Notting Hill

A few weeks ago, I visited one of my closest friends in London. I stayed in Notting Hill and fell in love with the adorable pastel houses that line the streets. The environment was the perfect backdrop for this Ted Baker floral dress, a piece from their Autumn 2016 collection.

Ted Baker Floral Dress

This Ted Baker Tapestry floral dress was the perfect piece for my trip to London. I was surprised by all the flowers and lush greenery right in the heart of the city. Window boxes and balconies were overflowing with colourful blooms! The pastel-hued houses also added to the magic of the neighbourhood, and matched my Ted Baker floral dress to a tee.

I love how this dress has a sleek boat neckline and 3/4 sleeves before fanning out into a whimsical full skirt. The cutouts at the sleeves add a bit of edge, while the matching leather belt ties it all together. The larger-than-life floral print is very playful.

I accessorized with a mini red Alexander Wang handbag that’s dainty, yet edgy. The bright crimson colour also matches the flowers in my dress. I drew a bit of inspiration from the iron gates, and wore a pair of cage heeled sandals.

I love to travel and draw inspiration from the architecture and vibe of the cities I visit. London has definitely left a mark on my style. I can’t wait to share more posts from my trip in posts to come!
