lady neckxxx







so i thought hey why not post one of my favourite scarf...






the pink scarf i recently brought from ghost(very romantic collection!!), and it has dainty buttons which creates the function of a neck tie but with a long chiffon tail that i can either wrap around my neck and draped down my back or i can wear it tied around my hair with some rayban aviators!!

spotted!!!!!




so i was walking on my way to the bus stop from uni, and i peered over the barriers and saw out of the blue a reminiscent of the final race in the film grease. It seems Nottingham is filled with secret caves and built up scenery's.






so have to go and do some photoshoots there!!!.

creatively is priceless




broken beauty


was little bit bored but felt creative so i played around a bit on photoshop, tell me what you think?xx

meet me in the fair


On Tuesday it was the vintage fair, for 3 hours (in the midst of snapping pictures of inspiring young dressers of our generation, and deciding whether i should remove myself from the temptation of purchase), i found the cutest pendant necklace resembling that of a tasseled furnishing finish!, packaged in a simple but very dorthy style stamp printed onto the rough paper bag x

money making hands




I opened up my wooden treasure jewellery box and my bracelet from 50's Chile brought to me by my nans sister is so antique and brass that it reconfirms what these hands of mine should be used for!

please me mints


I saw this peeping out at me as i was in topshop, i loove (yes thats groovy love), the phrase , and with that i took it with me everywhere i went so i could remind myself, today kelly its all about you!

bedside turnover


whats by my bed, simple a roll of sting (which does come in handy when new pictures find their way in my hands, so i can hang them around my curtains and bed posts), also a glass of white and orange roses(shhhhhhhh ....taken from the neighbours front lawn).....
