Lady Boo opens-up her Boo to a Goose attic…

September 8, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

You know it’s a good Saturday when you’re worked up into a vintage frenzy before you’ve eaten lunch. Yesterday, I had just that experience…. A few weeks back I met an amazingly stylish lady (and vintigista – yes, I have just made that up, but isn’t it lovely?) at her “Boo to a Goose” stall …

September 4, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton 3 Comments

Could this be the last chance Emma Willis gets to dazzle us with a summer sizzler? On this evening’s Celebrity Big Brother eviction she looks hot-to-trot wearing a neon (green / yellow) top and black embellished skirt – but this look could so easily work into the autumn with the addition of tights and a …

Lace on lace

Nope – I’m not dead. But I did miss a whole day of bloggage. After a ridiculously long day of travelling, we finally got home late last night and woke up in a daze facing a day of planning permission meetings, music equipment managing (long story) and a photo shoot for work. The shoot had …

French food and frocks on the rocks

August 31, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton 1 Comment

It may have been a breezy trip to the beach, but I still got chance to wear one of my fave outfits of the summer – and I’m determined to make the mix of sky blue 50s-style dress and yellow Clements Ribeiro cardigan work into the autumn. El took the photos on the rocky beach …

My Celebrity Big Brother UK watching has taken a nose-dive on account of my being away on holiday, but the kind peeps at Channel 5 sent me this fashion update on hard-working hostess, Emma Willis.

Holiday hair and cosmic nails

August 29, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

Luckily for all concerned, it’s a hot sunny day in Brittany and my mum lives next door to a fabulous park with a huge maze, a Go Ape style treetop adventure course and free wi-fi. The boys are playing Lone Ranger on top of a playground train (as you do) while I take a moment …

Leopard print bikini

August 28, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

Off I go for a little break across the sea…would this be too much for rural Brittany? We may never know. Anyway, I’m determined to find a vintage shop out there on this visit. Determined. Let’s hope the ferry stays afloat and see you on the other side… Image from Topshop

Blowfish boots as summer cools down

August 27, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

I saw a girl in King’s Cross station today wearing a gorgeous summer floral dress with tough, little ankle boots. It’s a look I love and it’s definitely the way to make a seamless summer-to-autumn transition. I’ve got my beady eye on these Blowfish babies from Office – not only stylish (in a rock chic …

Nine West shirt dress at TK Maxx

August 26, 2013Written by: Johanna Payton No Comments

I made my first autumnal purchase today: this Nine West shirt dress with a striking print, £29.99 at TK Maxx. It’s so vintage-esque. My freelance contract at the newspaper has been extended until the end of November, so I figure I might need a few office-friendly dresses for the forthcoming season. But I’m tempted to …
