'Between Bowties & Lady Butterflies'

Outfit details of the week:

H&M Trend floral crop top purchased from my latest London trip two weeks ago.

Absolutely adore the print on this particular top, the combination of colours are striking yet brings together a blend of sophistication. What makes it super on trend is that it's made out of the scuba material which is super big this season, and if you haven't' noticed, the cropped length has absolutely taken over the runways! What's not to like.

Paired it with my lovely Topshop white thick cotton flared skirt for a clean crisp look. Love the contrast between the prints and clean crisp skirt.

White is the season's new black.

These red hot studded kitten heels from Zara have been a good bargain from last season's sale and I've never regretted getting them.

To top it off, I've styled it with one of our very own CUP OF DAISIES scarves, and I knew instantly it had to be the Lady Red scarf.

Fun fact: This particular print was inspired by the Tenovus Charity. It reflects the projects they develop within Welsh communities- bringing care, treatment and support to people in need. For this, the scarf is designed with characters of heroic beautiful women, among other bow ties and lady butterflies, as well as honey pots.

Love how this look is undeniably Christmassy with the shades of red for the festive season. And to round it up, the Kenzo 'Flower in the Air' perfume with the iconic poppy is my go-to smell to complement it all.

3 of the Hottest Accessory Trends for SS21

Just because lockdown restrictions are starting to ease doesn’t mean that you have to go out and buy a brand new outfit. Sure, you want to feel and look good at social events after a year of emotional turmoil. (We get it.) That said, sometimes all it takes is the right accessory to tap into current trends and take your style to the next level. Speaking of, here are 3 of the best accessory trends for Spring/Summer 2021 that would make the perfect addition to your existing wardrobe. Utilitarian Bags Firstly, it’s almost like the fashion industry has accounted for the fact that most of us haven’t needed a handbag in months. By introducing pretty-yet-practical options across the SS21 catwalks , they’re easing us back into the practice of carrying a bag. From Kenzo’s slouchy waist belt, to phone lanyards at Versace, to Dior’s straw grab-and-go versions, the focus is on the smaller, the better. However, simplified, medium-size bags also did the rounds at Hermès and Prada for those who ...

Guest Blogger- Photographer Michaela Howe

I'm a third year Photography in the Arts student, studying at Swansea Metropolitan University of Wales Trinity Saint David. I am working as a Photography intern for Cup of Daisies. My personal work is mainly portraiture, through Cup of Daisies I have been able to continue that interest, develop my portfolio and continue meeting new people. Working as an intern involves photographing people wearing Cup of Daisies products in the street and in a studio. In order to get models I have to approach strangers, and engage with them, discussing the company and the charities it is working for. I aim to approach 'stylish' looking people, to create a stylish portrait. Although fashion is a new area to me, I felt it came quite natural, it was easy to spot someone who fashionably stood out. In my personal work I usually enjoy working in the studio more, however working for Cup of Daisies I enjoy the street photography more. This is because I enjoy meeting new people, and dire...

Orange Jungle

Wearing: Cup of Daisies Orange Jungle scarf, Topshop skater dress and necklace, Levis denim jacket, Givenchy sunnies Apologies for the slight hiatus, we're back with a post filled with orange, coral and bright palettes! Inspired by the brief intervals of slightly sunnier weather in the UK this Spring, why not look on the bright side of things. Featuring as a head accessory in this post is the 'Orange Jungle' scarf . This scarf was specially designed for the Noah's Ark Appeal , a charity in support for Children's Hospital in Wales. I've paired the headscarf with a coral skater dress, colourful statement necklace and a dark-wash denim jacket. Just one of those days where dressing up in brights makes everything more cheerful :) !
