From Laura



What I'm wearing:
Top: From Laura
Skirt: From Laura
Shoes: The Warehouse $10 on sale
Heart Bag: Farmers $20 on sale
Hat: local opshop
Belt: local opshop

I was at my friend Laura's house (her blog http://shadowfeetlaura.blogspot.com/ ) she was clearing out her closet and I picked up these goodies. The skirt she altered in sewing class last year from a giant heinous one, oh and she added the red buttons that just make the skirt go POW! and the top she made aaaages ago it has a really nice pattern on the material. I love it when someone looks in your closet and
makes an outfit out of stuff you dont even consider wearing anymore because its old so all the excitement from it has gone. The hat is a recent purchase I got it from the local opshop for $1 or it may have been $2 it's a really really light pink looks cream until you look close and its furry! So thank you Laura for your kindness! you will be repayed with a brown dress with frills and flowers??

Boots










boots boots boots da na na na na na
boots boots boots na na na na na
shake your bootie oh!
shake your bootie yeah!
I have an obsession with shoes at the moment not sure why, I've never really been into shoes just always had one pair that I wore to death ( my orange/green/yellow keds) and all of a sudden I need a bazillion shoes well obviously I don't need them but I want them badly, BADLY. Sorry I'm going a bit shoe crazy (cornyness intended). I'm even into ruining my feet for the sake of shoes, I've gotten into the habbit of wearing size 7 or 8 shoes when im a size 9 (aaaah bigfoot) resulting in agony, foot shape disfiguration and did I mention immense pain but they do look fabulous well maybe not so fabulous because I'm hobbling. So I thought I'd share some shoes that I love with you beacuse today is about chocolate, I mean sharing love, on EASTER. And sorry for the behind views on the shoes but you can still imagine the coolness that is hiding at the front and admire the heel detail...

Brogues and Oxfords


The turban I wish to own






Yes I know it's the same shoe in a different colour but I couldn't choose!
Not sure if these are considered oxfords mor kinda clog but I like them anyway







My future hair
What I need to make my wardrobe complete....alot of things but right now some oxfords or brogues. I'm having daydreams about me running and skipping through the dry fields in an autumn dress (one I do not currently own) wearing my oxfords with frilled mid calf socks a turban on my head and playing a flute......but dreams are dreams.....or aren't they?? In this case no, it's not a dream it's a reality or it will be soon, once i get my hands on some oxfords, a turban, some frilled socks, the abilitly to play a flute and this dress....Oh and im going grey...... intentionally! well a grey/silver/white colour not sure of the technical name but the colour of Pixie Geldof in the photo!

ball















































Yes I'm excited about the ball already or any excuse to dress up really! I've been looking around the internet for a while now and have come to the conclusion that I have to high expectations. I need to choose something soon so my mother can start making!!! I seem to find something wrong with everything but these are my favourites so far....I dont like the entire dress of any, only bit and pieces like colours or detailing but thats a start!

Bakerella your gonna make me so fat!














Feat your eyes on these bakerella goodies!
I stumbled upon this website while strolling through cooking websites and I was so impressed and inspired and suddenly hungry it was definitely drool worthy, drool all over the keyboard worthy...well no that would just be gross but it was really good! She has recipes with all her creations so you can make them too! As you can see I have many favourites but I was interested mostly by the enormous amount of cooking supplies and decorations I had never even heard of like edible food ink, food colouring powder, coloured candy coating, mint chips, butterscotch chips I will stop nowe but you get the gist! my most favourite thing of all would probably be the vintage valentine cookies as they are so darn cute! But what I really want to make is some cake pops but I have to wait till easter is over before I can have chocolate so that just made me depressed! Oh yeah if anyone wants to make me some food for my birthday I will love you forever and definitely make you some food for yours too!
the website is www.bakerella.com you will not regret visiting it only maybe when you gain a hundred kgs :)
