VALENTINE’S DAY 2021

Valentine’s Day 2021 was a different one! Whether you would have normally celebrated with your SO or treated yourself to a Galentine’s boozy brunch, this year was undoubtably different for everyone. I spent my day gearing up for an extra special trip to the local Costa Coffee drive thru for a 5* Gingerbread latte. Thinking that perhaps a take-away coffee was a bit sad, I decided to fashion a yummy homemade Afternoon Tea. Miniature Victoria sponge cakes and Mumma Jo’s 5* cheese scones were undoubtably the stars of the show.

Despite not being able to go anywhere, this red Zara Love collection was too irresistible not to try. I will let you in to a secret…I wore a cream sweatsuit all of actual Valentine’s with minimal make-up, but shooting these delectable red pieces earlier in last week gave me the minuscule of escapism that I craved.

In years to come, how will you look back on your lockdown Valentine’s Day?!

GREEN WITH ENVY

Happy New Year! I wanted to start this post with a huge thank you to all of my followers for supporting me and taking interest in my posts. Fashion is an absolute love of mine and there’s nothing more rewarding than the proof of my blog captivating visitors. The first post to kickoff 2018 is this LASULA ‘Green Fur’ jacket. I’m loving the widespread use of unusual colours in fashion. The deep green of the faux fur is an eye-catcher – a colour that I adore. The green tone is perfectly paired with an all-black outfit. The lightness of the fur fibres allows the material to flow aesthetically in the wind, revealing the multitude of tones of the green jacket. The jacket can see you through glamorous events in the early wintery months of this year or can be dressed down for a casual chic style. Wearing faux fur adds charm and an element of excitement to an outfit.

DISNEYLAND DREAMING

Published on August 14, 2017August 15, 2017 by houseofmaddisonLeave a comment

Disney is “The Happiest Place on Earth” they say and I agree one hundred per cent! Standing at the bottom of Main Street with Sleeping Beauty’s Castle on view in the distance and a perfect blue sky above – all of my childhood memories come flooding back. Disney has it’s very own sights, sounds and smells and I never get tired of them. It’s no surprise then that a trip to Disneyland Paris was the perfect way to celebrate the end of A-levels. When it comes to styling and outfit for a day in the park, comfort is paramount but I didn’t want to sacrifice style for comfort entirely. Zara sale again gifted a perfect white cotton top; loosely fitted with an elasticated bardot neckline, a cute tie back and this season’s obligatory statement sleeve. I paired this with an adorable sage green, frill bottomed, double layer mini (not Minnie!) from H&M. Of course, no outfit for a day in the park would be complete without a pair of comfy trainers and a pair of sparkly Minnie Ears!

CITRINE & FLORAL

Head to toe in eye-popping florals, this co-ord silk suit is undoubtedly a look-at-me style choice. The waist-enhancing tie belt contributes a sense of shape to the suit, contrasting against the loose flowing form. The gold trimmed pearl buttons embellish the cuff of the kimono style, wrap blazer in a subtle, yet classy way providing yet another key trend of Summer 2017. The cropped, loose fit trouser compliments the jacket to create a relaxed, slouchy suit. The background of perfect mid-blue against the striking bold summer florals packs a punch, but it works! The curious new Citrine colour of the stilettos and clutch (so ‘en Vogue’) is a sophisticated tone against the intense hues of the floral suit.

PINK POPLIN SHIRT

Finally England is feeling the warm luscious Spring weather. For me this means I can finally peel away black clothing from my wardrobe and indulge in creams and other light hues for the Spring/Summer months. I absolutely adore summer fashion, the freedom and lightness of clothing is to be celebrated. Here I have paired my cream culottes with a PINK POPLIN SHIRT from (yet again) ZARA … Zara have it just right – the accented sleeve with a bow back, combined with the beautiful baby pink colour is perfect to wear with any summer bottoms, whether it be jeans, culottes, shorts or skirts. I accessorised the look with my ‘to-die-for’ nude bow shoes and the flirty frilly bucket bag (which I ADORE). The perfect outfit for Spring/Summer 2017.

FULL-SLEEVES

If you haven’t got a blue shirt…get one! It’s the key piece to carry you through Spring into Summer, they are plastered all over the high-street. So … you’ve probably guessed by now I am addicted to Zara. With an extra long tie which can be adapted to your desired length; as you would expect from Zara the shirt has a good quality cotton mix which holds the shape well. The exaggerated Victorian puff sleeve adds a high-fashion vibe and hits the main trend this season – sleeves. The light blue colour is the perfect hue for pairing with creams, whites and classic denim pieces this Spring.

TWISTED MULES

S/S17 is all about meticulous fashion; subtle detailing is key this season to create the classiest look. These white twisted mule trainers from Topshop are perfectly in keeping with the detailed trend. The twisted top of the mules would compliment plain denim, while the bright white colour creates a summer vibe, contrasting against early Spring and Summer tans. The mule shape allows extra comfort in the summer, also giving more protection than a flip flop style. These are a fab twist on traditional mules and trainers, creating a contemporary trendy visual.
