oh err Mrs

I am a sucker for a good TV Drama and ITV are killing it at the moment with Mrs Biggs (which is just my style, uber retro with big red hair) and The Bletchley Circle which was so clever. I wish I could be part of the writing team for such gripping stories that come straight to your tele box!

....behold picture of Sheridan Smith looking AMAZING as Mrs Biggs.

In news that involves me occasionally leaving the house, I am now an Auntie to the most beautiful Baby Boy in the whole wide world, (obviously) Axel.

Work is tinkering along, a new catalogue will be live in 2 weeks-there is always a sense of achievement when a project is finished.

Plus my lovely guy has arranged a few things for us to do this month including going to an indoor forest, a gig of a band I like and a surprise (!) which I literally have no idea what it is.

So lot sof things to be cheerful about.

Like duh!

I don't profess to be anything other than Clueless about fashion, I wear what I like but sometimes I konw it may be verging on fuggly. However on Saturday I paid tribute to one of my favourite teen films via my dress...Cher horowitz I love you. One of my mums old dresses with pleated skirt put with flea market anchor belt, and boot sale daisy brooch and old ballet shoes. My aim today was to look like a total betty!

Although I'd like to be friends with Cher I have a feeling that Amber and I would get on better.

Ps the use of Might might bosstones music in the film rocks my world.

Lady Love

I will always love Debbie Harry and her casual punk chic. I am chanelling her with a vintage cacherel shirt with sailor collar, charity shop jeans, tweed mens blazer, anchor brooch (just seen) from a bootsale and logger boots now all i need is a one way ticket to 70s New York.

Drop Dead Fred

My love for Fred Perry has long been around- thanks Dad for showing me too many photos of you as a youth rocking the button up polo shirt, I like to wear them with everything-in this case a vintage spotty skirt, t-bar studded flats and an 80s Moschino bag.

So I have been posting some what sporadically mainly as this blog is meant to be a 'if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all ethos' so with the last few days I've felt it best to stay quiet!!!

However I have a few exciting things on the horizon, firstly I move homes today to a lovely two floor flat in North London with two lovely girls Alice & Meredith so that is very exciting and I can't wait to do my room up a bit and post some pictures!

Secondly this coming week I am the FruGal for the eco-age blog. A fantastic site dedicated to making eco fashionable and run by the equally fashionable Livia Firth. So anyhow my challenge is to wear vintage solidly for 1 week, shouldn't be two hard- apart from the shoes! So I will posting my outfits each day on their site and will give you some previews here!

Also I keep forgetting that I have a guest spot on the BODIEandFOU blog where I put up inspiration images vs product images of the lovely things that they sell. Check it out over at their blog weekly. See above for a few examples!

In the coming weeks I will also be doing some photos for a new online digital mag so stay posted for that.
