Absolutely LOVE this set-up - lots of gold framed mirrors everywhere & zebra hide chair... What a lovely little nook it would make via here
Welcome to the new week lovelies! I hope you've all had a brilliant weekend of fun, Olympic games madness & time out for yourselves. I took this weekend to just switch off from the laptop as much as I could but caught up with lots of friends and family on the phone, I swear my ear was burning after half an hour! I also watched some of the Olympics, mainly the Womens bike race - it was awesome! I'm not usually into the biking thing, but I knew they were closing the roads I knew very well... My friends had the benefit of living so close to where the road race passed and even my folks went out in the pouring rain to support the cyclists & Silver medal winner, Lizzie Armitstead compete. It was Britains first medal, so I guess you could say we're all a little chuffed. Anyhoos, I'm having a going for gold and black moment, since it's Monday, y'know! Enjoy!

In summer I do love to use a bit of gold eyeshadow for that extra bit of sparkle & shimmer, usually in the corners of my eye set against black smoky eye makeup. Love this look? Would any of you try it?

Thought this was a really fun shoot featuring British medal hopefuls by Andy Hooper... It reminds me of the iconic scene from James Bonds 'Gold finger'... Cool no? Above Tonia Couch, Diver. Full story/images via Daily Mail
Wishing you all a super awesome week! Whatever you get upto, have a good one!

Marvelous...love these pictures!! I've been watching the Olympics, it's very exciting and I've been excited to see Britain get some medals, more so than America & I'm American...I've lived in the UK too long it seems, but they did so well, I hope the Brits continue to get more medals!! Have a super week doll xx

Black & Gold, glamorous and dramatic - I love it! Been watching the Olympics myself and am loving the swimming and the gymnastics and the tennis. But very sad that Rafa Nadal won't be playing.
Beautiful pictures!

This black and gold inspiration is exquisite ... I love the fab gold makeup! We were able to catch the Olympics for a short time, which was hilarious since the family was in town, many countries to root for. :-). Wishing you a wonderful week dear! xxoo
Black and gold goes with everything. I DIE for those nails.

Black and Gold is always amazing!!!

gold and black is one of the most elegant combinations that can ever be made. I especially like the manicure idea! i must try that sometime.
also, i like gold and white during the summer, although i am saying this with the danger of reminding you of greek godesses :P

Lovely to 'meet' you a Brit Greek, I am a Brit Chinese! Are the Olympics makig you as homesick as they're making me?!
Black and gold. Is there a more elegant color combo. I love the look of gold shadow but have never tried it cause I'm lazy when it comes to eyeshadow. We're caught up in abit of Olympic fever at our house :)
