APC X PORSELLI

The top images are of APC's ballet pumps which were produced in collaboration with Porselli a dance wear and shoes retailer. They are perfect for any outfit I could literally take any of them. However at over £50 a pair they aren't within my budget. So I searched and found Topshop's ballet shoes which come in an assort of ice cream colours and at £18 are a steal! I have already bought the pale pink coloured ones, so keep an eye out for pictures. Even the Topshop scribble looks incredibly stylish and expensive.

SWEDEN-MANIA

Ever since reading the Millenium Trilogy (The Girl Who Played With Fire) I have become totally obsessed with Sweden and consequently the Swede's satorial ways. I always check out http://carolinesmode.com/stockholmstreetstyle/?p=5 for up-to-the-minute style inspiration from Sweden's capital. I plan to visit Sweden some time with my boyfriend... Steig Larson would have a lot to answer to (if he were still living) if Sweden doesn't live up to how he made it out to be in his books.

New: Custard Cream Brooch

I saw this adorable brooch in Pink & Lilly (Hockley Nottingham) and loved it straight away due to my fixation of Custard Creams (Perfect biscuit for tea dipping don't you agree??).

However due to my attempts to start saving I held back. After landing a new job my boyfriend bought it for me as a present and now I wear it to work all the time...

Not a Custard Cream lover? Well they also had party rings and jammy dodgers!
