WE HAVE MOVED HOME

Afternoon Listening

After spending the festive year being bombarded with Buble and what not I was quite relieved to find myself watching a fabulous NYE show headed by the master of the music Jools Holland. His annual Hootananny is rather good with a few favourites from his show standing out for me so I thought I would share them with you:

 I adored this band and their laid back approach to good time music. The harmonica player was the star of the show for me. Their music is something I am off to buy ASAP and I am totally in love with the fact I can buy their music on vinyl! Visit their site here: POKEY LAFARGE



This woman damn well nearly stole the show for me. Her energy was amazing! She even gave an impromptu impression of Tina Turner. For me she showed Jessie J (another performer on the show) how its done. I loved her performance. HATS OFF TO YOU LOVELY! Her collection is available on Amazon and itunes.



Anyone who knows me is aware of my soft spot for the lovely Caro Emerald. She is beautiful but fair more importantly she is talented. Here she is performing Bad Romance originally performed by another creative lovely (Lady Gaga). Whilst not the mesmerizing performance she gave on the show, I love her take on this well known song. Well done beautiful. Her music is available on itunes but check out her website for all the loveliness it offers. CARO EMERALD WEBSITE

I know this is only three musical recommendations but just have listen to their vocal offerings...I adore them and their work. ENJOY

To all you sale shoppers...may the force and the money be with you. I went out today and felt like I had stepped into battle with half the UK.

Festive Footwear

Fed up with trudging through the wet and cold in footwear that is only practical and not pretty? Well I have been scouring. Here are some of my favourites:

These I spotted on the Office website...Red for Christmas and the bow for a feminine touch. Practical wellies but  definitely not dull!

Ok so they have a heel but it is only small AND they are leather! I actually own these...I love them oodles. Sexy almost Victorian feel to them. Team with a skirt or dress...or for those who dare tights and high waisted shorts...bbbrrr but sexy look. These are from Office too...


I love the colour of these ankle boots and the colour! With the brogue detail these chelsea boots are on my want list of Santa! I found these on the Dune site...snap them up and they come in two other colours: black and tan.


Ok ok I know these arent practical but who can resist sparkles at Christmas time? yes I know you need to take care with these heels too but lets just say if you fall over...at least your feet will be pretty! Again another Dune find!


These are fun...the psychobilly appeal is here for me. This is take on the staple 'creeper' shoes. I found these in Debenhams...


I adore these creepers! Pointy toes and purple! Ding dong...I will buy these! I found them at Underground! Fab collection of creepers!
