Sarah Jane Adams is one of our dedicated followers and fans of 5′5 girl in a 5′10 World. She sent us a lovely email and in it she expressed how much she loved our ‘Some Things Fabulous’ segment which gets published every Monday. Last Monday saw the edition of ‘Jewel Tones’ which Sarah Jane developed into her own tribute for the segment and the site.

To Sarah Jane: Publishing and creating these pieces for the daily segments takes so much time, effort and creativity! We’re so glad and proud to have inspired you to the point of taking time out to do what we do on a daily basis. We are more than happy to have it published on the site and we love your support and following!

Last week saw a rise in daily hits and unique users to the site and we are so excited to have seen all our hard work go so far, with a larger following in the U.S than the U.K we’re finding ourselves pushing for more global content and achieving a more international following.

We love and appreciate the support! So keep it coming!

Every girl knows how important it is to leave the house with a great handbag, we never really know where the day will lead us, so we always have to come prepared. I’ve listed my ten favorite things that I would never leave the house without.

iPhone- Sorry to all you Blackberry users, but just admit it, iPhone is the way to go!

Wallet- I personally don’t mind spending a lot of money on a good wallet, plus, out of all the items in your bag your wallet is going to be coming in and out of it the most, so it has to look good.

Diary/Organizer- You have to keep up with your busy schedule, there are so many things we can forget, and this is a great reminder.

Cosmetics bag- When i say you never know where your day will lead you, this is when your makeup bag will become extremely handy.

Eight-hour cream- I live by this, it’s one of my favorite beauty products that I own, every girl should have one in her speedy.

A Camera- For when you need to capture those special moments.

Mirror- Don’t you wonder sometimes why people are staring at you for some odd reason? Well, get your mirror out!

Perfume- Sometimes you just need to spray again!

Nail Varnish- Bring the color your wearing at that moment of course, you never know when your nails are going to chip, and ladies, chipped nails are a big no no.

Umbrella- We live in England- do we need any other reason for an umbrella in our handbags?
