Post Secret

I don't know what to do with these feelings...

http://postsecret.com Check it every Sunday. One of my secrets is always hidden amongst the litter.

Loot lovin'

A little retail therapy has been in need lately, and here I am to show off some of my loot!

I'm sick of carrying around a huge handbag, so lately I've been opting for this gorgeous little pink sparkly thing :) It perfectly fits a phone, a coin purse and lip balm; which is all you really need in summer.

A lovely lady always needs some lovely new frocks for summer as well, so here are two newies. The gorgeous brown with jade green blossoms is a wonderful cut that reminds me of the most stunning Elizabeth Taylor in her hay-day. If I can look half as good as her in that dress, I'll be more than happy!

The lighter of the two dresses has been selected for me to wear to the upcoming cocktail party. The fabric is beautiful and screams Sofia Coppola's 'Marie Antoinette' at me, which I adore. Furthermore, in the changing rooms as I was trying it on my sister commented that I looked like a Barbie in the dress. I was instantly sold! I'll dress it up with some lovely pale pink heels and a flowery headband on the night :)

Fairy floss

Will Cotton, "Cotton Candy Sky" 2006

So I'm sitting here, treating myself to some delicious fairy floss. And as it sparkles on my tongue I'm left wondering..

a) Why is there no fairy floss flavoured ice cream? and
b) Why is there no fairy floss cocktail?

Why children? WHY?

Fairies

Clarissa, my fairy godmother :)

I love fairies. They can be magical, cheeky, seductive, sweet, mischeavous, kindly... They always have thier own unique personalities and abilities. While usually mermaids top my favourite mystical creatures, fairies come in a very close second. So it is not surprising that I have fairies littered across my room and house. Let me introduce you to some of them :)

More of an elf than a fairy due to his size, Charlie is a cheeky and fun-loving kinda guy :)

Isabella, a decadent dark fairy with a heart that shines like the moon :)

A fairy with a love of fairy floss, pink champagne and a bit of lovin' is Tipsy :)

Each of these fairies has been lovingly created by Conny Deylen who is a lovely lady and a regular at the markets I go to. Each fairy is unique and absolutely gorgeous. You can check out some of her creatures here.
