The French Connection Samantha Dress I've noticed this gorgeous French Connection sequin dress popping up here and there over the past few weeks. I can see this dress worn with killer heels, a piece of statement jewellery - earrings or a ring - finished off with a box clutch and teamed with tanned pins, casual up-do and natural make up.

Attending Very's Christmas Catwalk Show. Held in London's Bloomsbury with the X Factor contestants in attendance. Read my VBlog post about it here and see the rest of my photographs here. But before you do, can I just share with you the shoe's Rebecca wore on the evening of the show - KG Isadora studded shoes. They're even more gorgeous in the flesh. Katie...

I loved my Christmas stocking as a child (and still love it as an adult). The little gifts and trinkets my Mum found to fill my stocking never failed to delight me. I think a good Christmas stocking should have these things. 1. chocolate 2. a sugared mouse 3. a satsuma 4. hazelnuts (at least four) 5. something silly 6. something unexpected and pretty 7....
When you think of it in terms of days Christmas Day doesn't seem so far away. I have recently had reason to put in place self-imposed ban on 'treating myself' (more on that another day). So with Christmas only 39 days away I have been scratching my retail itch by purchasing Christmas gifts for others. I rely heavily on Amazon for my online Christmas shopping. It...
Christmas. Christmas. So much to say, I'll start at the beginning... My Childhood Christmases As a child I remember the stockings. To me they were the most exciting part of the day and even though, at the age of four, my older brother told me that Father Christmas didn't exist, deep down I still wanted to believe. How else would my stocking be filled?...
I had forgotten that I'd ordered Sonic Boost Vibrating Mascara from Glynis, my lovely Avon Lady. I was reluctant to try it though as I'd recently found a friend in the form of Rimmel's Lash Accelerator Mascara, I was concerned that it's powers would wear off if I strayed... My lashes are long but fine and straight and were, until recently, VERY badly...
Knitting. I had a deadline to finish knitting this for my friend's brand new baby girl, Lila. Until yesterday bunny had only one arm and no ears... I almost don't want to give her away. Sewing. To keep me out of mischief I made up this corsage kit from Nonesuch Things, although I had to chuckle when I read on the back it...
With my Christmas shopping list still very much in its infancy, I remain firmly in winter wardrobe mode. The colder it gets the more layers I seem to buy! Please forgive the functional feel of my particular pieces this week, I have a cold and am in need of comfort clothes... Curved Hem Pocket Jumper Very.co.uk Slouchy, soft jumper for lazy winter Sunday's,...
Queen of Hearts Ring I am LOVING this ring. I found it whilst perusing nonesuch things (a regular indulgence of mine). It comes 'flat packed' and you just have to pop out the pieces and follow instructions to fit it together. Great idea with gorgeous results. It comes in three sizes and will cost you a mere £15.00 - what's not to love?...
I was right when I said 'No doubt this list [of blogs I follow] will grow as I fall further into the world of blogging'. Blogging has me bewitched! I can spend hours reading blog posts, linking to other blogs that I end up following, following who my followers follow... you get the picture! What draws me to a blog is getting a feeling...
