All I want for Christmas

Hope your all feeling festive and you've got most of your Christmas shopping done. I'm almost finished and very excited about the festive season this year. Think it helps having an excited two year old running round singing 'Christmas pudding, Christmas pudding, nice and hot, nice and hot' (never heard this song prior to three weeks ago) and 'Jingle bells' at the top of his voice!!! Arh it is cute honestly.

Anyway back to some girly wish list which may or may not come true, well a girl can dream can't she.....

White converse Chuk Taylor boots, they look great with skinny jeans or leggins

Abigail Ahern Wistera steam, yes a little pricey but defo worth it and in one of her white jug vases too

Abigail Ahern retail day course, I so want to set up my own business one day with a very good friend of mine but we need more information, knowledge and inspiration. I think this would help....

Biker boots from Dune (sorry mum I know you have these boots and sorry for copying you, but think of it as falttery) and they will go very well with my Mulberry handbag that was a 30th birthday pressie and still love love love!

And finally the most important thing I would like in my life is to find the perfect home of our own- this will hopefully come true in 2013....although people who know us will know that I'm not going to hold my breath!

Night all and have a fabulous xmas if I don't post again before the big man visits us in 9 sleeps time

Let it snow

Christmasy feel to this blog, inspired by some images I found on Pinterest. Mainly cool ideas for Christmas decorations.

Simple yet so effective-love all of these and wish I could do them all.......

Winter warmers

Hey just a brief post this evening with some lovely winter styles I'm loving at the moment:

Love the all black, biker jacket with the blonde hair

Great jewellery with a simple black t-shirt

 Love her fringe, need my hair to grow this long and then get the monochrome outfit.

 Raspberry knit with belt and cool over the knee boots

And this is my favourite out of the lot- casual cool weekend look but still ultra stylish.

Paste it

So talking about wallpapers, now I am a huge fan however I only have wallpaper in our bedroom due to it being rented, so same old story is when we get our own place I will defo. be getting me some funky wallpapers......

 Love the (above) white faux timber panel paper which adds elegance. Try Andrew Martin or similar.

The scrap wood timber paper (above) is fab too and adds colour and texture to a room. (A friend is thinking about may be putting one of these up in her hall way) try http://www.miki.uk.com/prod_list.asp?catid=140&Name=Scrapwood%20Wallpaper

 

Would be amazing to do this in a tiny cloakroom- wide monochrome stripes which is deceptive and make the room look bigger than it is, gold frames adds glamour. Try Designer Guild or Ebay!

This tin wallpaper can be bought from Rocket St George. Its fabulous and I'd have it in my house like a flash however my other half kindly bought me 4 American reclaimed tin tiles with a very similar design so I now have the real thing! Now all I have to do is work out how I'm going to display them......maybe a future post....

This is a cool retro one for a music room or boys room. 

For cool children's wallpaper and fabrics try Paperboy they do some very cool, although a little pricey but the quality is good.

Or a more economical option is a DIY of your favourite book wallpaper.....funky!

This blog is great inspiration http://www.tentlondon.co.uk/news/trompe-l’œil-deborah-bowness?utm_source=Sign-Up.to&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=265238-July%3A+Create+GB%2C+New+Exhibitors+%26+Last+Application+2012+Deadline+%28Template+2%29

Too posh to pooch

Wow so I have had over 1000 page views now which is amazing- thanks for reading!

okay so this is a bit weird and especially as I don't have any pets but thought I would defo get me some of these accessories if i did http://www.freepeople.com/fp-pet-project/?cm_mmc=broadcast-_-Q32012-_-121104_10825_petproject-_-shop&cm_lm=

Especialy like the chunky leads, although a cheaper option for this is a horse rope lead, almost exactly the same and come is so many colours.

If we were to get a pet it would have to be a beagle. They are so cute but believe they can have a bit of handful........

Happy furry love

Apologies for the lack of posts.

I am loving faux fur coats at the moment and got myself one (see below)

Its sooooo warm and was amazing on Bonfire night, stood in the freezing cold for three hours! Although there was quite allot of rain too so kinda ended up looking like a wet dog......but still very toasty!

One of these babies will glam up any outfit and if you choose the right one add a vintage touch. I feel amazing in mine even if I just have skinny black jeans and convers on!

Happy furry love
