Winter Whites

Winter Whites 

Katherine Penney Chic blog style life photography white winter warm home cue cosy pretty pastel milkshake

Today was my day off yet it has gone so quickly I don't really feel like I have made the most of it. I wondered around the shops for a bit looking for a pair of shoes that I never found. I did however try on a beautiful dress in Mango. It was bottle green and in a shift dress style and would have looked perfect with some thick Winter tights for the day or black tight and heels for something dressier. But I couldn't bring myself to buy it. But if I keep thinking about it as much as I have since I tried it on then maybe I will have to go back and get it.

Today I also treated myself to a Malteasers milkshake. I made it myself with my Nutribullet, not sure milkshakes are really what is was meant for! But it tasted so good and I still have a huge bag of Malteasers left! 

The house has started to get a little chilly so I have been living in my slippers from Primark and snuggling up in lots of big jumpers and fluffy blankets. it's so lovely in the evening with my candle and fairy lights on. Winter is definitely on its way!

Another thing that I have really been loving at the moment is my Calvin Klein sports bra. It is just the comfiest thing ever and it still looks super stylish. I have been wearing this under big jumpers and slouchy tops a lot. Although I am pretty small on top anyway so I hope i don't look too much like a teenage boy! But this also looks really cool under a sheer shirt and a leather jacket.

I am so desperate to get the matching pants too. Not really sure why! They are nearly £20 for a pair of grey cotton pants. Although then I can be matching and in my mind that would make it worth it! xx

Katherine Penney Chic Blogger Life Lifestyle Weekend Photography Random Brownies Relaxing Food Baking

So I think first of all I need to talk about these incredible brownies! My best friend, who I haven't seen in over three months came over yesterday and we ended up baking these incredible brownies, also known as "Slutty Brownies". I don't know!

They have a cookie base, Oreos in the centre and a brownie top. And my gosh they are delicious! So if you like baking and you haven't tried these before they are actually really easy to make and I really recommend them.

Red Alert! Yesterday morning drinking a smoothie and reading Vogue. I was actually reading that red is the colour of the moment, so why not wear it and drink it!

Lazy Sunday's call for slouchy jumpers. Although I wear slouchy jumpers and jeans basically everyday of the week! I love this striped one from Topshop that I found in the sale a couple of months back. It is so soft and comfy but still looks cute with some delicate gold jewellery.

So Summer is pretty much coming to an end now, but we still have Autumn to look forward to. Today I was feeling inspired on Pinterest and made a whole new collection of pretty Autumn pictures. It makes the end of Summer not quite so hard.

And finally I ordered this really cute little lantern for my university bedroom a few days ago and it arrived yesterday. It is even smaller that I expected, but it is so pretty and I can't wait to put a little tea light in it. 

Hope everyone has had a lovely weekend. I have spent some time today bagging up all of my really summery clothes to put them in the loft. And I have some big winter jumpers to bring down now. I always like to sort out my wardrobe at the end of every season to clear out things that I haven't worn in ages and to make more room. I think I am going to try and be good and go on a run or something before dinner. especially after eating those brownies! xx

Katherine Penney Chic Blogger Summer sunshine outdoors pretty garden girlie cute pretty boho love

This is the first time in a long time that the weather has been amazing and I have actually had the day off work to enjoy it! And I think this is basically the last day of summer now so this morning I got straight into my bikini to try and make the most of it. I moved some blankets and cushions, and then all the other essentials, iphone, laptop, Vogue, Essie nail polishes outside into the garden to create the perfect little relaxation zone. I have been trying to top up my tan from Kefalonia but I have had to move back inside for a bit to write this blogpost as it is basically impossible to see my screen in the sunshine, and sunglasses do not help!

For lunch I made myself a yummy little salad. it sounds very healthy but the truth is that I woke up so late and had a bacon and egg sandwich for breakfast so I wasn't actually that hungry. I also have some of my all time favourite drink, Pink Lemonade. And I swear it isn't just because of the colour!

This afternoon I used my new Nutribullet again which I really can't get enough of! I now have lots of more adventurous things to put into my smoothies to make them even healthier like spinach, kale, almonds and all that good stuff, as well as lots of yummy fruit.

Today I just chose one of the simple smoothie recipes from the Nutribullet booklet, Spinach, banana, strawberries, blueberries and then some water.

It tastes really nice and refreshing, especially on a hot day like today, and I can't really even taste the spinach!

Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend. Speak soon xx

Katherine Penney Chic Spain Malaga Pretty Holiday Summer White Beautiful Travel

Sorry for the lack of posts in the last week or so, but if you didn't guess from the title of this post I have just got back from Spain! I did hope to do a bit of blogging while I was out there but the mix of a great holiday and very hot weather meant that anything remotely productive went completely out of the window! However I did manage to take a few pictures so I thought I would share them with you. 

Katherine Penney Chic Spain Malaga Pretty Holiday Summer White Beautiful Travel

Seems like a bit of a random picture but I love this photo that I took while wondering the streets of a beautiful little town before we went out to dinner. I love all the white and the fresh green plants and that motobike is just beautiful!

Katherine Penney Chic Spain Malaga Pretty Holiday Summer White Beautiful Travel

Just realised that I haven't even told you anything about my holiday to Spain. I went with my boyfriend Jack and a group of friends from Sixth Form as one of them has a lovely house in Malaga. Which also meant that the holiday was really inexpensive! He has a beautiful house with amazing views, lots of sunbeds and a shared pool so we had everything we really needed! 

We didn't actually leave the house very often apart from in the evenings if we were going out for dinner. But it was so lovely and relaxing just lying in the sun, listening to music, chatting to close friends and jumping in the pool when the heat got too much. So I think nearly all of these photos are taken on the last evening in Spain when we went out for a really lovely dinner.

How amazing is this?! I love all these colours and beautiful plants. It's just so summery and fun!

Strolling down the streets of Spain. It was so beautiful there. White walls and lots of flowers, my idea of perfect!

This wall is so gorgeous, I love the little pots with all the different plants and flowers.
