Cheer Up Company Cushions


I'm not generally a fan of Union Jack stuff but this really made me smile. How cute is this handmade felt covered cushion by Karen Hilton for the aptly named Cheer Up Clothing Company
I love the black, pink and oatmeal colourway but the monochrome version is very cool too, and it's a totally reasonable £34.99 including the cushion pad (which to my mind is how cushions should be sold - listen up Zara Home et al who tell you at the till that the cushion price is just for the cover - the pad is extra. Not cool.)  

As well as this happy little cushion, the site has some great hoodies, sweats and random accessories too so I'm sure they'll be popping up on here again soon.

Cute Food! Babycakes Waffle Makers



Everyone loves waffles, right? There's nothing quite like the sweet, droolsome scent as they're baking (although the Philosophy shower gel does get pretty damn close).  These cutesy waffle fingers and romantic heart shaped breakfast waffle pops on sticks are made with little Babycakes waffle making machines that are around $25 each via The Fancy or Amazon (so you can get them shipped to the UK). Much more fun than yet another cake pop...

It's that warm, cosy, apple pie, cinnamon spice time of year again and this new LCN Baked Apple lipgloss (£6.80 from www.bcidirect.com) has got to be the cutest, calorie free way to enjoy these wonderful winter flavours. How adorable is the little apple pot?? I LOVE...


...and I'm not the only one...


There's also a hand cream, foot cream, nail care pen and file in the Baked Apple collection - all available from BCIDirect.com, as before. Yummmmmmm.

Saint Bustier - Designer Busty Girl Fashion Site - Launches


I'M SORRY. I know I've been gone a long time so I figured I owed you an explanation, and here it is: Saint Bustier

For the past few months I've been part of the Saint Bustier team, working on bringing you the first ever designer fashion boutique to cater for women who wear regular clothes sizes (UK 8-18) but have large cup sizes (D-H). As the fantastique Mademoiselle Robot described it, Saint Bustier is "a real game changer... the Net A Porter of boobies".

SaintBustier.com has just launched and is proving hugely popular already - it seems there are a lot of us out there who find it hard to buy clothes that don't gape, strain or cause wholly indecent wardrobe malfunctions without having to go up a size or two to accommodate our ample chests. 

I'm a firm believer that fashion is for everyone and should be accessible so - given the majority of fashion is cut to a B cup regardless of clothing size - I'm delighted to be involved with Saint Bustier. We're bringing gorgeous, well fitting, D-H cup fashion and awesome outfits, other than your bog standard wrap dresses and v-neck t-shirts, from great brands (scandi-cool to American starlet and Brit chic) to the booby masses. 

Everything's pictured on 30E-32GG models too, along with detailed Fit Notes, so you can get a better idea of what to expect depending on your particular shape.

As most of you know, I'm a sucker for a sequin so here's a couple of my fav picks from the site, above is the Emma dress with embellished shoulders in Cream, £350, by Bastyan from Saint Bustier, worn with some exquisite Jasmine Citrine Smokey chandelier earrings, £120, from Sushilla.co.uk, by our fabulous 32GG model. 

Below, Deluxe Sequinned Blazer, £110 (which is pictured here on a 30FF model but fits to an H cup), and matching Deluxe Sequinned Pant, £89, both by Second Female from Saint Bustier.

Katie Grand x Hogan 'Gang' Collection - I *Heart* Hi-Tops


Katie Grand is AWESOME. Editor of LOVE magazine, super stylist, Central St. Martins grad and fellow North London resident. Do I want to be in her gang? HELL YEAH. And, after working with her for years now, the smarty pants over at Hogan - sister label to the Italian leather brand Tod's (you know, the loafer people) - obviously realise I'm not the only one.  In a very smart move that brings them some serious street cred, Hogan have just revealed the Katie Grand x Hogan 'Gang' accessories collection which drops in January. 

The youthful, Harajuku style collection includes some fun bags, ballet flats and great sunglasses but - obviously - my favs are these amazing hi top trainers and wedge sneakers.  The heart detail on the heels is straight off the Nike 2002 Valentine's Series Air Force 1s but, whatever, it's super cute and I absolutely LOVE it.
