... no write. I know. I have been wretched. I have myriad excuses. I got married. I had a honeymoon. I moved house. I got stuck in a whirlwind job that spared me no moments for style musings and miss...
Cant resist these lightbulbs!!!
The sun is shining. Londons parks are overflowing with pink limbs, picnic blankets and bottles of cava. The slowly-baking pavements are empty. I am sitting in my vast, yet equally empty office, wishi...
How cool are these Japanese cups? Id love to surprise my guests during a tea party. To be served with animal crackers, naturally.
...not blogging, but I dont need to tell you that. Instead of putting fingertips to keyboard, I have been making giant pom poms (60 of them), researching signature cocktails (vodka, ginger and rosema...
... but Im still smitten with these beautifully ornate chocolate eggs from Fortnum & Mason. With more than a hint of Victoriana, the charmingly old-school creations are actually made with moulds ...
Today, movie stars arent so special. They have no mystique, no aura of the unknown. They just arent deliciously untouchable anymore. They tweet snaps in their bathroom and reveal unsavoury snippets a...
I spotted these gigantic flowers twisted around an old step ladder a few months ago while at the Mulberry headquarters. As I marvelled at them, the PRs revealed theyd be officially unveiled at the fa...
...short shorts and sassy skirts and bright colours and brighter lipstick and messy up-dos. I worship at the altar of J.Crew. I know that sometimes it can feel a little preppy and maybe for you Ameri...
I am seriously trying to diet. Its just a little over two months til our big day and I feel like if Im ever going to be able to focus on shifting the pounds its now. So far, so good. In the last ten ...
All hail the birds nest. This look (seen above in Lanvins catwalk show last season - okay, its an old example, but its still oh so pretty). I have been creating versions of this sky-high messy bun fo...
My uber cool design friend Loz just texted me about these stunning pom poms and I had to share. The brains behind Pom Pom Factory, graphic artist Karen Hsu graduated from Central Saint Martins and ha...
I thought I lived a pretty glitzy existence... until this weekend. My New York hen do proved to be possibly the most fabulous extravaganza ever. My gang of Manhattan girls have more glamour credentia...
Just recovering from possibly the most fun weekend in New York ever. Please forgive the fact that the next series of posts is Manhattan themed but after an embarrassingly long absence (Im sorry! Work...
Im a little bit in love with scallops. They feel so whimsical and pretty - but not overly twee. I even purchased a pair of scalloped scissors the other day to decorate my wedding stationary... Ive al...
How charming are these earrings in a bottle from Enelle? Not sure if Id actually go crazy for bees hanging from my ear lobes, but the little bottle is just darling.
Dress? Check. Shoes? Check. Statement headpiece? Umm. Im still deciding whether to go veil/feathers/giant silk blooms/embellished headband. Actually thats a bare-faced lie. I know exactly what Im doi...
Im not really a cheesecake girl, but I made this a few weeks ago and became a little obsessed. In fact I had to invite friends over for supper again this week just to give me another excuse to make o...
Pretty much in love with all of this new lingerie from Agent Provocateur. From the scallops to the frills to the lace, there is just enough prettiness to make this racy collection feel feminine too. ...
Okay, theres still two months until we jet off for my hen weekend in Berlin, but I am too excited not to share our urban dwelling with you all! MichelBerger is a 119 room old factory building which h...
This is our handsome old pussycat, enjoying the sunshine on one of our battered armchairs, last Autumn. But he was a long way into the Autumn of his years and today, the lovely old boy finally said f...
Sometimes I figure its okay to be behind the times when half of America seems to covet something weve never heard of this side of the Atlantic. Thats how I felt when I recently discovered Tucker by G...
When my dad cut down a slim silver birch tree in his garden, I instructed him to saw the trunk into perfect-sized logs and have since used them to fill the old Victorian fireplaces in my sitting room...
Im thrilled to tell you we have a houseful this weekend. Our lovely pals are heading down to London for park walks, river cruising, a visit to the aquarium and lots of good food. In celebration (and ...
I have managed to avoid sale shopping quite superbly. Okay, I did treat myself to a navy lace pencil skirt, but beyond that Ive been remarkably reserved. Everytime I go to hand over my credit card (f...
Writing thank you notes is twee enough (although Ill never tire of it), so at least your notelets can possess a little modern attitude. I love these, which Ive just discovered on J.Crew. Theyre from ...
The chiming in of the new year was my excuse to ramp up the wedding planning. Actually thats a fib - I have been slowly and steadily working towards my vision and with all the big stuff booked and lo...
Its January, so naturally Im dieting. But this isnt a wagon that I can fall off next week. I have to be strict all the way to May. Ugh. Just writing that makes me feel deprived. So how am I planning ...
Merry Christmas lovely readers. Im sorry my posts have been a little sparse since starting my new lofty (okay, harrowing) journalistic gig. Im still falling in love with clothes I cant afford, pining...
The last few minutes are ticking by before I can leave my desk and whizz away home to panic wrap presents, slurp port and sigh with relief that Christmas is finally HERE. But enroute I will be stoppi...
