R-r-r-r-r-rioo!


R-r-r-r-r-riooooooooooo, closer to London than ever before! The mastermind creatives at Kate Spade NY teamed up with Nikki Tibbles of Wild at Heart for a Rio de Janeiro themed window display that won the Chelsea in Bloom Gold Award for retailers in the neighborhood of the annual show. (Rightfully so!)
With the Chelsea flower show just around the corner from the store, blooms were in full swing, it was lovely seeing happy shoppers with their exotic purchases and extravagant greenery.
I love the mix Kate Spade offers, beautifully crafted pieces injected with a child-like creativity with the most professional execution; So many beautiful vibrant patterns, details and quirky designs.
The display definitely got me in the mood for summer, slight wanderlust kicking in; next trip? Yes please!

Show Time


A short sweet post while I’m working on a new illustration collection. I recently had the pleasure of attending a Cabaret evening at CafĂ© de Paris in London. A barrel of laughter, amazing three course meal and the sweetest cocktails in town; this night does not disappoint. The acts were very entertaining, well engaged with the audience and there was a lovely relaxed dining atmosphere. If you are local and stuck for ideas on a Friday night, I definitely recommend this. Enjoy!

Primrose Hill


We had glorious sunshine in London, the past weekend was the warmest day of 2014 so far; naturally crowds of people flocked to the cities hot spots. I visited Primrose Hill on Sunday, a buzzing atmosphere, picnics, ball games, ice cream cones, iced fruit drinks – everything you imagine a summers day to be. The beauty of this spot is the view point, you can see London’s famous landmarks from the top of the hill, London Eye, The Shard, The Gherkin, St Pauls Cathedral and many more. Conveniently at the side of the park there are plenty of food stalls to satisfy your appetite and cute cafes / pubs, I spent the afternoon watching my friends play American football, oodled over the adorable puppies running around and generally people watching while catching some rays and topping up on my vitamin D.


I have been a huge fan of the ‘co-ords’ trend for a while, if you follow my twitter you will know I recently wore a bottle green botanical print ensemble from Zara. This blue striped set is a Zara purchase too, an angular peplum skirt with printed stripes complimenting the figures curves, teamed with a boxy T shirt shaped crop top that has a beautiful pinched box peat design feature on the back. I’m looking forward to pairing these up separately this summer; I already have a couple of outfit ideas in mind, so stay tuned. I hope you all enjoyed the sunshine!
