I expect most people’s buying habits have changed somewhat this year.

Ok, so in all honesty I’m not sure my husband would agree to the above title as let’s face it; the world has gone to crap, so it’s ok to be emotional once in a while.

They're the kind of colours that come around every other year or so, so like me you may already have some in your wardrobe. It's definitely worth unearthing some goodies if … Continue reading Candy Colours & Sorbet Shades
Not long now until we're off on a family holiday to Mallorca.I love this Balearic Island. This time we'll be staying in a finca at the foot of the Tramuntana Mountains, so quite different to our last stays in bustling, stylish Palma.
