My Sentimental Heart

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend and enjoying the sunshine! Just a quite reminder that tomorrow marks the end of an era with the closing of Google Reader, so be sure to follow My Sentimental Heart on Bloglovin to keep up to date with all of my new posts! You can also like…

As some of you may be aware, I'm a recent convert to running. Back at the start of 2012, I made it one of my New Year's Resolutions to take up outdoor running, both in an attempt to get fitter and also to set myself a challenge for the year ahead. I was something of an exercise nut before …

Season after season, one of the most anticipated fashion advertising campaigns undoubtedly comes from Mulberry. You might remember that I posted about their under the sea themed spring campaign at the start of the year, and for AW13 they've come up trumps once again. Continuing their long t…

Although there are a lot of online fashion communities around at the moment, I have to confess that a fair few of them have passed me by. Lookbook is something which has always seemed a little bit too time consuming for me, and I'm yet to jump aboard the Pintrest bandwagon, although the online…

Last week, I was lucky enough to be invited along to Laura Ashley's AW13 press day, held at the super swish Il Bottaccio in central London. After styling some of their spring fashion collection for my post over on their blog back in March, I was really excited to see what they have in store fo…

As a rule, I'm generally quite reluctant to step out of my style comfort zone, but sometimes it's great to refresh your wardrobe with a couple of adventurous purchases. I posted last month about my new found love for the jumpsuit, and have been on the lookout for similarly simple pieces ov…

As a rule, my day to day wardrobe is quite casual, and doesn't really veer into formal territory all that often. Whilst this is predominantly due to the fact that my evening ritual of settling down with a cuppa in front of the telly (early granny forever!) doesn't really require anything m…

Whilst the sun has made a few fleeting appearances over the last week or so, in my part of the world at least, the skies have taken on a distinctly formidable appearance, with rain and even the odd rumble of thunder announcing the arrival of the ever unpredictable British summertime. It's also…

In my ongoing search for adaptable wardrobe basics, I've been keen to change my shopping habits, searching for a selection of new stores where I can snap up some staples. As I mentioned a little while ago, & Other Stories is shopping destination which has been on my radar for a good few mo…

If you're a regular reader of this little blog of mine, then you'll know that I'm something of a self-confessed magpie when it comes to jewellery. I've got quite a hefty collection, and rarely (if at all!) leave the house without an assortment of pieces, so I thought I'd take a…

At the moment, the majority of my day to day outfits seem to consist of various combinations of jeans, t-shirts and blouses, and I've been getting plenty of wear out of some recent additions to my wardrobe as the weather has been so lovely. Over recent weeks, I've definitely been leanin…

Well, I don't want to jinx things, but it seems like summer is well and truly upon us! Knowing our luck, I'm sure it will only be here for a matter of days, so I'm definitely making the most of it whilst I can and getting some wear out of some old wardrobe favourites as well as some…

Goodness me, where is the year going?!! I can hardly believe that we've made it to June already- and finally the weather seems to be delivering that much-needed (and much-anticipated!) burst of early summer sunshine. Now that we're halfway through 2013, I'm busy taking stock of everyth…

I don't want to speak to soon, but it seems that summer is finally with us! Knowing the British weather I doubt it will be around for long, so I'm definitely going to make the most of the sunshine whilst it's here. It certainly makes a change from this time last week, where the grey ski…

If you follow me on Twitter, or have read a couple of my recent posts, then you'll know that I've developed a not so secret obsession with Game of Thrones. After devouring the box sets, I've been working my way through George R.R. Martin's books and have suddenly taken to using th…
