    Wish List: Le Tour Inspired!

    Has anyone else spotted a few bicycles out and about on Yorkshire’s bunting-lined streets the past few days? Yes? Me too! There must be something going on, don’t you think? Hooray for Le Tour! Hebden Bridge was an absolute delight today and most of the town (apart from a few grumbly so-and-so’s) have made so much effort to celebrate the Tour De France and Yorkshire’s participation in it. Sunday is the big day for us, and we’re hoping for a little sunshine…

    Autumn Style: 5 Tunic Dresses

    Today I wore my boots and a warm coat for the first time in months and I have to admit it felt blooming glorious, the rain didn’t bother me one jot. Yes, I am that annoying person. I much prefer Autumn/Winter style to any other and I’m excited to wear the whole caboodle again including scarves, gloves, knee-high boots, thick tights and cardigans.

    Tote of the Week: Navy Canvas Tote via Joules

    Is it Friday already? Crikey. Well, happy Friday to you, wherever you may be! Joules is a favourite brand of mine, more so now because of my attempt to wear cheerful and colourful clothing and accessories. Speaking of which,  I adore the contemporary floral design of this Navy Canvas Tote Bag – a smart buy if you own just the one tote bag (priced £44.95). Not forgetting the striped handle, ooh I do like a floral-stripe combo! Happy Friday!  ♥

    Home: 5 Stay in Bed Duvet Covers

    Living in rental accommodation can mean there’s a limited amount of decorating you can do to make your home exactly how you’d like it. Luckily we have lovely landlords who allow us to hang pictures, paint, wallpaper etc but there is only so much you want to do, without spending too much money. Which is why I adore textiles. A cushion, a curtain, even a tea towel can change the feel and warmth of a room for the better but…

    The Humble Wellington Boot

    Greetings readers! Here’s a little post about the humble Wellington boot, official sponsor of Autumn/Winter and kicking leaves. I’ve teamed up with Joules to delve into the world of womens wellies – I can’t think of a nicer thing to do on a wet and windy morning. I best brew up! I began my welly love affair as a 16-year-old festival-goer, prancing (and dancing) in fields accompanied by my green rubber-boots-of-joy, without a care in the world. That’s the magic…
