Occasionally; December 2024
An introduction to Occasionally, featuring some of my favourite festive looks for the end of the year.
Hello again!
Many of you may know me for my Instagram and TikTok content which, shortly after our wedding in 2022, have both become dedicated spaces for me to share elevated yet effortless outfits for all your upcoming occasions. It has been such a beautiful journey; one which started with inspiring many of you in your own wedding dress search after our wedding was so well received, and which quickly evolved into a go-to profile for anyone with upcoming birthdays, events or other formal occasions to dress for. I never felt particularly inspired to share casual everyday outfits, and this concept evolved so naturally. I often think dressing for special occasions comes with added pressure and can be overwhelming, and I love discovering unique brands and curating looks to inspire others at special times in their lives.
Whether you’ve been following since the beginning or are discovering Occasionally for the first time, I want to thank you all for being here, there and everywhere; it’s the one thing that motivates me the most, knowing that I am providing inspiration in some way and helping you in the way you dress and ultimately feel.
This time of year as Fall comes to an end and the days just keep getting shorter, colder and darker, keeping plans and parties in the diary seems to be one way of coping with things. Don’t get me wrong, living in the countryside with my husband and our dog means my usual weekend plans involve staying in, cooking and not moving too far from the fireplace, but luckily for me, my career takes me to some of the most beautiful places, and at this time of year, that includes countless Christmas parties, winter vacations, hosted brand dinners and catching up with friends in all of my favourite cities across the world. For this reason, along with the many projects I work on throughout the year, I have so many occasions to dress for, and, in the process, discover so many beautiful brands and pieces to share with you all.
In this edition of Occasionally, I’m sharing timeless occasion wear pieces in my wardrobe or on my wishlist. Happy partying!
