Mashiah Arrive
Really like this dress and others by Mashiah Arrive at I Dare To Be. Not cheap (eek, £775 for the dress above) but some serious drama for plus sizes people with a need, or liking, for occasion-wear. I can only dream …

Bank Holiday Treat: Meringue Girls
D bought me some of these delicious meringues from the Meringue Girls as a Bank Holiday Treat. Sugar & cream, pretty & sweet, I was going to post a photo of my own but, oops, they were eaten too quick for me to get my phone out to take the snap. Umm, light, airy and […]

Obviously, I was never quite so beautiful nor so slim as the model here but in (very) broad […]

Go Digital with Rue Magazine
Abigail Ahern runs one of my favourite interiors blogs and her ‘style’ was featured in the latest edition of (digital only) Rue Magazine. I’ve mentioned before about my magazine junkie tendencies (see Another Thing) and was reading today about a blogger who’d gone cold turkey on her habit – centred on women’s magazines. I have […]
