Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!
It only seems a minute ago that I was blogging about how irritating it was tramping through a foot of snow to get to work in the morning. That was last December. Turns out it wasn't the 'once in a lifetime' crazy, snowy sub-zero winter we hoped it was. Well, today the temperature hasn't got higher than -10 degrees C! It's so cold that your ears start to sting if you are silly enough to go out without a hat on for any length of time (as I was when taking these pictures). It makes the world pretty darn beautiful to look at though, every tree is covered with hoar frost, there are icicles dangling precariously from every gutter, and the hills look like they're coated with royal icing. I'm being pressed into buying a pair of 'proper boots', as my city-boy trainers are deemed inadequate for these conditions. It's true, I've had to roast my toes in front of the fire twice already today to get the feeling back, but you can guarantee that the morning after my boots arrive, the snow will be gone, the icicles fallen, and it'll be a balmy 1 degree C.

Lisa Eldridge - Smokey Winged Eye Make-up Video
I have a huge crush on make-up artist Lisa Eldridge at the moment, having discovered her brilliant tutorials on India Knight's blog. Watching her is so relaxing - she's warm, witty and knows exactly what she's doing. Even if you're not that into makeup, I defy you to watch her and not feel soothed. If you do have a passing interest in skincare and makeup, she's a goldmine of information - I tracked down the French cleanser Bioderma because Lisa said it was really good, and it really is! She rocks, in conclusion. Check her out right here.

Christmas Fashion Show Photos
A few photos from our Christmas fashion show on Saturday. Thanks to everyone who braved the snow to make it, our wonderful models and the lovely Angela McCormack who came along to talk about the excellent work done by Macmillan Cancer Support - we're delighted to have helped raise funds for such a good cause. A new collection from Joules will be arriving in the new year, and we'll be holding another fashion show in the early spring - if you fancy coming along to the next one, please join our mailing list and we'll drop you a line with the details.
