Hey y’all. To tide you all over until I have some nice outfit shots to post (no idea when that will be… but at least I can do summer clothes now, thanks sunshine!), I have some competitions and events to write about. First up – I was emailed by the fab LoveurLook, who are a…

Vintage Valentine Giveaway #2 – the winner!
Well, an astonishing 591 of you entered my competition with What Katie Did, and I now have the very great pleasure of announcing a winner. Picked at random by Katie (not sure whether it was electronically or with an old fashioned eyes closed/pencil method, but I assure you it was random), the prize goes to……
Vintage Valentines Giveaway #2
Following on from my Valentines Giveaway #1, the winner of which shall be announced later today, the brand I’ve partnered up with for my second Valentines giveaway hardly needs much introduction. They are a bastion of the vintage scene, providing the foundations for pinup bombshells’ and 40s re-enactors’ outfits – literally – for well over…
Vintage Valentine Giveaway #1
Good morning you gorgeous people! I have a rather exciting post for you today. But first, a question. Are you more of a sweet, cotton candy girl? Or a dark-hearted temptress? You’d better make your mind up, because by the end of this week, one of my readers, somewhere in the world, will win one…
ghd winner revealed!
Hi all! Apologies for the delay in doing this draw – I found out on Wednesday last week that I could blag an artist pass to Bestival, and so the ensuing day was spent running around like a blue-arsed fly trying to get things sorted. My weekend therefore looked like this (more later). But as…
A ghd old giveaway
Is your hairdryer a bit tired, lifeless, lacking in power? Generally a bit rubbish? Mine is. It’s not even that old – a few months at most. It’s because I was stingy. Cheap hairdryers aren’t all that great – WHO KNEW? NB. Hairdryers don’t work outside. Also excuse my totally casual hairdo today! If you…
Free frocks & … that’s it.
Oh hi! Here begins an edit to the previous post… It seems that, due to adverse weather conditions, the Retro Festival has been cancelled. This is a huge shame, both for the Mafia and me; and for everyone involved with the festival. Let’s hope it’s reinstated next year. But it’s rather better news for you…
Bit Bobs
Yoo hoo! I did plan to put this up yesterday, but the cretinous people at o2 Broadband ruined that plan. I’d love to have a full day of internet connection at some point… but enough about that. I’d like to announce the winner of the Vintage Trudy card giveaway, before regaling you with some more…
What a card!
Just nipping in with a little giveaway for you all. I was emailed a week or two ago by artist Twinkle Troughton with a really interesting little story about her Nanna Trudy, who moved to the UK in 1951 from Holland, after it was devastated by WWII. Here is some blurb, lifted straight from the…
Gingembre Libre
I spend a lot of time writing about the King’s Ginger on here, but it’s been a while since I offered any up to you lot. So I’m rectifying this! As all you Brits know, we’re suffering from something of a cold snap at the moment. Not only that, but it’s also nearly Valentine’s Day! …
