You can never have too many...pairs of shoes

The Anthropologie catalogue dropped into my mailbox today, and I am smitten with their latest shoe collection. I try to ration my exposure to Anthropologie as I know I could blow my life's savings on most of their wares, but I had just been browsing their collection online, then the catalogue appeared. Help!! Well, I figured it was destined to be.

I am not strictly a heels kind of gal, but when the occasion calls they are a deal breaker.

Waving Grains Pumps

Felted Chrysanthemum Heels

Fiesta Flats

Twinkle Toes Flats

Prize Ribbon Flats

Chiseled Doily Booties

Hallowed Halls Oxfords

As for flats, I have too many to count...

It's Friday and it's "Beer O'Clock"

Hell, it is "Any Alcohol O'Clock"







Thirsty yet?

When in doubt, accessorize

I am a firm believer in gussying up an outfit with a big piece of jewellery, nice belt or a bit of bling in any form, in the name of reinvention. A corsage is just the thing to bring a little individuality to an outfit without spending a fortune and of course it adds the summer to anything you wear.

There is really something for everyone in this arena, but undoubtedly you should to be prepared to go bold!

Jonathan Adler Pop Candles

The new line of scented candles from Jonathan Adler has me in a spin. The Pop Candle Collection is made up of three new scents, all derived from a fresh garden theme. Watercress, Tomato and Grapefruit pack a beautifully scented punch, presented in a simple glass container in vibrant colours to lighten up your life.

Watercress Candle: The cleansing scents of watercress, cucumber, lime, mint and cypress wood.

Tomato: a blend of tomato leaves, basil, rhubarb, thyme and sandalwood. Like bottling the tangy freshness of a tomato vine in a glass.

Grapefruit: Pink and white grapefruit for zest, blended with passionfruit for a tropical tang

Summery scents that will freshen up your space and mind. Good enough to eat. Delicious!
