Summer Weekends and Mexicana Embroidery

I really have the Monday blues today. It’s been such a wonderful weekend. There was gin, and champagne, and Andy Murray won Wimbledon, and today I just really don’t want to return to real life. So I’m going to put it off a bit by sharing photos of this adorable Love Ur Look dress. I

Summer Solutions

We’re definitely having a classic British Summer right now. By that I mean it’s raining a lot, but it’s still pretty warm and sweaty. A while ago now a friend of mine shared her friends new business, Lady B Loves, on Facebook. She sells some pretty lace edged anti chafe shorts. The design of the

Todays outfit is one I “rediscovered” almost a year ago. Which also makes it relevant to today’s #GlamorousJuly challenge to wear something “new” from the depths of your wardrobe.

Summer Leopard Print (and more things I shouldn't be wearing)

Remember all those things I’m not allowed to wear because I’m over 30? Apparently I don’t. It wasn’t till I came to edit these photos that I realised I’m wearing 2 of them in this outfit. There I was, innocently dressing myself in clothes I fancied wearing out for cocktails. Completely forgetting that both leopard

5 Pairs of Summer Sandals that will go with Everything

I’m not really well known for the practicality of my wardrobe. I try and strike a balance, but sometimes you just need to buy the novelty prints, right? Life’s too short for a boring wardrobe. There is one area where I am quite strict with myself though, and that’s shoes. Sure, I buy silly shoes,

Sunshine, A Summer Skirt and a Lesson of Some Kind

The weather in Norwich has been beautiful this last week. I believe some of the rest of you have had thunderstorms and torrential rains, but here in Norwich it’s been all blazing sunshine and balmy summer breezes. I have therefore been engaging in a particularly British pass time of wearing as many of my Summer
