Deadly Nightshade in Your Cup of Tea
I'm on a day trip {shopping + more!} today so I just want to share these beautiful photos with you before I go off for some lovely food, enjoy dears! xxWednesday, April 29, 2009
Modern with an Edge
I love this modern home, it's clean, fresh, modern but not boring. Touches of colour here and there gives life to these white rooms, while the owner's fun collection of prints and art addes an edge, a personality.What makes it even better is that it wouldn't cost a fortune to creat the look, it is the result of some Ikea furniture mixed along with flea market finds, topped with some lovely prints from say Etsy, and C'est fait!

This and That
{via Oh Joy!}
This is going to be a tag & awards post, but I promise to keep you entertained with some pretty picutes ;) Thanks for the lovely Sarah for this tag, ok here goes:
What’s your current obsession?
The new china collection by Studio Violet - I only saw it yesterday!!
What’s your weirdest obsession?
Seagulls - a family of seagulls live on our roof and I've seen them at least once everyday since we moved in, like 18 months ago, I'll really miss them when I move
What are you wearing today?
A oversized floral tee with DIY pins added to reshape it, skinny jeans & equestrian style boots - it was raining like crazy this morning
What would you like to learn to do?
Take good photos! Think I need a DSLR as my diginal camera is just not doing the job, I would also like to finally read those two photography books I bought last summer!
What’s for dinner today?
Maybe a takeaway, I'm thinking lamb madras curry... just wondering is curry popular elsewhere?
What’s the last thing you bought?
How I love internet shopping & the sale, hoping to get these tomorrow! :D
{Ring - Outnet.com, Boots - Fly London
What’s your most challenging goal right now?
I really want to open an online clothing store, I've seen these really pretty floral dresses & cute tees made by small manufacturers in Japan, Korean & China, and just don't understand why they have to be so expensive over here. A floral dress on topshop.com is rare & when they do have one it's at least £50, it's not like the quality is so much better.
So a busy summer for me researching and trying to figure out about international shipping + tax etc. it's going to be so fun! - the clothes buying part :D
Favorite vacation place?
Either paris or venice, I can't choose!
What would you like to have in your hands right now?
This Fendi bag!
If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Relaxing while listening to the sea
What super power would you like to possess?
Magical powers or teleport, I'd be happy with either :)
What’s your favorite piece of clothing in your own closet?
My huge floral print tee with DIY pins added on of course ;) the original tee looks like this
What’s your dream job?
To be a business woman in fashion/design, say online boutique owner? :D
If you had $150 now what would you spend it on?
These pretty blue & white things from aviewto
Describe your personal style
Feminine mixed with an edgy, currently trying to perfect that edgy!
What fashion show would you want tickets to?
I've dreamed about this since I was a little girl - Chanel
Who’s closet would you want to raid?
Alexa Chung, although her clothes will never fit me, I'm like half as tall!!
the 2nd tag is from the sweet surimay:
{Original photo by Melissa Lund }
Also, I'd like to thank the lovely Little Miss Tiara for the Lemonade Award & Diana for the cutest "deer" award, I'd like to pass the love onto:
A View To ; Blog Goggles ; Lenorenevermore ; The English Muse ; The Princess Portal ; Denoto & WISH WISH WISH
Have a lovely Tuesday everyone! Since it's that time of year - Exams!! I'll be taking a break from {Beauty Tuesday} as it usually take a while to pull together a post, but I will be posting normally, think I'll be needing quite a few revision breaks :)

Country Chic
Hello everyone, hope you all had a good weekend? The paella was quite successful but we were too hungry to take photos first ;) Also watched Bring It On for some silly afternoon humour :DWhile I don't consider myself as a country girl at all (I spend most of my life living in flats! With four homes all on the 4th floor? Totally by chance!), but I do love these country chic styling, do you have a bit of a country girl in you?
Put a bit of country in your daily outfits? Work, Casual and Dressy.
