Fashion related (and totally non-fashion related) things that have made my world go round over the last seven days…
- Florals. This week I took part in Katrina’s new Any Size feature, styling an outfit that features florals. Naturally I went for printed floral trousers, owing to the fact that I’ve built up quite a collection in recent years, and it was the first time I’ve ever really taken part in a post like that so it was fun to step out of my comfort zone and share my style on someone else’s blog.
- Field fashion. Tuesday’s post was shot at a festival, but I wrote about what it’s like to photograph outfits in public, you know, in front of friends, family and members of the public. I’d love to hear your thoughts, so have a read and share your tips for getting over the fear of public photography.
- Winning. I was chuffed to bits when I found out I won Sarah‘s competition to win a copy of The Busy Girl’s Guide to Cake Decorating by Ruth Clemens, above, and said book arrived yesterday. Needless to say I want to make ALL THE THINGS so I’ll clearly need to stock up on royal icing and food colouring the next time I go to the supermarket.
- Selfridge. Yesterday I posted about the television programme that I finally got around to watching, six months after it first aired; Mr Selfridge. I recorded it yonks ago and have finally been able to watch the whole series over the course of a couple of weeks. I love the costumes and the way the women are all so immaculately put together, yet very modest with it. Expect outfit posts of me trying to emulate Valerie Maurel in the near future…
What’s been rocking your world this week? Let me know by commenting below…
Love the sound of those printed floral trousers, but sadly when I clicked on the link, it didn’t bring anything up.
My week was rocked by going to Edinburgh Fringe Festival and seeing 10 great shows over three days. I wanted to stay longer…

How exciting that you went to the Fringe! I’ve only been once, just for the day while we were visiting family in Scotland, but it was such an exciting atmosphere, I’d love to go again : )
I couldn’t find the pics either :( I’m going to HAVE to join in the Any Size feature next week…it’s leopard print! Delhi rocked my week, Al and I spent four days exploring the city – was perfect
