Going Green- My Journey

Photography www.ionamacleod.com 

So my new years resolution was not just to attempt 'dry Jan' (and fail) but to actually implement a fitness and health regime into my current lifestyle. 

I often find if you make drastic lifestyle changes you end of relapsing after two weeks because your body is not use to it- ever gone on a health kick and made yourself go to the gym every day for a week? 

Didn't last long did it dear...

There were certain activities I decided to take up in the new year, such as yoga on a regular basis, cycling to work and just generally eating better. These were just some gental nudges I created for myself that steered me in the right direction to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Ever heard the saying 'less is more'? In this instance it worked, I had more energy and drive to actually WANT to carry myself to the gym, after two weeks my body craved the feeling of being 'worked out' and I felt amazing.

So my biggest tip to get on that fitness bandwagon is ..baby steps! Select a few things you enjoy doing and slowly slot them into your routine. 

I'd love to know how you all get on! So shoot me an email one time lefashionfetish@hotmail.com

Wishful Thinking..NYE

Photography www.ionamacleod.com

Wow, what an amazing year it has been! This year has been full of challenges for me, there have been extreme highs which came with extreme lows, its probably been the year I have learnt the most about myself. After a year of neglecting my blog due to work commitments in 2013 I picked up where I left off this year and to be honest its been the best thing I ever did, this blog brings me so much joy, the shoots, the relationships I have made, the places I've visited and most importantly it's brought me and my photographer/best friend Iona closer than ever. A friend once told me that a blog is like a plant the more light, love and water you give it the more it flourishes, and it's so true!

 I have a lot of fun things planned for 2016 so keep following me to see, I am also very excited to announce that I will be 'vlogging' in the new year (so keep your eyes peeled for that!).  Click the link below to read the full Free People blog post and find out what my NYE traditions are.

Keeping It Caj

Shop the look;

Jeans- Aeterna Style

Jumper- H&M

Shoes- ASOS (Similar Here)

Bag- Free People

Last Sunday me and Iona ventured out to see Big Ben. Discovering new locations to shoot on is one of my main focuses at the moment, I love spending a whole day shooting/exploring to try make the shoot as productive as possible. As well as exploring London I get to share it with Iona and we always have a laugh.  This week I discovered a brand called Aeterna Style they do some beautiful pieces so make sure to check out their website. The distressed jeans have a stunning embellished patch on the right pocket which really adds that bohemian touch to them so of course I had to have them. The Jumper is an over sized fringed number from H&M (which is finally on the website now and a total bargain for those of your seeking a cheap Winter must have). I like to roll the sleeves back on my jumpers and I always buy a size 2 sizes to big for me, because what is a jumper without a slouch? The bag is from Free People (I know, I'm border line obsessed with them) and has now become my go to hand bag, even though its quiet a statement bag it surprisingly goes with everything, they do loads of different shades so be sure to click the outfit link to check them out!

The Jumper You Need This Season

Photography www.amandajulca.com 

Wearing all Free People

There are a few key staples I need this season..however this heavy knit jumper from Free People has been fast tracked to the top of my list. I feel like Winter has sprung on me so quick that I now have gaps in my wardrobe, and who likes gaps? eh? I hate Winter clothes shopping, I find it easy to create outfits in my mind but when I go shopping the clothes never seem to live up to my expectations.  Jumper shopping, for a start, is a whole different world now a days. There are SO many different types, roll neck, long sleeve, sleeveless, cable, turtle neck, cashmere, wool, jumper dresses- no wonder we are indecisive as woman when it comes down to Fashion look how many DAM options there are! My advise would be to try go into stores and try jumpers on before you buy them, it's true what they say 'try before you buy'! Keep a look out for my upcoming post about 5 wardrobe investments for this season to see if you have any gaps in your wardrobe you need to fill!

Leather Weather

Photography www.ionamacleod.com

What I am wearing;

Skirt- Urban Outfitters

Jumper- Free People

Shoes- Topshop

I love leather however in Summer, its a no go for me. Especially in London, on a hot Summers day when you're commuting to work, leather is not my friend! This beautiful leather skirt is from Urban Outfitters surprisingly, it was from their premium range last year over Christmas, the leather is 100% real and it really is perfect for Winter. I am conforming to the leather trend at the moment, I can't stop buying suede and leather garments and shoes. Leather is also a timeless fabric which is why I love it so much.  I matched the skirt with my favourite Free People jumper, this was supposed to be a snuggly Sunday jumper but it has gradually turned into one of my wardrobe staple pieces. I have been pintresting some outfit ideas for Autumn Winter so keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks I have some exciting content lined up!
