Ah, the Great British Summer. *looks outside* So obviously I’ve been looking at new raincoats and umbrellas for the past few months. This summer has been grey, grey, wet, grey with occational blasts of sun. I’ve had the same mac…
Well, you know how the rest of the saying goes. But its true, they don’t. Unfortunately I need my glasses to see, and have had my current pair for about 2 years now. After seeing Jen’s post about London Retro‘s…
I’ve been meaning to post these for a while, but today just seemed right. These beautiful illustrations of this wonderful city by Sarah Matthews and can be bought from I Love Crafty‘s shop in Clifton Village. I don’t normally comment…

With all the nice weather (*looks out of window at ominous grey cloud, sighs*) we’ve had lately, I’ve been looking at Habitat’s* range of outdoor things and of course made a long wish list of things I’d need to have…
Modcloth sent out a newsletter a few weeks ago relating to Earth Day to promote their more ethically sourced and eco-friendly items, and at the bottom was a link to a brand called Bibico. I loved the few items that…
