Through His Eyes

“In this fake world, with his love so true

And him always by my side, it feels so good..

False images everywhere, world full of lies

I see my true self in his enticing eyes.... “

More Self Love

"Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.

I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size

But when I start to tell them,

They think I'm telling lies.

I say,

It's in the reach of my arms

The span of my hips,

The stride of my step,

The curl of my lips.

I'm a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That's me."

~ Maya Angelou

PSC-brand is the gift that keeps on giving. I recently blogged about one of their perfect white t-shirts (here), and their pink 'Buy Me A Drink' sweater (here). When I saw the brands similar 'More Self Love' version of the sweater, I couldn't resist snapping it up!

As cosy as it's pink counterpart, the cream jumper has already become a staple in my wardrobe. It looks great teamed with short skirts, jeans of all shapes and styles, and is absolutely perfect worn with cool denim cut-off shorts on a cool summer evening.

I love the message on this sweater; 'More Self Love'; it is my new moto, my end-of-year resolution, and I will wear it emblazoned close to my heart, so that I don't forget it.

T-Shirt Right There

"T-shirt right there

Your hair messed up like a Guns-N-Roses video

Ooh ooh so hot

Still got it up in my head, you were moving around in the TV light

I ain't ever seen anything like, your dress, my floor, the way you wore my t-shirt"

~ Thomas Rhett

The easiest solution to off-duty dressing is a great white t shirt; nothing beats it for style, comfort, and versatility. A white tee can be worn all year round, with shorts throughout the summer months, or with a sleek blazer or chunky knits when chiller days kick in. It is the perfect tran-seasonal piece.

Finding the elusive perfect white t-shirt is no easy task though. I had thought for a long time that it might actually be an impossible task! Thanks however, to one of the coolest brands out there, my search is finally over. PSC Brand (previously blogged here) is known for its witty and clever slogans, and they have very quickly become the go-to place for cool-girl fashion.

This particular t-shirt is now sold out (Sorry! You have to be quick to nab a PSC Brand tee) but fear not, they have a cornucopia of many other perfect t-shirts on their website. Don't dilly dally though, grab them while you can, I promise you won't regret it!

The Picture Fails: Blog Outtakes

"She would have her picture taken.
She came dressed beyond description,
Dressed in jewels and in satin
Far too gorgeous for an empress.

Grand, heroic was the notion:
Yet the picture failed entirely:
Failed, because she moved a little,
Moved, because she couldn't help it."

Buy Me A Drink

"Drink to me only with thine eyes,

And I will pledge with mine;

Or leave a kiss but in the cup,

And I’ll not look for wine.

The thirst that from the soul doth rise

Doth ask a drink divine;

But might I of Jove’s nectar sup,

I would not change for thine"

~ Ben Johnson

No matter how sophisticated and polished your style might be, a relaxed, off-duty, slogan t-shirt or jumper has become a staple in every girls wardrobe. The brand all the cool fashionistas-in-the-know turn to for this laid back look is UK based PSC-brand. Known for their tongue-in-cheek, witty, and often irreverent slogans and prints, PSC avoids everything that is stereotyped, focusing instead on personality, attitude and culture. Their pink 'buy me a drink' jumper has to be the most Saturday appropriate jumper of all time!

This pink beauty is a piece that will never go out of style. It is a throw it on, wear it anywhere sweater that is as cosy as it is chic. I styled it here with a pair of girlfriend jeans (formerly boyfriend jeans I stupidly had altered for a tighter fit), a super cool pair of leopard print shoes, and a gorgeous Nadia Minkoff cognac toned tote. It's the perfect transeasonal outfit for the glorious Autumnal weather we are currently enjoying in dear ol' Blighty.

The Silent Pool Gin Distillery was an inspired location to photograph my pink drink sweater. It sort of found us rather than the other way 'round. We drove past it on our way to another location and couldn't resist popping in. Huge thanks to the lovely staff who allowed us to shoot at our leisure. It's a fascinating place, and well worth a visit.
