Yes, this is kind of old news now, but I wanted to scan and show you a shoot from Grazia magazine from last week.
For the non-British amongst you, Grazia is a weekly magazine that is like a miniature glossy. I know a lot of people can get a little bit snobby about it, but I'm a big fan and buy it most weeks. It really was a huge success story here in the UK: there really was nothing in this category (glossy, intelligent weekly) before it's arrival on these shores from Italy, where the original version has been running for 50 years.

I'm sorry that the scans aren't super-amazing, but you can click on any picture to make them bigger if you'd like. The shoot itself is not massively impressive, but it struck me as interesting as it's just the colours I've been thinking about lately. Purple is always top of my list and I love that dark dark aubergine and the tough, bold black with flashes of bright purple. And that cascading hair on top, of course!
The picture above makes me want to wear my bright purple lace up shoes today!
Finally: I love what felt like an unexpected colour combination of avacado and aubergine, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Delicious!
any picture that inspires you to wear your purple lace ups is a winner in my book!

R: They are neglected, right? I've been living in my Peacocks ankle boots. So boring!
SNON: Glad you liked it!
Brigadeiro: A bit of a colour clash is an excellent thing, I think.

Some time ago, I really needed to buy a car for my business but I did not have enough cash and could not purchase anything. Thank heaven my colleague proposed to try to take the personal loans from reliable bank. Therefore, I acted so and was happy with my short term loan.

I propose not to hold off until you get enough amount of cash to order different goods! You should just take the mortgage loans or just car loan and feel yourself free
