The Cut

Jumper Playboy for Primark// Ripped Jeans Zara

Today was my customising day.....literally the day were I will throughly go through old clothing and place ones I no longer want in a charity bag for an amazing charity called Clothes for Charity. Today was my partners clothing clean out.....and low and behold did I see some amazing items. One being this Playboy jumper from Primark that he had never worn. After asking his permission to have and cut the jumper, I went to work.

As I was using kitchen scissors and not shearing scissors I had quite a job to do. Luckily I had a natutral guidline and was able to keep a steady hand. Now as many of you know Londons' summer has been truly unacceptable! The sun has hardly made its presence known. Due to constant changes in the temperature from high to low not high to high, this jumper is my go to. It keep me warm during the summer nights and cool throughou the day.

For anyone who is reading this and interested in customising clothes I would recommend you start of with a small project like this. It is low in costs and effective. Give it a try and dont forget to tag me in any custom designs via instagram.

                                        Top Zara // Skirt H&M // Shoes Public Desire // Bowler Bag Zara

So today as per usual was a dinner night but, with the in laws!!! By chance my other halfs dad finally accepted the offer to take him out for a dining experience at Duck and Waffle. So I decided to go all glam for the occassion. I recently found this amazing stenciled crochet top from Zara during their sale and paired it with a long grey skirt which I have had for years and my Public Desire lace up shoes in Kalia as the lace up design contrasted amazingly well with the top.

Lipstick worn was Mac Smoked Purple and Nightmoth Liner.

So most stores in the UK are currently mid way through their summer sales and as you all know I love a little bargain. I headed straight to my fav online store ASOS and purchased this cute little number.

Paired with my Zara leather jacket and some black heels- my date night in Kensington was calling!

Surrounded by close family and friends I had an amazing night with my loved ones.

Off to Carnby Street

Jacket H&M // Top Brandy Melville // Jeans Asos // Shoes Primark // Bag Chanel

So most sunday me and the Mr will head out for lunch and today we decided to go to one of our fav haunts Carnaby street.... After a quick peak in Liberty, we ended up in Ping Pong for some dim sum and some sneaky cocktails (Hong Kong Colada is my fav!! ). Then headed to Printworks for a scrumptious Sunday lunch and a stroll across the canal. 

Sundays are so my best days of the week.
