Refreshing My Wardrobe…

Refreshing My Wardrobe…

I was going to start this post by working out how much it would cost to replace all of my coat hangers with Jo Malone's English Pear & Freesia scented ones, (£2520!), but no need. Because you only need TWO hangers to beautifully scent your whole wardrobe. Thank...

Burger and Lobster

Burger and Lobster

Sorry to jump on the bandwagon here - and at a rather late stage - but I couldn't not write about my Burger & Lobster visit. Everyone and their aunt has been tweeting pics of themselves eating lobster at this place, and I wanted to add my penny's worth! If you're...

Blog Spotlight April/May

Blog Spotlight April/May

Well that went well, didn't it? I promised a Blog Spotlight winner by the end of March so that their sidebar ad could run for the month of April and we are now in April and no sign of any progress until now. My apologies - I kind of knew that this would happen...

Behind-the-Scenes Video – Another Day, Another Photoshoot…

Behind-the-Scenes Video – Another Day, Another Photoshoot…

I'm doing quite well at getting these vlogs out (would have been better if they'd been out when I was actually in Palm Springs, but hey!) so I'm going to keep up the momentum and edit my last one tonight. This is the third one. (Is it? I do hope I haven't posted this...

Cupcakes, Bubbly and Shoes!

Cupcakes, Bubbly and Shoes!

People of Bath and Bristol hear ye, hear ye: my friend is having an event at her brilliant shoe boutique Lux over the weekend. As part of the Bath in Fashion week, there's a 20% discount on all shoes and on Saturday afternoon there will be bubbly and cupcakes. I'm...

Do I Look Fat Like This?

Do I Look Fat Like This?

Sorry, I simply couldn't resist. Poor old Mr Bear. It really is the angle, you know. He's not actually overweight! Apparently British Shorthair cats can grow up to 10kg, and Mr Bear is around 6kg. He still looks teeny to me, but then when I see other cats I realise...

Sh*tfit of the Day: Crap Delivery Services

Sh*tfit of the Day: Crap Delivery Services

I'm getting seriously, seriously disgruntled with some of the parcel delivery services in the UK at the moment. I'm not talking about Parcelforce or Fedex (though they have their moments), I'm talking about these shoddy little local services that employ people in...

Sunday Tittle Tattle

Sunday Tittle Tattle

Sunday Tittle Tattle (noun?): everything from the week that I have forgotten to post about, in easy brunch-sized chunks... Well! What a week. As per usual, I have done nothing on my to-do list apart from have the much-put-off conversation with my accountants, who...

Charbonnel Pink Champagne Truffles

Charbonnel Pink Champagne Truffles

I challenge you to just eat one of these truffles and then put the lid back on. They are the girliest, cutest chocolates the world has ever seen and they taste like sweets, perfume and champagne all rolled into one. (Perfume? I know. Mr AMR can't stand these truffles,...

Stuffed, Yet?

Stuffed, Yet?

  Oh, Mr Bear. We all know the feeling. Who's stuffed yet? Who literally could not eat another thing? I want - no need - to know what the worst thing you've eaten has been this Christmas and New Year. Hit me with it - make me laugh. Once my best friend emailed me...

Best of the Sales…

Best of the Sales…

It's kind of sad that Christmas is now dominated by present-buying followed immediately by sales-buying, but I do make the majority of my large fashion investments during sale times and I also like to stock up on little bargains to give as birthday presents throughout...

Sh*tfit of the Day: The Christmas Eve Shop

Sh*tfit of the Day: The Christmas Eve Shop

Who does their shopping on Christmas Eve? I'll tell you who. Mr AMR. Me. Both of us, dashing in and out of the emptying shops, frantically calling one another for progress reports and irritable exchanges. I have no idea why we always end up shopping on Christmas Eve...
