This *one thing* is non-negotiable when I’m buying new shoes

This *one thing* is non-negotiable when I’m buying new shoes

I have one simple style rule when it comes to buying shoes. They’re my kryptonite, so perhaps it’s little surprise that I’ve amassed quite the collection. And this one thing is absolutely non-negotiable when I’m buying new shoes. They must be comfortable.  Of course, it’s a spectrum. Some shoes will need to be broken in a little, especially if you have wide feet. Almost like a rite of passage. But if the leather is too thick and stiff, it’s generally a pass from me. If there’s a strap that is digging in from the get go, that doesn’t look like…

adidas Y-3 just dropped their latest collection and it is *good*

adidas Y-3 just dropped their latest collection and it is *good*

When I first started to explore my personal style two decades ago, streetwear was having a huge moment (which side note, it still is). Creating visual interest and intrigue through the use of layering, unexpected silhouettes, and texture underpinned many of the outfits I was trying to replicate, but on a shoestring budget. So it won’t come as a surprise that I’ve followed the collaboration between Japanese designer Yohji Yamamoto, and iconic sportswear brand adidas – Y-3 – for many years with great interest. And before we dive in, quick PSA, the new adidas Y-3 collection  just dropped so take this as your cue to…

It can be that awkward, in-between period, so today, in partnership with YOOX we’re running through some key transitional season staples that’ll make the journey to building a great outfit (no matter the weather) a cinch. For those not yet familiar with YOOX, it’s a dream destination when it comes to shopping for high quality, luxurious wardrobe staples (and statement pieces). Their designer directory is incredibly extensive, and it’s my go-to when seeking out off-season or hard-to-find pieces…

Winter Most Worn Items 2023

Winter Most Worn Items 2023

A change in season can mean one thing, and one thing only. Time for some seasonal wardrobe analysis. I’ve been tracking what I wear for close to a decade now. Longer if you consider my obsessive wardrobe tracking when I first began my personal style journey. And the insights that I’ve gained from this project have been fascinating. It’s allowed me to monitor what types of items I’m gravitating towards most. Highlighted my love of neutral, typically classic cut styles. But more recently, been a document of how my preferences have shifted through becoming a mum, and the pandemic.  It’s…

My Emma Lewisham Skincare Routine

My Emma Lewisham Skincare Routine

My skincare routine is under constant refinement. I’ll usually introduce something new on a fortnightly basis, but the products I keep coming back to always remain the same. And it’s the test of time that really highlights which are the heroes in your routine. And out of everything I’ve been trying, I’ve found myself having something of a semi-exclusive Emma Lewisham skincare routine. Not on purpose, but because my complexion seems to really be loving each and every product. It’s worth noting that this is a luxury skincare brand. Which is reflected in the price point, but also the overall…
