  • Blog Of The Month | Seeking Style

    2 Seeking Style
    This month’s BOTM is ‘Seeking Style
    In 3…indie cool, carefree and creative 
    Blog Style…a wonderful mix of Fracois Hardy and Patti Smith with an urban twist 
    Why I keep going back…Cali-cool radio DJ by day and blogger by night Jennifer started her blog in 2011, documenting her style and inspiration. It’s a lovely personal diary of fashion, music, food, lifestyle, movies etc and you would find it hard not to come away from Seeking Style without having found a new thing to love. Jennifer’s own style is an infusion of Euro-chic and Coachella festival attendee, a mix of thrifted and high-street, but never boring.
    Let me know what you think!

    Keep on wishing…

  • Blog Of The Month | Classy Girls Wear Pearls

    Classy Girls Wear Pearls 'Blog of the Month'
    Another new feature! As part of my vow to showcase just how awesome this community is I’ll be featuring one of my favourite blogs every month. January’s Blog of the month is ‘Classy Girls Wear Pearls‘.
    In 3…Sophistication, Prep, High-living
    Blog Style…real life Blair Waldorf mixed with Ivy League charm and a touch of Kate Middleton glamour. 
    Why I keep going back…Run by New England-er Sarah Vickers, ‘Classy Girls…’ showcases some seriously high class all-american style that will leave you drooling over tweed blazers, Brooks brothers dresses and enviable kitten heels. Not only a fabulous showcase of good quality and truly elegant dressing the blog also gives us a glimpse into the dashing lives of Sarah and her equally sharp dressed friends – think polo matches and regattas and trips to the Newport marina. Like a Stateside Made In Chelsea, without the bitchy storylines and annoying relationship drama. 
    Let me know what you think!

    Keep on wishing…
