My husband blindsided me the other day. The conversation went something like this: “You know we’re off to Portugal next month, and I’d kind of like to get a new swimsuit for the trip. I’ve seen these really lovely ones at j.crew that are one-pieces, but you know, really sexy one-pieces not like frumpy one-pieces….
“Everything that’s already in the world when you’re born is just normal, suggested Adams. Anything created between birth and the age of 30 is incredibly exciting and creative and with any luck you can make a career out of it. But whatever is invented after you’ve turned 30 is against the natural order of things…
So, another Valentine’s Day behind us. To be perfectly honest with you, Mr M. and I don’t 100% buy into it all anymore. Queueing up with 30 other people to buy mediocre chocolates, spending £5 on a card because all the £2 ones are really lame or dripping in awful sexual innuendo (do they do…
Happy Valentine’s day lovelies! While today will probably be filled with shades of crimson and ruby (and hopefully LOTS of chocolate), I thought it would also be a good day to feature this beautiful inspiration board that I’ve been working on for a while – the palest shades of blush pink, nude and blossom come…
Me at the Eastbourne Half Marathon last year As you may have read in my New Year’s post on dieting earlier this year, I love to run. I have been running on a reasonably serious basis for about 6 years now, and have run the London Marathon every year in that period. I run…
So next week is all about blush – I have several mood boards coming up for you that are just gorgeous. I am currently massively inspired by all shades of blush pink ( as you may have seen in my post on Wednesday on the beautiful Elie Saab dresses) and my upcoming 2012 collection features…
I came across these backstage photos of the Elie Saab 2012 collection on the This is Glamorous blog - aren’t they absolutely stunning?? Source all photos: This is Glamorous blog This next photo is just so beautiful – all the shades of pink, the sparkle, and those gorgeous ponytails! One other point to note –…
A friend posted a copy of Henry Miller’s work schedule from 1932-1933 on Facebook the other day, and it struck me how little has changed in 80-odd years. We think our lives are so different with everything the noughties has brought us – twitter, Facebook, pinterest and all the rest. Turns out things aren’t so very…
Earlier this week, my husband and I were mooting the idea of going out together once a week. On a date, if you will. You see, with the huge amount of time, focus and effort that goes into growing a business (as well as working a dayjob), we were starting to see less and…
Up until these last few days, I have felt strongly that Spring was just around the corner. The cherry blossoms were starting to come out in all their gorgeous pink glory, and the crocuses braving their heads above the ground next to the more seasonal snowdrops. However the frosty mornings we’ve had these last few…
