Music for March - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

A few weeks back I heard the song Jubilee Street by Nick Cave on Radio 6 and really loved it. The album Push The Sky Away, which features the song was released on the 11th Feb. So here it is, still getting my head around the rest of the album, but still enjoying this track.

A Cold Ale And Diana Vreeland

I watched the Diana Vreeland documentary, The Eye Has To Travel on Lovefilm last night along with a lovely glass of ice cold Bengal Lancer ale. I love girly nights now and then. She was quite a scary lady but said some great and insightful things.

Topshop Unique at AW13 LFW

As one of the high street's most fashion forward retailers, Topshop Unique is always one to watch at London Fashion Week for a peek into the future trends which we will all be buying into later in the year. For AW13, it looks like it's all about texture. With shiny PVC, leather, fur, satin and sequins, tactility is the name of the game. Colour-wise, nothing drastic really, camel, nudey pink, black, bluebell and tomato reds. One of the most interesting themes was the loose, fluid fits on tops, trousers, skirts and jackets and the midi-length which has already emerged as a definite trend for 2013.

Murad

I was so excited to find out that you can now buy Murad products at Marks and Spencers. After trawling online for their amazing Vitamin C Cleanser, I resented paying another £5 for postage on an item which at £34 was pretty pricey anyway. So I headed over to M&S at Cribbs Causeway yesterday and was actually very surprised to find the they now have an extensive range of great skincare brands (including Nuxe and Ren). I have used a sample of this cleanser before and it really was fabulous, leaving my skin feeling super clean and smooth. I would definitely recommend it and although it seems like an expensive buy, it should last a very long time.

Bowling Fun

Last night we had a staff night out at the Hollywood Bowl in Bristol. I think my bowling skills need a little practise, that's all I can say.
