For this week’s blog post, I wanted to talk about why everyone should own a suit. Whether you prefer an oversized fit or a more tailored look, bright and bold or neutral, there’s bound to be a perfect suit for everyone. Do you own one yourself? Chances are you’ve probably owned one at one stage in your life or another. Keep reading for the 5 reasons why I think everyone should have one in their wardrobe.
Hope you’re all having the best weekend and Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mums out there, especially mine, who I’m quite partial too and believe is the best mum anyone’s ever had. While I spent time with my mum last weekend, I was back in London this weekend. Yesterday, my friend, Milllie and I had an outfit shoot day and ended with some delish pasta from Lina Stores, which I’ve been wanting to try to ages. (We both got the carbonara and would def recommend.) Today I had brunch, in true George form, with none other than my gorgeous friend, Zoe and her puppy Odie, who I’ve been wanting to meet for ages! He was such a little dream. Much to Odie’s jealousy, Zoe and I had the banana pancakes from Granger & Co. They were to die for.
Anyway, now that the colour UK weather seems to have finally broken and we’re heading into April soon, I thought it was about time I post my annual colour forecast for Spring/Summer 2022. (Check out last year’s colour forecast here.) As usual, I’m covering this year’s most popular shades, according to Pantone, and how you can wear them.
I hope you’re all well and having a relaxing end to your weekend. This weekend I went for a lovely swimming sesh, unpacked my suitcases, and went for a delish Sunday roast. I’ve needed this restful weekend after all of the craziness of London, Milan, and Paris fashion weeks.
Reflecting on the past couple weeks, I wanted to look back on Milan Fashion week first. Apart from Men’s Milan Fashion Week, this was my first real MFW. Below are some of my highlights and favourite parts of the week.
Hope you’ve had a lovely weekend. Leave a comment below with what you’ve been getting up to. I had some unfortunate and unlucky news this week. Since Monday, I’ve been in isolation with Covid. Luckily for me, it was very mild and I just thought I had a cold. (Leave all your Covid questions below.) So for today’s blog post, I thought I’d discuss some of the reflections I had while spending the last five days alone with my own thoughts.
I hope you’re all having a good Sunday filled with cosy, vibes. London as gotten so cold this week, but I kind of love it when it’s chilly and sunny. This weekend, I’ve finally started feeling festive. Friday we kicked off a bit of Christmas shopping. I always enjoy thinking about what might make other people happy on Christmas. Yesterday, my friend Megan and I had a lovely dinner and walked around Covent Garden looking at all the wonderful lights. I can’t wait to start doing more holiday festivities as the weeks go on.
For this week’s blog post, very appropriately with temperature drop, I wanted to share tmy guide to the knitwear you need to be rocking. Keep reading to get my tips for picking out the perfect sweaters. It’s all about keep cosy!
I hope you’re well and all having a lovely weekend. I’ve had a much needed chilled one, catching up with friends and fam, eating as always, and doing a bit of baking. Finally tried Arôme bakery yesterday near Covent Garden, which I can definitely recommend. The pastries and honey toast were delish! I also picked up a coconut hot choc and walked around a very festive looking London. Has the Christmas decorating begun where you are yet? Now all we need is a bit of snow!
Speaking of snow, with this all white leather look from Ted Baker (gifted) I wanted to share why I think wearing white is definitely recommended this season. Have you ever felt a bit intimidated about style this crisp shade in the cooler months? Below are my tips for looking perfect and wintery in white.
I hope you’re all having a lovely end to the weekend. I’ve had quite an exciting one, as my parents have officially moved back to the UK and made a quick stop in London to visit me. Even though they were only here briefly, we still managed to have a good time. I took them to one of my favourite Indian restaurants in Covent Garden, for a walk around my local park, and just had some general catch up time. Hopefully, when they’re a bit more settled I can go and visit them up in Derbyshire soon. But anyway let’s do a bit of time travelling back a couple weeks for this week’s blog post.
This week, I wanted to give you guys a recap of my first Paris Fashion Week experience. As you know, I’m a Talent Manager now, so I was lucky enough to get to go to Paris Fashion Week with my job. I can’t quite believe it. (I was accompanying my Talent, Charelle Schriek, who you need to follow if you’re not already.) One of the reasons I moved to London for my career, was to become more involved in fashion weeks and now I’ve gotten to experience both London and Paris. Feeling very grateful for everything and everyone that has lead me here. Below are some of the highlights of my ten days in Paris.
Hope you’re all having a lovely end to your weekends. I’ve had another fun London weekend. Friday night was Girl’s Night Out which I haven’t had since before the pandemic so that was quite fun, and then yesterday was spent enjoying the last of the summer sun having a picnic in the park and eating and drinking in Soho. I’ve also spent the weekend preparing for Paris Fashion Week, which starts next weekend.
