Down at the Bottom of the Garden

Amongst the birds and the bees....

When shopping in H+M yesterday I was frilled to discover their new Garden Collection. All the pieces in the range are made from recycled fabrics and have a bright floral theme. This collection could be mistaken for Valentino in places showing that environmentally responsible clothing need not be drab or hippy. I bought the red jacket and wore it with a vintage floral dress underneath, loved it.. I can't wait to buy the red dress and wear it with sandals and my cream Chloe wedges (from a thousand seasons ago). Prices range from £12-£35.

My red jacket.

My future red dress.

The Jacket in Action

Jaime Le Bon Bon!

NERDS, DWEEBS, them bubble gum things that were really sweet on the outside then sour on the inside ... Where have all the sweets from my childhood gone? Cyber Candy in Brighton are bringing back some of the heavy hitters from yester-year (well, America). Lucky Charms and other cereals that are soooo bad for you are also for sale but at £6 a box you might as well pour yourself a bowl of sugar and put some colouring on it. My teeth tingle at the thought of it, seriously!

It's Like Candy

"It's like candy

I can feel it when you walk
even when you talk it takes over me
you're so dandy ".

LOVE, songs with dance routines. Nothing is more entertaining than seeing people throwing shapes in time with the music and each other.

YSL TRIBUTE 2.... YOU

Past season, who cares?! I still need these shoes in my life. Yves Saint Laurent have the knack of putting shoes out that are so classic, iconic, AMAZING; that they transcend seasons (hence why they have to carry over the styles so often). I LOVE the Tribute 2 pump, IDST!x

Pin the Tail On...

For my 21st birthday I had a children's party themed party. I wanted to put a twist on some of the games so I made the 'Pin the Tail on the Donkey', 'Pin the Tail on Makeda'. To do this my friend, Stevan drew a donkeys body (very beautifully) on a piece of parcel wrap and then had a picture of my head where the donkeys would be, as you can see from the pic. It was SOOOOOO much fun, the party was a couple of years ago and i still have it.

Brogues

The perfect formal flat, I always wear them with skirts, dresses and trousers. I love to get them in more unusual colour ways like this pair by Pied a Terre.
