September Favourites

Bonjour my lovelies! I know, I know – this post is called September favourites and it’s already 5th October. I was a bit delayed doing this post because I have just been in Paris for 5 days for Fashion Week so things have been a bit hectic.
Talking of Paris Fashion Week, “Fashion Month” as I like to call it, is first up on my September favourites. New York, London, Milan and Paris – it has been an absolute treat to see some amazing street style images, read bloggers’ reviews and find inspiration for the coming seasons. And that’s why Fashion Month is one of my favourite times of year. I’ve got loads of posts coming during the next two weeks from PFW – including my three outfits, the best of street style and my favourite catwalk collections – so stay tuned!

So I’m going to delve a bit deeper than usual to explain this September favourite. Over the past few months I have been suffering from lots of anxiety and stress, which is one of the reasons that I left my vintage shop job in Paris. During this time, my mum sent me an adult colouring book, which is supposed to relief stress and honestly it is a joy to do. I have always imagined that painting or drawing would be really relaxing but I can’t draw for shit, so colouring in already drawn cats (yes it’s an exclusively cat colouring book – the obsession just grows and grows), is perfect. Have any of you tried this and what did you think?

&Other Stories jewellery gold hoop earrings and gold ring
Gold hoops – &OTHER STORIES, Ring – &OTHER STORIES

I am currently obsessed with &OTHER STORIES jewellery! It is beautiful and the prices are decent so when I realised that there was one just a few blocks from my Barcelona apartment, I treated myself to these lovely gold hoops and spike ring. Just the start of my collection from &OTHER STORIES but I am sure it will grow and grow!

And lastly, but probably most importantly, I could not have September favourites without my new beginning in Barcelona. I am really enjoying the chilled way of life here, working on my blog and spending time with Lewis. Soon I will have to get a job but for now I am just treasuring these few weeks and I cannot wait to share it all with you!