After a recent question from one of my follower and these new beautiful Astrid and Miyu pieces, I thought I’d share my thoughts on building the perfect jewellery collection. Below are my tips for finding the best jewellery pieces that you’re bound to wear for years and year. Leave a comment below with the best jewellery pieces you’re ever had in your collection.
Glad to have you back here on the Style Transplant. It’s been a bit of a busy one, so I’ve neglected the blog unfortunately, but on the flip side I have been traveling and thinking of new blog post material, so I have plenty to tell you about. How have you been? What have you been up to this weekend? I’ve had a bit of a chilled one after a busy weekend of travel the weekend before to St. Tropez (mini travel guide coming soon), but I’ve still managed to eat some delicious cheese fondue with my friend Megan yesterday and shoot some blog content and catch up with my friend Millie today. Anyway, on to this week’s blog post all about how you should be styling your LBD (little black dress) in 2021. Keep reading to get my styling tips to take your simple go-to dress from boring to stylish.
I hope you guys are having the best weekend so far. Mine has consisted of relaxing, eating, and trying to keep out of the rain. Yesterday, our yoga in the park got cancelled due to rain but we still managed to get coffee and pastries in the park. I also got a lovely brunch of harissa sweet potato cakes with egg with my friend Jade. This afternoon, I got stuck in the flooding outside my tube station and had to roll up my trousers and wade through in my Dr. Martens…not sure what is happening with the weather right now. I’m home now and drying out luckily haha. What have you guys been up to? Have you experienced any weird flooding?
For this week’s blog post, I wanted to talk about why you should take a trip into your mum’s closet, especially if she’s got some gems from the 80s or 90s. Playing dressing in your mum’s closet isn’t just for childhood. Even VOGUE has done an article on clothes editors have stolen from their mother’s.
Hope you’ve all had a fab weekend. Leave a comment down below with what you’ve been up to. Yes say I took myself on a solo day trip to Brighton and I actually found it so relaxing and nice to enjoy my own company on the beach. I got a lovely lunch at Oeuf and met up with the gorgeous Daena for a quick chat. Today I’ve caught up with my other friend, Jade over a delish brunch. The weather in the UK has finally turned around so I’ve been trying to enjoy it as much as possible.
For this week’s blog post I wanted to share how I’ve been styling my shorts recently and making them a bit more sophisticated. I was gifted this lovely blouse from Lagonomy and thought it would be the perfect compliment to my shorts.
Hope you’re all having a much more exciting weekend than me. I’m unfortunately stuck in quarantine after returning to the UK. Also I apologize for the lack of blogposts over the past couple weekends, but I decided to take a little break while I was back in the USA visiting friends and family. I did have a wonderful time back home, celebrating my longtime friend, Haven’s wedding, taking photos and making reels with my bestie, Joud, and relaxing with my family poolside. What have you been up to over the past couple weeks? Leave me your updates below.
For this week’s comeback blog post I wanted to talk about finding the perfect swimwear for your body type. I don’t know how I’ve never covered this before, but since we’re now allowed to travel a bit more and summer is upon us, I thought it was only appropriate to cover the topic. Of course any body can wear any suit, but below you’ll find my favourite swimwear styles along with what body part they’ll help you accentuate and flatter the most.
Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend. Leave a comment with the best part of your weekend. I’ve spent it catching up with friends, getting ready to fly to the USA next week, and shooting some new content with some amazing people and pups (aka Freddie!). Keep an eye out for exciting content coming soon.
Anyway, for this week’s post, I wanted to touch on some of this season’s must-have accessories that you should all add to your wardrobe, if you don’t have them already. Accessories can really make or break a look, but this summer there are some key items you should try out. Keep reading to find out what those are.
Hope you’re all having a lovely long weekend if you’re here in the UK. We have a bank holiday on Monday so it’s an extra long weekend. I’ve finally got to go up to Derbyshire after a year and a half and visit my family. So lovely eating home cooked meals, catching up on the last year and spending time with some of my favourite people. Can’t wait until my mum and dad are back here in the same area as well.
For this week’s blog post, I wanted to style one of my favourite items, the blazer, five different ways. This one in particular is from NA-KD and I’m obsessed! I thought this might help you think of different ways to style your own blazers too. They don’t always have to make an appearance for the office. If you’re looking for a a new one, definitely check out NA-KD.com!
Anyway, for today’s blog post, I wanted to talk about a new trend sweeping the fashion and social media worlds that you might have heard of, Cottagecore. Cottagecore, which originally cropped up in 2018 on Tumblr is now making a comeback thanks to TikTok. It is the idealization of all things rural, countryside related, and peacefulness. This applies to fashion as well! One might use words like pastoral, cozy, tranquil, simple, wholesome, vintage, natural, and nostalgia when describing Cottagecore. Having survived the last year and a half of the pandemic, I think we’ve all realized how important nature and mindfulness really is, which is why Cottagecore ideals seam to be soaring. Below are three categories where you can incorporate some Cottagecore values into your own life.
