Worthy reads roundup – Win a Jimmy Choo for H&M bracelet, the journey of a staple food, and shopping with an ASOS discount

April 10, 2011

Hope you had a great week lovelies!


Here is what happened at Chic ‘n Cheap Living this week:
– Photo Love – Express yourself in color!
– Decor thoughts and a few stunning studies
– Chic ‘n Cheap Living Contest: Win a Jimmy Choo for H&M crystal/jeweled bracelet (just like mine!)
– High Street Highlight: Zara three tone stretch sandal – nude, colorblocked, platform love!
– ASOS, Kate Spade weekend discounts and pepper crab feasting (yes it was delicious!)
–Ā Links ƃĀ  Ā la Mode for April 7th

Here are some worthy reads from blogger buddies and beyond:
– Frittatas are among my favorite foods and Closet Cooking posted this recipe for roasted red pepper frittata with sausage and marinara sauce. Ā I totally want to try this!

– Quintessence wrote a piece about Pennoyer Newman – creators of beautiful stone resin planters and plaques. Ā But I am most excited about this torch bearer’s arm! Ā How quirky and functional would this be in a garden bearing lights or decorative pieces?

– Rice is such a huge staple in my diet. Ā This article outlines the evolution of rice from seed to our places (always interesting to know where food comes from!)
– Wear sunscreen always (not just if you live in a tropical country like me), especially if you drive a lot!

    i completely agree about the sunscreen – i wear it every day – even though what little sun I get is through the rare breaks in buildings…

    Sunscreen is very important, but we must also remember that vitamin D is also very important for a healthy body and mind. I enjoyed reading and catching up on your weekly fanciable fancies;-)

    Wearing sunscreen is a fashion and health number 1 for me as I burn SO easily. Ps, I am now a dedicated follower of yours on google-I would love to have you follow me as well!

    Eternally yours,
