So here is my first attempt at a fishtail braid... you can't really see it very well but it looked awesome! I had just gotten up, so my face wasn't ready for camera exposure quite yet.... i also love this nail polish in pastel aqua blue.

The pin board is the only wall decoration in my kitchen at the moment, but i love having pictures of my friends and family to gaze at while i cook.... it also features a Tube map and Topshop postcard - representing how much i miss London!

Glam Wham

Here are some gorgeous pics that are inspiring me at the moment - some photography by amazing fashion photographer Guy Aroch, some stuff from Russian Vogue and a pic of Olivia Palermo's cool braid. I love the embroidered denim dress in the last photo and the red velvet dress in the second.... yum.

Boho Madness

Here's a cool lookbook inspired by the Coachella festival style. (Source LF) I'm loving the scrunchie, the loose, comfy fits and the accessories. It's a shame that due to MORE snow here in MT, I won't be wearing anything like this for a while...

Pastels and Pink

I'm loving the pastel colours in nail polish and make up at the moment - i also have a small obsession with these shoes from Zazzle.co.uk...

Friday!!

Some pics for Friday - i need to get inspired for the weekend. Ooh and i've been doing loads of art so i'll upload some of that soon...

Outdoor Pursuits...

Thanks to the much welcomed arrival of more sunshine today I am just about ready to start putting up tent-dens made from cotton shawls and have tea parties on the lawn. These pictures from the British Country Living April 2011 issue (and a few others) put me in the mood rather nicely. I love the mix of prints in the soft fabrics and cushions. Just throw in a glass of Pimms and a great book to read and it's perfection. Maybe i'll organise a tea on the lawn/in the woods in June/July sometime... ooh project! Now i'm thinking croquet and sandwiches.... i could get a bit carried away with this! I must miss England more than i thought!

Blast From The Past

I love these old photos - so gorgeous. I'm noticing that my taste in clothes and photographs has become a little more American since being here... interesting....
