I’ve officially found it. The warmest, most comfortable cardigan in the world and with the way the weather has been, it came just at the right time. In the pics, I’m wearing the cable cosy by Isabella Oliver 365. You might remember I featured Holly Willoughby wearing their orange zip dress recently so the brand [...]

I accidentally bought lots of new things… I know, I know, it’s nearly Chritmas but it was all rather bargainous I promise. My latest fetish is shoes.
