I have this prominent vein on my forehead that tends to make itself known whenever I’ve had one too many Mojitos or am in a stressful situation or am suffering from the heat ! 😅 ☀️ I’ll leave you to guess which is the cause of my #stressederic forehead today 😂 Last holiday style pic from Spain 🇪🇸 wearing my linen brown/turquoise floral frock from Mango - I basically want to wear puff sleeves and a square neckline forever 💕I though puff sleeves would remain in the 80s but everything comes full circle 🙃 I’m heading back to England today 🇬🇧 but @theladysmaid will be taking a slightly longer #instaholiday ✨I’ll be back with more style inspiration for autumn / winter in September 🍂 👗 🍂 see you soon, and don’t go anywhere! 😘 Alicia x 💫 #hastaluego #instabreak #saturdaystyle #dailydress #dressoftheday #wiwt #wheninspain #ootd #mangodress #linendress #summerstyle #summerdress #holidaystyle #travelstyle #traveldress #instastyle #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
This swishy skirted floral maxi dress from Mango is a late addition to my Spanish senorita wardrobe 🙂 💕💐I love the cute shoulder bows and peachy blooms - perfect for skimming over my growing patatas bravas baby! 🥔👶😅 (I don’t think I could stay in Spain for too long - the tapas are too tempting ☺️)💫 #floraldress #maxidress #summerdress #summerstyle #holidaystyle #ootd #wiwt #instastyle #wheninspain #girona #dailydress #dressoftheday #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I’m having a bad hair / face day but at least I have an ace angel sleeve ☺️🖤👼🙃 geometric peasant blouse from @andotherstories with @topshop shorts 🌞 #ootd #wiwt #summerstyle #holidaystyle #peasantblouse #angelsleeves #statementsleeves #andotherstories #instastyle #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I’m wearing the simple strappy black tiered dress from @warehouseuk in sunny Spain today 🌞 I really like this dress as it’s easy to dress up or down, and is loose and comfortable to wear in the heat which is great as I feel like I’m about 80% patatas bravas at the moment 😅💕 I’m wearing it with my favourite sandals from @kurtgeiger, @zara straw bag, jewellery from @ashianalondon and a patterned bow scrunchie from @hm (close up pic in stories - heavily filtered - my skin doesn’t cope well in the Spanish heat 😅🙃)💫 #littleblackdress #summerdress #barcelona #parkguell #barcelonastyle #holidaystyle #dressoftheday #dailydress #classicstyle #wheninspain #warehousewornwell #instastyle #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I promised my M&S dancing emoji dress I would take it to Barcelona so here we are 😅💃🇪🇸 I surreptitiously planted a copy of my book in my hotel room @casabonay - maybe I will leave it here as a gift for the next guest ☺️💝💫 #barcelona #dancingemojidress #spanishstyle #wheninspain #barcelonastyle #barcelonacathedral #mymarks #holidaystyle #casabonay #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
One thing I can’t fit into my suitcase sadly is @pugmoiselle ! 😌🐶 the rail behind is my packing rail - it helps me decide what to take if I place all the potential pieces here and then thin them down as much as possible! 🧳 it’s sooo much easier packing summer clothes as they’re much lighter...The round the world trip I featured in my stories yesterday required winter and summer clothes which made it all the more challenging ! 💫 #packingtips #traveltips #holidaypacking #holidaystyle #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I think it’s safe to say I’ve packed more suitcases in my little life than the average person 🧳 🧳 🧳 so packing for my own short holiday is a sea breeze! ☺️ This is a sneak peak inside my summer suitcase for a trip to Spain next week 🇪🇸 I’m visiting a friend who lives near Girona so I’ll be away from my usual style posts for a while 👗 (I need an #instabreak !) I think my general look here is Spanish señorita meets gypsy rose lee 😂 I’ve linked some of the pieces on my blog #linkinbio but some are old / out of stock...My favourite dress is actually the simple black tiered strappy dress from Warehouse 🖤I don’t know why but I always feel more like a local if I wear black abroad in 30 degree heat 😅 and the @marksandspencer dancing emoji red dress is definitely coming along - it belongs in Barcelona with some summer sangria! 