[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] I think that BBB readers who have been with me from the get go will remember my friend The Very Simon G. We did lots of YouTube videos together, still in touch regularly and even now with partner in beauty crime, DisneyRollerGirl, make a terrible trio when we are out together ;-). Simon has just become a dad with his partner, Nik, and he now works with Accessorize so I’ve got several items to show you over the next few weeks. They’re all samples sent over to feature here just so we are completely clear, but I picked out what I wanted to show you. I’m kicking off with this yellow cross body (which also comes in shade du jour – green).
I can’t wear this ochre colour anywhere near my face – it just makes me look ill – but I can wear it as an accessory just to add the splash of colour that I’m craving at the moment.
It’s even got a little card wallet tucked inside that you can detach if you’re travelling light and tuck in your pocket. It’s a great price at £22 HERE and if you’re like me and get the colour cravings around about now every year, is something that can reappear year after year. Even better than any of this – the model wearing it on the site is a beautiful mid-lifer which is something we need to see more of reflected in high street fashion.
Here’s how I wore it yesterday for a meeting at Soho House.
The other thing that has made me happy is this little trio of rings – they genuinely made me smile when I put them on. We have builders drilling in the background, sleet falling and wind howling but they just brought to mind summer, sunshine and beaches.
I even changed my shirt to match the rings! They’re £12 HERE for the three and come in S, M and L – I’ve got M and they’re plenty big enough for my middle finger. Bring on the sarong! I have to tell you he has sent me a green swimsuit – I am not sure that’s ever going to see the light of day being modelled by moi on here. Yikes!
