Welcome, I'm Elle Wellesley. Stiletto Wheels is my personal blog on managing dramatic, illness-induced, lifestyle change - from stiletto heels to heels on wheels. Plus Black is my lifestyle blog where I share my inspiration and ideas for sustaining stylish fabulousness through life's unexpected transitional moments. Ever optimistic, I continue to believe that it is possible to lead a fabulous life in heels on wheels. Smiles 💋 Elle
Poetry in a Cape
This cuddly Toscana Lambskin Cape, £795, looks like just the thing to keep me warm in my wheelchair during the upcoming cold snap due in the next week. Totally love things that I am able to just shrug on and go … It’s from Poetry, a UK online site, who do a nice range of […]
MoreElke Walter, Zaha Hadid Gallery
Am sure I won’t be the only one diarising the Elke Walter Pop-Up at the Zaha Hadid Gallery, London, 21-23 November 2013. If Elke Walter is a name new to you, do go across to her website for more info and here’s a brief glimpse of what she is about: Elke Walters collections are challenging. […]
MorePom Pom Cashmere Beanie
Must be having a childhood regression moment because I totally love this Pom Pom Cashmere Beanie available at the Browns Online Site. Not only is it a ludicrous price (£385) but it would clearly look so much better on my nine year old niece than topping my somewhat more mature face … but I just […]
MoreFriday Treat: Devran Decic Earrings
Am still on my re-cycled industrial jewellery kick – ref to Giles & Brother, mentioned previously – and wanting these Devran Decic Black Glass Drop Earrings (above, £180) from Pollyanna in Barnsley … or these mirror ones (below, £160), same designer, shop details. I’d more than welcome these as a gift. Would you?
MoreThe Old Ladies Rebellion
The Old Ladies Rebellion: what a fantastic name for an online shop. Linked via the Advanced Style posting on Bridget Sojouner, I went across to take a look. I like it … a lot. From the About page: Born in France, Fanny Karst spent part of her childhood in London. After graduating from Central Saint Martins […]
MoreInspirational Women: Bridget Sojouner
Love this look on Bridget Sojouner seen on Advanced Style yesterday. She is such a positive representative of how to age with style. Would that we might all look so good at her age, clothed – mostly – from charity shops! If you haven’t seen her before, Bridget was one of the women featured in […]
MoreThe Surprise Of Our Glory Days
I woke up this morning to Adele singing ‘Someone Like You’ then, flipping through emails, saw some beautifully nostalgic photography of famous couples in love on Flavorwire: 15 Photos That Capture Famous Romances. My favourite was this gorgeous image (above) of Monroe and Miller but I also loved Bacall’s words: Bogie and Bacall were Hollywood […]
MoreFriday Treat: On Cloud Nine Marshmallows
I’m in a marshmallow mood today … and most especially these from Cloud Nine Marshmallows. Salted Caramel Peanut, Pistachio And White Chocolate, Spiced Cranberry And Chocolate as well as Peppermint, Lemon and Raspberry. Too Yummy. They’re the new cupcakes, macaroons, meringues and chocolate. The perfect gift to take for lunch, supper or drinks … and […]
