See by Chloe

We have just started selling See by Chloe shoes at work, but unfortunately we don't have these beauties -

Now I know I'm always saying I want this pair of shoes and I want that pair of shoes. But I REALLY REALLY want these. At £255 I just can't justify it - but I would wear them forever. Hmmm *starts conjuring up quick money making schemes....*

All hail Halen

This song is up there on my list of favourites and is also one of my favourite driving tracks. And it's so awesome in Twister (the film) with the orchestral intro, aghhh I love it! Enjoy. 

And on the subject of Twister, Van Halen also did the instrumental that ran over the credits which is also immense. 

Mother nature

A beautiful day by the lake to finish off a brilliant weekend. 

I was very pleased with my photography today, particularly the rose on the tree stump :).

Shop shop till you drop

This weekend was glorrrrious. After my last post I went to start some holiday shopping and came back loaded with bags which is always fun. Primark have some really nice holiday bits in at the moment, got some cute bikinis including a really loud green and pink and yellow pattern one that reminded me of the lining of bomber jackets in the 90s! 

I was also very naughty and bought these little boots from Office in the sale, they're just right for so many outfits. The guy told me I was the only person to buy boots this weekend. Well that figures..

Anyway, enough about that - check out what I managed to find in Poundland (yes I was in all the expensive stores this weekend). £1 each, score!

Developments

So it's a beautiful sunny day outside and I have been indoors all day so far working on the Little Wing website... the price to pay for small ventures! Packing up for the day soon to go shopping.

It is slowly getting there and after a good ol' natter with friends last night I feel even more inspired with lots of new ideas and plans in the works!

Here's a bit of a sneak peek at what I've been working on (check out the skulls!). The website wasn't ready to go live last week but I'm hoping that by tomorrow evening I can put it up. Fingers crossed - so much work to do and so little time!

Want want want

My best ever pair of sandals were from H&M. They have died a sad death, but now I've spotted these I know how to replace them! Hoping I can get a pair of the black this weekend - or maybe I'll be naughty and buy both...!

It's in the bag

Summer is just around the corner - and that means my summer holiday is too!! So excited to get away for some sun and fun. I haven't started my holiday shopping yet but that will commence this weekend with a bit blow out.

When summer is around the corner, that also means that my birthday is too. This year I have asked for a record player, but I also feel like a decent bag would be a good idea. I don't buy a lot of bags, well not expensive quality ones anyway and I would never spend money on expensive designer bags anyway (unle I got a mega mega mega discount!) but I do like a classic design. And I tell you what - I love a Marks and Spencer bag! And they have so many different types that I have my eye on at the moment, with my holiday in mind. Here are the ones on my lust list at the moment:

The top two are my favourites for the beach, and at £40 for the pair I think I can justify this purchase. 

And the one on the birthday wish list:

I ooo and ahhh over this bag whenever I go Marks with Mother. It is the perfect, classic chuck-it-all-in bag. I also love how supple the leather is. I would use this forever and it would also be a perfect plane journey bag. It's a little bit Celine, at a fraction of the price (although it is £99 so not something I could justfiy buying on my own - or asking for for my birthday!) But perhaps a little bit of birthday help...

Ohh, and on another note - remember me saying how indecisive I am? After a gazillion blog design changes (I love playing around with things) I am back to my good old original Marianne header. Always the way isn't it!
