Friday Treat: Cakes and Tea America
Just look at these yummy bite size edibles from Tea America which would be a fab treat to bring along or roll out at home over the holiday period. Perfect for when you’re seeing peeps and are too busy, too tired or a rubbish baker yourself. Tea America are based in Islington, London and, from their […]
MorePlus Size Shopping Reality: Wall London
I’ve just been laughing myself through the comments on this: Buying Plus Size Clothes: Expectations Vs Reality. Laughing because so much of it rings true and doubly so for those of us with ‘additional’ problems like, er, being in a wheelchair or having some other medical/physical issue which excludes even more possibilities when hunting for […]

MoreIs It Gift Season Yet?
I’m definitely feeling the pressure … Christmas is looming like a fluffy white snow cloud ready to consume my brain. Subliminal triggers from months of advertising plus decades of ingrained habit – that’s the problem, I’m sure. However, rather than fight it, I succumb. No fight. No hassle. Colour me Christmas happy. And, here’s my […]
MoreLa Petite Robe Noir
Amidst the descending mass of Christmas promotions cascading down on me, I saw a lovely room-spray – of all the things to catch my eye! – with an illustration by Kuntzel and Deygas on the bottle. Fashion illustrator antennae twitching, I looked them up. Amidst a fine body of their work, I loved this Youtube […]
