Today I popped into (get it) the Scottish fashion pop up in Princes Square. When I heard my favourite Rebecca Torres had some sale and sample pieces on offer I couldn’t resist, despite my skintness after the yucky dentist trip. Not only are there Torres on sale but a range of other fabulous Scottish designers. I was very close to buying the gorgeous Iona Joanne … Continue reading Princes Square Pop Up Shop
Thank god it’s Friday, what a busy and tiring week I’ve have. Just as well I was super organised last weekend and got not one but two outfits photographed. I love this dress I got for my anniversary dinner last year but I’ve not been able to wear it as much as I’d like. Then last weekend I had the bright obvious idea of throwing … Continue reading Cheers to the Freakin Weekend
This post is a bit later than I planned due to it raining all morning. I know I should be used to it living in Scotland and be more organised, but I’ve always been a bit last minute. My lovely sister got me this dress for my birthday. She either knows me far too well or had been poking about on my Pinterest because I’ve … Continue reading Why Does it Always Rain on Me
The thing is it is winter though and it’s freezing. This Rebecca Torres was my New Year’s Eve dress and I’ve been desperate to give it it another outing but tights just don’t do the dress justice. So today I braved the cold by layering up on top and took the opportunity of having a willing photographer to get these shots on the river. I … Continue reading It’s Never Winter when it’s Donna Summer All Year Long
You may have heard me gushing about the divine Chouchou hoods before, I’m in love with them. A little bit of Italian style, in the form of Silvia Pellegrino, has turned the practical hood into a must have fashion accessory. Chouchou celebrated her fourth birthday last week with a lovely little birthday bash at Veldt and took the opportunity to showcase the new S/S14 collection. … Continue reading Chouchou 4th Birthday Celebrations
My first outfit post since I got back from Oz. I’m holding on to that Aussie feeling by trying to work some of the clothes I bought over there into my winter wardrobe. It’s not the easiest and this was not really a practice outfit, I froze walking from car to building, building to car. But hey it shows off the remainder of my tan … Continue reading Big Black Boots, Long Blonde Hair
Yesterday I took a trip down to the Valley in the city centre. This is the hub of all things cool and hip in Brisbane. I spent a good few hours trawling through the mix of designer boutiques and vintage stores. I could have spent a small fortune in the boutiques. Fallow was a favourite hidden on the first floor of what looks like an … Continue reading Hot Summer Days, Rock n Roll
I’m not sure how many outfit photos I’ll be posting from Brisbane. Before I arrived I thought I could get loads of cool outfit photos as I wasn’t needing to wear boring workwear most days. Turns out I massively underestimated the heat, 30degrees and rising makes a sweaty Lauren which does not make for good photos. These are some quick photos I took on the … Continue reading Daisy Dukes, Bikini on Top
The lovely Claire over at TwentySix people sent me this funky sweater. The graphic pattern is super cool and versatile. It great quality for only £26, I went for a large as I wanted mine big and baggy. To show it off properly here’s three different outfits. Paired with thermal leggings and uggs, it’s perfect for winter shopping. The jumper kept me nice and toasty … Continue reading Three Ways to Wear
This week I’ve been unbelievably busy hence no posts. Today though I have a well deserved day off to head to a fancy little conference for work. I’m very lucky that I get to go to this every year. It’s held in the gorgeous Old Course Hotel in St Andrews and I get a little cheeky overnight stay. Since I’m on route to such a … Continue reading I Gotta a Love that Keeps Me Waiting
