Millinery workshops with the Amour Girls
Hey guys,
Last week we the Amour Girls held our first beginners millinery workshop for Cancer Research UK at the Railway Tavern in Clapham. And boy oh boy was it fun! We had cocktails flying about the place (well not flying as that would be dangerous hehe).
Everyone finished their fab cocktail hats and were still yearning for more - if you dont believe me take a look at our photos here.
Thanks...
Preloved Reloved // Avoiding The High Street For...
This year, I’m wearing only second-hand clothes for a year – well, buying them.
From charity shops, vintage markets and eBay. I’ll be spending less on clothes, making less impulse purchases, wearing more unusual things, accessorising better, giving more money to charity and generally not giving money to sweatshop factories via the high street.
I’m doing this throughout 2011 to raise...

Erm… Excuse my poor excuse at attempting to be cool. Or somewhat witty. Profuse apologies! Merry Christmas everyone! Almost 2011 already. This truly scares me that soon, I shall be a baby toting woman with a nine - to - five job. *insert Macaulay Culkin’s face in Home Alone where he slaps himself with aftershave*
Well, to the matter at hand. From the title, it is obvious that this...

Keeping out the Chill in Style
by The Greedy Seagull
Every winter, I am faced with a tough decision when I step out the door: do I put on a huge oversize parka to stay warm and look like a miserable penguin, or do I put on a cute outfit and suffer? I am originally from sunny southern California where I never needed more than a sweater, and sandals were a perfectly viable option all year...

Winter moments...
It’s that time of the year again. Somehow, amidst the (sometimes) scorching sun and brightness of our short-lived summers over here, I manage to forget how brutally cold winter is; like Hitler is the weather, and I am a Jew under scrutiny (Sorry for the really lame analogy, but it describes how I feel … okay.
