During March it dawned on me that my concern wasn't with the amount of money I spend on clothes, but with the amount of clothes I have that rarely see the light of day. At the beginning of 2013 I set a monthly budget of £58 but when you consider how much you can buy second hand for that amount, it wasn't going...
The return of Bloggers Do It Better. The theme is B&W Stripes - the idea was go big or go home. I found the-most-fabulous maxi dress on eBay - perfect for this challenge and a mass of bold stripes in all directions. The end of the auction drew near and I was ready to make it mine. And then my Mum phoned. Game...
Dear Blog, I've been neglecting you and I'm sorry. I've just been so darn busy! Setting up as a freelance graphic designer is fun, it's exciting, it's something I've be wanting to do for the longest time, but, heck, it's exhausting! There isn't a day goes by when my emotions don't go from 'oh my god, what am I DOING?!' to 'this is...
I love Red Nose Day and always get involved in one way or another. This year was no exception and, like many other bloggers (and non bloggers for that matter), I took the opportunity to relieve TK Maxx of one whole English pound by uploading a piccy of myself in a RND t-shirt. Using the app, my '50 Ways To Wear' entry was...
Yay! My iPad sleeve arrived and as promised - here it is. I was beginning to wonder if it would ever get here. I've obviously been spoiled by the rise of next day delivery options. I ordered this on the 19th Feb and it arrived yesterday. That's 1, 2, 3... *counts in head* 23 days! Still, it was worth the wait. Previously I've...
A little on the late side but here are purchases for Feb. The month went by so quickly that I didn't really get my shop on... that said I still managed to buy nine items! I had a wardrobe cull and found plenty of things to donate to charity, so I don't feel too bad - my wardrobe still has slightly less in...
When I saw this Two Birds inspiration photo (top right) I thought I didn't own anything with spots, however, on closer inspection of my wardrobe I actually had two dresses (of the wedding guest variety), a scarf and this top. I'd forgotten about all of them - isn't that awful? I found this (Monsoon) top in a charity shop back in November. I...
Images from Accessorize Dear Accessorize, Can you please add a drop dimension to earring descriptions on your website? Please. I just can't tell from an image on a white background how big they actually are. I'm not a fan of big Pat Butcher style earrings, I prefer something more subtle. I was certain that what I had ordered would be of the less-than-an-inch-drop...
