Todays theme - fashion

1. One fashion trend I really regret is honestly, none, even though I do cringe a bit at my bright orange jeans I used to wear, I seriously loved those jeans when I had them and part of me wishes I had as much bravery to wear them now as I did back then.

2. The one thing that always completes any outfit is a cardigan, I have so many and they are so versatile.

3. I would describe my personal style as autumnal… I tend to wear rich colours, no pinks or pastels for me… and I love cardi’s, scarves and layers – I think autumnal is the perfect word for it :)

4. My fashion muse is um… perhaps Emma Watson, she always looks lovely – most fashion icons seem to be tiny though with no curves which I find quite hard to be inspired by… I need a curvy muse!

5. If I could own one designer piece of clothing it would be... do bags count?? I would love a bright yellow mulberry bag please.

6. I would love to raid the wardrobe of anyone... it would someone who has a lot of cardigans and mulberry bags :)

7. Today I am wearing my fave jeans, a black shirt type thing which has cute buttons (with short sleeves, its sunny!) and my little black pointy flats.

and here are some amazing links for a sunny day :)

1. Diana shared an amazing website on her blog today - you have to check it out - the quotes on the right hand side are perfect - I'm up to page 15
2. A post dedicated to cardigans, hurray!
3. I am totally in love with this woman...
4. this is one of those blogs I wish I had thought of.
5. The worlds longest exposure (via wanderlust)

6. I really want a label maker! Especially these ones...

   Happy weekend!!

Dear Friday's...

I have missed you!

I've missed the routine...

I've missed the blanks...

and I've really missed sharing links...

its been too long and I want my blog back!

{inspired as always by the lovely lauren}

1. The very best thing about the summer is beer gardens… I have no idea what this says about me but I love going to a pub and sitting with friends having a nice cool drink and chatting about everything… it isn’t even warm enough for that here yet though… boo.

2. My first crush ever was Taylor Hanson – can you believe he’s married with like 4 kids now?? He’s still dishy I must admit but he’s a bit skinny for me now – I saw Hanson a couple of years ago when we were living in London and he was sporting the skinniest jeans I’ve ever seen… ever.

3. This may sound really silly but… I was really loving the idea of decorating a house and buying things for it that I knew would stay there for a while… I might be avoiding design blog’s at the moment whilst I get over it.

4. I squeeze my toothpaste from the bottom but Thomas squeezes from the top – it annoys me.

5. My absolute favourite "comfort food" is – I have no idea anymore – before we gave up sugar it would have been chocolate or cookies but my taste buds are totally different now… I’m going to go with Chilli – I really love that at the moment…

6. A random fact about me is that I am really not that cool... I don’t think I ever have been…

7. The one piece of technology that truly makes my life better and I couldn't live without is my phone.

And here are some amazing links for you, I added a few extras as its been a while - hurray!

1. A rather amazing engagement photo shoot - I wish I had thought of it!
2. Gorgeous Diana photos of dogs - I need a dog.
3. I love Seinfeld!! (believe it or not... I'm not home...)
4. I wish what was in my bag looked like this...
5. I love art and this cake is amazing!
6. A happy yellow montage with a great quote
7. Some lovely yellow and green...
