Ever had that little voice in your head whisper, "Go on, give it a go"? That’s how this collection kicked off for me. I was wandering along this cracking hiking trail—proper middle of nowhere, you know—and I came across this massive oak tree. It got me thinking: every adventure has to start somewhere. That’s the idea behind Chronicles Vol. 1 - Origins. It’s all about those first steps, the ones that feel a bit daunting but end up being totally worth it.
Every Adventure Has a Beginning
Starting something new can be a right mixed bag, can’t it? I’ve had moments where I’ve thought, "What on earth am I doing?" Like that time I went on a weekend away and left my jumper at home—in November! Not exactly my finest hour. But that’s the beauty of beginnings: they’re unpredictable, a bit chaotic, and somehow still brilliant.
This collection is inspired by moments like that. The earthy tones? They’re straight from the landscapes that remind me to stop and take it all in. The gold and teal accents? They’re like those unexpected little wins—a rainbow after the rain or stumbling across a cracking little café when you’re utterly knackered. Each piece is designed to be your go-to, whether you’re exploring the countryside or just figuring out your next move.
Key Features of Chronicles Vol. 1 - Origins
1. Versatility Meets Adventure
I’ll be honest: there’s nothing worse than clothes that can’t keep up with you. Origins is all about making sure you’ve got a kit that works anywhere. The lightweight fabrics? Absolute game-changer. I’ve layered the jackets on frosty mornings and shoved them in my bag by midday. And they’re tough enough to handle a muddy trek or, let’s face it, a cheeky pub stop.
2. Earth-Inspired Palette
One thing I’ve learnt from my adventures (and my fair share of mistakes) is that nature’s colour palette never lets you down. Warm browns, deep greens, sandy neutrals—these shades just feel right. They’re not in-your-face, but they’ve got this grounding vibe. And those pops of gold and teal? They’re like a little nudge to celebrate the wins, big or small.
3. Sustainable Design
Quick confession: I’ve bought stuff in the past and felt a bit guilty about it after. That’s why sustainability was non-negotiable for this collection. Origins is made with eco-friendly materials, and every piece is built to last. It’s our way of saying, "Let’s leave the world a bit better than we found it."
Style Tips for the Explorer at Heart
- Layer Wisely: Don’t make the mistake I did once thinking one layer would do. Start with a comfy base layer and chuck on a jacket or hoodie from the collection. Not only will you stay warm, but you’ll look like you’ve got your act together.
- Accessorise Your Adventure: I used to think accessories were just for posh dos. Turns out, a sturdy rucksack or a cool necklace can really pull a look together—and they’re practical too.
- Go Monochrome: If you’re like me and don’t want to overthink your outfit, stick to one colour family. Earthy neutrals are a winner. Mix up textures, like pairing a knit jumper with a sleek jacket.
- Contrast Accents: Feeling bold? Add a splash of teal or gold. It’s like adding a bit of personality to your outfit.
- Embrace Movement: One thing I can’t stand is clothes that feel restrictive. Origins pieces are made to move with you, so you can focus on your next adventure instead of constantly fiddling with your fit.

Here’s the thing: we’re all explorers in our own way. Whether you’re rambling through the Peaks or just navigating the daily grind, there’s something brave about showing up.
