BEAUTY: Summer Up-Dos With Leticia Haute Coiffure

Don’t be distracted by the outrageously cute Spaniel puppy in the window, 59/61 Chiltern Street, London is not a pet store for unusually gorgeous dogs! Look beyond the silky ears and puppy dog eyes of Jack the resident cutie and you’ll find one of London’s top hair and Beauty Salons.

FASHION: Paolita At Portman Village Jubilee Street Party

It’s only three more days until the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and I’ve kicked off my celebrations early, running around London to various Diamond and British heritage themed events.

Last year I was introduced to a gorgeously eclectic swimwear … Continue reading FASHION: Paolita At Portman Village Jubilee Street Party

As promised I’ve finally posted the outfit that went with my Petra K inspired hair. I’m obsessed with this outfit and have been wearing it far too much!

BEAUTY: Lush Cupcake

For my birthday I was given an amazing Lush Peppermint Chocolate face mask which smells exactly like cupcake frosting. For months I had been visiting Lush and sniffing the display pot to the point where I had brown face mask on the tip of my nose and was walking around Westfield oblivious. It’s very hard to use, but only because you must have extremely good willpower to resist trying … Continue reading BEAUTY: Lush Cupcake

Sometimes in life things seem to happen for a reason. Yesterday for example the Oxford Circus underground station was closed due to overcrowding; this happens to me a lot working in Central London and usually lasts about five min. Not yesterday though, therefore I was forced to go to the Zara sale and buy things FORCED! And there they were just waiting for me…. These … Continue reading FASHION: Zara Colour Clash

FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Fur, Faux, Foe

 I took a little trip to fairytale land over Christmas, also known as Prague in the Czech Republic. Unfortunately it wasn’t destined to be a white Christmas but none the less I was prepared for cold weather and suitably layered up. Inspired by the guards at the Royal Palace, and by the copious amounts of fur seen on the Prague streets, I put together this … Continue reading FASHION/PERSONAL STYLE: Fur, Faux, Foe
