Current Elliot Monday on a Tuesday

So we have been lucky enough to enjoy a long holiday weekend. And the sun was shining (mostly) and we ate out with friends, drank a lot of wine (yay) and had fun.

I The new Living Etc was delivered to my door Saturday morning and was enjoyed with a cup of strong coffee and some cake...but I have to be honest and say all these magazines have become so high end, you need to have like £10,000 to buy a frikkin coffee table.
New beauty buys I am loving at the moment: L'oreal Perfect Blur and Aussie Paw Paw ointment from Whole Foods. I'm generally a makeup snob but L'oreal was on offer and I thought why not.

II Loving a new heart shirt from Gap (sorry cannot get links to work properly today) worn with a necklace from Cos. Rich hates that necklace and shakes his head when I wear it. Lucky I generally don't take fashion advice from him.

III. My current elliots have been a great buy. I wear them constantly as they are SO comfy. I think they are overpriced (£300 what the WHAT) but price per wear (and I got mine in the sale with 25% off) works out okay.

Well, it's now Tuesday, but feels like a Monday, so I am doing what any working mother does on a Monday. I'm off to fill up a nice big glass of chilled Pinot and watch Cougar Town on LoveFilm.

Happy Tuesday everyone xoxo

Manic Monday

A few more schnaps of our holiday...to be honest there is not that many, mostly because a) we take photos ALL the time, so a holiday is time out from that a bit...and b)we did nothing!!! Not much to take photos of!
It's been back to work with a bang, on Friday I got stuck in the central London traffic and it took me 4 hours to do a 80 minute journey...Saturday I shot a wedding in 32 degree heat (sweaty) and today has been phone call after phone call. Errr. I need a holiday??

I wanted to really take some time out in Spain to get some objectives and goals together, both for my home life and this blog. But somehow I never quite got pen to paper. I want my blog to be bigger, to be better but I'm just not sure I can dedicate the time to social media that this requires.

But I am nothing if not competitive and that encourages me to try!

So thank you to my loyal band of followers. If you think you would like to see/hear more about something from me...leave me a comment!

Happy Monday, wherever you are!
PS Still debating what to buy with my Net-A-Porter voucher from Carla
these?
Or this? Both classics and you know I love me a denim shirt.....decisions...

Final note...driving in the car on Sunday, Meadow said "Mummy". "Yes, Meadow?" "You are a stinky little smurf"
I am still laughing! :)
