UK Lifestyle blog consisting of fashion, Travel and Interviews!

The content of this post is unfortunately of what I can only dream of, trying to distract myself from the pressures of uni work I decided that it would be a good idea to go onto the net-a-porter website and look at shoes. This ended up being a very bad idea as I fell in love with most of the pairs they had for sale and haven't stopped thinking about the majority of them since. However I did think that it would be a nice idea to show you my top 8 pairs (it took me a good while to narrow them down).



1. Carven - £320, This pair of shoes have a very classic style to them and the pastel blue colour is lovely  and suits the vintage style, the bow detail on the back of the heel is also a really cute touch. These heels would look great with a pair of jeans and a plain white shirt or would look just a as good dressed up for a night out.
2. Charlotte Olypmia - £625, This pair I think has to be my favourite of them all, although they're ridicously high, the lilac and gold combination is just too gorgeous not too fall in love with. These shoes also have the option of having an ankle strap and the flower is a clip so you are able to attach it anywhere on the shoe!
3.Charlotte Olympia - £820, These are my dream wedding shoes, totally impracticable but they're just so pretty! Another gorgeous detail about the shoes is that you receive a pair of blue trimmed stockings to wear on your wedding day as your something blue, which is such a nice touch!
4.Mulberry - £495, Studded t-bars; very on trend and giving the cute conservative t-bar a bit of an edge. What's not to love?
5. Gucci - £440, Like the Carven shoes, I think these are a very beautiful classic pair that will last you a life time as the colour is perfect for autumn/winter but the style will also bright them through to spring/summer. 
6. Christan Louboutin -£635, If I ever owned these shoes (and with that price tag I'm not sure I ever will) I do not think I could bring myself to wear them. I'd be scared of breaking my ankle with the astonishing heel height of 6.5 inches. However they are the perfect trashy Barbie shoe.
7. Hunter - £95, The most practical shoe out of them all especially with England's weather. A modern take on the classic Hunter welly boot. I really love the biker boot style, I think they're great for the summer festival season but also a great way to stay stylish during the winter.
8. Charlotte Olympia - £465, These are the shoes that first introduced me to my now favourite shoe designer, Charlotte Olympia and the classic kitten slipper. I do not know one girl that doesn't want these flats, they're practically every bloggers dream, although the price tag is a little bit crazy for a pair of flats!
I have been a huge fan of Tim Walker's work for a good few years now, it all started when I choose to explore the theme of fantasy for my A level photography. So when I saw that Somerset House were hosting an exhibition of his work I knew I had to go. The exhibition is amazing, it combines props, photographs and words beautifully to show the audience a real insight to him and how he goes about producing his work. I've never been to an exhibition where I have felt like I am part of one of the artist's photographs. The exhibition is free and is on right up until the 27th January so you have ages to go and see it, but I recommend you go sooner rather than later as you really do not want to miss out!








After the amazing exhibition we headed to Soho for out first trip to the lovely Breakfast Club cafe , I had the veggie all American Pancakes which had pancakes (obviously), eggs, veggie sausage, mushrooms, home-style fried potatoes and maple syrup (see photo below). It was my first time having eggs for ages and I was pleasantly surprised that I didn't hate them as much as I thought I would. My boyfriend went for the Half Monty which had Bacon, sausage, eggs, beans, tomato and toasted multigrain bloomer. There were so many things on the menu I wanted to try; I definitely will have to be take a trip there again. As a vegetarian there are plenty of things to choose from, the next two on my list are the breakfast burrito and the fantastically named "when Halloumi met Salad wrap", I highly recommend this place!




It's my 20th birthday in less than a month (27th June to be exact) and I was thinking about what I would like to have for my birthday, this list is a bit unrealistic but I can dream! I was thinking about asking for things for my bedroom as I am moving house soon and want to make my bedroom look really girly and cosy, but I think I can buy those things myself over the summer. A few things on the list I have wanted for ages and others are new found loves of mine. My top 3 gifts on the list have to be the Mulberry bracelet, Burberry Perfume which smells amazing and may even beat my  current favourite scent Chloe by Chloe and the gorgeous bronzing highlighter Benefit Sun Beam.
