As I am catching up on blogs and the internet in general, I am finding some amazing gems and have decided to share some links with you while I get myself together for some “proper” posts from some of the wonderful “new” vintage beauty & charm books I have picked up. I have also included some old favourites.

I highly recommend this post to everyone. Most of the examples in this article are the reasons I haven’t had girl friends until recently.

The only sort of “fashion tips” I follow.

I am not a big fan of resolutions – but these are ones I definitely want to get on top of this year.
