Good Monday, good people. Last week (or the week before, I am losing track), I posted a new King’s Ginger piece from a very beautiful garden. I only like to post a couple of me in KGL posts as obviously, the focus is meant to be on the lovely drink and not my face. But…

Chasing chevrons
I’m getting to that point where my wardrobe is so stuffed with dresses that I am forgetting what I have in it. A couple of weeks ago, the lovely ladies at Gudrun Sjoden, knowing my penchant for all things Swedish at the moment, gave me this cute a-line skirt as a Midsommar present (as you can…
Pink, peach and a perfume bottle
For my King’s Ginger post a couple of days ago, I took some photos in the lovely little wildflower garden at the Natural History Museum and it seemed a shame not to record my outfit as well. This is an entirely modern outfit, perfect for casual days walking about on an assignment, although I am…
Catchups and shop snaps
Hi! Imagine it’s a Sunday, the weather’s not great and you’re pretty exhausted from a couple of weeks of hard graft doing various things, with ne’ery a moment to write blogs. So, you’re sitting indoors, processing dozens of photos and writing loads of posts to be scheduled in over the next couple of weeks. Welcome…
White (& red) out
London is currently blanketed by snow. Partially crippled in fact, as the trains are all up the creek and the roads are slippery, plus everyone gets to either go home early, or not come in at all depending on how far out of town you live, because once more the country cannot cope with a…
Vintage Inspired High Street
How do you feel when vintage becomes popular and creeps into the high street? Actually, scratch that… I’m not sure exactly why I’m asking it as a theoretical question when vintage as a look has been ‘in’ consistently for the last few years. Admittedly, the main high street brands are full to bursting of a…
Costume Capers – Vintage Halloween
Greetings on All Hallows Eve! I hope you’ve all got suitably spooky things going on this evening or next weekend (or last weekend as I did! Pictures soon)? Or at least, if you live in a highly child-populated area as I do, that you’ve stocked up on penny sweets to dish out to the costumed…
Maritime Monday
As much as I would have liked to have spent Monday by the seaside, on a canal, or even at a Lido; unfortunately, I had to spend it indoors. Working, and doing other such boring things. But at least the location gave me the opportunity to do another outfit post! Everyone loves a cheeky bit…
Sneaker Sunday
Yesterday, I wore a slightly excessive two outfits. Well one and a half, technically. There were good reasons for this, though. Comfort and creaseless driving was my essential outfit requirement for the morning… and something stylishly vintage was needed for the afternoon. But the afternoon needs much more writing up, so here’s a quick n’…
Quatre, Cinq, (iPhone 4S)ix
Oh dear. I did warn you that the quality of the photographs may be somewhat lacking in this Twelve Days of Christmas Outfits series. And I’m as good at my word! These ones are almost universally atrocious! But something visual is better than nothing, no?… and they are a good example of my ‘just knocking…
