60 years of elegance

Queen Elizabeth II is under almost every British eye this weekend and I thought i would look at her 60 year reign of style! She may not be immediately seen as a fashion guru but she has a very elegant unique personal style. Elegance i believe is something a person is born with, from her many extravagant hats to her glistening jewels the queen is the definition of elegance. This outfit from her early days as queen is definitely my favourite of hers, it shows she's not afraid to show herself of with style, grace and glamour. God save the queen!

Madeira

Just got back from a beautiful holiday to the Portuguese island of Madeira. The hotel (quinta splendida) we stayed at had such an explosion of tropical colours and textures! Known for its botanical gardens it could inspire any creative mind!
