Misguided ghosts


Ray Ban aviators; Witchery cropped angora jumper; J Brand high waist jeans; Wittner desert boots; Lovisa necklace and spiky bracelets; Nixon timeteller




It's funny how certain things act as memory triggers. Certain smells, objects and places have the ability to bring back rushes of feelings, images and smiles.

For me yesterday, it was re-discovering two things:

The Nixon Timeteller my bestie Laura (a.k.a. Make Up Guru) bought me for my birthday all the way from Selfridges in London at the back of my bedside table and remembering the perfect afternoon spent with her at Jones the Grocer, laughing over hilarious stories over multiple burnt coffees and yummy vegan cookies.

The Wittner ankle boots Frankie bought for me as a surprise present last year - he knew I had stopped to look at them in the window every week - so one night, just because, he came into work with a big smile and a big shoebox! I dropped the work I was doing and did a big jump, a scream and gave him a huge hug. Best ever.
