Dear Photograph

I really wish I had thought of this idea. It's so simple yet so genius! 

Dear Photograph is a 4 week old blog dedicated to taking a picture of a picture from the past in the present. Tongue twister. I really can't wait to get home and start digging out some old snaps.

Oh George!

Only the One Night Only lead singer can pull this print off!

Camera Time!

I've been working extra hard this past month so I could buy a new camera and the time is here - I bought it!

Introducing my Canon EOS 60D.

Birthday love from afar

 It was one of my best friends, Joy's, 24th Birthday on Friday so I went cupcake wild and baked her these. Sadly as I'm not in the same country as her she never got to eat any but it was the thought that counts and I can verify they tasted gooddddd!

Coincidently Joy became an aunt for the 2nd time in 2 months on her birthday.  Massive congrats and I can't wait to see little Hanna Joy McMullen.

Yummy chiffon blouse!

How wonderful is this top! Fringing is my thing; I have fringed clothes galore - my favourites being my two Kate Moss fringe jackets. This sleeveless chiffon shirt featuring fringing to the collar and shoulder panels needs to hang in my wardrobe! I haven't uploaded any photos of the back but it's cropped. Yum! You can find it on Asos.com.

Favours

An elegant way to display wedding favors…which were vintage bottles of perfume for the ladies & cuff links for the gentlemen.

Cute proposal!

This is the cutest proposal ever - check it out here, at FY Wedding Ideas. 

PS: I want her engagement dress.

The best £10 I've ever spent

About a year ago I purchased a pair of white converse high tops from Office for only £10. Like, where can you ever get converse for a tenner? Luckily, I caught them in a sale and as Roxy works there I got some extra discount.

Sadly, the time has some where there are holes in the bottom, the stains in them won't wash out and it looks like they are dying a slow death but still, I can not bring myself to throw them out. They've travelled the world with me and protected my feet from all harm. They are in my top 4 pairs of shoes and boy do I have a lot of pairs of shoes.


I got a $50 gift card from work (employee of the month or something?!) so I went shopping and found these original Adidas trainers. $100 down to $70 and with a $50 gift card all I had to pay was $20. Bargain.


Now all I have to do is ween myself off of my converse as I definitely can't fit both pairs in my backpack!

So tell me, what's the best £10 you've ever spent?

A pregnant Lily Allen marries Sam Cooper in a Chanel lace gown


Lily Allen married her fiance Sam Cooper on Saturday in a beautiful Chanel dress.

As much as I love Lily and this dress, I'm not sure I love them together. I was surprised Lily would opt for something so traditional when in the past she was so radical and fashion forward. It's unfortunate the Royal wedding was only a month ago because all I can think of is how Kate's dress was nearly exactly the same. And as for that hat/veil thing? No. What do you think?


On a positive note - it was announced during Sam's speech that Lily is pregnant. How exciting! (I knew there had to be a reason for the baggy bump showing). I wish her all the blessings in the world.


Don't forget to keep following Vogue's - Today I'm wearing to see what Lily is wearing throughout the month of June.

Duchess of Cambridge is WOW.



The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge made their first “official” engagement since returning from their brief honeymoon in May, last night at a charity gala in London.
Kate looked absolutely flawless in a shimmering rose cap-sleeve sequined gown by British designer Jenny Packham. She completed the look with size 39, (interesting as I too am a size 39) LK Bennett shoes and a pink satin clutch.
I seriously want to be her.
