You can't really go wrong with good old earthy tones, classic beige's and pretty pinks! Always timeless, always easy to wear whoever you are and whatever the trend! I say take a little break from the colour-blocking mania and mismatched prints! 

Another plus point worth mentioning I guess.....at least there is no battle trying to figure out what colour wash to stick these clothes in..........

Happy shopping people x

I got it right at last.....

Here are some cupcakes I made on Sunday. I had a bit of a disaster with a silicone piping bag previously.....which subsequently ended up in the bin. Since, I have bought some bog standard plastic ones, you cut the end off to fit whatever nozzles that you use. Much easier.

These are vanilla sponges with vanilla buttercream. Simple I know, but I didn't want to mess it up again.

My Cornwall


It was Pedley's birthday this weekend, he had a moustache party with another friend whose birthday it was also. I might post one or two pics when I find the time!

The day after, hangover abolished by PLENTY of carbs, me and Pedley went to Sams on the Beach for a meal. Which by the way was stunning...as usual. Especially so as I had got word from one of the waiters that we knew, that Danni Minogue would be coming in for a meal and would sat on the next table to us! Imagine my excitement! (having never seen a real-life celeb before living in deepest darkest Cornwall)

It appeared that she was late and the restaurant had to give her a call only to find out that they were not booked in that night at all! Sams had got it all terribly wrong and I was rather gutted!! Nevermind....

Me and Ped had lovely food and lovely bubbly followed by lovely desert, the homemade waffles were to die for!

(We had picked at this a bit before I took a photo so it doesn't look quite as perfect as it did!)

Anyways...my dress was a serious bargain, from Debenhams. It cost me £22.50 down from £75 and I HAD TO HAVE IT :) I wore it with my Lancaster watch and (doing my bit for charity) my Fashion Targets Breast Cancer wristband, read about their wonderful work here. :)

I hope everyone has had a crackin' Easter (o dear) and that you are having wonderful weather, relish the time off, back to work Tuesday for a 3 day week! (Thank you Kate and Wills!!) Woop Woop!
