<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">My new favourite cooking programme is <span style="color: red;">The Little Pairs Kitchen with Rachel Khoo</span> on BBC 1. Rachel cooks some gorgeous French recipes, most of which are really easy and look amazing. She has established her own little restaurant in her home in Paris which only caters for two people at a time. I absolutely love her home and kitchen. It really has an authentic French vintage style. She uses lots of vintage kitchen equipment and has created a lovely area to cook in. It just goes to show, you don't need a massive space to create a lovely cosy vintage kitchen. </span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I also love her fashion style. She usually wears a pretty vintage skirt and top and always looks amazing with her characteristic red lippy! I have just bought her book <span style="color: red;">The Little Paris Kitchen</span> and intend to have a go at one or two recipes. </span></i><i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The one I really like, is the Chouquettes, which are delicate, sweet, choux pastry bites sprinkled with sugar and chocolate chips. When I have had a go at making these I will post an image on the blog! </span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I am so looking forward to having our new kitchen extension, so that I can do more cooking with my girls when they are a little bit older! I really hope to be able to create a lovely kitchen with a vintage feel and I am already collecting lots of kitchenalia to adorn the shelves! </span></i></div>

<i style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Here is my latest purchase from Next. It is a gorgeous make-up bag with gold zip detail and an embroidered gold Meow! logo on the back. As soon as I saw it I knew I had to buy it as it was so cute and I love anything with cats on. I really love the gold detail and it's a perfect size for all your essential make-up products. At £7.00 I didn't think it was too expensive as I know I will find it useful. </span></i><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>I love making cakes, particularly cupcakes as there are so many different variations and flavours.

<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";">I love this idea of creating a little mini tea set on top of a cupcake.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This is my first post for several months now. I am still continuing with the blog although it's been hard to find time to post anything while looking after a beautiful and active one year old! Since my last post, we have finally started our kitchen extension and we are also expecting our second baby in May! We are so excited and looking forward to having another little baby in our family. </span></div>

The tea room opens out into a more spacious area with large glass windows where you can enjoy the view of the town. </i></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>Here are my latest beauty buys. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>I don't usually buy expensive beauty products as many of them are not as good as you think and I can't justify spending anymore than £10 on a product. I really like make-up, but I do find that unless I am going out somewhere special I tend to stick to neutral tones and shades. I have a tried and tested make-up regime and I find it works well for me. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>I absolutely love false eyelashes, I find they make such a difference and add a sense of glam to your look. I don't wear them everyday just when going out or for weddings and parties.</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>I would definitely recommend them for wedding day make-up, and there are so many styles of lash that you can buy ranging from subtle to very dramatic! My favourite lashes at the moment are <b><u>Eylure</u><u> No 118 Kimberley</u></b> they are very easy to apply and make a difference to your natural lashes without being to much. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";">To go with the lashes I also love <b><u>Loreal</u><u> Paris Super Liner Perfect Slim in Intense Black</u>.</b> This creates a perfect eyeliner flick on the top of the eyelid and is so easy to apply just like a pen. It has a long tip which allows you to be more accurate rather than using a pencil eye liner. I also bought <b><u>Loreal</u><u> Paris </u><u>Color</u><u> </u><u>Riche</u><u> Eye Shadow in Nude 204.</u> </b>This is a gorgeous gold tone with a shimmer to it and again is easy to apply and last all day. </span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";">Another product I cant live without is my blusher. I chose<u> </u><b><u>Maybelline</u><u> Baby Lips Balm and Blush in Innocent Peach</u> </b>which is for both cheeks and lips. It's a lovely soft peachy pick shade which is lovely for everyday use. If I was going out I would probably add a shimmer bronzer and a deeper pink colour but this is good for work or if you are going for a natural look.</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";">I don't really use nail varnish much as I find it easily chips and I just don't seem to have time to redo it. I love having a French manicure every now and again but my nails aren't very strong so I have to make a conscious effort to grow them. The nail varnish that I do like is <b><u>Bourjois</u><u> 1 Second Gel in Beige</u></b> its really a gorgeous pinky tone rather than a beige and it has a fan shaped brush which helps to keep the application neat. </span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";">For my skin I use <b><u>Revlon </u><u>Colorstay</u><u> Foundation for Combination/Oily Skin in Natural Beige 220</u></b>. I am really happy with how this blends in and gives a even finish. It does stay put for most of the day and I don't need to top it up. </span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: "georgia";">For cleansing my skin I use <b><u>Garnier</u><u> </u><u>Micellar</u><u> Cleansing Water</u>. </b>I was a bit sceptical about using this at first, but it is really refreshing to use and much nicer than using a cream cleanser to remove make-up. It does remove waterproof mascara but you do need a few applications. </span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><i>This week, I have felt the need to do some baking! I love baking cakes and biscuits and I recently had a go at baking using some more old fashioned recipes. </i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><u><i>10 Top Tips</i></u></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><u><i><br /></i></u></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>1. Always buy something you like and that appeals to you. It's no good buying something that will just sit in the attic collecting dust. I find, that when I like what I buy, I will spend the time and energy either up-cycling it or selling it on. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>2. Take the time to look in your local newspaper and on the internet for antique fairs, car boot sales and events near you. I tend to look in the paper each week and most weeks there is opportunity to go to a antique fair. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>3. Don't be afraid to asking for a discount. I must admit that this is always something I find difficult, but when I have been brave enough I have always had a reduction in the price. It really is worth it! They can only say no! </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>4. Always handle and inspect the item when you can, to look for damage. I have realised that this is really essential when buying certain objects such as teacups and china, as a couple of times I have bought cups with cracks and chips! The seller will not necessarily tell you about any damage. </i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i>5. Try looking in local charity shops. This is my favourite place to find a bargain. Most charity shops have a bric-a-brac section and the prices are so much cheaper than any antique shop. It is worth going every few weeks to allow for the shop to restock the shelves with new items, and of course you are also giving to charity!</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">6. If you are buying for your home think carefully about where your vintage item will go and if it will fit in with your current decor. Our 1930's home has character features as well as modern and I have tried to add a vintage piece of furniture or object in each room. If it is furniture that you are buying make sure it is well made and will last. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">7. Try shopping online. Of course, this is always a risk as you can't touch the item and it may not be exactly what you are looking for. The positives are that you can usually get a good price online and can compare many different sites. Just be aware of the posting charge! </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">8. If you are buying a item to up-cycle and sell on, you really need to find a piece that is cheap to start with, as you will be spending money on paints, materials etc... Look at what is selling in vintage shops and fairs and think about the price you would like it to be. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">9. If you are looking for something specific for example some jewellery, make sure you do your research so that you know what you will be likely to have to pay. Look out for hallmarks and provenance. Ask the seller what they know about the item. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<i style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">10. Set yourself a budget! If you are anything like me set a budget so that you don't overspend. It is hard not to get carried away in some of the large vintage shops that I have been to, as I love everything in there! Think about what you actually need, write a list of the pieces you want to buy. However, you never know what you may find! </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On Thursday, I went for my second visit to Lottie's Vintage Attic in Bridgnorth, and couldn't resist these beautiful pieces of vintage china. I am continuing to build up my collection of china and there was a wide range to choose from. Only £1 each these plates and saucers were a bargain. I also bought some more teacups and saucer sets which would look lovely at a vintage wedding or party. When I have enough pieces I intend to hire out this collection. Watch this space! </span></i></div>

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia;">Charity shops are one of the best places to find vintage china and they are always at reasonable prices, and of course the money is going to a good cause. This tea set was from Age Concern and only cost £12.00. You do need to check for any cracks or chips in the china as they are so delicate and often get damaged. I am definitely going to keep an eye out for other items to add to my collection. </span></i></div>
