I had wanted these trousers from Boden for ages. So when they went on sale, I jumped at the chance to make them mine. And, if you're a size 8, 10, 12 or 20 - you can bag yourself a pair too!

I had a lovely week off work at the beginning of the month, which seems a lifetime ago now!

Whenever I go home to Swansea, the sun always seems to shine, like this day. So along with my mum, my brother and his dog, Hari, we went for a walk along the Mumbles Mile.

I've had a lovely week off work, with a few days in Gower and Swansea, day trips to Brecon and Oxford, and plenty of chill out time at home. Perfection.

It's taken me a while to get around to the final instalment in my Santorini series of posts, but here it is! 

The reason my mum and I went to the Greek island was for a family friend's wedding and the location was just idyllic. Set high up on the dramatic Oia clifftop, the views over the ocean were incredible. Such a romantic setting.

I wore a navy and white polka dot jumpsuit, which I'd bought in a Parisian ZARA back in April, with my trusty Boden wedges. The jumpsuit has a gorgeous low, draped back - such a shame I didn't get a chance to capture it!

I had THE BEST time in London at the weekend catching up with my uni girls and I didn't stop laughing. 

The highlight was a silent disco at The Southbank Centre on Saturday night. I've never been to one before and I just loved it! It's hilarious seeing people dancing to a completely different rhythm to the song that you're listening to. Or when you remove your headphones and hear the tuneless chorus of various songs and genres - but that's the best bit! Everyone just lets go and has a bloody amazing time!

Necklace, Accessorize (old) // Top, Topshop (similar) // Shorts, ZARA (old) // Wedges, Boden (old).

I was fascinated by this little church in the cliff as soon as we arrived in Santorini and was excited to find out that the Ancient Thera walking route bypassed  it. 

We set off in the early morning to avoid the scorching sunshine and it was well worth the effort for the amazing views from the top. We even made a little furry friend, Benji, who walked with us the entire way to the church! 

Outfit: Blouse, H&M // Shorts, GAP (similar) // Shoes, H&M // Sunhat, beach shop in Santorini.
