Yesterday I popped into town with my sister for a spot if ‘window’ shopping. Of course the ‘window’ element disappeared pretty quickly when I discovered a lot of stores have sales on already, I figured prices are gonna fall in the proper sale in a few weeks so I managed to control myself. Well until I got into Primark that is, picked up a whole … Continue reading We are the Champions
And Monday! Don’t you just love a bank holiday weekend? If it’s as sunny as it was last weekend when I took these photos it will be even better. I foresee the first BBQ of the year taking place. This little red dress is becoming the favourite item in my wardrobe. I originally bought for my anniversary dinner and is gorgeous with some heels and … Continue reading Friday, Saturday, Saturday to Sunday
I know duster coats are all the rage but they’re not the cheapest and I’m not convinced their pastel loveliness is going to last more than one season. So when I spied this classic trench in Primark, at only £24 how could I resist. You may have seen my comments complaints about public transport, I’ve been without a car now for a few weeks. With … Continue reading Return of the Mac
This weekend was positively summery, I was even out without a jacket on Friday night and sunday afternoon. So this little snippet of sunshine has drawn me to summery little tunes and I came across Mapei. Born in Rhode Island she split her youth between summers at home and school Stockholm. There coolness of Stockholm definitely shines through in her tracks. She was orginally a rapper releasing … Continue reading Don’t Wait
My nails are all pretty short, after a series of breaks I filed them all down to make them even. Having a strong cheeky labrador can take it’s toll on your nails, especially when they want to run after everything that moves like mine. So this week my nails have a simple French manicure. I couldn’t resist adding a little sparkle though. Happy Hump day … Continue reading Sparkle

Mausi, pronounced mousey, are a quarter based in Newcastle. Fronted by siblings Thomas and Daisey Finetto originally from Milan, may account for the European party feel of … Continue reading My Friend Has a Swimming Pool
Oh my I’m so excited with the news that ChouChou, one of my favourite Scottish designers, is having a 24hr online sample sale next week. You may remember I picked up a beauty of a dress from Rebecca Torres’ sample sale a few weeks ago so I’m eager to see what I can pick up this time. I’ve gushed about ChouChou hoods enough already that … Continue reading ChouChou Sample Sale!
So despite it being a long weekend I still didn’t seem to find anytime to paint my nails over the weekend. Funny how quickly time flies when your nursing a hangover and catching up on your tv shows. This means no wed-nails-day, I know sad face. I started my new job yesterday and I’ll be on the train for a few weeks commuting till I … Continue reading It’s Ok?
Quick music Monday today cause I’m busy enjoying my bank holiday. I discovered Plastic Mermaids a few weeks ago in the blogosphere. Last week they added a couple of new tracks to soundcloud so I thought I’d share one with you. These five guys hail from the Isle of Wight and have attracted quite a bit if attention with their previous tracks, Polaroids and Dromtrop. … Continue reading Window Display
Friday was very much the an end if an era. I left my job after almost seven years to move on to hopefully greener pastures. It’s a bit scary leaving what you know and love but I’m sure it’s the right decision and will all work out. The hardest part was leaving all my colleagues friends. There were tears a plenty throughout the day and … Continue reading Another Turning Point, A Fork Stuck in the Road
