Friday Five : 10 August 2018

Friday 10 August 2018


What's this? A Friday Five? :)


Friday Five (1 of 5) Saltwater Dupes


2. Tan Saltwater Sandals (sold out!)

My go to sandals for this summer have suddenly become my tan Saltwater sandals which I bought last year. I didn't get much wear out of them then (heel pain and I couldn't wear very flat shoes) but this year, I find that they are  turning in to a bit of a pair of "reach for" sandals. Anyway, I know they are not the cheapest pair of sandals on the block but if you are wanting the look,  I think the New Look ones are worth a look.


They're actually from the teen girls range (go up to a size 6) not leather but they look pretty good and the tan ones are now down to £12 though limited in sizes and they even do rose gold ones though they are a little shiny for my taste. And me? I decided to give the Saltwater Slides a punt this year and ordered these white ones here in the sale.

Friday Five (2 of 5) Watermelon.


Costco do seedless watermelon. This is major. It means I no longer have to pick out all those pesky seeds before I can enjoy my watermelon. And if you can't get to a Costco, I have found that the ones in Aldi are not bad on the seeds front - few and far between and almost negligible. Also for those who don't like getting sticky chops chomping in to their big slices of watermelon, try cutting them in to little sticks like this. Makes it so much easier! #sharingiscaring


Friday Five (3 of 5) Kodak Moment



I'm having a Kodak moment and there is a reason behind it. My brother used to work for Kodak and I have fond memories of my first camera which he bought me in 1982. A Kodak Disc 6000. Heaven knows where that's gone now but I do still have a bright yellow and red Kodak beach towel lurking somewhere. Having spotted that tee on the H&M website, I might just have to purchase for the memories as this is one thing I feel I can legitimately wear! Oh yes, the Worishofer Sandals - don't mock. They look like nana sandals but they are cool. Look at Bean.

Friday Five (4 of 5) Neapolitan

Someone said my Sezane jumper from last year looked like a Neapolitan ice cream. I can see where they are coming from. And if you too want to look like an ice cream, you can pick up this rather pretty jumper now (forget the temperatures, it's time to look ahead, early bird, worm, you get the picture).



Friday Five (5 of 5) Blogging.

Just a girl, standing in front of a mirror, taking a pic ....

Well sometimes I wonder if people still read blogs but basically that's where I started and that's still where you will find me although there may be periods where I go AWOL. But I managed two posts this week, so I guess you don't get rid of me that easily.

  1. Love your blog: cool fashion finds peppered with seedless melons or bin-gate (that one time!)
    Thank you fir the lovely mention too - the Worishoefer’s would be right up your street (spongy insole is so comfy!) and yes, a perfect fit with that tee x

    1. The tee has sold out already! I was eyeing up the Jigsaw/Kodak collaboration earlier in the season, so I may have to go back to those ones. Well at least they may be a little more flattering in colour tone for me. And the Worishofers - they are too cool. x
