 Happy Christmas, Happy Holidays !

And all the better for kissing under the mistletoe, as our dear little French bulldogs are proving.  You can follow their darling adventures on Instagram at @miss_olive_the_frenchie and @bentley_the_frenchbulldog.  They were the first Instapuppies I met, so they hold an especially cosy corner in my heart.

However you are celebrating, or indeed whether you are celebrating, thank you for your friendship Chez Shell.  I wish much laughter, love and mistletoe for you and your loved ones.  And on that note ...

Happy Fashionable Festive Friday to you !

Fashion and Fluffballs : Tongue Out Tuesday

Some days, the easiest thing to do is poke out one's tongue.

Childish, yes.  Effective?  Pretty much so.

Chez Shell, mercury conveniently aligns itself with our wardrobe mood rather than the tedious practicalities of ambient temperature. So we shall opt for something fluffily snug and grand for our stroll in the park, and I will not bust one bead of perspiration at the very thought of it.  En garde, Australian summer!  Hot toddies are on speed dial, and wait ... is that the sound of chestnuts roasting on an open fire?  Lead on, sweet Frenchie!  And on that note ...

Happy Fashion and Fluffballs to you !

Fashionable Friday : Hello, Hugh. Faux Insouciance is Futile

Fashionable Friday : Hello, Hugh. Faux Insouciance is Futile

Well, hello, Hugh.  Bless your fuzzy, gorgeous, warm, huge exuberant heart for coming to town. When you make your entrance on stage, I'll be a gooey mess of smittendom on the inside.  If you're taking requests, I can see you 'Singin' in the Rain' in a very fetching way. Excuse me while I fan myself.

On the outside, however, can I possibly wear an air of nonchalance? Insouciance? Will an off-the-shoulder top signal the sartorial equivalent of an off-the-cuff remark?

When the concert comes, there's a good chance I'll be as cool as a blow-torched cucumber and channelling my Bay City Roller fan days, minus the tartan but still most inelegant.  In the meantime, however, let us practise our best Parisian shrug and count the hours.  Limitless TimTams and lamingtons will fuel our endeavours, floating by on golden trays powered by energy harnessed from Hugh's dazzling smile.  And on that note ...

Happy Fashionable Friday to you !

PS:  Yay, there's a quick special on at the time of posting on all ShellSherree merchandise including cards {champion the magnificence of handwriting!} and prints: free shipping worldwide and 20% off everything.  Lovely for Christmas gifts!
