Niamh Curry is a beautiful little 5 year old girl who lives locally to me. She has become somewhat of a celebrity in her short little life and has touched the hearts of millions.
She and her fabulously dedicated family have fought tirelessly to raise money to take her to America for life saving treatment after her cancer returned. The UK does not have a relapse program for Neuroblastoma and they were faced with a huge challenge. Niamh was bought to my attention several weeks ago when we successfully raised money for her with a cake sale at work. Then, I decided I would do what I could to fight for her cause. I spent a lot of time thinking about Niamh. Her story and fight really touched me.
Last night, she lost her fight against cancer.
She has left a empty place in a lot of hearts, including mine. I didn't meet Niamh. I didn't get the chance to but I really wish I had the time with her. Just to hold her little hand and tell her shes the bravest person I know.
Thousands of people have laid tribute to this stunning little lady and have raised money and awareness of this awful childhood cancer.
Please take 5 minutes out of your life to read her story. If you feel you can donate anything, just a pound, her family are now raising money for the charity.

Not sure if this counts but it would be my eyelashes/make up. It makes me feel more feminine and sexy when Ive got my face on. I don't go overboard - but you can tell the difference between lashes and no lashes!
20th. Shoes you love but hardly wear
I love my peep toe tbars but barely wear them anymore. I must make time for them! I love the fit and the look. They are my babies. As you can see they are Viva La Diva and look amazeballs on.
