1. These lace brazilians by Marks and Spencer are amazing. Best. Pants. Ever. Some of the colours are currently reduced to £1.50. I used to buy Hanky Panky but they became ludicrously expensive (£18 a pop! Yikes.) and the lace didn't seem to stay looking new for long. There's absolutely no VPL with these aswell girls, even in super close fitting clothes like leggings and bodycon dresses.
2. Ahhh, at last, a 50mm lens. Having had a disastrous few years when it comes to cameras (one stolen, one damaged beyond repair) I recently purchased a Canon 600d. Not long after, this beaut came into my life and got me all excited about photography again. I'm still getting to grips with it but I love the results so far. I used it for some of last week's food photography!
3. This Cath Kidston Trailing Ditsy phone case was on my Christmas wish list but it sold out at John Lewis sometime in December and I thought it was gone forever. Luckily I tracked it down and made it mine. I recently smashed my iPhone screen so figured I should get something like this asap.
4. I've admired Elle Machperson lingerie for years but have been a little put off by the price point. Well, let me tell you, it's worth every penny. I picked out this red vintage style set ahead of Valentine's Day (bra/£25 and brief/£18 c/o Simply Beach) and am so pleased with it. The fit is perfect and it feels such high quality that I'm sure it'll hold up well.
Has January been kind to you too?

Thank you for pointing out the knickers in the sale I went on m&s website and they had them for 75p!! So I of course ordered myself a few pairs also in the thong and bikini style. Marks and Spencers do the best knickers they are the only ones I buy!
