Iconic Styles: The Stiletto

The Stiletto heel is probably *the* iconic heel shape. Heels come in many other shapes, but none is as instantly recognisable, even to people who aren’t obsessed with shoes, as the stiletto.

What Are You Wearing? SNOW DAY!

I say Snow day, but in reality it’s more like a snow week. Norwich has been under snow now since last Monday, and as of this morning there was about 6″ outside. I’m getting a little tired now of only being able to wear the one pair of boots I own with grip on the

Today I’m taking a trawl through my Make Up bag. I’ve been through some of my essential skin care and beauty items in the past (though I might revisit some of them soon!) but I’ve never shared the items in my make up kit that I swear by for a perfect vintage look. This isn’t

Festive Nails – Christmas Nail Art

I must start by thanking you for your kind wishes on Monday’s post. I know sometimes I’ve read posts on blogs before where bloggers have talked about personal issues, and sometimes I’ve felt a little uncomfortable commenting as I know that I don’t REALLY know them.

Clarks Winter Warmers – Flat Winter Boots

I don’t know about you, but my feet are cold. It’s bitterly cold and icy outside, the sort of weather that looks beautiful through the window, or on the front of a Christmas card, but isn’t so much fun to pop to the shops in. Many years ago, in the *cough* 90s *cough* when I

Christmas is a time to treat yourself. And while I might be taking steps to prevent Christmas weight gain from getting out of hand, I still intend to be treating myself to some goodies.
