Shopped till we dropped!

I am a very happy, but exhausted girl after a fab weekend in Wellington with four of my best girlfriends. Such beautiful shops, and we stayed in an amazing restored Victorian villa at the end of Oriental Parade, two minutes from town. We shopped all day and danced all night!

And yes, I did wear heels, and yes, my feet are paying the price now!

Lovely Lindi

What a lovely surprise I got today when I checked our letterbox - the most gorgeous 
Lindi Kingi sent me a bracelet from her new range. She knows how much I love her jewellery (check out my previous posting). Thanks Lindi, you made my day, I LOVE it! This bracelet is a beautiful pink/red, but they also come in purple, turquoise, blue & green!

I was quite proud of my amateur photography effort, but if you want to see some amazing professional photographs check out Vela Images - they are responsible for one of Lindi's latest photo shoots - so clever.


PS: I'm hopping on a plane to Wellington tomorrow morning for my Girl's Weekend - so excited! I'm not sure if I will have access to a computer down there, so if you don't hear from me, don't worry, I will be back soon with news of all the fab shops I've visited.

Pretty Patterns

When I was a kid I loved to draw, used to carry a sketch pad around with me, and draw all my toys. Every Christmas my Mum would buy me a huge Doodle Art poster, which would take me most of the holidays to colour - I loved them. When I saw this gorgeous colouring book by Beth Gunnell it reminded me of how much joy those colouring posters brought me. Now I have three young daughters, all very creative, so I'm going to need 3 copies of this book.
