My Beloved Boots - Alexander Wang, Dakota

Photo from theoutnet.com

I love getting post and yesterday I got a very exiting, and large, box. My Alexander Wang boots finally arrived! I have been somewhat nervous that they wouldn't fit, or would be so utterly uncomfortable that I would have to return them but fortunately they aren't too small and have lots of padding inside - well enough to allow me to walk a fair distance without crying out in pain.  Another pleasant surprise is that I can walk in them, but that is undoubtedly due to the hidden platform and chunky heel not my skills at balancing. Although they do mean that I may not be able to eat for a while (food is overrated...), I am very pleased with them. 
Can't wait to try them out with my light blue jeans and black pea-coat, or black tights and my a denim skirt with a grey marl cardigan, or hot pants and a crisp white tee......the list is endless : )

My Beloved Cause - Isabel Lucas and Angus Stone's Coral Sea Love - with Julia Stone's song ...


A really important issue that we should all think about. I love the sea, but more needs to be done to care for it!

My Beloved Day - Zorbing


Yesterday was my birthday, and I decided it would be fun to try zorbing. What is zorbing I hear you ask, well it is when you roll down a hill (above), inside a ball (below), and in our case we chose to be harnessed in. It was incredibly crazy, but so funny, and a tiny bit nerve racking, I would definitely recommend it if you like roller coasters, etc.


Afterwards we stopped off at the Mulberry Outlet - one of my favourite places in the entire world. I forced myself to not spend all the money I was given on this adorable little clutch, which took a lot of will power. Instead they gave me some stickers, badges and really cool postcards from the release of their 40th anniversary book. This is certainly the coolest sheep I have ever seen!


In the evening we had dinner at the Jamie's Italian. Was well worth it, and not incredibly expensive as you would expect. I love Italian food so this and my Tiramisu birthday cake, was absolute heaven. All in all a great day!

My Beloved Hair Style - Ombre Highlights


So I'm thinking of changing my hair, it's just plain at the minute and has a slight curl, so I'm thinking of getting ombre highlights. I don't want it to look fake I just want a sligh sun kissed look that adds a little more colour. Rose Byrne and Rachel Bilson have got the look just right, but i don't know if I am brave enough to actually take the leap. I have never had anything major done to it, so this would be a big change.....I'll think about it.

My Beloved Photographs - James Silver Horne

Recently fould these beautiful photos by a English photographer on the walls of my local Starbucks. There is a stunning one of a red squirrel in snow, a zany photo of a puffin mid call amid flowers, a adorable front portrait of a Highland cow, and a perfectly structured silhouette of a seal. They are amazingly shot, and depict wonderful aspects of nature. He is very skilled and certainly worth a look!

My Beloved Bikini - H&M

Everyone loves a great bikini, and when I saw this one from H&M I was very pleased to see it is only £3.99 for each half! With my summer holiday fast approaching, I have had an eagle eye out for the perfect bikini, and this is just what my collection needs. I already have a million patterned and embellished ensembles, and although this one is plain, it is in a great colour! Just right for casually stolling along the beach : )
