I've had my Instax camera for a few years, but recently I've fallen head over heels in love with it again! From Omaha to LA and from Vegas to New York, my trusty Instax has traveled with me to document my friends and frolics along the way.Read more...

After the whirlwind of the past fortnight, this week has been a bit of a... OK not 'downer' as such... but just, you know, a very normal one. Getting back from a long trip away invariably means that you have a mountain of work to climb when you return (and emails ahhh so many emails!) so in all honestly I haven't done much except playing hostage to my computer and make grilled cheese sandwiches for tea (domestic goddess? oh yes!)Read more...

After the aceness of last week I wasn't sure my New York adventure could get any better...oh how wrong I was! On Monday we waved goodbye to The Lasertron's (boohoo) and Gala & I then basically spent the whole week distracting each other. I'd love to move here one day, but if I did I fear neither of us would ever get any work done! We had too much fun doing things like this...Read more...

The last 3 days have been a whirlwind of excitement and adventure as Gareth & I have meandered around New York City with our friends The Darlings and The Lasertrons...wow our surname is so boring! We've been a right motley crue of chaos with late night pizza dates, neon pedicures, being papped in Tompkins square, flower crowns, florescent skirt purchases, passing out on sofas (yeah...that was me) and shopping til we dropped (sorry Gareth!)Read more...

This week Gareth & I trotted off to Muddifords Court in Devon to host a School of Rock blogging workshop. As always I was super nervous on the drive down, but once we arrived and met Becky, Nicky & Pip my mind was put at ease. They were all so utterly lovely and made us feel extremely welcome! My four hour presentation went super quickly and, if I do say so myself, pretty swimmingly. There were so many questions which always makes me happy, and the attendees were all smiling and nodding along with what I was saying which is always a good sign I reckon!Read more...

After falling head over heels for her 2011 collection, I wasn't sure my love for Russian fashion designer Ulyana Sergeenko could grow any more. However I stand well and truly corrected as her 2012 designs have floored me.Read more...

Well what else could I be loving this Sunday but Easter!? I don't like chocolate at all (I know, I'm a freak) but I do love spending the day with my loved ones and taking some much needed time off work. I couldn't leave you without some Easter inspo pretty though could I!? Today I wanted to share something a little different, Melanie & Michael's sweet Easter inspired shoot that was sent over by wedding photographers Jenn & Derrek of Jennifer Sullivan Photography. If this doesn't get you in the Easter egg munching, baby bunny petting spirit I don't know what will. I hope you all have a fabulous day whatever you're up to.Read more...

When shooting in Vegas, make up artist LaVey asked what I'd like on my lips, "bright pink please" was my reply (obviously!) "Well I've got something that will blow your socks off," she replied, "this stuff won't budge all day." And she wasn't kidding. When we wrapped shooting at 5.30pm the lip stain still looked exactly as it did when she applied it that morning. I'd eaten, drunk, talked, giggled...all in the desert heat, and this stuff was still there! Nope, I wouldn't have believed it myself if it wasn't me wearing it! Look at these photos if you're still not convinced...Read more...

Last Wednesday I was lucky enough to be invited to a party hosted by wedding planners Temple Gregory at The Savoy, London. Holy posh venue batman! I rocked up with Debs & Lucy in my Charlotte Balbier finest (officially my favourite dress, like, ever) my $5 Hot Topic Barbie necklace from Hot Topic and my bargain $15 (in the sale) Urban Outfitters sparkly shoe boots.Read more...

This is how stupid my life is right now. Can someone please tell me how I got here and what planet I'm living on? Last week I hung out at The Dorchester...at a party hosted by wedding planner Mark Niemierko...for Darcy Miller, editor of Martha Stewart magazine...Oh and there were male models dressed as soldiers...not to mention the fact that I got to meet/chat to/be in the same room as to David Fielden, Charlotte Castigliano, Stephanie Allin, Sassi Holdford, Ritva Westenius, Suzanne Neville, Stewart Parvin, Phillipa Lepley, Elizabeth Emanuel, Bruce Oldfield and Johanna Heir. Name dropping? Moi? In fact I have nothing else coherent to say about it really except...HOW THE EFF DID I GET INVITED?!Read more...

If you've been reading the blog for a while, you will probably have heard all about Upper Street Shoes before. Last summer, they asked me if I wanted to design my very own pair of shoes using their online software and...well I wasn't going to say no to that was I? You can see the first pair I designed here. However when I received an email from the girls recently to let me know that they were launching a ballet flats range, I just about jumped out of my chair with glee! I do love the look of sky-high platforms, epic wedges and cute kitten heels, but oh how I suck at balancing and walking in them...I'm a little clumsy to say the least. Anyway, this was like music to my ears and when they asked if I'd again, like to design a pair myself, well I just about wet myself with excitement.Read more...

You know youre getting old when you ask for carpet for christmas. However I think I can safely secure my Rock n Roll credentials for another 365 days if I have this baby with me. I was walking down Regent Street this week and BOOM! I was shot with handbag lust of epic proportions when I saw these lovelies glissening in the window of the Furla flagship.Read more...

All these weddings will be hitting the blog over the coming weeks, but just for you dear reader, here's a little insight into how pretty my inbox is looking right now.Read more...
