Ring that magazine

So just a quick happy little post to show off my quirky ring John picked up for me from Topshop. It's a triple ring with little hearts on it and being gold it adds that little bit of bling on my fingers. Although I have already been stopped twice and asked if it's a knuckle duster - which ofcourse it is not. Also the photoshoot I shot for buzz magazine is now out in various shops and bars in Cardiff so I was really happy when my copy came through the door - it's always such a great feeling to have work published :) Ohh my photography website is www.lcsphotographic.com...

Fearnes Very Fashion

So this weeks style icon is Fearne Cotton, I have to admit in the beginning I didn't quite get what all the hype was about but she has really grown on me and has the staying power a lot of presenters and tv personalities lack in the UK. I also love her rocky edge and how she embraces and promotes the British Music scene and diversity is a good word to describe Ferne Cotton as she always seems to be working on a new products and expanding her interests and now has her own fashion line at Very.co.uk A Fearne Cotton Original design from Very A vintage Print dress designed by Fearne Fearne Dipped Hem Chiffon dress  Being a young mother but still wanting to be stylish online shops like can be very handy as most stock loads of different brands and I thought I would try something new as oppose to Asos and Urban Outfitters and I have to say I am very pleasantly surprised at they summer dresses by Very range which consists of floral dresses and vintage inspired pieces, ......

Birthdays and are the Best days.

So it was Johns birthday the other day - and how I do love birthdays as it's the perfect excuse to go shopping and treat the one you love (as well as yourself). I know alot of people say it's hard for them to find there other half a present but for me it's never an issue, John is an avid collector of clothes and shoes, books and films and he is constantly telling me things he would love to own, I simply lock those ideas away for those special times of the year such as Christmas and Birthdays. So as I mentioned Mojo King before, the mod shop in Cardiff - and I love supporting independent shops especially in such a fragile economical climate, I decided to get him a Fred Perry summer shirt from there. John in a Fred Perry summer shirt  Keeping on the Welsh theme he also got as pair of Meshpadrilles by Vera Shoes - Vera shoes where started by Welshman Neil Morris (former owner of Droogi). They are so well made and light and great for summer and if they made women's I......

Mia Farrow Style Icon and Summer Fun

Every now and then I just get the urge to cut my hair short - I have been growing it for a while but with summer here I just felt like I needed a change so when back to the short look. So my style icon for this week and my inspiration behind my short hair is Mia Farrow. She just seemed so natural and happy and that she was genuinely having fun.  So I am really happy with how my new haircut turned out - it makes me feel lighter and more summery. Since we don't have much of a summer here in the UK we try and make use of any good weather that comes our way to eat al fresco. I am a lover of Salads and John is a lover of BBQ and this combination goes together ohh so well.

Food, fashion and photos

 So on the weekend we had a bit of a Roath discovery - since we are thinking of moving to the area we thought we would have a walk around and ofcourse go to one of my favourite places Milgi Art Bar (a place I never get board of). But first off all we stopped of The Gate Arts Centre which houses the Mad Hatter Cafe - a place I have been past so many times  but have never gone in. Well first off all it's in a beautiful church and it has a really cool art gallery and the food was amazing plus the really welcoming staff means I will be back for sure. John opted for the non veggie Pancakes with bacon - I was told it was good.  After food we took a walk down Wellfield Rd which is fulled of unusual shops and you never know what you are going to stumble upon. John had been telling me about Mojo King for a while and was not disappointed when we went into this Mod Inspired Shop that stocks some really great brands like Fred Perry and Ben Sherman and P.S I wa......

Sun is for wearing shades

I love summer because shades actually serve their real purpose - although I do believe it's a good time to where good shades anytime of the year. I am currently in love with my cheap Urban Outfitter round shades. I am also currently in love with Ksubi sunglasses which I only just came across after paging through Grazia magazine - apparently it's an Australian higher end company...anyway I like :) ...
