Photo perfect: a week in pictures

Sometimes you just want to share with the world your favourite things! These aren't all necessarily fashion or beauty related but here's just a few of the things we've been loving this week.

If you want to see more of our pictures why not follow us on Twitter - we tweet about the blog @HEBeautifulLife or individually we're at @unicornvintage (Emma) or @haztastical (Harriet, also on instagram with the same name!).

EMMA:

This is my new necklace from Topshop which I'm absolutely in love with / My new YSL lipstick is a must have, this one is 14 Corail In Touch £24 / My little grandson loves Topshop just as much as I do, he was trying on this headband to show his Aunty Sian how cool he looked!

Love my own sundae creation made out of greek yoghurt, meringue, raspberries and ice cream / When I saw these cute heart bracelets in H&M I just had to have them, they're so sweet / This hair oil was a total bargain at £1.99 from Bodyshop, it really makes your hair sleek and smooth - go get some girls!

I did a photo shoot last week - the models looked truly amazing in my vintage clothes, all of the clothes featured are from the shop / These new trainers are super cool and the most comfy things on my feet - ASOS £50 / I just can't get enough of magazines!

HARRIET:

Hairpins from Emma's shop, loving using these when I have my hair in a bun / Been living off Cafe Nero milkshake recently! Their new chocolate and coconut one is lush but the mint is my all time fave / I saw this card and just had to buy it, it's on my wall at work - so true!

Loving cute pink lips for the spring! This lipstick is from MUA, I've had it a while but it's a definite spring colour / I'm now officially RYA Level 1! Learning to sail is so much fun, I'd recommend it to anyone / I bought this amazing silver bracelet from Emma, it's got a lovely pattern and just needs a little TLC to get it shining again!

I'm playing this song constantly on the way to and from work, when I'm jogging, anywhere! Love it / This is my new jumper from Emma's shop, wearing it today even though it's probably too warm for jumpers right now! / This amazing cupcake was absolutely delicious, yum yum!

Welcome to Our Beautiful Life...

Hello and welcome to our very first blog! We are so excited to be sharing with you a whole host of really exciting projects we'll be working on in the coming days, weeks and hopefully months and years. But first allow us to introduce ourselves...

Emma is the proud owner of the cutest little vintage shop! Selling beautiful clothes, homeware and accessories to the coolest customers in the land. She tweets over at @UnicornVintage - be sure to follow if you want a sneaky peek at the latest goodies on offer at the shop. She's there most afternoons and all day at the weekend, it's definitely worth a look for all fans of vintage!

Harriet is a journalist spending most of her days chasing stories wearing clothes from Emma's shop! Having had blogs for about the last five years, she's now concentrating all her efforts on to Our Beautiful Life!

Going by the logic that two heads are better than one we're putting together our talent for craft (Emma), love of writing (Harriet) and passion for fashion (both) to tell you all about Our Beautiful Life.
