MERCI ME

Something to do.

If you have an email you’ll understand my hatred of junk mail but this so called ‘Personal invitation’ knew how to make the sale, particularly to me. The image alone made me want to own a horse despite the idea being fully preposterous. I’ve never been and I may well go.

They have even gone as far as to provide a style guide for the Royal Enclosure AND Grandstand Admission with images looking like something out of Vogue. If in case the images are not enough inspiration or convey the correct idea of the affair, there are official do’s and don’ts (pages 4 & 5 of both), however the Grandstand seems less stringent sartorially. But “sweetie” you must always wear a fascinator (or hat) - at all times, regardless. You can just picture lady with 3 horses saying it! SOLD. A new place to wear MERCI ME bespoke. ascot.co.uk.

Inspiring

Since I’ve been mainly preoccupied with developing the new website and doing some research into fresh and innovative design, I found this one: http://www.360langstrasse.sf.tv/page/. It’s at these times I wish I were a web developer! Once you’re on the site, scroll down, click the links in and on the side of the page, tour the whole website and you’ll certainly be amazed. Not sure how tech savvy you are (i’m certainly not) but I couldn’t believe this was a html(5) site!

Absent with reason…Russia Meets Nigeria

If you’ve been wondering which crevasse i’d fallen into just look between the trail of thread and waves of fabric…because that has been where I have been for the most part of my days and nights. That and weddings. And just a fraction of my toil…The Russian Nigerian Wedding - I made the bridesmaids traditional dresses & bags and the beautiful brides wedding top.

I went to Barcelona and bought…

…My latest pur-chase while seriously keeping up with typically naughty antics required on a hen holiday to Barcelona! On this occasion two things are expected of you…one; to typically keep up with antics that you shudder to speak of outside the hen circle and two; to pur-chase something of even the smallest size or price or necessity. I, my friends did both! One of which I’m allowing you the privilege. Can you see how I’ve dashed my old shoes to one side? Yes, they no longer filled that consumerist slash materialistic hole I wish I could cure. It’s an even sadder truth that they are only two months old too. For shame.
