This Week I……

Happy Easter! As you read this I am probably just about finishing the Trowse 10k, because that’s the kind of thing I like to do on an Easter Sunday, run 10k in the rain. If it’s after 12, then hopefully I am in the pub. So I hope you are all having equally productive Easters

Style Evolution Mk II – 5 Years of My Personal Style

Sometimes I find it amazing when I realise I’ve been blogging for 8 years. Last week while I was scrolling through old posts and doing all those maintenance things, like fixing broken links and images and updating out of date bits, I found an old post I’d written about how my personal style had evolved

Outfit Post: Rock n Roll Vintage

I couldn’t resist going a bit rock n roll vintage with this skirt. It’s a blooming amazing skirt, full, black cotton from Ted Baker, with a button fastening back, wide high waist and POCKETS! And it didn’t cost me a penny thanks to my lovely friend Lori from Rarely Wears Lipstick having a wardrobe clear

This Week I……

Well hello and a very happy Sunday to all of you! It’s 10am and I’m actually writing this in bed, which feels very lazy, but that’s what Sundays are for (unless you work at the weekends, then maybe that’s what Thursdays are for, make the most of them.) I am planning to get up and

Norwich Fashion Week 2016 – The Vintage Show

I had intended today to be a round-up of a few things I’d been to see during Norwich Fashion Week 2016. Except in the end I only went to see one as that lurgy that was threatening on Sunday has turned up and knocked me for six so I am currently a big self-pitying mess.

Recipe: Scrambled Eggs & Ham with Schwartz Oregano

I have to confess I have a cupboard stuffed with jars of dried herbs that I rarely use. Many of them went out of date years ago, so don’t really taste of anything any more. It’s not that I don’t want to use them, it’s just that I seem to forget they are there. When

The Dress That Isn't What it Says it is…..

When I see the words “Midi Dress” I expect that on my 5’4″ frame it will come to at least below my knees. I own 3 lovely body con midi dresses from New Look, in a Pow Print as well as plain Black and Green, and they’re all about that length. So when I ordered

This Week I……

Hello Sunday! I’m not feeling on top of the world today. I’m not sick. Yet. I just feel like rubbish. All my team mates ARE sick so my white blood cells are probably in the middle of an epic battle right now which will either result in me feeling fine by next week, or spending
