The Scents of my life..perfume favourites.

12/05/2013

Scents…

There have been  many for me, but only a few are special and remain lingering amongst the memories of my life…they can transport me back to a time a place or a person in an instant with just a sniff…..

They are magical…

This is a tour through my life in perfumes….

My first….it was the seventies! 

I was 15….seems like last week…

Then ‘growing up’ at 16-17 years old  it was this one….Rive Gauche by YSL

Then I settled on this one for a few years on and off…

Cristalle by Chanel

 A beautiful fresh classic…

In the eighties…there were many….here are a few….

Poison oh gosh! however did I wear that?… 

I think it was short lived…?

I simply Loved this one…. 

Escape by Calvin Klein

I remember the launch in Harvey Nicols 

This was my Favoured Scent of the eighties….it was strong…but I loved and wore it for a few years…

Bijan….

In the nineties….there were only two main runners… and I still love them both today…..

Do you think it had anything to do with these lovely images?

and this one….and again I still love it….”l’eau d’issy  by Issy miyake

although I did have a passion for Annick Goutals gorgeous scents during the 90’s

They are so expensive now….!

In the noughties….. it was these 

Cristalle AGAIN

and a couple from Lancome..Tresor…for awhile…..

 and Miracle (I wore that when I got married)

Today….. now I am a real grown up?

 and a Mum etc etc…

I adore Miller Harris 

Terre d’iris is my favourite….but I am wearing ‘feu de bois’ today 

I think thats how you spell it…I cannot be bothered to run upstairs and check…

after all I am a Lazy daisy…!

and Jo malone …wild Bluebell…is in my handbag

But guess what….whilst in london recently…I fell in love with and bought this one AGAIN…

So I am thinking that this must be my ‘signature scent’ ?

What was your first?

 and what are you wearing now?

…I’d love to know?

I'd so appreciate you sharing this post!

I’m finally getting back to writing and more importantly enjoying writing blog posts! 
This week I’ve written about how you can save money by buying tablecloths instead of fabric when sewing linen. 
In case you don’t sew I’ve also included a few linen dresses and comfy wide trousers (my next make )for you to peruse too. 
Let me know what you think, it’s a short read and you can find the link in my stories and in my bio under ‘latest blog post’

First dress #isabellatop by @hubbadingpatterns 
Second @mccallpatterncompany #m7969
Third my favourite #validress by @patternfantastique

Lurking in old alleys & having a good hair day. 
Wearing my handmade version of an Arket kaftan dress. Challenged myself to see if I could do it. I did, win win. My version cost £30 theirs was £69. My friend Amanda  @simply.start.living has the real deal and the linen is much nicer. But overall it’s a fair copy of the original (imo) what say you? 
.
Fabric a linen mix from @sew__jessalli used the #arraytop pattern @papercutpatterns I also made a belt for it.

This little boy is nearly 11 years old. The time has flown. He is healthy for his age but is beginning to suffer with arthritis. 
He finds all the best soft squishy cushions to lay on and loves this Moroccon pouffe!
We are reasearching care of older dogs and wondering if anyone has advice on making life easier for arthritic older dogs. Any suggestions very much appreciated. The vet suggested anti inflammatory meds.
