Some pictures from yesterday before we went swimming in the sea! Saunton is my favourite beach in North Devon, a mile long with the most amazing views; we ventured past all the surfers you can see in the first picture to run into the sea and leap into the surf. Tomorrow I'm exploring a place called the 'Valley of the rocks' out on the moors, if I don't come back you know where I am!
The weather was finally nice enough the other day for me to start wearing some of my SS12 collection, which as you can now see from my tidied side bar, is now available to buy online. Jen's been in town for the last few days and I've been enjoying relaxing in London; going to newly discovered coffee shops, eating cupcakes for breakfast and generally doing things that I don't usually get to enjoy!

So, I have super exciting news to tell everyone! This week I appointed HPR to do the press for Charlie May, my AW12 collection will be hanging in their showroom for their press day IN A WEEK! On top of that I have my first stockist - BENGT. They'll be selling my SS12 as of May and my AW12 as of September!
How much more excited could I be!?

It's that magical lovey dovey day today (grooaaaaan) and I've team up with Sunglass Shop and Le Specs to give one of my lucky readers this pair of Le Specs Runaways that I was loving on the blog a few weeks back!
Everyone knows sunglasses are the chicest winter accessory, even Karen Walker was giving away free pairs at her AW show yesterday and these can be your for free too! All you have to do is follow Sunglass shop on Twitter and Facebook and leave a comment here with your name and email.
I'll be running the giveaway for a week before announcing the winner, good luck!
I recently discovered Australian brand Le Specs through Sunglass Shop and I couldn't believe I hadn't heard of them before. Their low price points of around £50 immediately struck me as surprising, being that the campaign and frames themselves are so high fashion. After doing some research I discovered that Le Specs brought out a collaboration with Henry Holland last year, which is available to buy now. See the striking campaign images below, but I'm getting a little ahead of myself. The glasses I'm wearing above are from the main collection (also available to buy now), called Runaways; I fell in love with them for their chunky black design, and general minimalism. -Obviously.
Wearing: Won Hundred coat, Antipodium knit, Complex Geometries skirt, Alexander Wang shoes, Tom Ford Malin sunnies This Won Hundred coat has proven to be a coat I can't live without; it's thick, warm and has such deep pockets, I can leave the house without needing to take a bag. Score! Also, I realise my new shoes aren't overly complimented by the thick fleece lined winter tights, but it's super cold in London at the moment - until it warms up a bit this is how it goes. If only my Wangs were fleece lined!
Not just treats in the form of food at the My Wardrobe press day but lots of treats to be available to buy online very soon too. I've personally got my eye on the Theyskins Theory bag pictured last, which actually dropped a few days ago but sold out in the same day! Damn. All the accessories were pretty gorge, Camilla Skovgaard and Philip Lim, mmmm. I don't know if it was just the cold either, but I seemed to have been photographing a lot of cosy looking jumpers by Acne and Burberry too. Which item is your favourite?
