miss b loves .........Halloween


Halloween just would not be the same without a touch of orange and black around the house so my little ceramic pumpkin from France is looking very sweet in the lounge and I bought orange flowers for the kitchen - I hope you can see my wicked witch peeping out from behind the gerbera (I think she looks  quite cute and not at all scary with her purple hair!)
                        
There's no Halloween Party though this year just pumpkin soup, hotdogs and toffee apples for tea !
               
                 Happy Halloween!

miss b loves......the Black and White Halloween Dessert Table from 'Glorious Treats'

Visit www.glorioustreats.blogspot.com for recipes 

This has to be the most chic and stylish Halloween display I have ever seen - so much more grown-up and sophisticated than the traditional orange and black theme we usually see.

Chocolate cupcakes with vanilla cream cheese
frosting
 and decorated Sugar Cookies

Happy Halloween!

I came across this great tutorial which shows 25 ideas and in only 4.5 minutes! It's from http://www.wendyslookbook.com/

miss b loves.......Paul bakery and pâtisserie

Tartelette citron

I first discovered Paul in Lille, Northern France which is where it all began way back in 1889 (well, the very first bakery was actually in Croix, near Lille). I have now visited quite a few on my travels (the branch at The Walk, JBR Dubai is a favourite) Now there are about 300 branches worldwide and several in London including Covent Garden, King's Road and of course there just had to be one in Baker Street!! Although Paul is a large chain, the bread is baked on the premises of each shop and it really feels like an independent neighbourhood bakery.

miss b loves....The Little Black Book of Style by Nina Garcia

  
I know that The Little Black Book of Style has been out since 2007 but as my bobochic blog is about all things stylish, I thought that it just had to get a mention (and it is one of my top three fashion books!) It's full of useful tips and tricks, and the gorgeous illustrations by Ruben Toledo are so chic.  




Born in Columbia, Nina Garcia was influenced by her very stylish parents and she has worked in the fashion industry for over fifteen years. Best known as a judge on Project Runway, fashion director at Marie Claire and formerly at Elle, in her book she shares all the very useful style knowledge she’s gathered over the years.
