Obligatory Halloween post

We're in - to our new house that is. Feel very overwhelmed by everything but having lived out of home for three years before I know that the feeling goes away soon enough which is reassuring. Pics to follow!

On Saturday night I went to a friend's Halloween/house warming party and it was a blast. Also great because for the first time in a long time I didn't have to drive/leave early for trains etc because they're only a five minute skip down the road! Jagerbombs all round then. 

I went as Cleopatra, very impressed with the wig I ordered on eBay. It was really good for a synthetic wig and so reasonably priced - I want to buy a load of different ones and change my hair every time I go out! My boyfriend always goes to town on fancy dress and this year was no exception - he went as Louis de Pointe de Lac from Interview With The Vampire. He looked rather scary but amazing!!

It was great that everyone at the party had made a great effort to dress up! There was the Hulk, Leela and Fry, Elliot from ET, the Mad Hatter - loads!

On the move

I.am.so.tired. For some reason I never manage to go to bed before 12, and that combined with working a late night event last week has seriously caught up with me. I feel (and look!) like SHIT! Which means I have been very lazy on the packing front for moving on Friday, but I made a feeble attempt this evening by starting with the books and DVDs. I can't face tackling the clothes yet...

Had a very fun trip to Ikea on Saturday morning to get some of the necessary furniture and bedding bits but I'm also on the prowl for some quirky old antique things to decorate with. We're looking at going to a car boot on Sunday to nose around for some bits n pieces. I've been hunting online but I still haven't found an old wooden chest :(.

Often look to the Vintage Vixen for inspiration, if you haven't seen her blog already check it out, she finds the most incredible bargains at jumble sales and car boots in the UK and I LOVE her house. Read her blog HERE.



Looking forward to finally moving, catching up on sleep and having cosy nights in with the girls (and lots of raucous pre-drinking before nights out dancing!).

Little Wing in HUF Magazine

I answered this so long ago I almost forgot about it - and it also seems a bit old now, old products, old photos! But here's the Little Wing article in HUF creative magazine's October issue.

It's quite funny in a way, as really LW is a very slow work in progress but they're referred to it as the 'new must have jewellery' - thanks for bigging us up HUF :)!

Kitchens and Kurt

First up... a sneak peek at our new kitchen! Can't wait to start moving in next week. My skull salt and pepper shakers arrived today, they can take pride of place on our round wooden dining table. A teapot with a Union Jack knitted cover will also be gracing the kitchen tops!


Secondly, very old now but J'ADORE the AW Kurt Geiger campain images with the gorgeous Anja Rubik. Particularly the dancy sleeves hanging out of the black jacket, mm mm.





Like freaks of a feather we rock together


Forgot about this ancient RHCP song. 
Too right!
 Have been feeling very lucky and grateful recently to have such lovely friends, good times <3

One Night Only




My love for Patti&Keith just grew even more, if that's possible.

Sirius XM 'Studio 54 One Night Only' party. Love the story of how they met at the real S54 back in the day, Keith running away from Britt Ekland, seeing Patti on the dancefloor and just being blown away.... Sighhhhh <3

(Keef's looking a bit porky!)

Salt and Pepper


First house purchase, aghhh! Good old eBay.