Hope you’re all having a lovely Sunday. Leave a comment below what you’ve been up to. Friday night was my belated birthday dinner with the girls from work. We had an amazing tapas meal, but were unfortunately freezing outside. Luckily indoor dining starts tomorrow here in the UK. Saturday I got brunch with a friend in Kensington and today I went to Colombia Road Flower Market to check out this season’s best blooms with my friend, Kardelen. Feeling lucky to have life going back to a bit of normality here in the UK.
Today, I wanted to talk about one of this season’s unexpected rising trend stars, the sweater vest. When hearing the words “sweater vest” your brain might immediately jump to the likes of Chandler Bing from Friends or some other cliché nerdy character from the 90s, but this season, they have become a must-have piece. Style icons like Harry Styles and Bella Hadid have even been rocking them and contributing to their popularity, so for this week’s blog post I thought I’d talk about how to style them.
Hope your week has been productive and happy. Comment one good thing that happened to you this week. For me, this week was very busy as we finally went into the office at work. It was so nice to be around people again and Friday night I went out for dinner with some of the girls from work. This weekend I’ve been very productive in creating content and got to go out for a lovely brunch in Kensington with my friend Katrina. Anyway, on to even more exciting news!
I’m proud to share with you that today I will finally be offering my own personal styling services. As of right now, there are four packages available to help you on your own style journey. Whether you need help putting together pieces from your own wardrobe, buying new pieces, or help with what colours and styles suit you best, I am here to help (remotely as well so you don’t have to live in London)! Keep reading to find out more about each service I’ll be offering and maybe finding one right for you.
Hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend. I’ve had a very busy weekend celebrating my 26th birthday with friends and family, after a very stressful week. Unfortunately, last week both my card was cancelled due to fraudulently activity and my phone was stolen, so I needed this weekend for sure! We spent the weekend eating delish food around London and doing a bit of shopping of course.
For this week’s blog post I wanted to talk about the importance of tailoring and why you need to find a tailor you can depend on. I’ve recently switched tailors and I’m so pleased with the service and price, I had to share! If you live in the Hackney/Victoria Park area in London, you definitely need to try JCD Dry Cleaners in Victoria Park Village.
We’re mixing it up and posting on a Wednesday this week because I posted a fun Carrie Bradshaw outfits inspired reel/TikTok of Sunday instead (trying to go viral as the kids say so go give it a watch if you haven’t already). Let me know what day you would be most likely to read my blog posts below. But anyway, what have you been up to this past weekend? I made some fun reels, went for an exciting countryside shoot to the cute little town of Arundel with my friend Lucy (photos coming soon of course), and stumbled upon some gorgeous blooms in Greenwich Park with my friend Martina. Overall it was very exciting and picturesque weekend. Feeling grateful to be living in such a gorgeous and exciting city, especially now that things are opening back up.
For this week’s post I wanted to talk about my holy grail piece of the minute, the wide leg jean and why you need a pair in your wardrobe too. I honestly can’t stop wearing them and I think I have them in just about every classic colour, from dark denim to white. Below are my reasons you need to add a pair to your wardrobe if you haven’t already.
Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend. As per the usual, I want to hear all about what you’ve been up to this weekend so comment down below. I’ve had a very productive weekend of shooting content with my friend, Millie, going on walks in the park, and eating yummy food in chinatown with my friend, Kardelen. I’ve also managed to have a much-needed tidy as well and planned some exciting future projects for the blog and socials, so I’d say it’s been a successful weekend.
For this week’s blog post, since everyone is finally transitioning back into office life, I thought I’d share some tips for making a style comeback after spending nearly a year getting a bit too comfy at home.
Hope you’re having a lovely Monday. I decided to post today since everyone was busy doing Easter activities. Comment down below what Easter things you got up to whether that was eating an entire chocolate egg to yourself or celebrating surrounded by friends and family. (If you’re in the UK, hope you enjoyed having a long weekend too!)
For this week’s post, I wanted to talk about this cute little blazer set that I made (with a bit of vital help from my amazing mum). From an oversized and underwhelming dad blazer to a trendy matching suit set.
Hope you’re all having a lovely Sunday. What have you been up to this weekend? I’ve spent the weekend going on walks with friends, eating some delish takeaway food, and making the most of sunny London. We picked up brunch at a food stall, called What Did Katie Do Next, nearby yesterday and walked along the canal. I’ve also gotten to catch up with some old friends and some new, while dog spotting in various London parks. Im feeling hopeful and looking forward to the easing of restrictions in the coming months, especially going out for dinner and being able to visit a few family members. What are you looking forward to most post-pandemic?
