I went christmas shopping with the Girls at the weekend in Kingston, we had a good ol' mooch about the shops and I saw some really nice nik naks.

I noticed alot of things I have seen on other blog tutorials popping up at exorbitant prices too, like the pre assembled cookie jars which were quit popular a couple of months ago on alot of the cooking blogs I follow...for £12.... they cost alot less to make!

Now I know there are tons of places to get your photos customized...you can get mouse mats, mugs, keyrings, teeshirts...blah blah blah... The list goes on and on.

I stumbled across a fab concession that customize photos in a way I have not seen on the High Street before '55 max bespoke' will transfer your old pics, tickets, postcards, reciepts....into a gorgeous fleecy throw/blanket or vintage personally inspired huge collage on canvas, I have seen so many companies who offer this kind of service before but this is genuinely cool, It does not look like the standard photo collages you can buy with your food shop at the local supermarket.

I must admit that the canvas I saw in real life is alot nicer than the one on their website,It really doesn't do it justice.

The throws are stunning and would make a wonderful gift, or keep sake for your wedding photos,

Duh....Like seriously!

I have been lovin' the new range of statement shoes for high street chain New Look, the beauties below could be perfect for a bold bride or to jazz up and personify plain bridesmaid dresses....The best bit is that some of them have been reduced and the stunning red ones in the centre are actually only £10 on their website at the moment!

I have been looking at black accents and accessories - I predict big things for the favorite hue of the goth this season!

How gorgeous would a little toddler and baby Bridesmaid's look in a Ballerina in a box outift ?
I was looking for Christmas presents for my 3 year old and 14 month old daughters and found these little treaures amongst the sale stuff in Macy's, there are some great finds! I love fancy dress and my girls spend hours wearing costumes they would adore the tutus and it would make great gift as they come ready packed in a cool box!

It will not let me attach a photo so you will have to use the link!

Back on track...

Right back to weddings...

I <3 The Unbrides' Blog and thought that her wedding video was fantastic, It was a original, modern and personal way to keep the memories of their day, I love that it had a sound track too.
Today she has also posted quite possibly the coolest wedding video of all time! I thought this was fantastic and so much fun - So I thought I would share it with you!

hee hee!

I like to think I am a all or nothing kind of person, If I do something I like to do it to the best of my ability and have the WOW factor.... as such this blog design (and some of the content if Iam honest) is not up to my usual standard, I am not feeling the love like I used to when I sign in anymore, It is like me and this website are over the honeymoon period!

The Sites' standards had slipped just like mine, I can feel the old me popping back out every now and again to rear its more confident and content head, Iam hoping that some of the inspirations and ideas which have fallen between the cracks of a broken family and a long distance move will also pop back up to inspire you and encourage you on your quest to a personal and beautifully individual wedding.
I realise I need to do some major reshuffling and I have been having some ideas of new features and other exciting things, so please bare with me whilst these changes are put into place, in the mean time I will try to update regularly and hope to get feedback from you guys the readers... Thanks !
