magpie

I'm somewhat of a magpie where jewellery is concerned and I love all that tacky costume jewellery! But today I found something more sophisticated that oozes 'Upper East Side' appeal Anthropologie, until today I had never ventured to their website, they're experts in statement jewellery, most of it doesn't even need an outfit to go with it!

want ii

I think I've developed a slight American craze, hopefully so will the rest of the world as I want this too...
and who cares if I didn't go to university, I can pretend I went abroad to an Ivy League Legend to become a Princeton Tiger! And my Gossip Girl addiction has lead me to wanting this scarf and the 'gentleman' wearing it.

want

I know it's the middle of summer but today is all dark and gloomy and has got me thinking about autumn/ winter. I can never seem to pull off winter clothes very well, I love summer too much and I love my dresses and heels too much and have been known to wear skyscraper type heels in ice! But I've found something I absolutely love and want so bad, I've been searching for a baseball jacket and have finally found one on eBay- although I'd prefer a vintage one, I can't find one for love nor money and this one is amazing.

sequin dreams

I love this dress from TimlessVixenVintage on Etsy, if only I could afford it!!! And this cute little blue sequin dress from allencompanyinc


and here's a few other sequin things from etsy, I wouldnt wear them but I'd frame them as works of art

little treasures

Here's a few of the things I've found in the sales so far (when I'm no longer hobbling I plan to physically go to the sales).

Matryoshka dolls from Russia, I've fallen head of heels in love with them

And in the background is my 50p photo frame, and these are my fabulous baby blue shorts from H&M.

I love La Senza normally but even more when they have a sale, I bought a boyfriend night shirt- it’s amazingly comfortable and a set of underwear I’ve been longing for but couldn’t justify buying.

And here are some of my birthday presents, I have amazing friends that know me so well

Internet shopping <3

I'm already tucked up in bed trying to recover from my kiteboarding accident where I hit the ground rather hard and got dragged along a bit. I'm waiting for the bruises to come out and I'm in total agony, I'm in pain all down my side from half way up my ribs to the middle of my thigh. So basically I'm feeling sorry for myself and considering I can barely walk to venture in the mid season sales I'm so glad someone invented internet shopping, I'll share my finds later.

the beach

Yesterday I went to the beach at Minster, even though its pebbley it's one of my favourite beaches and I even went for a little swim. I took some photos on my iPhone using my new favourite app Hipstamatic add I think you should all get it!!
