What could be better at the start of my blog than a visit to my favourite place. I just love this shop to bits ... it's full of all things pretty. From homeware, giftswares, clothes, bags and one of the best restaurants for good home cooked food.  If you're ever in Cranleigh, One Forty is a must.

Of course, while I was there,a sale was on ... and really it would have been rude not to buy anything, so a gorgeous grey handbag has found its way home with me.
