Kate Middletons Royal Wedding prep bathroom!

So i was just checking out The Goring Hotel where Kate Middleton stayed last night...This is the bathroom in the suite of the hotel - right about now she is probably standing right here doing her makeup (yep, doing her own! how cool is that!)

Kinda cool that we could all go & stay here one day & get ready to go out somewhere fab in the same room!

Engagement Party Bar!

I saw this little bar set up on Style me Pretty (its actually at the engagement party of calligrapher Laura Hooper) & thought it was such a cute way to set up a self serve bar. Im going to try to do something similar for our engagement party in a few weeks time! This could be a fun idea if your having a *ahem* royal wedding party* tonight or for any other party come to think of it!

Set up glasses, chilled champagne, liqueurs & mixers for guests to mix their own champagne cocktails!

You can even make the beer look inviting for the boys (although im sure the beer itself is usually inviting enough for the guys!)

Include recipes & instructions!
Im thinking ill do a peach bellini, a lychee & a great raspberry (chambord) and passionfruit i had a few weeks ago! Yummo

love this cute little outdoor set up on eat drink pretty

cute labels to jazz up the mixers

or you could pre-fill the glasses with mixers & label them




style me pretty

oooh im excited to do this!  and excited for our party too! oh ok, and super excited for a champers while watching the royal wedding tonight!! Do you have plans to watch it?? what are you doing? I have a freind coming round to eat some fancy goodies were going to whip up & drink champagne! Cant wait! today is going to be a slow day at the office!

A Blair Waldorf Wisdom

ahhh Blair Waldorf you crack me up!
just quietly i do love a bit of gossip girl action!

Christian Louboutin Awesomeness!

oh lordy lord!
I can see my feet in these babies coming down the aisle!
And indeed you must be very riche to own these at a mere $3,695
I also had to laugh when i recently read that Mr Louboutin said "comfort wasnt high on his priorities when designing a shoe" thanks. thanks alot! For $3,695 id expect he could go to the effort to make them wearable at least!

Oh look - the inside of my shoe could be the something blue!


ooohhh yeaaahh. love!


sigh....
