Pink Sunday

I have had a lovely Sunday, it started as I think all good Sundays should, with poached eggs! After my eggs I trotted on over to Judy's Affordable Vintage Fair, which was a little piece of heaven. After much ooh-ing and ahh-ing everything I settled on sensible purchases like this scarf:

And these brooches from Rare and Flair, at two for £5 you can't argue!

I really think that I need to just raid my grannies wardrobe for scarves and brooches, surely that would save me money and free up some space for her - that's bound to be a useful suggestion right?

Kitty-tastic

For someone my age I should really be over the whole Hello Kitty fad, but no way! I love a good bit of Hello Kitty (see previous posts here). So imagine my squeal of delight when I saw these geeky glasses. I'm sure you'll agree they are blooming beautiful!

Sand and Feathers

I'd really love to be in a desert wearing feathers...

Cupcake Stand

So many of you will have heard me banging on about this cake stand from Accessorize and it finally arrived this week. But it's just too pretty to put actual cupcakes on, I mean what if I get icing on it? I then came up with a genius idea, I always forget just how much jewellery I have because it's mostly hidden away in my jewellery boxes (they are super pretty but enclosed) especially all my flowers and brooches. So instead of cakes I'm going to put out all of my brooches and pretty jewellery so that I can see them all of the time. Here is the stand empty, see it's too pretty:

And all my junk:

Now I can see it all - yay!

Glitter is my Prozac

So my friend Carol from My Stylisms found this illustration for me and it couldn't be more me! Glitter is my favourite thing on the planet and when I'm feeling down I have been known to put bucket loads across my eyes and go out and dance away my troubles!

Pink Sunday

This weeks Pink Sunday is a taste of something I'm waiting for in the post. I got an email from Accessorize had to hold in a squeal when I saw this camera. I honesly can not wait for it to arrive on my desk at work, lets hope that the sun keeps shining so that I can play in the sun with my new camera!

The Royal Wedding - Us and Them

So it's said that everyone loves a wedding, especially when it's a Royal Wedding. I've only just been able to pull myself away from all the newspapers and news coverage of William and Catherine's wedding on Friday. Sadly for the actual event I was at work, but we made the most of it with bunting, flags and Pimms...

But we did manage to sneak a few glimpses of what was going on sigh in awe of Catherine Middleton's breathtaking dress by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen:

This dress is so beautiful and I honestly think it will be timeless, it's a very close second in my all time favourites of Royal wedding dresses.  But nothing can beat Princess Margaret's:

We also managed to get a cheeky print screen of the couples kiss on the balcony!

Then this is where it all gets a little weird, to celebrate the Royal Wedding me and some friends decided to gather at my flat for scones, fizz and highlights of the wedding; dresses as the Royal Family....

Weird! Were you all watching? I'll give you my favourite outfits later today, right now I'm off to buy some more newspapers and look at more photos of the wedding.
