Party time, excellent

As promised, a few happy snaps from my birthday celebration over the weekend. Despite the recent heatwave, it was a cold, wintery and windy night, but still great fun!

Apologies for the lack of outfit shots - I’m wearing a vintage black blazer and vintage dress (worn as a mini-skirt) from my recent ‘Fields of Gold’ post. I’m also wearing the most fabulous DIY shoes that I can’t wait to share with you in a separate post.

Finally, don’t forget that this is the last week to enter my fashion giveaway to win a custom made dress. Increase your chances of winning, by blogging, twittering or facebooking the competition. Entries close this Friday.

Good luck!

Birthday weekend

And so it's my birthday and the middle of an unseasonably HOT November. In-fact a record breaking heatwave of more than a week at temperatures over 39 degrees Celsius!

Over the weekend my fiancé and I kicked off by celebrating in a gorgeous vineyard with wine, cheese and a friendly game of croquet. The outfit - Children of the Sun sundress, fedora and paisley canvas shoes - nothing particularly experimental, but in this weather, less is definitely more!

I also enjoyed a day of shopping and a fabulous Moroccan family feast, with every evening of this week spent cooling off at the beach.

I was very spoilt by the family, receiving lovely gifts of clothes, jewellery and perfume. I look forward to celebrating with friends this weekend.

Don't forget you have until the end of November to enter my giveaway for your chance to win a custom made dress or skirt - enter here.

Tips to Choose Jeans for Curvy Women

Purchasing jeans for curvy women is an excellent choice but getting a quality pair can often times cost a good deal of money. However, the differences between designer brands compared to generic brands are significant in terms of comfort and how well they make you look. The following are tips to helping you find a quality pair of jeans at discount prices and what factors to consider.

Prior to getting started, it's important that you first know what your size is as you probably don't want a pair that is too big or too small. You can simply go to your local department store to have someone take measurements of your waist so you can get a better fitting pair of jeans. Once you know your size, you should then try on as many pairs as you can from different brands and styles.

Paying full retail these days can really be quiet expensive but shopping at online retail stores or even auction sites will help to save you money. This is the main reason why getting your size right and knowing what brand you want is so important. Just remember that you are not obligated at all to purchase from a department store as you can save by shopping online.

The benefit of shopping at online retail stores is that you can easily able to compare prices while also reading reviews of what others have said. This lets you know exactly what you can expect and whether you are getting a good deal of jeans for curvy women. You can also easily take advantage of clearance sales at local department stores where you can be able to negotiate for lower prices.

Fields of gold

Earlier in the week I picked up the most gorgeous vintage dress – I fell in love with the colour and lace detail.

I was also lucky enough to receive the most fabulous early birthday present from my darling fiancé – a brand new Nikon D5000 SLR camera.

This is my first SLR and I couldn’t wait to start experimenting. Over the weekend we headed out to take these shots.







I’ve come up with a few more ways to wear pieces of the dress, which I will feature in a separate post.

And don't forget to enter my giveaway. Readers have the chance to win a custom made dress or skirt throughout the entire month of November - enter here.
