SHE is the icon who's death last year left music lovers in mourning, but Amy Winehouse will also be remembered by many for her signature beehive and 1950's inspired style.
Her unique style divided tastes but this week, fashion great Jean-Paul Gaultier paid tribute to the star unveiling a couture collection inspired by the diva herself.
Models all sported the back-combed beehive, lashings of liner and beauty spot to flaunt Gaultier's collection of nipped in waists, pencil skirts and flirty frills.

Fit Friday...

This is not a post related to fashion, beauty or diy, but something for you girlies to enjoy on a Friday, when your glad the week is nearly over but it seems to take f-o-r-e-v-e-r to get to 5 o'clock.
Well I hope this will help to fill some time! Enjoy....

Guilty girl (style) crush...

Please don't judge me I know she's not to everyone's taste but looking through pictures of Amber Rose I am actually loving her style.....

DIY Inspiration...

A few ideas to give simple items a bit of a kick...

Add some studs to your shorts 

Glue some gold buttons onto a pair of black shoes or boots

Scrub up like celebs: Dr Bronner's multi-use soaps!

WE all wash with soap (at least I hope we do) but have you ever thought about using your regular shower gel as toothpaste? or washing up liquid? Of course you haven't, BUT the USA's number one selling natural soap and leader in organic and Fair Trade skin care is claiming to be able to do all these tasks — and it's now available in Topshop!
Recently hitting the shelves of the high street hotspot, Dr Bronner's 'Magic' 18 in 1 soap claims to have 18 uses from one bottle of its organic liquid soap.

Award!

Just noticed I have been passed on an award from lovely Natasha at Silhouette Skies — thank you very much!!

As you can see it is a tell me about yourself award so I am going to have to think of seven facts you may not know about me.....hmmm.....
1, I live in a tiny little town in Devon (UK) called Tavistock which is filled with old people and is the hometown of Sir Francis Drake.
2, I have slight OCD about food - e.g different foods on my plate CANNOT be touching each other and I eat things in a certain order (weird I know).
3, On a similar note I have a bit of OCD about my bed - the duvet has to neat and over all corners at all times (my boyfriend really hates this)
4, I am a reporter on the local newspaper.
5, I am short - 5ft 2 and a half to be exact - my boyfriend is a whole foot and 2 inches taller than me!
6, I lived in New Zealand for a few years when I was younger.
7, My dream is to own a pair of Christian Louboutin's.

Now to pass this on to 15 bloggers: Steffani-Louise, Mo, Rachel, Halima, Lo Marie, Mercedes, Pebbz, Princess and the Pea, Twiggs, Rach, Jade, The Button Box, Kate, CXy and Where are My Knees?

Check all these lovely ladies out, they make up my daily reading!!

I'm in love...

Mr Louboutin, you've done it again....

These lion paw pumps might not be to everyone's taste but I personally think they are amazing.

The latest celeb to be wearing them is Blake Lively and I think she gets it right, these are the kind of shoes to make a statement, and she pairs them with a casual look....

One day I will get my hands on a pair of red soled wonders....
