Looking for the perfect nude - any suggestions?

Every one needs a little fairy dust

Wet and wild...the boys laugh, but my gumboots are perhaps my best purchase ever

Turns out Hunters aren't as comfortable as my PipDucks though.  I don't think i can be totally adventurous and get the paisely Pipducks, adorable as they are! Instead I'm going for version 2.0 of my graphite grey, with pink lining.

Skyscraper - and a lot of guts

So I know I'm a bit old for the current Disney generation, but I must say I'm super impressed by this song and am awestruck by the strength that comes with it.  Last year Demi Lovato (from the kids show, "Sonny with a Chance") seemed to have the world at her feet.  She was on a hit tv show, was singing and touring with the Jonas Brothers (including her ex, Joe Jonas) and her smile and fame were the envy of a million girls around the globe.  But cracks started to show late last year when there were reports that Demi had punched her friend and back-up dancer on tour.  Then the inevitable announcement: Demi was checking herself into rehab.  Another celebrity in rehab, and but, oh so very young.  But what emerged was a very real story of some very real problems that afflict teenagers and young adults all over the world.  Demi revealed that she was being treated for anorexia, bulimia, self-harm by cutting and bipolar disease.  What is incredible about this story is the way in which such a young girl who has dealt with so much, has been so open with her fans and with the public.  Of course, her story is just one of many young people battling with such issues at this very moment.  But her honesty and her determination to create a dialogue is inspiring.  What's just as inspiring, is her new single, Skyscraper, which when you know what she has been going through, gives goosebumps to watch...take a look above.

"I'm passionately involved in life..."

“I’m passionately involved in life: I love its change, its color, its movement. To be alive, to be able to see, to walk, to have houses, music, paintings – it’s all a miracle.”

Ever since the delectable LG introduced me to 00oo00  I've been having fun looking at all sorts of bow tie goodness and couldn't resist getting the man himself one for his bday.  I can just see him bow tied, a cardigan and shorts at the tail end of the NYC summer in August.  From top: Monsieur Jean Yves, Marwood, Topman and Becker & Minty.
