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?!

Forget hot pink…pink is TOTALLY HOT! The most daring colour is a hit for the AW18 season. People tend to avoid bright colours for the fear of looking garish or standing out too much, well I say go for it! This delectable rose pink silk shirt from mango at only £30 was a no brainer for my bank account, it was mine without question. The stunning shine of the shirt can be complimented with a matte white leather skirt and stiletto heels – as styled here – or played down with white culottes and a pretty pump. The lightweight flow of the shirt makes it perfect to tuck and the shade couldn’t be more beautiful. This look can be carried right through to SS19 so it’s a keeper.
