Why Choose Non Material Gifts?

In the 21st century, physical gifts are slowly getting boring. When I say that, it's not to say we've given up on it entirely. But for the fairly new wave of interest in minimalism, a 'less is more' lifestyle approach is beneficial to our lives physically and emotionally. So if we are trying to choose [...]

September 18, 2020September 24, 2020by apetitegirlsguideto2964Leave a Comment on How to Care For Genuine Leather

I’m still kind of excited the snow is here in the UK ☺️ that’s probably why I love that this tinsel looks like snow!
You can tell by the tinsel that I took this before Xmas 😅I thought this would be another nice winter inspired outfit. Featuring my favourite pre-loved pieces, my Levi’s and cashmere sweater. Pastels and snowy weather are the perfect match 💕
I'm still on my styling journey, but one thing's certain - it's pretty fluid. That's the best thing about personal style, it doesn't conform!
Happy New Year! I hope everyone has stayed well this month.
Something about the style feels elegant and a little Christmassy in the burgundy color...
2 shades of pink make a really nice contrast 🎨
