A model Tuesday...

So...today is the day my mannequin arrived so I can finally start taking pics of my gorgeous clothes...!!

I did toy with the idea of modelling them myself but due to the fact that a) I am practically a midget and b) it would make me want to keep everything I have decided against it...!!

First dress will be uploaded on to the blog tomorrow....it is an amazing 1970's dress...very Charlies Angels..which can be dressed up or down and will still look fab. I am also giving 10% off peoples first purchase so if this sounds like something you (yes I am talking to you my wonderful followers) or someone you know would like then check back tomorrow xx

Blue Monday...

So...today is apparently the saddest day of the year. I hate to rain on that parade but I am full of the joys of spring today....let me tell you why. I had to most wonderful weekend by the seaside....I popped into one of my favourite places to take afternoon tea Le Petite Petanque...it is situated on a bowling green and looks like it has just stepped out of a 1940's film....I love it....and then it was off to the cinema for some 1940's film fun with the Kings Speech...fabulous fabulous film!!

However....best of all is that among the champagne, cake and popcorn (clearly the Jan diet is going well) I found an amazing 1970's dress to sell in the shop. The only downside to this amazing find is that it doesn't fit me...however this does stop from stealing it from the shop!!

It looks like the shop will be up and ready on Monday...very exciting but lots to do so I imagine my good friend red wine may need to be close by at all times to help me through...!!
