Delightful Finds and Me

The Bee Gees

May. 21st | Posted by 0 comments

I am a bit of a Bee Gees fan so was very sad to hear the news that Robin Gibb died yesterday after a long fight with cancer – he was only 62!

I thought I would share one of my favourite Bee Gees songs to celebrate how fabulous they are! This was quite tricky as they have so many amazing tracks, but this one definitely sticks out for me – You Win Again.

What do you think – do you like this one? Which one would you have chosen – what is your favourite Bee Gees song?

Have a good afternoon and I shall be back soon :) xx

 


Too Cute

May. 21st | Posted by 0 comments

Morning all – how was your weekend? Did you get up to anything exciting? Mine was good – busy, but good. Apart from more miserable weather of course! Although we are promised a warm and sunny week, so not quite so bad.

Here is your Monday morning dose of cuteness to get us through until lunch.

OMG – what a cute little bunny! Bunnies like any enclosed hideaway spaces like this – must be like a burrow for them!

Have a good morning and I shall be back soon :) xx

Friday Eye Candy

May. 18th | Posted by 0 comments

Friday at last! I have had such a busy week, with lots of wedding planning work as well as things for the blog. I went to a press day (blogging soon) as well as popping into Harrods last night for a private event in their Penthouse – for a viewing of the Jubilee Crowns and Gowns. The champagne was flowing and it was a great night – more on the blog soon.

This Eye Candy feature (now a blog category) is a collection of delightful photos for us all to swoon over – floral, Friday night, random, delightful and any others I think of along the way!

Today I am going with Friday Eye Candy as I am so excited about it being the weekend!

DIY Hermes Jige Clutch

May. 16th | Posted by 0 comments

So who is not a Hermes fan?! Not many I am sure! I came across these free printable Jige clutches from Hermes and knew I must share them with you.

There are 6 designs for you to download, print and put together. You can see all 6 designs and download them from the Hermes Facebook page.

Ok so these may not be super practical as an actual clutch, but great to use as an envelope for an invite, card or special letter perhaps? You could also use them for small gifts?

Oh The Lovely Things

Hehe – I love this elephant one! You can download this design by clicking here.

There is also this plain one so you can design your own colours, decoration and embellishments. Download here.

This bird and tree design is also pretty and can be downloaded here.

What do you think – aren’t they cute? Which is your favourite? I love the elephant and the bird ones.

To choose and print your own visit the Hermes Facebook page.

Have a lovely afternoon and I shall be back soon :) xx

Delightful Find – Love Clothing

May. 15th | Posted by 0 comments

Afternoon all. I wanted to share a delightful find with you this afternoon – fashion website Love Clothing who sell clothes, shoes and accessories. I thought I would share a few of my favourites from their new stuff just in.

How cool is this top with the leopard print collar?! I want this and may have to have it at only £21 – bargain! Did you see my Fashion & Animal Print post?

Vero Moda Pearly Leo Top – £21

I really like this stripy dress – one of those things you could get a lot of wear out of by dressing it up or down with accessories and shoes. Did you see my Fashion & Stripes post?

Vila Fleur Printed Dress – £27

We are all into our skinny jeans at the moment and I think these candy stripe ones are fab! They have them in various colours too as well as plain colours.

Glam Skinny Jeans – £25

I love this pretty lacy top – I have lots of cami tops like this that are perfect for wearing with and under lots of different things. This one would be great on its own too.

Vila Smokla Top – £13

Isn’t it all so pretty? Such good prices too – time for a bit of online shopping I think!

Pop over to the Love Clothing website to check out everything else.

Have a lovely evening and I shall be back soon :) xx

Great British Fashion Stamp Collection

May. 14th | Posted by 0 comments

Afternoon all. Stamps are not something I usually talk about on the blog but please bare with me, as these are fashion based and rather cool (I think so anyway!).

Great British Fashion is the new stamp collection, of 10, from the Royal Mail. It is dedicated to British iconic fashion designers since the 1940′s and will be released tomorrow – 15 May 2012.

I do not collect stamps but I may actually buy these as they are fashion related and not something that comes along every day! I think I will keep them though, rather than using them to post letters! I would be very happy if someone posted a letter to me with an Alexander McQueen stamp on it!

World Stamp News

This Alexander McQueen stamp is amazing and the feathery outfit is from his 2009 Horn Of Plenty collection.

This is the Vivienne Westwood stamp and shows her 1993 Harlequin dress which Naomi Campbell famously fell over in whilst strutting down the catwalk!

One for the boys now with the Paul Smith stamp! I did not know that Paul Smith opened his first shop in 1970! Did you?

A 1960′s look for the Ossie Clark stamp – an outfit with a Celia Birtwell print on it. Ossie Clark was huge in the 1960′s and still influences designers today.

What do you think? Just another stamp, or a bit more special? Will you buy them? You can buy them individually as well which is quite cool – I know if I was Paul Smith or at Alexander McQueen I would be bulk buying!

Although not a stamp collector now, I must confess that I was an avid member of the Stamp Bug Club when I was about 7 for a few weeks! ;)

Have a lovely afternoon and I shall be back soon :) xx
