In The Meadow We Can Build A Snowman...

At last, snow is falling! It's been a good few years since we had snow that stuck around more than 20 minutes, and everyone appreciated it so much that for a few hours around midnight a community spirit appeared. Me and my brother were having a snowball fight with a family down the street; cars had been abandoned and people were walking down the middle of the road. It was really a beautiful scene, and finally got me into the festive spirit I've been missing!

Of course, having been out in the snow for so long has given me a dreadful cold, which will probably only be worse by Christmas day. But hey, I'll muddle through!

So Merry Christmas to everyone, and I hope you feel as festive as I do!

Jumpers and Waistcoats

My first blog post! Well here we go...

Wondering how to pull off 40's retro in the chilly winter weather? Easy...go menswear!


It's obvious to be attracted to the glamour of the 40's women, as I have been for a long time now (though I only recently started putting this into practise). However sometime skirts just aren't an option. On days like this one, I pull on some smart grey trousers, a jumper and a waistcoat, and I'm ready to go. With my hair curled, some peachy red lips and a nice pair of heels on, I still feel feminine, but with a bit more of an edge to it than usual.


My best friends all have very unique, distinctive styles, but I must say the thing that draws us all together is our love for occasional androgeny. It's refreshing to step out sometimes in such incredibly comfortable attire...
