I got 99 problems, and skin like a vampire is most definitely one. Here's a (lighthearted, please don't write in telling me I need to get some real problems ...) look at some of the problems pale-skinned girls (and boys) have to deal with... (IDress: Old Navy; sandals: ASOS); patchy fake ...
This week I finally did something I've wanted to do for years now: I arranged for a local cleaning service to come and take care of my ironing. It was a little bit awkward, really - as most things are with me, obviously. I mean, the lady I booked was absolutely ...
01. Even although it’s been a few years now since I last visited this part of the world - and, even although I’m not actually from here - coming back still feels a bit like coming home. The Ponderosa is still next to the Bargain World, opposite the iHOP with ...
I was about to begin this post with an apology for the photo spam, but then again... you know those rare occasions when the perfect dress meets the perfect location? This was one of those times. The dress in question is the Boden Antonia wrap dress, which had arrived the day ...
This skirt is a bit of a departure for me.I mean, not in the sense that it's, a) RED and b) covered in polka dots, obviously. Those two elements are very much not a departure for me when it comes to skirts, let's not kid ourselves. This skirt is also, however, what ...
I've been relying on my sunglasses even more than usual, lately. And, I mean, it's true to say that I'm rarely seen without sunglasses, but most of the time it's because I'm secretly a vampire (As you can probably tell by the colour of my legs in these shots: I promise ...
Hey, remember that awesome outfit I was planning to wear at Easter, only it was freezing that day, so I ended up wearing jeans instead? This is that outfit, folks. Yeah, I know: it was well worth waiting two months for this, wasn't it? I mean, it's SO DIFFERENT from the kind ...
Because I have my finger right on the fashion pulse - not - and therefore rarely manage to scramble aboard the trend bandwagon until it's well and truly left the station, I finally bought a pair of culottes. They cost me £5. Last of the big spenders, huh? To be honest, though, £5 was ...
As you can probably tell from all of the outfit posts I've been doing lately, summer seems to have arrived early in Scotland this year (She said, cruelly tempting fate...), which has been both a blessing and a bit of a curse, really. I mean, it's MOSTLY a blessing, obviously. Some ...
I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll say it again, but, as much as I love dresses, they can be a little bit samey. Take this one, for instance: it's one of my absolute favourite items in my wardrobe, but, when it comes to styling it, I always tend to ...
Where have all the outfit bloggers gone? I was thinking about this over the weekend, as I scrolled through my Bloglovin' feed, and all of a sudden realised that there aren't many outfit bloggers left there - by which I mean people posting purely about what they wore every day, as ...
Before I go any further, I just wanted to say a quick thank you for all of your comments on Saturday's post about Rubin: I couldn't respond to them all individually (mostly because some of then made me fill up - in a good way, I hasten to add), but ...
September: it's a funny old month, isn't it? Sometimes it's hot, sometimes it's cold. Sometimes it still feels like summer, other times it does a passably good impression of the very depths of winter. You just never really know where you stand with September, do you? It's like everyone's least-favourite ex-boyfriend, ...
So, I totally forgot about my plan to make August 3rd of every year the official Red Gingham Skirt Day... ...mostly because it was one of the stupidest ideas I've had in a long time, and I speak as someone with a LOT of stupid ideas bubbling away in her head, ...
A couple of weeks ago I had the closet clear-out to end all closet clear-outs. I mean that literally, by the way: as in, there will be no more need for closet clear-outs in this house any more, because I cleared those closets out GOOD. Maybe a little bit TOO good, if ...
