Colour Crush
Forget camel, bye-bye black, au revoir pink, for me it’s all about Burgundy. It is so rich and warm and beautiful it makes me want to swim in it, wrap myself in it, feast my eyes on it. I don't care how and in what form but I want this colour as much as I can before it goes from the shops and out of my life. I am quite a fickle person and often get "crushes", be it on people, celebrities, clothes, books, anything really, so no doubt this is a passing phase and I will soon move on. But for now I will indulge.

How Much Velvet is Too Much Velvet?
At the moment i am obsessed with velvet. The very word is gorgeous, it makes me think of luxury, of Christmas, of Henry VIII, of parties, of elegance, of rock bands, of cake, of secrets, of 90's grunge, glamour, childhood, riches, night-time, and all round gorgeousness. It's a fabric that is hard to find and hard to wear, easily over done but when you get it right, oh my you get it right.
I love the velvet leggings, trousers, dresses, jackets and skirts that are around and that they are not all in low-key black or mid-night blue or even the slightly more daring red, but also in FLORAL. I know that it may not be every one's cup of tea but I for one adore it.
