  • This Year I Resolve….

    I never make New Years resolutions. Starting the year with a long list of aims and targets with which to punish yourself after the excesses of Christmas always seems, well, just plain wrong. Psychologists have revealed, presumably through extensive research, something that I could have told them all along if they’d just asked. That most…

    Christmas Trees of the World (ish…)

    So, it’s very cold and I’ve already eaten far too much chocolate. This means that it’s DEFINTELY Christmas time. I posted photos of my Christmas tree/bunch of twigs back at the beginning of December, and I wanted to see yours! I’m still surprised by the number of people not having a tree, even when I…

  • Show Me Your Christmas Tree!

    Well, we’re now a full week into December, present buying panic is well and truly setting in and I’ve already discovered that some of the things that DO taste better than skinny feels are mince pies, mulled wine and really cheap chocolates from the pound shop. But, most importantly…. MY DECORATIONS ARE UP! This year…

    Stop Press: Lulu Guinness Feeds Cake to Fashion Bloggers

    Yesterday afternoon I dragged myself into rain sodden London for a rather pleasant afternoon tea at the Met Bar with 7 other Fashion Bloggers. Lulu Guinness is embracing this new exciting world of social media and blogging in a way that makes me wish all designers were as switched on and would treat me to…

  • A Trip to the Beach

    This weekend I abandoned my computer completely. I don’t think it missed me, it was probably glad of the rest. The next few weeks are shaping up to be busy as September appears to be the new August where Weddings are concerned and I get to watch 2 very close friends tie the knot. It’s…

  • What Happens at a Burlesque Lesson?

    This weekend I went to a friends Hen Party, which included a Burlesque Lesson in the afternoon. I have to say I absolutely loooved the Burlesque lesson, despite the outfit traumas it gave me! Burlesque lessons naturally come in many variations, from those aimed at established burlesque artists looking to improve their craft, to group…

    Top 5 Tips to have fun with no money

    When you have no money, whatever the reason, it’s easy to resign yourself to a life of 10p Supermarket noodles, (economy) beans on (economy) toast and endless sit com repeats on TV. But it doesn’t need to be that way. Redundancy, lack of availability of credit, falling interest rates for savers and rising interest rates…
