DIAMOND DIARY: Shoes, Surprises & Styling Fixes

Dear Diamond Diary.....

This week’s been a good mix of discovery, inspiration, and a few accidental style wins.

Lamoda Indecision

I’ve been eyeing up multiple pairs of Lamoda shoes and frankly, I can’t pick a favourite. They’re all a bit ridiculous — in the best way — and I’ll probably end up with more than one.

Outfit Highlights

Across my socials there have been some great vibes about my recent styling videos. A few hawk eyed followers noticed the grouse foot brooch I wore with a beret — it’s an antique piece I’d forgotten I even had, and it felt satisfying to bring it back into circulation!

The little black dress moment was also a hit. I’d wanted to wear my barbed wire choker, but the material tarnishes too easily. I ended up using it as a garter instead — a last-minute fix that turned into a proper styling feature.

An Early Birthday Surprise

My birthday’s coming up, and my good friend surprised me with tickets to Jeff Mills x London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican. It was exactly my taste — a collision of classical and electronic music. Complex, layered, and totally immersive.

Still Working, Still Sourcing

Of course, I had to swing by Paper Dress Vintage this weekend for a flash sale. (Styling research, naturally.) I found a few standout pieces — currently working on a video with the details!

Boho Punk Inspo

Discovered this brand Solai via my insta feed- think boho x punk with earthy colours, tartan and heaps of hardware. Must try.

Thanks again for all the love on the recent looks. I’m always glad when the process — the problem-solving, the accidents, the antique finds — resonates.
