Our week in Instagram – 8 January 2012….
Designer Labels – a waste of money or worth every penny….
I've had a bit of an up and down week this week but one lovely thing did happen at work the other day completely out of the blue - I received a long service award as I've worked with the same company for 10 years.I was given a lovely framed certificate thanking me for my work, along with a silver engraved keyring, a silver photo holder and a small catalogue of gifts to choose from. The gifts were really impressive (to me anyway) - matching his and hers Armani watches, a Tissot watch, a Radley Cheadle bag and a Links of London Sweetie bracelet among other things.I decided to go for the … [Read more...]

My week in Instagram – 31/12/11….
I couldn't really blog on New Years Eve without wishing you a Happy New Year could I? So......I'll probably be back tomorrow with my New Years Resolutions as I love to sit and write a list of resolutions on New Years Day but tonight I wanted to share with you (or at least those of you who are not out partying or too drunk to see a computer screen) the first of my resolutions.I've started to use my Iphone as my main camera lately, mostly because my DSLR is too big and bulky to carry everywhere with me and also because it's actually a really good little camera. I use an app called … [Read more...]
