Recent purchases- Skirt obsession!

So you know when you notice something is missing from your wardrobe (in my case it was a wide variety of mini skirts) and you go through one of those phases where it's the only thing you buy until you feel you have adequately resolved the problem. Now I'm feeling pretty pleased as punch with my new skirt collection.

Back in the world of blogging!

I've had an unintentional hiatus from the blogging world for the reason of life, it just gets in the way sometimes. I'm so admiring of you ladies who can do it all, I just don't know how you do! A full time job, my own house to look after, two bunnies, a hammy and a guinea pig, and the responsibility of running honey, rose and Amber my small online jewellery business. All this and trying to have a social life as well just makes it seem like there aren't enough hours in the day. I'm sure a lot of you feel the same. However I just miss blogging so much and it's a community I love being a part of so I'm going to commit to one post a week at the very least and I'll go from there. 

Also in the time that I've been away I feel that my style has gone through a bit of a metamorphosis as well as brand new brunette locks! So it seems an apt time to start documenting different looks again as I have so much fun getting dressed up on a daily basis and I'm lucky it's something my job allows me to do.

These pictures were shot by my lovely friend Yui, and I think she did a pretty good job. Thanks Yui! <3 

Id love to hear what you guys think about the demands of blogging and the outfit etc so please comment below and I will reply to everyone.

Pink makes the boys wink.

I've had this skirt for a while now and this is the first time I've worn it. I guess pastel pink PVC isn't something you wear everyday and to be honest I've been a little bit self conscious thinking that people will stare at me for wearing it. But I did manage to step outside to have these photos taken in it. It's safe to say its not the most comfortable thing to wear and it quite difficult to walk in haha! However I do love the beautiful colour and how different it is! I know since it had sold out and loads of people are now trying to get there hands on one. I guess the perks of working for Topshop are I do get to get the good stuff first!

Queenies Cupcakery

So earlier in the week me and the Mr finally visited Queenies Cupcake Shop after wanting to go for so long and somehow always ending up going when it was closed! But it's safe to say it was more than worth the wait. The shop itself is beautifully decorated in the perfect vintage tearoom style with loads of crockery and cake stands and general cute stuff! The cakes were superb, I had a pavlova cupcake with fresh berries and meringue, it was heavenly, the frosting was so so good! And I had a pot of earl grey tea to go with it which is the perfect tea for any cake eating in my opinion. 

Ironbridge is an absolutely lovely place and just generally great to visit anyway with the added advantage of having Queenies there as well so I thoroughly recommend it it you're looking for a day out!

Lovely Little Teacups!

This is my first post in a little while. I really don't know how you guys do it, I admire you so much. I find it hard to juggle a full time job, a small jewellery business and a blog sooo I've decided just to throw another thing into the mix haha! I've been creating these little designs of my own on vintage crockery for about a year or so now and only now has it occurred to me that somebody else might actually like these, so I've opened up a separate Etsy shop specifically for this called Lovely Little Teacups
Please have a look and let me know what you think!
Here's a sneaky little peak of some of the bits and pieces i've created for the shop.
