Good afternoon. As is so often the way when I do photos for big articles like my last King’s Ginger one, I take a few extra photos for a super lazy outfit post. Because I *still* haven’t processed my holiday snaps, here is something of a holding post, featuring the outfit I wore to Purdey…

Pansies & Greenery
I have so many awesome things to write about but in the meantime, here’s just a straightforward outfit post! Everyone knows I love a good Swirl, but I haven’t bought one in ages! I just don’t look that often these days, due to funds and space. But I couldn’t resist this one. Pink pansies in…
An Ode to Oxi
Or…Vintage Clothing Care #1 Afternoon everyone! I hope this week is treating you all well, especially since it’s nearly over. Hurray! The subject of this post is something I alluded to last week. It is an ode to my love of the white powder, the life-changing, confidence-boosting powder that is… Vanish Oxi Action. You may…
The last sundress of summer?
Good afternoon everyone! Just a quick and dirty outfit post to keep you all amused while I write my little guide to looking vintage as the weather cools down (which I hope will be of interest). Last Friday, I decided to take a little walk with my mum around the Royal Horticultural Society gardens, and…
Shenanigans & a sorry
Hey fabulous people of blog land! Sorry it’s been a bit quiet round these parts, I’m going through some things at the moment and don’t feel much like blogging… although I am not going to let it stop me for long! I can’t let any more of the week pass without showing you some photos…
Bits and bobs
Gosh, time flies doesn’t it! I’m just popping in for a catchup, and a quick post about something I am up to this weekend. I get the odd request for appearances at events, but this is one that is quite close to my heart (or at least close to home!). I grew up in Haslemere,…
Oh, Calendar
I’ve just heard the most marvellous news – the calendar I did especially for the Watercress Line steam railway, has just gone to print! How exciting! It’s going to be on sale at the Watercress Line’s summer War on the Line event, which is taking place on the 5th and 6th June, and also commemorates…
The sound of silence…
Wotcher everyone, I just wanted to pop in and apologise for the fact that I’ve spectacularly failed to keep my new year’s resolution to make this blog more substantive, because so far in 2010, there’s been a complete dearth of interesting and informative posts on here. Since the turn of the new year I’ve been…
Away with the mossies
Well I thought it about time I updated you on my holiday to Antigua, seeing as I’ve now been back almost a fortnight! I got back very late on Sunday from another fantastic Rhythm Riot, so that will be the very next post (plus I need to give you all a visual break from my…
While I’m away… Jive 4 Life
A couple of weekends ago, I attended a marvellous bash down in East Grinstead. Jive 4 Life was a charity tea dance, in honour of a very worth cause: St Catherine’s Hospice in Crawley and tirelessly promoted by Brian Sims, the organiser. Brian goes to classes run by my swing dance teacher Nick Kirby and…
