Happy Birthday Dolores Haze!

I couldn't decide which of these two party dresses I would have liked best at 19, so I've styled them both for you - accessories interchangeable...

19 is an excellent age - enjoy it!! The "Philosophy" kit is for you x

Look at these babies!

I've been drooling over the gorgeous (and VERY expensive!) leather dresses available on ShopStyle for a while now, and, hurrah, the high street are bringing out a few, a bit nearer my price range...

My favourites are the two Oasis ones, the bandeau one would look really cool over a white shirt... (although, of course, if you are a 20-something go for it as it is!!!)

Can I be tempted??

Dearest LeahB,

My apologies for arriving so late at your party. I couldn't find a thing to wear! The problem being you wanted us to show you a bit about our personalities, and it was hard to pin down one look to describe me...

Uuum. Vintage? My first love, obviously, but I don't dress like a silent movie star everyday - I have to get the boys to school, go to work, etc etc...

OK - got it. The endless search for the perfect white shirt. A vintage silk scarf, on my bag or somewhere. Lippy.

This is me. Or a variation of. Most of the time. For today anyway!!

Here's to the next 100 of your lovely, colourful, inspiring and stylish looks, I'll drop your gifts off shortly xxx
