Dinner in Downtown Miami


Oh hey!

Today's outfit post is one I wore to dinner the night before last, here in Downtown Miami. My husband Fabio and I were joined by Arielle and her boyfriend Tony, along with my little brother Leo for an evening at Gyu-Kaku.

Gyu-Kaku is based in downtown Miami and is a restaurant that I believe is from LA, and one that I can only highly recommend. It was my second time eating there and second ever time having Korean bbq and it just seems to get more delicious each time and more and more fun!

If you are wondering how on earth it's fun, the concept is that you sit at a table with a mini grill in the center and get to choose from a wide variety of meat, seafood and vegetables. They serve hot appetisers (or starters if you're from the UK) and their variety of dipping sauces are to die for. They also serve some amazing desserts, from deep-fried cheesecake to smores! We went with the smores because you get to roast the marshmallows at the table and it's again really fun and of course, delicious!

My outfit is a balance of smart and casual and is perfect for transitioning from a dinner to a club, which is what we were supposed to do that evening but plans change! I wore a brand new pair of Christian Louboutin So Kate high heels in a nude patent finish with a patent Chanel extra mini flap bag which is also a newbie from London, and I am absolutely in love with them both. My cargo trousers are by Polo Ralph Lauren and I actually found them in TK Maxx in London for £29.99! Such a bargain and they fit so well - I was really lucky in finding them. My top is from ASOS and is a perfect crop to mix and match with a wide variety of items. My watch is the Chanel J12, rings are from ASOS, Me&Ro and Rebecca Minkoff (which I again found in TK Maxx!) – and for those who may have noticed the thick white band from my underwear, I am wearing my Calvin Klein undies!

I hope you guys enjoyed this outfit post and I look forward to reading your comments! Much love and hope you are all well – until next time! xoxo

That High-shine Bomber Jacket

Oh Hey!

I took these outfit pictures before I set off to Greece and thought it was about time I got to posting the photos! I absolutely adore this bomber jacket and it is so light and easy to carry around on a chillier evening.

I fell in love with it when I first shared it in a haul video and paired with my new favourite brand of jeans: One Teaspoon. I feel like I can't go wrong with them. Such a cool, casual and comfortable style of jean and to me, they go hand in hand with those the cooler Summer days. They're some really versatile jeans to take from spring to summer and even into the autumn months, and all that comes to mind when I think of them is yaaaaaaaaas. Thanks Arielle for the recommendation! 

I paired the outfit with some of my favourite accessories by Hermès which hold a lot of sentimental value; both the Kelly bag and the 'H' belt were hand-me-downs from Mama Filthy - and some of my go-to rings of the moment. The claw ring was a recent gift from my mom, and is actually modelled from real pigeon feet! Or should I say claws? Now I figured that might creep some people out as not everybody loves pigeons, or feet for that matter, but I personally have no issue with pigeons and love the concept behind the jewellery. The artist Tessa Metcalfe is a taxidermist who likes to preserve the beauty of animals after they have passed on and models her designs closely on some of the finer details of her taxidermy. You guys should check our her stuff, it's incredible. On the subject of feet, I went with a comfy pair of Zara mules that are in my top ten go-to daytime summer heels.

The necklace I am wearing is an all time favourite when it comes to my gold statement pieces and was a bargain find at a home clear out sale that I was invited to a few years ago. It's a vintage piece by Yves Saint Laurent.

I hope to keep these posts up quite regularly, especially as I am off to Miami this weekend and I feel like my style really comes out to play when I travel out there... Hope you guys are all well! xoxo
