I spent it all on clothes by the looks of things...

If you squint I could almost be in Tuscany (or Durham), but I’m just here in my nice dress with my roots in the big field over the canal again . . . Dress @justine_tabak Trainers @vans_europe

⚡️NEW BLOG POST⚡️DRESSES! I know we aren’t going to that wedding/festival/party/holiday in the immediate future but a nice dress can still be good for the soul. I’ve picked out some beauties for you to look at, all of which would be equally at home on your daily walk. Link to read over on stories, highlights and in profile.

Time was we used to go into town on Saturdays, maybe have a meal, go to an art gallery, see some sights.... Now I point out dead birds in the canal to my husband while the children refuse to even leave the house . . .

What I wore today. Rewind to the summer of 1990 and you’d have seen me somewhere in a field in Hampshire wearing pretty much the same thing. Tie Dye top and cargo trousers. Although, note, I NEVER succumbed to the Global Hypercolour nonsense, who needs to see where your armpits sweat? Just add an ill advised velvet patchwork cap and a pair of Lilac suede kickers and we’re good to go . . . Sweatshirt [gift] @saywhatyouc Trousers @newlook

I am very pleased to be supporting @dailydressedit virtual Pop Up. I went along to the store last year and discovered so many great independent brands. (That same day I had my very first Afternoon Tea too! A great day) This years event was obviously cancelled so @isabelspearman moved it online, highlighting 12 small brands over 12 days. Today is the final day and the turn of @pinkcityprints where this dress is from. It’s called the ‘Isabel’ and I love it! So did a lot of other people it seems, as it sold out pretty quickly. BUT never fear! It’s ready for pre-order and will be shipped in a couple of weeks. 10% of every sale will go to @refugecharity

Today was a properly good day. Wasn’t tempted to have sneaky peek at the MailOnline. Went for a bike ride. Met a friend for a socially distanced walk. Came home to find a lovely delivery of these sweary bracelets from @peachyandwild Definitely a good day . . .

Pleased to report that Big Dave has kept his new collar on for over 24 hours now. We needed something to stop the nightly slaying (and then gifting) of innocent small animals. In the past he has shunned all cat collars. Maybe the addition of a smart bow tie has swayed him . . . Top @andotherstories Best. Shorts.

This is my favourite ‘holiday dress’ it’s been all across the world over the past 4 years, LA, New York, Jamaica, Italy, Vancouver. This year the furthest it’s going is over by the canal down the road. But that’s fine . . . Sunglasses [gift 2019] @alexisamor.eyewear Dress [old] @christydawn Sandals @arizona.l.o.v.e

Out of all the things I miss during this time. THIS place is top of the list. I miss the joy, the heartache, the halftime snack situation, the blazing hot Bovril and even the crappy Ladies toilets. After we fixed up my old bicycle it was the first place I wanted to ride to. One day we shall return to this bus stop in Hounslow

⚡️NEW BLOG POST⚡️Your weekly reminder that it’s Sunday! This week I’ve gone back to my much neglected ‘Wardrobe Staples’ series where I show you how to style something that every one should own. This week it’s KHAKI TROUSERS. A perfect Spring/Summer alternative to jeans if ever there was one. Link to read on stories and highlights as usual. Let me know thoughts below x

It’s a (concrete) jungle out there... thanks to the 400+ people who messaged me yesterday about the sweet potato. Ok ok, I’m sorry I didn’t recognise it. What can I say? I’m a vegetable novice . . .
