If you want to feel like your legs go on for days, you need a paid of Over The Knee Boots in your life! The most practical boots these are not, I'll admit, but for dinner dates or drinks with the girls, these are perfect. These were a present, but you can snap them up for only £35 from Public Desire.
I went for boots with a slightly thicker heel, rather than a stiletto heel, so they were slightly more practical, I wouldn't fall over when I walk with Henry at lightning speed (his walking speed is practically a small jog for me....) and I just knew I'd be more comfortable and less wobbly with a chunkier heel.

Pairing with Black High Waisted Skinnies and an Oversized White Shirt, these boots instantly turn a casual outfit into something a little more chic and sophisticated.

I wanted to share some photos from my perfect Sunday. Henry & I woke up, headed for brunch with friends, then took the bright sunshine and warm spring air as an opportunity to spend the rest of the day outside. I like to think Sunday's are for long walks, lots of food, time with friend and relaxing, but in the city - sometimes I find that hard. I just associate Sundays with the countryside and being at home, cities are so non-stop that sometimes there's no 'sunday' feeling, just the horrible one you get before bed.
But, yesterday was different.
We walked all the way along the seafront, stopping in little shops and museums we'd previously taken for granted and never acknowledged. We sauntered through the laines snooping in every junk shop, antique shop and homeware store we could find. We sipped delicious coffees from The Flour Pot bakery (I need to go back there and try every cake). We sat on the warm stones, filtering through for little bright pieces of sea glass. I used to search for it with my Granny on every seaside holiday when I was little, I had a hawk eye for it and it turns out I still do! We walked home just feeling so happy, content and relaxed.
More Sundays like this one, please.
We all have those days where our make up sits badly on our skin, we feel frumpy in our clothes, we can't seem to get anything right, have bad brain fog and feel pretty down in the dumps about everything, right?
Recently, I've been having far too many of these days. My to-do list is forever growing and never seems to get any shorter and I've got stress coming out of my eyeballs (in the form of tears, of course...) And to be quite honest, I've just about had enough of it. This slump needs to seriously DO ONE.
I thought I'd write a little post about how I'm gonna get my act together (Which means if I've told you, I have to do it, yeah?)
Wake up on time. Stop pressing snooze.
Eat a little bit better. And stop skipping breakfast because you're too lazy to step into the grotty kitchen...
Get a spot of exercise a couple of times a week. Even if it's some squats, crunches and planks on your bedroom floor, or just a power walk along the seafront.
Tidy Room. Tidy Mind. But don't use this to procrastinate...
Stop procrastinating. It's the most unproductive thing you can do.
Stop moaning. It won't make it go away, so just get on with it.
Have a more positive out look on things. Positive Mental Attitude never hurt anybody!
Switch off more. If you don't need to look at a screen, then don't.
Write your To-Do List. Even if it's terrifyingly long.
Take your time to do you skincare routine before bed. You'll thank yourself pre-makeup in the morning.
What do you tell yourself when you're stuck in a rut?
