Finally getting my 35 at 35 list started, with No. 32 ticked off. I’ve been wanting this tattoo for literally years so my list has spurred me on. Some of you may be aware that I’m a solicitor in my real life. I am also a Notary Public and have a motto which appears on my notary seal. This is something which will be with me … Continue reading Getting a Tattoo, Getting Ink Done
It’s Monday, it’s cold, it’s wet and generally pretty rubbish. So how about some 80’s infused synth pop to brighten up your day? Say hello to Lucy Taylor aka Pawws. This track sounds all sweet and demur but there’s something a little more cutting hiding in the lyrics. Basically it’s fab. Hope it’s cheered up your monday. Continue reading Turnaround
So turns out the place for nail art accessories in Poundland, who have thought. You all know I’m a sweetie addict so I’m in there fairly often to top up my office sweetie drawer, yes I have a whole drawer. Last week I came across this awesome little accessory wheel. They had loads of different ones, well worth a look. When I go for embellishment … Continue reading Leather-Studded Kiss
The nights may be getting a little lighter but nature is still conspiring against me, 5.30pm sunset is just not late enough. I never realised before I started this blog how difficult it is to get decent photos inside. There’s a constant fight with the artificial light, as you can see here either too dark or spotlights on you. Roll on spring indeed. My unintentional … Continue reading It’s like the Darkness is the Light
Valentines is always pretty low key for us, my man doesn’t really go in for organised romance. A nice meal at home with a good bottle of wine is the normal plan. Oh and if I’m lucky a beautiful bunch of roses delivered to work, this year it’s a Saturday so I think I’m outa luck on the roses. I have been trying to convince … Continue reading You’ll Be My Valentine, Valentine
Something a little bit different today but if you follow me on Instagram or facebook you may have noticed I have been slightly obsessed with this book recently. I was given it by a friend who read it in two days. I didn’t quite mange that but did devour it in a week. It’s written in diary entries, the go to style of writing just … Continue reading The Girl on the Train
This track put a big smile on my face when I heard it on Saturday. I was just in from washing my car and was frozen to the bone. I set Indie Shuffle to latest singles and this was the first track. It sounded immediately of summer instantly warming me up. Coleman Hell is the Toronto based producer behind the track. He’s part of The … Continue reading 2 Heads
Jumping is my new favourite pose. I see so many fashion blogs which are so perfect they’re like online magazines, that’s not a diss btw I love them. Let’s face it though my shots are never going to be that polished, might as well just mess around and have fun my my photographer sister. This is another dress is another little item I kinda forgot … Continue reading I’m Lightening on My Feet
One day late but better late than never right? With Valentines Day around the corner I had to go for red and hearts. I also forgot about these cute little caviar embellishments I have so had to work them into the design. The caviar beads are a little awkward to use, they go absolutely everywhere! Sticking to one nail is not too much work and … Continue reading On My Beating Heart
I had a Valentine’s wed-nails-day all planned but I had a lovely little dinner and catch up with my friend last night instead. So my nails are bare, not good. It’s been a while since I posted a workwear post. When you work till 5pm and it’s dark at 4pm it doesn’t leave much time for photos. I had to work last Saturday morning, not … Continue reading Works a Long Day
