Graceful Moments










I started ballet at the tender of age of five.
I was enamoured with pretty ballerinas, satin ballet slippers, tutus and ballerina buns
and to be perfectly honest I still am!
As I grew up I switched to jazz ballet, tap dancing and gymnastics.
I loved any form of dance and every spare moment I was twirling, pirouetting
and generally showing off!

Ciao Bella!



 








 
Wishing I could pack my bags and escape the winter blues and head off somewhere gorgeous, sunny and warm. I can see myself cooling down with an icy strawberry gelati at the village gelateria before heading off for a swim at the local beach and diving into warm, sparkling azure water.

Acid Brights







 


You know you are getting old when you start seeing fashion trends repeating themselves twenty years apart!! I am loving all the fluoro and neon brights that are hitting the shops for summer and I'm looking forward to adding a splash of these brights to update my summer wardrobe. Sadly I remember when this was last fashionable when I was fresh faced teenager wearing my Katherine Hamnet 'Stop Acid Rain' t-shirt dancing to Wham!!!

French Glamour













I had a little shopping spree yesterday and headed off to see what's new at Chanel and Louis Vuitton. Having recently had a big shop at LV I was determined this time I would exercise some self control. I bought a chic, little pair of CC earrings in black and silver and the new season's nail polish in pink - called 'May'. I was very pleased with my little purchases and my ability to resist expensive handbag temptations!!!

Elegant in Tea Rose



 



 

 

 

I am a huge fan of the confection of ruffles, tulle, chiffon and lace
that Elie Saab treats us to each season.
Along with Oscar de la Renta and Carolina Herrera
they bring back the chic elegance when fashion
was all about glamour and ladylike demure.
Elie has inspired these soft shades of tearose and ivory.

Blonde Ambition







Today I am off to the hairdresser for some much need pampering.
By blonde locks are in desperate need of a bit of TLC.
I am hoping to come home
with shiny healthy hair, 
soft and silky with golden highlights
and all the latest gossip!!!

Elegant in Aqua and Ivory





 

 

 
I have to admit I am a sucker for anything that reminds me of Tiffanys ~
so I love these elegant and chic images
of fashion and heavenly rooms
decorated in shades of aqua and ivory.
I also think that gorgeous model is sublimely pretty and feminine.
