i recently read an insta post which re-shaped the way i looked at 'sad last times' with the focus instead on the subsequent, wonderful '1st times'.  i've just hit full effect menopause so i decided to apply that filter to my current menopause experience.  read on for the 1st in 'my menopause journey' series and my quest to de-old menopause x

A chance encounter in an orange bikini made me realise I've had a very specific personal style for well over 20 years.  Read on for a style-led trip down memory lane and a summary of the 18 hero pieces I've had in my wardrobe since the 90's. 70's babies will relate!

these images share summery, vintage tones which take me back to my childhood.  colours are equally muted and vibrant - reminding me of the lollies we ate, the adults we wanted to be, and the big fake plastic jewels we used for dress-ups.  i hope this sparks a lovely trip down memory lane for you too x
