New York, New York


So Im off to the Big Apple on Wednesday with my two lovely friends Dazzle and Bex. We are moving there for a few months on a big adventure. Hopefully we will meet lots of people, see lots of things and have a brilliant time....see you kids on the other side of the pond, yaaaaahoo x

wrap me in couture

I had a quick look at the latest couture shows in Paris and myohmy couture is DIVINE. Im liking Chanel's matching boots with dresses, particularly the sparkling blue beauts.
Check out the embroidery..I love it. Imagine having one pair of shoes for each outfit you own...that would be a lorra lorra storage.
I LOVE Givenchy's offerings...their couture collection has it all, glamour, lace, nude colour palette, gold, fringing and fur, oh and feathers. Its fabulous. I want it all, and then I want a highly glamourous party to wear it to.
Im loving the lace/embroidered panels with sheer areas. yum yum yum.

let them eat cake

So I have moved back home for a few weeks before I head off on adventures yonder and to fight back the boredom I have turned to baking. Cooking and baking is much easier at home as my lovely mum has all the essential ingredients to create a gastronomical success. My latest project was to bake a cake...easy I know but which cake to use. I flicked through all the faithful cook books, and decided on Nigella Lawsons, Malteser Choclate cake. You add horlicks to the cake mix to give it a malty taste..mmm. It was really easy to make, and just as easy to eat. I only managed to get a quick pic before it was snapped up.
