Outfit of the Day – Orange County Girl
As you’re aware, I’m not an Orange County girl, in fact I usually don’t like orange, but I do like terracotta or burnt orange. I’m picky like that! But anyway, I was just looking for some song lyrics with orange in when I came across this Gwen Stafani one and I just HAD to listen to her on Spotify. I love Gwen, and I love No Doubt. And so it was decided that this post would be called as such. Glamorous Lace Skater Dress (ancient), Thrifted Black 3/4 Length Sleeve Top £7.99, H&M Woodland Copse Floral Crown in Rust £15, Crown and Glory Belt (from another dress), Primark Black Tights…

February Reads
I’m quite impressed with how well I’m keeping up with this whole reading thing. Another four books read this year, that’s seven now and I’m almost finished The Great Gatsby so that’ll be eight, only two away from how many books I read in 2013. No wonder I made this unofficial resolutions to read more for 2014! The only problem is that now I feel the need to buy more books. My basket on Amazon is filled with bargain books from the marketplace (anyone else love that for cheap DVDs and books or is it just me?) My to read shelf is pretty full but every time I finish one…

Outfit of the Day – Lucky Denver Mint
Wow, it’s really been ages since I did an outfit post, so much for my resolution to do them weekly! I put it down to the bad weather, having the flu and Little Miss being under the weather. But I’m back today with one. I wanted to share the beautiful French Connection dress I received that I plan to wear out to dinner when the girls come visit me the week before my birthday. The sun was out this morning when I took these photos and it made me feel so happy, like perhaps this dreadful weather wasn’t going to last forever and eventually we’ll have Spring. This dress really…

January Reads
As I’ve resolved to read more books this year I thought i’d blog about what I read monthly rather than doing a review of each. I always struggle with book reviews because I don’t like giving too much away. I’m more of a “read it!” or “don’t read it!” kind of person. This way I can simply write a few sentences about what I think about each book then tell you all whether I recommend it or not. I can also keep track on my blog what I’ve read as well as on Goodreads. I managed three books this month and I’m half way through my forth. I would have…
