Hello

I am back after a long absence but I thought I would celebrate my return with a redesign of my blog and an image of Lionel Richie which I found funny...

Pinterest

My posts are becoming quite few and far between these days. I could blame it on work but I think its the fact I've joined Pinterest and I am quite addicted!

Cherry Lips

Along with the vintage suitcase in the last post, this was another gift from my Nana, as a cheer me up present. These are my favourite sweets on earth, but no one else seems to agree with me... well no one who lives with me. Often referred to as tasting like soap or perfume, no else can understand my cherry lip addiction. However this does mean I don't have to share them.

Lots of Love

P.S. This jar was full last week... Is there a cherry lip addiction clinic somewhere as I may need to check myself in.

A Week In September

1. Russian Dolls from Budapest, the smallest one is a ridiculously cute size. 2. Some inventive recycling with my old wellies. 3. DKNY handbag from Dubai, this is currently my favourite bag in my closet... I try not to play favourites with my bag but I can't help it with this baby. 4. Body Shop Satsuma Body Wash, I cannot get enough of this, it smells amazing. 5. Lovely vintage suitcase from my Nana, which also signifies me packing my bags, leaving my job and coming home woop!

Downton Abbey

I am a little late in joining the Downton Abbey fan club, but since I am living away from home during the week this has freed up a lot of my time, so I've been looking for new TV shows to watch. After getting into Gavin and Stacey about three years late, I am now addicted to Downton Abbey. So after a long days work in the evenings I am catching up on the last two series.

I love the elaborate house, costumes and story lines. 

 I especially like the pinned up hairstyles. I am wondering whether I can: A. pull off the elaborate hairstyles and B. actually manage to do some that fancy with my hair...

Vintage Treasures

Last weekend I took a trip to a vintage pop up shop and discovered some cute retro bargains. 

Lady-like purse and equestrian silk scarf

Sweet vintage children's print

Blue retro suitcase which I have covered with a yellow polka dot print

I love the pillar box red silk lining which contrasts against the blue

Ruby Slippers

Whenever I have a bad day or need a bit of cheering up my simple home remedy is Judy Garland films. I think it is a mix of the bright candy colours, clothes, Judy Garland's voice and the innocence.

I mean who wouldn't feel better after a good family singsong round the piano?!

So if you feel like joining me I recommend watching any of these three:

I could really do with a pair of these!

A Week In August

1. My leaving present from my old work, a black and white bee print. 2. 'Lets eat ice cream' engraved spoon. 3. Little striped bunny who now lives on my jewellery shelf. 4. Anthropologie flower, one of my favourite hair accessories. 5. New lunch bag and snack boxes to make my working day a little brighter.

Graduation

Finally got around to getting my graduation photos off my camera so I thought I'd share a couple with you.

Me awkwardly working the over sized graduation robe. For my graduation photos we wanted a nice backdrop, without it being a boring studio so we went to the winter gardens in the Duthie park in Aberdeen. 

The parents, the grandparents, the boyfriend and me toasting with a glass of Bolly. Five minutes after this photo was taken we were told off for drinking alcohol in a public place....

My third attempt at throwing my cap with my Dad being able to take a photo in time. 

A better photo of my Reiss Anara dress. I loved it, shame it was hidden by the robe most of the day. I'll just have to find another excuse to wear it again!

Decoration details from the party at my house with family and friends

My Mum surprised with me with a lovely ice cream cake with all three of my favourite flavors: clotted cream, chocolate and vanilla flake. Yum!

Overall it was such a fun day, perfect for celebrating the end of Uni. I will definitely miss Uni and being a student... what a geek.

Watching a football game in the park with the boyfriend.

He is wearing his faithful two tone grey Vans and I have on my simple red ballet pumps.