Although it’s still only February, signs of spring are popping up all over London and that means new fashion trends too. I always like to share some spring/summer trends this time of year and even though we’re mostly stuck indoors, that doesn’t mean we can’t look amazing while doing it, right? Below are the top trends heading our way from digital catwalks everywhere.
Happy Sunday friends,
Hope you’re all well and coping with lockdown if you’re in one. Comment down below what you’ve been doing this week to keep busy. We’ve been on a chilly hike, sipping cocktails, and creating more content for Instagram.
For this week’s post I wanted to recreate a look from Breakfast at Tiffany’s but in a fresh 2021 way. This outfit is what I imagine Audrey Hepburn’s iconic Breakfast at Tiffany’s outfit would look like today.
Hope you’re having a nice Sunday. If you’re in London, I hope you’re finally enjoying some snow! (I’m feel very left out as you all know how much I love snow.) This week has been spent shooting new content and getting more creative with reels. I'm starting to enjoy video content more, so I hope you guys are enjoying it too. Check out my Instagram to see what I’ve been up too.
For this blog post, I wanted to talk about some trends to look out for in spring 2021, and especially focus on ones you probably already have in your closet. These trends will refresh your style without having to spend too much.
Hope you’re all having a lovely Sunday on the run up to Christmas. Comment down below all the festive things you’re getting up to if you celebrate. I’m officially back home in small-town USA for a couple weeks now. I’m excited to be spending a bit of time with my family doing all the festive activities we can.
Hope you’re all doing well. Comment down below what you’ve been up to this weekend. I’ve been finishing up my Christmas shopping, checking out the London Christmas lights with friends, wrapping prezzies, and picking up some treats in Spitalfields market. I’ll be heading back to the USA for Christmas next weekend, so this is my last weekend to run about to get things done. Anyway, on to this week’s blog post.
For this week’s blog post, I wanted to write about the DOs and DON’Ts of styling hats. I alway find wearing hats a bit intimidating, and finding a hat I actually think suits me has always been a challenge. Is anyone else in the same boat? Anyway, I finally found a hat I love when I was at Notting Hill Market the other weekend and it seemed like the perfect excuse to share my tips for styling hats with you guys.
Hope you’re having a lovely weekend. Comment down below what you’ve been up to. Friday night we ordered a takeaway pizza and watched a movie, Saturday brought pretty bad weather, but I still got out for a quick run. Today I went for another run and then we walked around the Victoria Park Sunday Market in the sun. I got a Bahni Mi sandwich for lunch and it was insane. Tonight we’re attempting to make some homemade pasta! I’m excited to see how it goes! (Head over to my instagram for updates!)
This week, I wanted to talk about how what you wear really can affect your mood. Often times we fall victim to dressing how we feel, instead of dressing to improve that feeling. For example, if you’re feeling down, you might throw on a pair of comfy joggers and a hoodie. I challenge you to read this and then dress for how you want to feel instead of how you are feeling. We should all be using what we wear as a secret weapon to improve ourselves, our self-confidence, and our moods.
Hope you’re doing well on this fine fall Sunday. Hope all my lovely friends and fam here in the UK are doing ok after the announcement of a second lockdown last night. The good news is we made it through the first, so we will definitely be able to make it through this one! Hopefully this mini lockdown will help make it safer for us all around Christmas time.
For this week’s blog post, I wanted to explore how to find your own personal style. I get asked all the time “But Georgie, how do I find my own personal style?” It’s a common feeling to be lost or confused when it comes to defining your personal style, especially if you tend to flit from trend to trend. Others of you may ask “well, why is it important for me to define my style anyway?” Personally, I think knowing your own style is important for making future purchases that you will actually wear and will last in your wardrobe rather than being a wear-once kind of deal. Below, I’ve come up with the best ways to find your personal style.
Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend guys. I’ve spent the week enjoying the beginning of fall and going out to eat at some lovely London hot spots. I’ve been enjoying running in the cooler weather and among the changing leaves. Anyone else secretly excited for this change of season (apart from the unfortunate amount of rain we have had this week)?
For this week’s blog post, I wanted to share some of the Autumn/Winter 2020 knitwear that I’ve been lusting after. Despite the fact that I sometimes find knitwear to be a bit bland and samey, there seems to be an influx of exciting sweaters and jumpers out there this fall. Below are the top trends and my cosy picks that I’m loving on the high street and online at the minute.
I hope you’re all having a nice weekend. Leave a comment down below telling me one thing that made yours good. I’ve been catching up with friends, checking out the shiny new Big Ben, doing a bit of cheeky shopping, and having lots of lovely food and drink as per the usual. We were also lucky enough to have some sunshine here in London again.
For this week’s blog post, I wanted to talk about some simple tips for looking more polished. I know I have discussed topics like this before, but you don’t need to add anything to your wardrobe with these simple hacks. They can be applied to any outfit you already own to elevate it and look more chic.
