Custom Made

To be honest I’m in a bit of a tizz today. The article I didn’t even expect to happen in the Sunday Times has also appeared in the Daily Mail and on Marie Claire.co.uk today and has lead to some more follow up calls from newspaper and radio stations. This has meant that my heads

In just a few weeks time it will be May. I know, shocking, huh? It’s funny how I go through periods of having next to nothing to do, and then suddenly everything comes along at once. Well, May is shaping up to be one of those months. One of the things that happens in May

What Are You Wearing? Black and White and Red and Blue

It’s a Bank Holiday Monday here in the UK. I hear Americans have to go back to work, so if you’re American, I’m sorry. For me, however, I have a day of boot fairs and relaxing pampering baths with Lush Bath Bombs planned in order to make myself feel like a Princess when we return
