Orange Jungle

Wearing: Cup of Daisies Orange Jungle scarf, Topshop skater dress and necklace, Levis denim jacket, Givenchy sunnies

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 :) !

February Celebrations

February has quietly creeped up on us again, and that means so has the big V-Day! Before long high street will once more be lined with heart-shaped everything from balloons to baking trays and sweet nothings that are in between. Associating the celebration of passion with warm colours like red, orange, pink, peach etc. is only appropriate as people tend to affiliate these colours as symbols of affection. Think no further if you're wanting to get a head start with planning the most perfect Valentines gift; Cup of Daisies has a selection of silk scarves for your special someone. Lady Red Orange Jungle Purple Orchid  Apart from the great V-Day coming up, it is also Chinese New Year!!

Inspired by the mandarin fruit which is commonly given to each other as a peace offering when visiting friends and...
