What I Wore Wednesday - spring florals

Spring is here and what better way to celebrate it than with a vintage floral dress?

Anyone else excited about the final twilight movie?! I'm no twi-hard but am a big fan who has never actually seen any of the movies in the cinema. Team Edward all the way!!!! Which team are you on?

Hoping to share a sneak peek of our new house which goes unconditional tomorrow ... stay tuned.

What I Wore Wednesday & TV Couples

I am a disgrace to the state of Queensland. Today was one of those mornings where I delayed getting out of bed. I then had a shower, put pants and a top on for work and took Rocky for a quick walk. When I got back I realised I'd put mud on said pants and had to change. What then ensued was a frenzied twenty or so minutes to come up with this ensemble which I wasn't even happy with but had to get my butt out the door as I was due at work in four minutes. Luckily I only live about a five mintue drive from work and it's no biggie if you are late but I don't like being late. I only realised a couple of minutes after sitting at my desk that I am draped in blue. Terrible Queenslander I am! 

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, head here.

In non-related news, how cute are Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson?

I am a major Dawson's Creek fan and have always had a bit of a soft spot for Pacey. Pacey and Joey would have to be my favourite all time tv couple closely followed by Blair & Chuck and Bones & Booth. Who are yours?

Treasures

It's Sunday evening and I'm sitting in front of the heater watching Masterchef. It's been a while since I've linked up with Sophie's weekly flea market finds and thought what better time than after a weekend where I found some lovely treasures.

First find, inspired by the adorable Zara is this cute little milk glass trinket container. I now have four peices of milk glass so I guess I now have a collection? lol

I then picked up this hippy 70s top from a garage sale with a couple of other items. It's one that needs to be belted but looks like it has never been worn and is very unique.

On Friday while on my regular lunchtime trip to Vinnies I spotted this beauty in the fancy dress section. I happily handed over my three dollars and it has now been washed and awaiting its first outing. I think I might wear this to my auntie's seventies themed 40th birthday party in a couple of weeks ... if I can wait that long!

Finally, Black Caviar wasn't the only winner this weekend. I won this gorgeous trophy from a garage sale for three dollars and only realised that once I got it home and gave it a bit of silvo treatment that is in fact quite old! From 1939 to be exact. It is currently housing some of my favourite costume jewellery.

Hope you all had a fabulous weekend

 p.s. notice my new blog design? Big props to Felicity of Pursuit of Felicity - she was great to work with and I can highly recommend her work!

What I Wore Wednesday - 70s Maxi and Sequins Baby

The weather here in South East Queensland has been shocking lately and in no way could be described as summer. Fine weather for Australia Day definitely does not look promising!

For this week's outfit I teamed a 70s vintage maxi dress with a sequin vest and a ex-handbag-turned-clutch.

from boring bag	to cute clutch

What is your take on sequins? I think you either love them or hate them. I'm a lover and have my eye on a few things on asos at the moment. Only trick is where do you wear them? I got home and asked the husband what he thought of my outfit - he thought I looked mumsy. I can't win with him!! I'm either bloody mumsy or am wearing a doiley or tablecloth.

Speaking of mumsy ... I'm going to be an aunty!!!!!!! My twin sis is due to have her first baby in late July and I can't wait. I especially can't wait to find out what the sex is so I can buy cute little things. There is no denying that everyone is hoping for a girl - there is so much more variety and cuteness for girls.

Happy Australia Day friends for tomorrow and a big happy 38th anniversary to mum and dad and a huge 40th birthday wish to my workmate Kristin. Have fun!
