Favours

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

Lucy in Disguise


Lily has gone and done it again. She is a very talented artist, she knows her fashion and owns, what looks like, every girls dream store.

Lucy in Disguise opened up it's shared dressing up box recently and oh my does it look a treat.

A retro hair and makeup salon (with cocktail and champagne lists and a tea party option; perfect for hen parties) below in the store's huge basement is a clever touch, as is the renting service; more expensive pieces can be hired out for three-day periods, at a tenth of the retail price. A personal bonus (as my bf gets very impatient shopping) is that there's no chance for HABs (husbands and boyfriends) to get bored, as there is a dedicated lounge area complete with a Playstation and vintage Men's mags. 

If anyone is in London soon, please go visit and let me know what you think as it's going to be another year before I'm home and able to visit myself.

SOFA so good

I have a thing for chairs/sofas. I love them. Tom and I had a wonderful date day and found a lovely little vintage styled restaurant called 'The Moon' a few minutes walk from our house. The outside/back area had lots of old worn chairs that just made the place look authentic, cosy and old. I like old. 
Top from Romwe, Skinny Jegging Jeans from All Saints, Converse from Office.
I love this chain strap floral bag, it's from Topshop
That night we went on a ghost tour of Fremantle Prison. This meant walking around a run down prison in darkness at 10pm with the smallest torch man ever made. We didn't see any ghosts and it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be (thankfully) AND afterwards we went to The Loft where they have more lovely, lovely chairs.

Fancy Treehouse

Ok, so I ridiculously overdosed in photographs here. I told myself to only put up the ones I love but I love them all!

This is Coury. Other wise known as 'Fancy Treehouse' or my girl crush. I have been following her blog for quite some time now and it still inspires me yet makes me envious of all her wonderful clothes. She shows us that you can still have a great style on an affordable budget. The best thing about Coury's blog is that you can buy quite alot and more of the items modelled on her Ebay Store. Score!


<-- I fell in love with this top so much that I went right over to Romwe and purchased it, hurray for free international shipping!!!

This black and white jumper is also available from Romwe.
