The inspiration for these is an outfit I have planned for upcoming busy Friday night. Pairing my two favourites, green and monochrome stripes, is something I’m looking forward to. Unfortunately I may need to rethink given how cold it still is here; yes I’m officially old as I’m now picking an outfit for a nightout depending on the weather. Anyway, these are pretty fab regardless … Continue reading My Favourite Game
It’s spring now right, so that means it’s nearly summer? Ok I know it’s still freezing so maybe I’m stretching, this little tune from San Cisco will put you right in the mood for summer though. In fact if you turn up the heating and close your eyes you could even pretend we’re already there. Not only do this little Ozzy band have me dreaming … Continue reading Magic
I think it’s pretty clear from the photo above who the wild boy is? But to be fair we both had a ball running wild yesterday. All very fitting for the first outing of this Zoe Karssen Wild Boys tee, one of the bargains I picked up in The Outnet Clearance. And well what are Saturday’s afternoon for, if not having a little fun. So … Continue reading Wild Boys
Where indeed? The you I’m talking to is this beautiful spring weather and these awesome skinny jeans. After singing the praises of flares last week I discovered these Always Skinny jeans in Gap. They are cut slightly wider through the calf and hip to give a more flattering fit. I’ve always struggled getting my womanly hips and runners calfs into skinnies so they’re perfect … Continue reading You, Where the Hell did You Come From
My DIY posts have been seriously lacking of late. When Hillarys invited me along to their crafternoon it didn’t take long for me to reply. I didn’t realise that Hillarys were so crafty, but with every new line of fabrics they have a little craft event, explore what else can be made rather than just blinds. The lovely Ladies from The Crafty Hen were on hand … Continue reading Hillarys Crafternoon
What is it about men’s shirts that make them look so much better than womans? I tried this outfit with a few of my own shirts but this one stolen from the man’s wardrobe was a definite winner. I don’t think he’ll notice, he has a million. It is the perfect partner for these flares, didn’t I tell you I was all about the … Continue reading I Can See You with My T-Shirt On
The full midi skirt made a serious comeback last year, I somehow haven’t yet managed to pick one up though. In recent months I’ve become a bit obsessed with them. I kinda want one in every colour but typically every one I fall in love with is massively out of budget. All of these dreamy skirts I came across on Pinterest. While I was exploring … Continue reading For Your Finest Inspiration
Remember I said the Poundshop was the place for nail art accessories? Well I found another little treat the other day when I was in. Little pots of ‘velvet’ dust. The idea is you sprinkle them on while your nails are wet and they create a soft velvet effect. I went for a blue … Continue reading Like Velvet to My Skin
Funny how a little bit of sun can really effect your mood, gotta agree with Kanye on that one. Now we’re into March I find my mood has really brightened as I look towards spring. I know I look a little grumpy in these shots but I promise I’m just squinting with the sun, note to self remember shades. I’ve got my 35 at 35 … Continue reading Woke Up an Optimist, Sun shining I’m Positive
Is it just me or does orange poncho scream 70’s style. I am very excited about the return of 70’s trend and looking forward to filling my wardrobe with flares, suede and more faux fur. Lucky for me the lovely people at J D Williams sent me a few things from the knitwear collection. Included was this very poncho giving me a head start on … Continue reading Go Your Own Way
