A Few Things I’ve Been Thinking About

I’ve got some stuff to get out on… well, not paper, but a good old-fashioned blog. I’m obsessed with fashion, style, culture, design, and business. I love my career, and there are about ten thousand project ideas constantly flowing through my head. This is my space to share some of my thoughts.

My new Coat

My new Coat

My New CoatI was a hot, sweaty mess. Our washing machine had broken, leaving me with six IKEA bags of dirty washing in search of a DIY launderette. Between finding parking, struggling not to drop £40 worth of coins for the machines, I was not having a chic moment. I...

The Voicenote Vault

I love a voice note. While most of my closest friends live in other cities and countries, listening to 4-9 minute voice notes on the mundane and the marvellous is a treasured part of my day. Hundreds of miles might separate us, but through those messages, I get to hear everything, from moans about housework to passionate debates about love, feminism, men, fashion, careers, motherhood, and finance. Of course, I cannot share everything from the voice note vault; a lot of it is mundane, some deeply private, and a whole lot completely inappropriate for anywhere other than a deep, dark Reddit forum. But in this vault, I’ll be sharing the wisdom, wit, and raw honesty of female friendships.

Bridal, A.K.A. The Wedding of the Century

Now, it might seem a tad arrogant to describe your own wedding as the ‘wedding of the century,’ and perhaps it is – I’m certainly not aware of all my flaws, but I’m not so unaware to think my ego is as small as it could be. Or perhaps it’s not arrogance at all, but simply an ex-bridal designer, who has dreamed about her wedding since she was old enough to remember, waited all her life for this, and now has the accumulation of 30 years of ideas to realise. All that to say, I have some really f***ing cool stuff in my head, and a fiancé who definitely secretly loves the wild ideas and over-the-top suggestions. Think Giovanna Battaglia’s 2016 wedding, but in Scotland, with probably around 1% of her budget, and a can-do attitude.
