Leigh-On-Sea

If you are ever in Essex , beautiful place it is :), you should take a trip to the small sea side town of 

Leigh-On-Sea.

I Lived in Essex for 5 years and still go back regularly to see my friends.

All the way back in May we went over to visit my good friends awesome coffee shop - Barlow And Fields.

I was having a bit of a B&W day as you can see:)

I just came across the photos which is why its taken me this long to put them out there!!

Hope you are all having joyful weeks!

All this happiness - Wearing the book

I love Kater's from All This Happiness Wearing Book series, it's one of my favourite fashion/book nerd concepts!! She pairs the colours so pretty too!!

I would love to have the courage to do some outfit posts, especially if they are as inventive as Katers.

Maybe this summer is the time to unleash my looks on the internet :)

Paul and Joanne

On a gray Monday day sometimes you just need a love story to make you feel all happy and warm inside.

I watched The Long Hot Summer last night for the first time which was Paul Newman and Joanne Woodwards first film together. 

I love them both and even more their love that lasted 50 years up until his death in 2008.

The way he looks at her breaks my heart a little bit!!

I think they are my favourite ever couple (apart from my mum and dad of course!!) 

and renew my faith in love and relationships whenever it gets a bit shakey.

Happy Monday everyone!!!

Vintage Knitting Patterns

Thanks to the awesome Vixen Vintage I discovered the amazingness that is 

the V&A collection of 1940's Patterns To Knit.

All these Patterns and more available FREE to download here.

I love the Turbans and the last Cardigan pattern. I am still working my way through the Cannot Fail To Please jumper, but I'm getting there, almost done with the back and so am getting itchy feet, looking around for my next project!! 

Hope you all are having a lovely week so far!!
