We Are The Birdcage - Up & Leave (Official Music Video)

Playing Cat & Mouse

Hi lovelies!

HAPPY SATURDAY!!! :)

I am sure you feel the same as I do about Saturdays, I love them.

I am so busy with work in the week I like to spend Saturday morning in bed, but that sometimes can make me lazy.



So today I met my lovely friend Catherine for a cuppa & a natter, I couldn't decide what to wear mostly because I was feeling lazy from my morning lie in. I didn't feel like wearing a dress so I threw on this jumper, my black pencil and my ASOS shoes.

I then thought it would be cute to wear the two rings my sister Spec brought me for Christmas. The small one is a mouse wrapped around my little finger... I think you can just about see it & the other is the cat ears don't you think they are cute??

Not sure if you noticed but I have two rings on my wedding finger, No I'm not married yet. My engagement ring has become too big so I have to add another on top until I get it re-sized.


Anyway that's me for today, have a great evening, I am going to relax with my Spec & Mr Rob.

Ciao for now

Obsessed with Rust.

Ello Lovelies,
I am sitting here watching WWE Raw with Mr Rob, yes I know it's staged but I love it!!!!
It's my vice, some girls have the only way is Essex, some have Easterners and I have Wrestling!

So on a completely separate note, here is my outfit from yesterday (sorry about the front door in the pictures it was too dark for pictures by the time I got home) and as the title says I am totally obsessed with Rust clothing!!! I am so glad it is popular at the moment because I can stock up :)


I normally mix in vintage items or second hand treasures to my outfits but this is all high street, the cardigan is from Tesco, the skirt is from Primark & the bodysuit underneath is Warehouse.


I paired it with my La Redoute boots and my hair style of the moment. Everyone always comments on my hair when I wear it like this but to be honest and this is our little secret but I normally do my hair like this because it needs a wash or as I found on Sunday used a new conditioner that my hair look like it needed another wash.

It is actually quite easy to do, would anyone like me to post a how to guide?

Well let me know!
Have a great week and I'll be back soon!!!

Ciao for now.

Super Duper Sunday!!!

Hello People,
How are we??
I had a super fabulous day today with the very lovely Amy of Vintage Reflection.


We met in Covent Garden, went for a yummy pub lunch; Pie, Mash & Liqueur... minus the Liqueur :)

Amy used her super swish camera to take some outfit pictures for me and they came out so well, she even kindly edited them for me!!
I wore my vintage checked dress my fabulous Mum & Dad got me for Christmas :)
I paired it with one of my favorite Mustard cardigans, some super snugly tights and my new ASOS shoes.


I took my Diana Mini with me, although I didn't use it in the end, I think it looks super cool in the pictures Amy took. She even used a picture of me for her project 52, I feel very honored! :)


Amy & I must have chatted for over three hours about projects we would like to do together, more information on this will follow in a few weeks or so but for now it is super top secret. :)
I had such a lovely day, I feel so inspired by Amy, she is such a nice girl and I can't wait to get to work on the projects together.


I hope you all have had a great weekend too.

Ciao for now.

LANIE LANE: Oh Well, That's What You Get Falling In Love With A Cowboy

What I wore today for afternoon tea

Hi guys,
Yes I went afternoon tea AGAIN!!!!
My lovely friend Amelie was so kind to invite me to afternoon tea that she got as a birthday present.

Don't think she is just beautiful!!

I wore my new dress, I know I know I didn't need anymore dresses but I loved her as soon as I saw her!!!
I love the mix of blue & green. I paired it my brogues from Clarks and some comfy navy tights! Oh & my bag of the moment Mr Foxy :)


I am also loving my high bun with a bow at the moment, Amelie said I reminded her of Zooey Deschanel, which I think is a lovely compliment :)

Anyway, that was what I wore.
I hope you had a great weekend & your week is even better.
Ciao for now.

My 2012 Resolutions

Hello Lovelies,
So it is finally 2012, this is a big year for me :)
Not Only do I turn 30 but I also get married!!! I can't believe it!!!

Every year I try to set a couple of new years resolutions & I do my best to stick to them but I can't say I always do. I did stick to my no new clothes for a year until July which I think was quite good for me as I love buying new clothes!!

I think that it is good to make some as it gives me goals to work towards, this year my resolutions will be:

Look after myself more both physically & mentally
This includes maintaining a healthy diet, taking more time to relax and to walk more. I feel reaching 30 I feel that I haven't so I will do my best to make sure I do.

Be more organised
I have started as i mean to go on by buying all the Birthday & Christmas cards for 2012. Also with the wedding approaching this is even more fundamental. I have made a list of all the things that need to be done for it and all the things I want to make for the day.

Open an online shop
I am not sure if I will do this but I hope by September I will have it up & running. I plan to sell all my hand made creations. It is still in the planning stage but this will hopefully include some items of clothing :)

So what are your resolutions? I would love to hear them :)

Ciao for now
