Forgive the radio silence: I’ve been moving. Personally i think as though I’ve said that a great deal over the last few years, but I’m hoping that this will be the last time. Actually, I can tell you that it will be the last time – there’s no way I’m moving again. To begin with, I’m in my house of dreams (it’s Georgian and it has shutters at the windows!) however the main reason is that all of my family would disown me. I think that tolerance levels for my various enthusiasms and projects have peaked – we’ve done renovations, we’ve done cross-country relocations and today we’ve done “the big move”. All whilst growing and raising two babies, which is stressful enough in itself.
I wish to accomplish some blog posts on our relocation and house-hunt in the new year, so keep a look out for those. I won’t be doing a home tour because it always feels a bit creepy to be giving the world a guide to your home’s layout and contents (“hey all! Do come in – television and laptop is on your left, bag collection just to the top of the stairs!”) but you’ll see a lot of it in the backgrounds of videos and photos. So I’ll leave it up to your imagination to piece parts of it together – I couldn’t honestly be happier, it’s the house I would always have drawn if someone had asked me where I would most like to live.
Anyway, I’ve gone off piste here – I only checked in, on my dodgy tethered-to-the-iPhone internet connection, to post up my November Favourites. There are a couple of absolutely brilliant fashion buys because well as the usual beauty – the Label Mix sweater at Next* is amazing and also the little glittery star constellation ring from Warehouse* is only eight pounds and makes a very cute stocking filler…
I’ve had a lot of requests for a run-down of my hair and makeup look in this video – I can’t for that life of me remember things i used, so need to go under hypnosis or similar and then try to tap into my subconscious. I know that I used Max Factor cream eyeshadow to focus on the inner corners of my eyes, and also the mascara is good old Clarins Supra, but the remainder of it? I’ll have to do some serious memory-searching.
