Get a bit of 3D action

Not in the cinema darlings. This isn’t Time Out. But on your walls! Look here.

Oooooooooh - I love a bit of texture

I saw these Bamboo panels by 3D Walldecor and thought they would look A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. on a wall in a kids space. Playroom? Bedroom? Den? This style (my fave) is called Moonscape.

Spot on!

They are simply glued onto a wall and then, if desired, can be painted with normal wall paint to become any colour – I’m seeing primary colours to get a bit of a LEGO LOOK goin’ on.

Here's another pattern, painted.

So guyzies, let’s start a movement….I’m SOOOOO over the flat wallpaper thing! Panels are 46cm sq and each box contains 10 panels (covering 2.1m sq) and costs £70 plus VAT. Available from B.Brown.

A Choco Cookie Fix

Wednesday, August 29 2012 | by Suki P | 0 comments | Add Comment

Having had a bout of gastroenteritis and just being allowed to start eating again, bland bland, yawn yawn – I find myself very drawn to food blogs. Right now, I would eat ANYTHING! I’m fantasising about food like men fantasise about…erm. I need SATISFACTION. And I think I found it in yet another great bake by the fabulous Bakerella. Look here….

I'm having a FOODGASM right now!

Breathe breathe..is that my heavy breathing? The recipe is by Jacques Torres from a US show called The Chew. Well chew on these baby – look what’s inside…

Oh..Lordy, its a MULTIPLE foodgasm...

A chocolate slap right across the face! I need to cool off.

Bakerella will take it from here and show you what you need, and what to do to create these deliciousnesses.

Now those of you that know me know that me loves a bargain. A designer bargain. And EVEN BETTER, a bargain that LOOKS designer. So for you, my lovelies I have trawled high street and bring to you a round up of precisely that! New season High Street pieces that look designer.

Like Isabel Marant? LOVE Zara Kids. Check this fringed poncho. Piece! £22.99.

I love this grey Dolly Collar top by Next. Looks super Marni – but costs £10.50-£15.50. W.I.N.N.E.R!

Girls Dolly Collar Top Next

Maybe wear it with this. I love this skater skirt by Gap Kids. Very Little Marc Jacobs. Very good price. £14.95. Little tip. Get it smaller, so it’s more mini and much more cute!

Partial to a bit of Cavalli action? Check these River Island leopard print DM’s. I predict a riot! £22.

Rykiel Enfant is a fave brand of mine. I like it far more – for far less. H&M have delivered at £5.99 with this.

And now – dem boys. I know it’s hard to imagine it being really really cold – but before you know it, it will be. And this boys puffa jacket from Zara Kids is just the ticket! D&G eat yer heart out!

I’m rather partial to a bit of Burberry. And there’s more than a bit of Prorsum in this H&M jacket. Time for me to birth a boy! £29.99.

These boys belted skinny chino’s smack me across the face and say Ralph Lauren and then whisper – from Debenhams! By Rocha. John Rocha £18-22.

Go all Gucci on him with this chunky knit hooded jumper by COS €29.

And last but not least – these boys broguey Prada-looking shoes would jazz up any boring old outfit! Wear with a long, skinny, rolled up jean. Divine! From H&M £12.99.

So, darlings. Don’t say I don’t give you anything. With the savings you’ll make on designer kids clothes – you can buy yourself a faaahhhbulous new season handbag. Now that’s what I call added value!

Now I can go all cultured on myself you know. My twins are going to be the ~~next~~ first great identical twin singers. We will show the world that identical twins dont have be be tarts (Cheeky Girls) or look like twats (Jedward). They will be COOOOOOOOL. I’m helping them on their way with this book…The Creepy Crawly Songbook.

A Creepy Crawly Songbook

It’s by Carl Davis a very well known composer/conductor who’s won a BAFTA and collaborated with Paul McCartney and and and, I like it! It features poems and songs all about creepy crawlies. My favourite is is about the one thing in life I dread the most – more than winkles – LICE!

A Creepy Crawly Songbook

I think it’s going to give us the edge.

£8.99 from Amazon. So there you have it. We are on the road…

OK – so you have the bag. Now to complete the look. Let us have a look at some cool accessories – I’m talking pencil cases and lunch boxes. Off we go….

I’m liking this sequined number from Gap. Gives lunch bit more pizazz! £10.95.

Jealous-making shininess

Holy cow, this lunch box from De Kuntsboer is smooth! €12.

Amooooozing!

I love this Goodbyn Bynto lunch box from Alex and Alexa £17. Compartmentalised. Customisable. You may have read that I do so love a bit of Bento action.
