Street Style Sunday - Nautical love

Its that time of the year when we are on the brink of summer and we putting together our adventure list of things we want to see and do, summer festivals, city breaks, outdoor adventures and needing stylish but suitable summer clothing, which is why I love this waterproof nautical lines jacket from Trespass and its perfect for my busy lifestyle but still fun and well designed. As you may already know I have a soft spot for Breton stripes and anchor prints so I have paired this jacket up with one of my go-top tops from Boden as well as skinny jeans from Wallis and a pair of UK made Cheeky shoes. I also wanted to say a huge thank-you to everyone who vote for Side Street Style in the BIBS Awards and I am very happy to announce we are now finalists for the Style Category and looking to see some of you at Britmums this year. Why not share your style and join in with Street Style Sunday linkup - anything fashion related goes *Thanks to Trespass for sending me this jacket ......

Quick Nails

I just realised I have not done a nail polish post in a while, this may be because I am a very busy and active person with an equally busy and active toddler and often nail polish lasts a day and then is chipped due to my lifestyle, which leaves me a little uninspired to do a post about it, thats not to say I don't to honest posts when it goes wrong because I do, but I felt I had to share this little red number with you, as I was so pleasently suprised and here is why.... Well first of all I was given this Gold by Giles nail polish in a goodie bag from the bloggers ladies night a while back, and was not asked to review it. I usually don't have much hope in cheap nail polishes holding there own against the outdoors and active toddler play but this at £2.99 surpassed my expectations. It has a great colour, lovely and strong red and was long lasting and it took a few days before  I chipped it - this usually happens within a day of application. It's well worth the money an......

Sunday Instagram Lovelies

 So every week or so I love to share our instagrams from little moments captured. It's been a starnge week, one day raining next day sunny, so it's been filled with BBQ's, cider, walk in the parks, puddles, dens and yummy food. I find that since I don't really drink - one drink is more than enough for me, I then like to make my one special and try new things like the Elderflower cider or organic cider. Trying out some new red lipgloss and elderflower cider A pleasant Cardiff evening walk and making den's outside My new charity shop Queenie mug and veggie falafel hotdog roll Very yummy organic cider Playing in puddles Thanks for reading Side Street Style ...

Masha Ma at London Fashion Week

So I wish I had more time and more days to spend at London Fashion Week, but the time I was there was well spent. I managed to see a few shoes with the first being the collection of Chinese born designer and graduate of St Martins, Masha Ma. With striking knee-high red boots paired with well structured and beautiful tailored garments left me wanting more. I am sure we are going to be seeing more of Masha Ma. ...

Notebook photoshoot love

So I came across this photoshoot in a magazine the other day and simply loved the deep reds, rings and jackets. The one thing I love about the changing seasons is it will soon be time for Mac's and coats (although I would prefer for it to be summer all year round). For some reason this photoshoot reminds me of Paris, I am not sure why. I heart this whole outfit, especially the Miu Miu dress and  the ankle socks I really want this Cerruti sweater and Stella McCartney shoes!! ...
