beach

Here is the second instalment of my winter collaboration with Her Citi,

this time, on one of the nearby beaches.

I really like the cut of this bright blue tweed jacket

- the 60s shape worked well with the baker boy hat.

This cable knit dress was just what was needed

for such a cold day on the beach.

The gold leather belt complements

the soft oatmeal colour of the dress.

Outfit:

Blue jacket, cable knit dress (both Her Citi), jeggings, boots.

Accessories:

Black hat, gold belt (Her Citi), blue scarf.
