THREE new dresses!




Happy Birthday to Me!!! 

My spectacularly awesome husband gave me a modcloth voucher for my birthday...and being the thrifty lass that I am, I managed to get three stunning frocks. Happiness :) 

Long Time No See!











What have we been up to? 

Growing, laughing, cuddling, adventuring...just the usual ;)

Pleeeeease....

Hello gorgeous readers! I need a wee favour...

Competition Linky...

Reckon you could pleeeeease like my picture? I would love a Pixie Pocket dress, but haven't got the money to buy one with...winning one would be a dream!

I have so many photos & tales to tell. Soon...soon I shall return & blog regularly!

Jarvis the Airplane



Going for a test flight in the sun!

What I Wore


One magnificent new dress :)

Made just for me by Dear Prudence, after I fell wildly in love with the version she made in a normal human being size...



And a silly smile! 

The perfect outfit to wear on a family picnic :)

A Rainy Day at Our Place


I love these crazy monkeys!

I Dream of Suitcases



I am a compulsive vintage suitcase buyer. I adore them. When I travel, even internationally, I keep the luggage handlers amused with my unusual choice of baggage (my most common companion is a fabulous cream coloured Skyway case from goodness knows when). I was engaged in a ten minute conversation about my fabulous suitcase in Brisbane airport a couple of years ago!  And it's so easy to find on a baggage carousel ;)

So, whilst flicking through Frankie magazine on the ipad yesterday (may I add digital magazines are awesome. We have no more room in our house for magazines, they're obscenely expensive, and for the princely sum of $7.46NZD I have it instantly appear on my ipad. Choice. ), I read about Trunk & Orderly, an Australian company who make gorgeous fibreboard suitcases, storage boxes, and furniture, after buying up a retiring suitcase factory in its entirety! 

I am now dreaming about suitcases. Oh yes I am. I'm quite sure these guys read my mind & created a product just for me ;) Now to save up some serious pennies, and perhaps by next Christmas I might just be able to get one. It seems they don't currently ship to New Zealand, but with many gorgeous friends on the other side of the Tasman, I don't think that'll be a barrier!
