A beautiful rainy day

There is nothing better in life than when the weekdays belong to you and only you. These days come few and far between but when they arrive they are quite simply glorious. I'm on a week off from work and could not be happier. The feeling of waking upon a Wednesday morning and not having to get on 4 trains to work is better than finding that amazing vintage dress or the sound of a empty glass of wine being filled from a nice cold bottle of pinot or when you were at school and you found out the boy you fancied likes you too. I'm not sure if you've got this yet but I am loving having a time off work. Its not because I'm lazy or work shy its more to do with working in a faced past environment that just tires me out and I'm no spring chicken any more, I'm just a chicken who needs rest and relaxation, although not in a barn, this chicken is free-range.

Not only has this time of allowed me some much needed 'me' time it has also allowed me to recover from the Price-McAloon wedding that took place on Sunday 29th April in the not so sunny Shipton Mallet in Somerset. Oooh Arrr! All I can say is this.....it was the most amazing, beautiful wedding. I enjoyed every second, from the Hugh Grant moment of sprinting to the church in my heels because one false turn in the car had left us lost and late to the rustic Narnia named hotel room I inhabited for the night to the wonderful speeches from Father to Groom to Best Man to the wine and champagne that went down so so well to the late night drinks with ALL the ushers and just me to the beautiful, beautiful bride and the made for each other Mr & Mrs Price. Such a wonderful perfect day. Please can you do it again!

I wore to the wedding a blue floral vintage dress I had bought it the good old Sue Ryder charity shop in Reading for no more than £30. The dress received some pretty amazing compliments for which it is greatly appreciative of. It now of course is in serious need of a dry clean after its party like behaviour. It had a great time though!

The weather this week really needs to start being pro-active and must try harder in the sunshine stakes. Its the lovely Laura Hardy's wedding on Friday and we need sunshine like I need a lottery win...right now and like totally yesterday. Please Mr Sunshine put on hat and come out to play.

One last thing, and I think important, is that I am now officially blonde. I would love to show you a photo of my goldilocks but unfortunately this isn't possible today because its a weary Wednesday and my face looks like it belongs to someone else. Tomorrow I should look more human like and will be able to post a picture of said hair and vintage outfit. I don't think today's leggings and old t-shirt qualifies for style.

Until tomorrow xxx
