Summer Slip-Ons

I just love it when things come back in style.

It is all so familiar.

Love these summer slip-ons from Soludos.

and Toms

which seem to be a red hot favourite 

around London this summer. :)

Winter Welligogs in July

If you have followed me for a while you will know that

I have a fondness and weakness for English country attire.

When I spotted this soft mint green wool tweed coat with

pink check, I just had to stop. My heart raced...windproof, water repellent, 

100% wool, multiple pockets...the Olivia coat by Welligogs.

Thinking about winter coats in July?

Why not?

Am I moving to a tropical climate next year? 

Yes, but.....

Lanvin Love

I am not sure which appeals to me more..

Lanvin

Woven Leather

Camel Suede

Ballet Flats

Chestnut

Made in Portugal

I think they could work thru a few seasons,

white or black, but I think wearing them with black,

would be my favourite.

Do you like?

Photos and more, here.

Pippa Power

I think it's love!

Imagine the face of Pippa Middleton 

when she glanced her eyes upon this gorgeous cover.

I am sure she was absolutely beaming.

All eyes have been on Pippa in London this summer.

Tennis wasn't the only thing on show at Wimbledon.

I hope she manages a well deserved holiday from it all.

The August 2011 issue of Tatler Magazine arrived in my post box first thing this morning, 

I haven't had a chance to read it just yet. At first glance, it look very promising!)

Simply Streisand

'Simply Streisand' (1967)

Recorded 1967 at a live concert,  'A Happening in Central Park' in New York

I came across this You Tube clip of Barbra Streisand and found myself watching it over and over again.

Besides taking me back many years, I was struck by her beauty. Back then, you were either a Barbra

fan you you weren't. I haven't followed her as closely these past years but each time I come across her I am reminded what a remarkably talented and beautiful woman she is.
