She She She Shine On

So the Internet went down yesterday and what did I do? Crack on with the sewing project I'd threatened to start on Friday, do some housework, bake a cake? Nah, I braved the sub-zero temperatures and went to the pub instead.  Disgraceful, no wonder no-one's ever married me!

Thanks so much for kind comments you left on Friday's post about my "radiance". 

I'll let you into a secret, I cheat, my weapon of choice being Superdrug's Vitamin E Radiance Cream which I've used for years. No foundation, no concealer, no powder, I just wash my face and slap it on. With a shimmery face nobody notices the flaws.

I'm not getting paid to promote it, at less than £3 even a cheapskate like me can stretch to a tube ....and it's cruelty-free, too.

My shiny hair? It's still a novelty, as a blonde it never shone. I wash it twice a week using Lush's solid shampoo and conditioning bars (which last for months) and trim it myself using this tutorial.

Proof I have a life outside the garden, Saturday night and dinner round Liz & Adrian's. So good to catch up with the gang for the first time this year. Check me out with an empty plate, hogging the wine, typical!

Fish & duck print dress (previously seen HERE) worn with last week's customised leather jacket (details HERE) , 1970s felt hat (50p, car boot sale), Made-for-me Indian pendant (the gorgeous Edie Pop) and peacock feather bag (handmade by Liz)

I'm linking and joining the party over at Patti's Visible Monday.

After a weekend of socialising I'm off to crack on with some real work and sort out my vintage stock ready for the weekend.

See you soon!