💃☺️🍹 p.s. let me know if you have any recommendations for a day in Barcelona 🇪🇸 I want to like Gaudi but it’s a bit Gothic heavy for my delicate disposition 😬😅 I will probably spend the day seeking shelter and hunting for tapas 😋 💫#holidaypacking #travelstyle #holidaystyle #summerstyle #traveltips #whattowear #whattopack #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I’m teaming up with the new sister company of @cotswoldhatclub @sistersister_collective to share this summer holiday promotion 🌞 🌞 🌞 @sistersister_collective are offering my followers 20% off these summery beaded clutches - cute and colourful and they’re big enough to fit a copy of my book #wardrobewisdom ! 📖 Which is handy because @sistersister_collective are giving away 4 copies of the book to the first 4 bags sold 📚So you can learn how to pack your summer suitcase like a pro! 💁🏻‍♀️☺️ Head over to @sistersister_collective and pick your favourite fruit! 🍉🍊🍋 #whynoraspberryemoji (Quote The Lady’s Maid to qualify for the 20% discount) Happy holidays! 🏖 #icarriedawatermelon #sistersistercollective #cotswoldhatclub #summerbag #summerclutch #summerstyle #holidaystyle #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
The Lady’s Maid is never off duty #styleneversleeps 😉 but I couldn’t resist featuring this clutch bag by @rebeccaminkoff 💕(much more fun than an out of office email #talktothebag ☺️). I’ve paired it here with the cotton embroidered kaftan from @andotherstories that I featured in my stories yesterday - your vote convinced me it had to be my Barcelona buddy 🤗👗🇪🇸 The rest of my holiday wardrobe is quite plain really...so I’m throwing a lot of summery jewellery at it and hoping for the best 😅 I recently discovered this jewellery brand called @ashianalondon and lets just say me and @pugmoiselle have blown our food budget on seashells, gold coins and turquoise for the foreseeable future! 😬 (outfit linked in bio ☝🏻☝🏻)💫 #styleneversleeps #holidaystyle #summerstyle #offduty #rebeccaminkoff #andotherstories #kurtgeiger #ashianalondon #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I often get messages from ladies looking for occasion dresses to suit curvy figures. If you haven’t heard of @bombshellhq then you need them in your life! ☺️ This pretty blue and pink floral maxi dress has a v wrap ruched neckline to flatter the bust and a vertical pleat to skim over the hips ✨ Did I mention it was machine washable?! 🙌🏻 (outfit linked in bio ☝🏻☝🏻) 💫 #curvystyle #bombshellhq #summerstyle #summerdress #dressoftheday #theladysmaid
Is it even summer if you're not wearing shells about yourself?! 🤔 🐚 🐚 🐚☺️ This cute shell embellished bamboo bag is currently in the sale at @mango - a great little bag for summer holidays 🌞And no summer wardrobe would be complete without a #littlewhitedress like this one from @warehouseuk 💕 It has a pretty broderie hem and detachable straps for when you want to soak your shoulders in sunshine 🌞 (outfit is linked in bio 👆🏻👆🏻💫) #summerstyle #holidaystyle #summerdress #shelljewellery #summerbag #shellbag #summersales #instastyle #dailydress #dressoftheday #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
I bought a denim blue bardot style dress from the Conscious range at @hm last year and it’s one of my favourites for summer 💙the lyocell fabric is really soft and thin so great for warmer weather (unlike stiffer denim) 🌞 So I like the look of this wrap style dress from their current Conscious range - with it’s pretty flounced hem and blouson sleeves - a great daily dress wardrobe staple 💙 I’ve paired it here with some neutral accessories - full details via link in bio 👆🏻👆🏻💫 #summerdress #summerstyle #hmxme #hmconscious #denimdress #wardrobestaples #wardrobebasics #wrapdress #dailydress #dressoftheday #holidaystyle #whattowear #classicstyle #theladysmaid #wardrobewisdom
