It’s that time of year again where you’re single friends hide (or hit the bottle together) and the married ones loath to go out for dinner on the 14th and sit squashed next to another couple, who spend their dinner listening to your conversation as no one ever seems to speak! Luckily the husband can't bare it as much as me and the last couple of years he has cooked supper at home for us (Same every year… steak, chips and salad… same every year the timings all go wrong, chips go in… steak fried, steak ready, chips still cold and raw… make salad, eat salad and steak… wait for chips… eat chips 45 mins later) don’t have the heart to explain about oven timings… and he seems to fail to remember that this “problem” of timings has happened 4 years on the trot. Either way with our long winded dinner, I love it and am very spoilt he’s tried.
Cards are not his strong point so I don’t expect one … the last card I received from him was for our wedding anniversary. It was a birthday card which he had crossed out Birthday and written over the top “anniversary”. Apparently last year on the 14th Feb, the shop had sold out of EVERY valentines cards when he got there… Really… Pinocchio look at your nose! He will be getting one of the heart stitched pretty note cards from his secret admirer from Ribbon and Roses. Lucky boy!
Just in case he’s reading (doubtful… very, very doubtful!) I would love one of these spinning love necklaces from
Argent London. I’m thinking a tube of love hearts might be more his style… if at all! One can dream.

I love liberty and anything floral. I have lots of note books, post cards stuck to my pin board for inspiration and my husband gave me a sweet Liberty print fabric knot watch for Christmas which I really enjoy wearing. The liberty vintage inspired tunics have been getting the thumbs up from everyone so I’m obviously not alone! 
Living in the tropics of Singapore, one perhaps might find ones self prone to the ‘occasional’ pedi! Well ok, ‘occasional’ possibly being a teeny bit of an understatement certainly for me anyway! I could even be pushed to go as far to say it has become a ritual for the feet and a vital one at that! The thought of a naked toe teamed with a peep toe is not a happy one!
My best however trickiest bit is the colour picking, I go with every intention to face Essie’s array of flavours with a totally open mind. Yet without fail I get bamboozled by the million and one shades and their completely genius names, ‘Chinchilly’… ‘Bahama mama’… of course never being brave enough to veer off piste and always sticking with my ‘go-to shade’ Watermelon!
Loving Essie’s latest Cocktail Bling collection. Its ready-made, pick’n’mix of chic options, leaves me no excuse but to break the creature of habit in me and make my way through each and every one… even my digits won’t know what’s hit them! www.essie.com 
So, hugely exciting, we have the new Ribbon and Roses collection here which is currently being photographed and will be added this month. Trixilini and A Mod have a preview, with pieces in store now if your inpatient.
