Black & Gold: Because it's Monday...

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!

Metallic Mix: Bling Bling

I don't know what's come over me, but I'm feeling the need for some fierce metallics as a final goodbye to the cold, harsh winter... So feast your eyes on these inspo lovelies!

Badass metallics



I kinda love everything about this shot, nails, clutch, bling... wish I knew the original source!

I'm sorry it's taken a while for me to get around everyones' blogs... I burnt my hand on the weekend - yes, hot pan of boiling water and a red raw right hand later... yeee-ouch! It was only a minor burn so Mr. Perseus acted quickly... I had my hand running under ice-cold water before he lathered on toothpaste - yes, that's right, toothpaste, (this only works with very minor burns though!!!) all over my entire hand.
The mintiness was incredibly cooling and much later I applied a thick layer of Aloe Vera and stuck a plastic glove on before hitting the sack... It's all looking much better now, normal actually and luckily now, no pain!

Not long til the weekend... I say bring on spring and colour!!! Wishing you a very Happy March!
