bonjour!

Well, hello world!

I suspect the first post on a blog is always the hardest so I'm going to keep this short and sweet.

I graduated from university in September, and I'm currently working as a sales adviser in the flagship store of a very well-known British brand in Oxford Circus. (I'm sure that those of you who have visited Oxford Street before can guess where!) I hope that this blog will provide a place for me to combine my passion for writing and fashion, with a particular focus on the high street, as well as generally documenting my post-university journey.

Today is a perfect Autumn day; beautifully sunny outside with a crisp breeze. I think I am going to go for a walk in the crunchy leaves this afternoon in my new Dr Martens!

I have never owned a pair of Dr Martens before, always believing them to be too bulky and masculine. However, I fell in love with the soft leather of this tan pair, and the shearling lining means they are lovely and warm, and on trend too! I plan to wear them with floral dresses, wooly tights and a chunky oversized cardigan. Photos as soon as I find the lead for my camera!
