I ♥ Work Chic

What I miss the most about working in an office...is dressing for work. Having worn dresses or skirts less than 10 times in my adult life, I am a pants girl. Trousers. Slacks. Whatever you call them...I love them. Being an inch shy of 6 feet tall, finding the right fit for my long yet slender frame, isn't always easy in this pear-shaped arena I live in but when I find them....they're good.

 Then they're shirts and shoes. Why go on...I will show you what I mean!

J'adore kimonos

I've always hated my arms....the length of them I mean. I have the wing span of a pterodactyl and have only embraced them recently. Three quater sleeves tend to work well and there are some great kimono pieces out there that will do just that. Here are two of my favs...

I ♥ Old Vogue Covers

I've been reading Vogue Magazine for as long as I could say Prada and while I have the iPad app and I download each issue, there is still something about curling up on my couch with a vanilla latte (home made!) and the latest issue of Vogue. Its like receiving a hand-written letter - tickles your heart. The evolution of fashion can be seen by flicking the covers of this glorious magazine over the years and while sharing all of my favs with you would be impossible as I love them all...these are my pics for today...enjoy!

I ♥ Taking Photos in Clifton!

Clifton Village is perfect for a wander with my trusty Digital SLR. I'm a Canon if you were wondering. Here are a few of my favourite shots of my favourite place!

I ♥ Reg the Veg

You aren't a true lover of Clifton Village, unless you shop at Reg the Veg, on Boyces Avenue in Clifton Village. Reg the Veg is your independant family run green-grocers specialising in the finest local produce and exotics. One day a few months ago, I spent an hour or so taking some photos of what was on offer...here they are.

I ♥ Vintage Typewriters

Growing up in a house run by a PA in the late 70s through to the 80s, there was always a typewriter in our home. As a little girl, I used to love pounding away at the keys, much to my mother's dismay and watching as the mechanisms worked their magic that produced a letter on the page.

A few weeks ago, I went on the hunt for a vintage typewriter to place somewhere in my house. Just wanted to share some of my top picks!

Tiffany's and their Handbags...

I love Tiffany's just as much as the next girl. Albeit I avoid the more popular pieces and go for the unique especially the Torque line for Frank Gehry. Have you seen their handbags? I love handbags and ridiculously expensive ones. Not on purpose I promise. PUt me in a room with thousands of handbags with only one expensive piece and I will find it. It always happens that way. I can never fall in love with a deal...its always the one's that push my husband's financial patience to the limit!

Now handbag purchasing has dwindled since I have Chatterbox Junior but looking is just as fun! Here they are and they're reversible too! And between £3-something and £4-something...that's coffee money, right?

And here's her sister...reversible too!

As for whether it's available in darker colours, ask Jennifer Anniston!
