If a budget wedding is on the cards, as it is for us, everything you buy is scrutinised with the “do we really need this?” question. It’s not about being ‘stingy’ it’s about only getting what you really want and need out of your big day. For me, the dress and what I wear is important, of course, but it’s not the be all and end all of my day. I haven’t been dreaming of a wedding and a big white dress since I was a little girl. I’ve dreamt of a happy family since I was a little girl and that’s what our wedding day is all about for me.
Mixing textures: Faux fur, leather look & borg
This winter has seemed to go on for ever, right? I feel like hardly a day’s gone past when I’ve not worn my aviator jacket because it’s just possibly the warmest thing that I’ve bought this season.
I wanted to change things up and *try* to wear a different coat for once so this Primark borg teddy coat came into play! It’s so cute, surprisingly warm and I think it was only £20. I don’t think it’s available in stores anymore because like the psychos that the fashion industry are, the spring stuff is already out! There’s a similar piece here from New Look on ASOS which is also amazing so if you’re still in the market for a teddy coat there’s definitely some out there on the high street.
6 super cute autumn wardrobe essentials
Autumn is going to catch up with us quicker than we think, I’m sure of it! It’ll soon be September and time to pack away the sandals and get back into our boots. I’ve been loving some of the new in pieces on the high street at the moment and thought these 6 pieces would be perfect for the seasonal transition. They can all work together as well so they’re great if you’re a capsule wardrobe chick like I wish I was.
A Day Out with Oasis, #BessieTheBus & The Great British Food Festival
A few weeks ago, on a (partly-sunny) Sunday, Luke & I popped down to Hardwick Hall, just outside of Nottingham and checked out the Great British Food Festival. This is where Oasis’ crazy little shop-on-wheels Bessie The Bus was based for a stop of her giant tour of Great Britain! She’s been on the road since the 17th of May and is hitting up 250 stops on her tour, so see if you can catch her – it’s a whole load of cuteness.
