When it comes to extreme travel plans, I'm trying to keep things real these days. The less the better. But, I think you all know when it comes to Ralph Lauren, I'd happily travel on planes, trains and automobiles to get to any event honoring the brand. Hence the reason I found myself back in London for 24 hours on Monday night - to celebrate 10 years of Ralph Lauren bringing extreme style to the Wimbledon tennis tournament.
On Sunday evening I boarded a red eye to London from New York and arrived a little worse for wear. I was saved, however, by the lovely folks over at super salon Paul Edmonds, as I nearly fell out of my chair for lack of sleep the night before. Yeah, yeah, I know - first world problems. These folks put me right again and for that I am eternally grateful (check out...

Social Media Envy
As people and mainly young women on the internet I think it’s safe to say we all suffer from a bit of social media jealously/envy/anxiety whatever you want to call it. I personally do think envy is a natural an healthy trait to have as long as it doesn’t destroy or consume you. Admittedly I barely go a day without using at least one social media network. Social media has become such a big part of out lives, the way we share details about ourselves and in turn the way we view the people around us.
It’s highly unlikely that someone is going to share their electric bill on instagram or vlog themselves having argument with their partner. I estimate about 100% of people purely use social media to share the best parts of their life. I know I do. And I think that’s okay. Just remember that 80%...

So if you're a long time reader of my blog you'll know that me and my family go on holiday to the same hotel every year without fail. I didn't go last year as I decided to have a summer pursuing my own life rather than doing a thing with them. However this year I decided to just go ahead, join everyone and go again. It's only me, my brother, Step Dad and my Mum, so not a whole crew of us (I have a big family) so it should be pretty stress-free and easy going.
We're off to Turkey, which is looking to be a super hot, relaxing break. Im totally booking myself in for a Turkish Spa treatment as soon as I get there and then taking up residence right next to the pool to catch some serious...
Hair: How to get sweeping waves
A few months ago you may remember I teamed up with Babyliss and Paul Percival to introduce a sleek look for the hair for fashion week. Well, we just happened to pull together another look and one that couldn't be more opposite to the original. We went from pin straight to big and bouncy with curls and Paul taught me more than a few lessons in the process. For example - do you know the difference between makes waves and curls with your tongs? Prepare to have your mind blown...

Sale battles
H&M coat | or similar
JOSEPH knit | sale favorite | budget
CHARLIE MAY pants | or similar
BAM-B 'Anuket' ring
CHLOE bag | or in python
KURT GEIGER shoes | similar | python verison
My never ending love for culottes continues, this season my favorite pair comes in true 70’s spirit - frayed denim. A magical word this summer as I wish every piece to come with a raw hem. Is this too much? It’s been sitting in my shopping cart all weekend, I’m still undecided, mostly distracted by all those other open sale tabs. This week the new season vs. sale season battle gets serious as stakes are upped by both parties every day (party indeed, dancing emoji), which side are you on? I’m attempting to be smart - the list reads less black, no panic buys and things that really makes a difference in...
