Finding your perfect glasses with Perfect Glasses
I am in the odd one out in my family. My mom, sister and brother all wear glasses due to poor eyesight (although Mom does venture into contact lense territory at times.) My dad wears glasses for reading too, so the only person who doesn’t wear glasses is me, which, I have to be honest, sometimes leads to me feeling a little left out. Because where, once upon a time, glasses were something to be dreaded, with thick frames, even thicker lenses and style left at the opticians door, these days this is so not the case. Today glasses, particularly women’s glasses, are a stylish addition to any look or…

Let’s face it, black is always the new black. It’s not only the most flattering colour out there but it’s also the easiest colour to mix with other colours, so it’s an all round winner.

Handmade Charms from House of Wonderland
One of my passions when it comes to jewellery are charm bracelets. I think this comes from both my mom and nan, who I can distinctly remember wearing heavy silver varieties when I was a child. I loved to examine all the charms in detail, and remember that my faves were a silver churn that opened, and a crown that had a purple amethyst stone in the centre. As an adult I am still a fan, and have both a Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland themed bracelet, as well as a charity one designed for Wallis many years ago, and a Pandora bracelet. But my favourite is probably…
