Enjoying a well deserved croissant (or so I tell myself) in my Treehouse in Chewton Glen. Dressing gown: Hotel’s own. Bracelet: Pandora |
You probably saw on Instagram last month my amazing weekend in the country with Pandora. What a treat, and I mean a treat. I have worked with Pandora for many years through my time at Red and this was a little trip to say thank you. And it was a photo opportunity I couldn’t resist sharing. I mean, my flat is still underneath 5cm of dust and we are living out of 2 rooms filled with piles of clothes and boxes – who wouldn’t want to use the opportunity of crisp white sheets, the New Forest and food to die for?!

Bracelet and ring, both Pandora |
The trip was in aid of the Essence Collection, and it’s lovely how all the charms have different meanings – from peace to appreciation. I think it’s safe to say, after our wonderful weekend, all of our bracelets mean something a little bit special to each of us. Pandora truly is one of those special companies, and I’m a convert (oh and they have an exciting launch coming soon, which I’m looking forward to telling you about!).
Very nice. But it costs around £1,000 a night to stay in one of those treehouses. Hardly frugal. How about a post on somewhere that's actually within reach of your readers?
Hi! Well I do frugal city guides on a regular basis! I said this was a treat to say thank you, and gave me the opportunity to take some lovely photos and show my clothes, which are still frugal. Why not click on my frugal city guides and let me know what you think about those? I work really hard and many long hours on the so would love to know what you think x
It looks so peaceful and you've captured it perfectly! What camera do you use?x
Thank you! I recently bought the Canon Powershot G7 – it was expensive but I knew I needed to invest in my blog! It has a flip screen so good for selfies (not that I use that much!) and flat lays! Some of the photos of me are by Stephanie Sian Smith as well, she was on the trip just to take photographs – what a treat – I usually have to make my poor husband take photos! x
Looks like a beautiful, well deserved break. Every frugal girl deserves a treat. Lucky you! Beautiful x x
Indeed! xx
It looked divine on IG and even more so here! Glaf you escaped the dust and managed to get some respite from the city! X
to say thank you for what?
I've worked with Pandora for over 8 years with my work at Eve, Red and as a freelance stylist.
It was so needed! Shame I'll probably never go back…..! x
