Candlelight Club London

Ever since Downton Abbey, we have all been lining up to party like the roaring 20s. The Great Gatsby encouraged us even more. So slender, so sexy, so love your fringe, darling.

The Candlelight Club is ace, organised at various venues announced late on and set in the 20s, it is a fabulous night out. I went to the New Orleans Mardi Gras night (phew, what a mouthful). I wore a beautiful long emerald green dress with a gold belt and slits up the front. My hair was a chic up do in a bob and I had a gorgeous clip to hold it in place. I felt so glamorous and as I walked into the club a lovely guy told me I looked amazing! (ok, he was probably one of the evening’s character actors but hey, I’m still going to appreciate it).

Party Like It’s 1930s Shanghai

Oh dear lord, if there was ever a party that I simply must attend it is a 1930s Shanghai party in London.

The events are organised by the Nudge and UFF Tea Merchants. The theme is as described and my friends and I have added a sub line of “Go Large or Go Home” .. we shall be glittering in crystals, jewelled turbans, elbow gloves, velvet, red lipstick – more is more, as they say!

Happy Halloween

Don’t you love Halloween?

My nieces are dressing up as a witch and a black cat and are going trick or treating with their parents.  I was surprised to hear from London-based friends that they were not allowed to go TTing but I guess life is different in the sticks!

My sister and I love watching horror movies, even though not many people come with us any more
