7 Things You Probably Already Knew About Me…..

Well, it seems I am a stylish blogger. I don’t often do the award thing as I find it all a bit confusing and I can never think of who to pass them onto and I don’t want to leave people out, and, and, and….. You get the idea. However I have now been given

A World of Coincidence

On Saturday I spent the day trawling the charity shops and antique markets of Norwich. This is one of my favourite pastimes when I’ve actually got money to spend (nothing more depressing than not being able to afford something in a Charity Shop!) Sensibly dressed in my Heyday trousers and a jumper I wrapped up

Norwich Gets a Fashion Week!

I do London Fashion Week, but it’s not always that inspiring for me. It’s trend driven, rather than style driven and while I’ve found some amazing new companies and seen some amazing things, I find all the self conscious, over styled Fashion Students and hangers on a little depressing.

And This Time it's National…..

Sorry for the late post today. I’m sure you somehow managed to get through the morning without me. I’m going to pick the winners of the What Katie Did Besame lipstick giveaway this afternoon and I’ll announce them all tomorrow. If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook you’ll probably know that I was on

Sponsor Spotlight – Pin Up Parade

Pin Up Parade has been my sponsor for over 6 months now, but shamefully I’ve only just got around to properly introducing you!

*Sigh* New Years Resolutions…..

Do you make New Years Resolutions? I don’t normally. The problem with New Years Resolutions is that you expect them to start on New Years Day, then you fail. January is a depressing enough month already without setting yourself up for failure before it’s even started. This year, however, I do find myself making some,

Happy 2011!

Or not? Once again it’s that time of year when I am harshly reminded that not everyone else  spends their time scouring the calendar for potential excuses for a party and that the prospect of forced jollity can turn the loveliest of fun loving people into a grinchy old scrooge. If you hate it, don’t

Top of the Retro Chick Pops 2010

Well, there’s just 3 days left of 2010…. How was it for you? It’s been an interesting one for me. Starting with the immense weirdness of appearances in several National newspapers back in April, I’ve also done 2 live radio interviews, enjoyed judging the Simple Teen Star competition and working with some fabulous people like

Happy Christmas!

Well, Christmas Eve finally arrived! I feel I should post some kind of amazing festive outfit post, but the truth is that right now I am wearing scotty dog pyjamas with my hair in pin curls so you’re probably better off if I don’t. I hope you all have a FABULOUS Christmas and Santa brings
