I know I normally only do workwear but here's a little Valentines special for you. Love is in the (really chilly) air and I'm feeling girly! And nothing says Valentines romance more than flowers, pastel colours and a whole lotta floaty material.

What will I be wearing this weekend? (Yes, the weekend - let's face it, no one reeeally wants to do the real thing on the Friday. I'll be working until 6 and then home by 7 - the restaurants will be packed and overpriced and.... at the risk of becoming Valentines Grumpus, I'll stop digressing now)

In an ideal world where the weather doesn't leave me looking like a sodden cat everytime I step out of the house, I would wear this.



Voilaaaaa. I call this my romantic ballerina look.... Hints of a joyful spring ahead, plus a dash of carefree playfulness with the oversized flowers, this outfit ticks all the boxes for a perfect Valentines outfit. Girly, flirty and romantic but elegant at the same time.

Romantic Ballet: My Valentines Inspired Look

Lush Is In The Air... Lushfool... Lush Me Tender.. Crazy In Lush... I Just Called To Say I Lush You..

Enough. Can you believe it's February 2014 already? The winter chill hasn't quite left us but there's a hint of spring in the air thanks to the red balloons and flowers adorning the shops in honour of Valentines Day.

Only a week away, NOW is the ultimate last-minute buy time for boyfriends everywhere. (If your other half has had the planning sorted for days now, HE'S A KEEPER!) And if you're a single gal in the city, then now is the time to treat yourself with the ultimate pamper session!


At the launch of the Lush Cosmetics To Go book last week, I got up, close and personal with the Valentines range. Having had a week to trial, lather, scrub and and smooth the products around my body, I've now got some top recommendations for you!

So leave this URL on your boyfriend's browser - or get yourself down to the shops yourself. Either way, for me, Valentines is TREAT TIME.

I love Lush gift sets - they smell delicious and they look stunning. Oh yeah and you get to unwrap them like it's Christmas!! Mr FV isn't great at wrapping (his wrap of choice is tin foil) so this is a GREAT option for those lacking skills in the presentational department.

Top Valentines Treats from Lush Cosmetics

Yah, so I'm bringing some elegance to the office today. Today's little number is what I like to call my "Kate Middleton, Princess In The Office" look. 

Knee-length demure blue dress meets leg lengthening nude heels. A ladylike formula that can't go wrong. If its good enough for the Duchess, it's good enough for me!
