Renting the Runway!.....


Me wearing "Badgley Mischka - Night at the Oscars" c/o Rent the Runway

Due to recent work commitments and various travel expeditions I have not managed to find the time to blog as much as I would like to! Luckily for you all, I set aside some time this week to share with you my recent (life changing) discoveries within the fashion industry. Now, you may read this thinking "Yeah yeah....you are behind the times with your fashion just as much as you are with your blog" OR you may read this thinking "Thank you for this post you have opened my eyes to whole new world of fashion possibilities!". I personally hope it is the latter. 

Ok Ok, enough of the chit chat....lets talk (life changing) fashion; well, you see, it all began on the lead up to my 30th birthday. For weeks on end I was searching shops in the hope of finding the most perfect outfit to wear to my "Roaring 20s" birthday party. Unfortunately the more shops I visited the more I realized that a) No shops in Louisville compare (even one bit) to the high end fashion in the UK and b) I was not going to find my perfect outfit in any of the malls that I trailed. I left feeling deflated and a little disappointed by the lack of stylish and fashion forward clothes on the shelves. It was then that I took to the web! After a few hours of internet shopping later and I still hadn't found anything. It was only only then that I thought about the concept of renting. I eagerly typed "dress rental" into google and to my amazement RENT THE RUNWAY popped up! As soon as I clicked on it I knew that this was the place I was going to find my dream dress and sure enough it was!

Since my 30th birthday I have rented a further two dresses. Each time they drop it off at your front door the day before your event, you wear it and then return in in a pre-paid envelope! It could not be easier. The dresses are just beautiful and definitely the type I could never dream of affording. Rent the Runway enables you to wear red carpet dresses at a fraction of the cost. They are the kind of dresses you really don't find anywhere else, unless you are a superstar and it save you buying a new dress for your wardrobe that you really only wear once anyway!

For any future events from now on I will always.....Rent the Runway

The Book that is a Bag!...

Hello fellow tea lovers! This week I am sharing a fashion concept which I know you will all LOVE as much as I do. Kate Spade continues to prove she is a fashion genius by combining literature with fashion to create the visionary concept known as: the book clutch. In simple terms, it is a clutch bag that looks like a book! This clutch bag adds the WOW factor to any outfit day or night. Just choose your favorite here at www.katespade.com and start getting noticed everywhere you go. I can't wait to take mine on its first outing this weekend......Kate Spade, I heart you!

I heart shoes!......


When it came to planning the theme to my wedding and the style I wanted to go for, I didn't think for one minute. I knew right from the start that I wanted a fun, yet quirky wedding with a rustic/vintage feel. So it really wasn't a surprise when I went a purchased these stunning shoes by Vivienne Westwood! From then on my 'red heart' theme has exploded with colour and quirks, thanks to the inspiration from these little lovelies. What shoes are you going to be sporting on your wedding day? Whatever you decide to wear, make sure you quite literally 'heart' your shoes!

What Do Your Clothes Say About You?



I read this interesting article today on psychologytoday.com about how your clothes may be giving off the wrong impression and how we make snap judgments about people from the clothes that they wear. Is it fair to judge people on this basis? It got me thinking.....what do your clothes say about you???? Read the article here:
