HOT YUMMY GOAT'S CHEESE SALAD

This salad is my favourite thing my other half makes for me and I beg to have it for breakfast lunch and dinner, then supper. But to ensure my behind does not super-size, its a once a week treat.

Ingredients

8oz cherry vine toms

4 garlic gloves (I use 6/7.. I have a fear of vampires)

Olive oil

7oz soft rind goats cheese (we use the mini Capricorn's and have one each)

2oz wild rocket

Balsamic vinegar

Salt and pepper

Method

1. Put the toms and garlic in the over (180'C) drizzled with olive oil for about 20 minutes

2. Remove the top and bottom rinds off the goats cheese and slice in half horizontally and place on a heat proof dish

3. Place under the grill for 3-4 minutes, until turning brown

4.Arrange rocket on the plates with the toms and garlic placed around , keeping the juices in the tray, and then place the yummy hot cheese on top.

5. Add the Balsamic vinegar to the juices from the toms and mix to make a dressing, then drizzle here there and everywhere on the salad... SCRUMMYYY

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.

Just like when it comes to ordering off a menu, I cannot decide which one of these visual treats I am going to spoil myself with.

"The inspriation was very easy-I love junk food!

I was thinking of what I would like to wear to the gym,

and I thought junkfood on t shirts and sweatshirts would be perfect!

Perhaps not very motivational, but definitley very amusing!"

Personally, I won't be sporting one of these to the gym, I think it would most probably be a health and safety issue when it comes to running on the treadmill in front of the mirror!

When it comes to choice though, I think the hot dog has my heart...

PUCKER UP

Stamp your other halves cheeks with a neon kiss. Another one of my favourite trends for S/S '11, although time must be taken to find the perfect shade for you, once found and matched with sleek hair and minimal make-up (think more classy colour-pop than confused colored Keisha) a match made in neon heaven.

 

LEOPARD...AND THE LIKE

There is something inside of me, very deep but very strong, that is weak for leopard print. Thankfully it is still going to be very big this Spring/Summer (can I just take this chance to urge that to hurry up please) meaning there are lots of variations to choose from. Whether its in Topshop Boutique's influenced silk shorts or Stella McCartney's beautifully executed dress or even Diane Von Furstenberg's fuchsia print swimsuit, with simple accessories anyone can carry off this classic print.

  

        

Personally I'm purchasing Zara's fiercely fabulous ankle boots. I like my leopards lively!

ONE FOR EVERYONE

Not being one to miss anyone out, Mulberry is making sure every creature great and small is looking positively fabulous this season. 

These dog coats are just stylishly adorable, beautifully put together and far too perfect for a walk in the muddy park.  Now I just need to pick me up a pooch.

SUBTLE HINT...

Just in case you forgot what you came in for... 

                                           ...Okay then!

L is for Love and for Lanvin

Now that the festivities have been put behind us (probably more so on our behinds) the excitement can be fully directed to now plumping out our Spring/Summer wardrobes instead, finally.
Lanvin have captured my heart this season and I want to be falling head over in their heels.
What I love the most is that these looks seem very wearable. The long flowing, almost grecian, frocks are counter balanced with body hugging asymmetric upper halves, bringing in a 'sporty luxe' element to the ensemble.

                   

The embellished pieces do not seem to have that 'over-the-top' feel to them that most do, instead the simple color palate and forms of the fabric compliment each other and again appeal to most as extremely wearable, especially with the accessorizing of a flat sandal! Vertically challenged other halves can breathe a sigh of relief...

                  

This whole collection for me is a very much must have. The swishing, draping floor lengths mixed with simple cuts and understated embellishments (I still find it hard to believe there is such a thing) just tick every box for me. I just want to speed walk this right off the runway and into my closet. Merry Spring!

DEAR GOD.

Although these shoes may look like a shaped magnet that has got lucky at Sunday service and thus collected every crucifix in sight, they aren't. This black patent heeled boot is the work of Gasoline Glamour and I just love it. Im not normally one for 'ga-ga-esque' dressing but I would love these saintly boots to grace my feet sometime soon. Dear God, please ?
