The Week There May Be Snow

The weather man is threatening snow by the end of the week, but for now it is business as usual. Before the snow boots are needed I decided to wear a Primark jacket, Dorothy Perkins blouse under a Primark short sleeve jumper. The skirt is by Debbie Shuchat found at TKMaxx and finished off with Levi boots.

Off To Renew My Driving Licence

My Driving Licence is going to expire next month, so I need to find a photo booth and take a new photo before everything is sent in. These days you are not allowed to smile in official photos anymore. For such a unflattering photo, I am wearing a personalised shawl over a La Redoute wrap tunic and a vintage 1970's maxi skirt.

Cancer Research Ball


We had a lovely evening last night at the Cancer Research Bubbles and Bows ball. There was good food, great entertainment in the form of the Charlie Rivers Band and plenty of fun stuff to bid for in the Auction. Pulling together the outfit for this event was a bit too last minute for my liking as I only finished making the twisted, bubble skirt the day before. My usual preference is to be able to feel the a fabric before I buy it , but as time was tight I went for the online option and bought from Cheap Fabrics. It all worked very well, especially as the fabric was delivered quickly. The rest of the outfit comprises of a vintage jacket bought at Greenwich market 20 years ago, a bib necklace made with felt and various broaches, L.K. Bennett shoes and a clutch bag from Primark.
