Like a Flower Waiting to Bloom
Summer this year is very much a delicate flower, make too much noise when the sun comes out and she quickly hides away again. Days that start with sunshine and end with wind and rain make for some difficult dressing.
A Very Big House in the Country
This isn’t the country though, this the middle of the city.

Layering at St. Andrews
A tiny little glimpse of the beauty that is St Andrews in the back ground here. This is my third trip to The Old Course since starting this blog and finally I had a photographer. Unfortunately we had only a small window in between speakers and we didn’t have time to pop to the beach. As usual I ended up a little worse for wear … Continue reading Layering at St. Andrews
If At First You Don’t Succeed
Never try to paint your nails in a hurry, it’ll always end I disaster. I was planning a design using matt and gloss top coats. After almost a hour it was obvious there wasn’t enough of a contrast on this red for the design to work. Did I give up? Nope, if at first you don’t succeed and all that. I layered up on the … Continue reading If At First You Don’t Succeed
Grabbed My Hat
Something I’ve been hearing a lot about recently is third pieces, that little extra that just makes an outfit. Taking your standard top and bottom and adding a third piece making you outfit blog worthy. The easy choices are to add a hat, scarf or cute bag. Some statement jewellery, amazing shoes or colourful coat can also do the trick. As you may have noticed … Continue reading Grabbed My Hat
You’ll Be My Valentine, Valentine
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
On My Beating Heart
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
Works a Long Day
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
Painted It Red
I wasn’t sure these were even worth a wed-nails-day post given how basic they are. I painted them quite simply to match my outfit for a black tie dinner last Friday. A week on and I’m really liking them. The gold line helps lengthen my nails, helpful as two were broken playing with Seb on our holidays. The little dots are just kinda fun. Oh … Continue reading Painted It Red
