Raise your heart – my fundraising drive


ArticlesShop

You might remember I have just had a huge closet clean out.  When I say huge I mean, of mythic proportions.  My remaining closet is about 1/3 of the size it was to start with.  So I thought what better way to raise some much needed money for charity!

All the pieces are vintage or designer, so go find yourself a bargain!  All the clothes around me on the stairs are available, the images in this post show some of the pieces available too.  Expand your wardrobe and do something great for charity.  Thank you for all your support!

After consultation with you wonderful readers, I have decided to sell the pieces in two ways.

Anything featured on the site will be sold through my online donation page.

All you have to do is make a donation (as generous as you can manage) and then email me your address, (at the usual lim.peony@gmail.com) and I will send you a list of the available pieces, you let me know what you want and I send it to you. (Please remember to donate more than your shipping of the whole thing won’t work! Even though I cover the shipping I want to make sure we raise as much as possible).

I have donated all the other pieces to an Octavia Foundation Charity Shop on the Brompton Road in London, (between Knightsbridge and South Ken tube stations) there is a rail downstairs in their Boutqiue (that staff can point you towards it) which will only have my pieces on. Get there quick as the staff tell me they are selling like crazy already.

Red Beret Happiness

I once saw this photo of Grace Kelly wearing a red beret, pearls and a cream coat. It clearly stayed with me.  Apart from her style, which along with the era was fabulous, her hair was so exquisite. She was literally the embodiment of what every little girl imagines a princess to look like!

Flying over the Maldives


DoInspiration

One of the best parts of going to the Maldives is taking the little Seaplane to your island resort.  Despite their some what shaky small plane exterior, they are the most comfortable and captivating flight. They take off and land so gently you hardly notice and the views out the window are incredible. It’s the perfect way to get excited about your holiday before you arrive.
