{wishing you a magical christmas..}

Apologies that posts have been somewhat absent for the last few days and weeks..  I've taken a few days off to exchange work for play (with the exception of a tweet, or instagram or two), to exchange texts and emails for conversations over glasses of champagne and candlelight, for friends and family much too much dessert; for elf & love actually and mistletoe; for nights in front of the fire with those we love the most...

Wishing all of you beautiful readers the merriest and most magical Christmas time to spend time doing what you love best, with those you love best.

Happy Weekend: Sleepy Sunday Nights

Its been a lovely week, finished off with an equally lovely weekend. These cold nights, frosty mornings and snuggly, cosy nights in are making me feel so festive; I finally started my Christmas shopping on Friday and I'm getting horribly excited about this coming month!

Saturday morning shopping was far from ideal, forty minutes fighting with other cars to find a car parking space, wrestling through more crowds and several near-death experiences with pushchairs, running around in heeled boots with about thirteen bags isnt my idea of a fun, laid-back Saturday afternoon.. I did thankfully get the majority of the shopping in one mad-dash so I'll now be heavily reliant on online shopping; take this as a hint as it wont get any easier!
