Amelia Pontes has been doing this thing for the last few weeks called 5 Lessons Learned and 5 Favourites and I really like it as a meditation on the week gone. I might respectfully rip her off and do my own reflection here… and I think it would be awesome if lots of beautiful, self-aware…
Pre-order a fat necklace – don’t miss out!
If you’re sad you missed out on a necklace, don’t even worry about it – I’ve opened up pre-orders! You’ve got until next Monday (October 18) to place an order for the colour of your choice. Horah! Place your order over at the shop right now to avoid disappointment :D
New camera!!
We bought a new camera the other day! I’ve been pining for a DSLR for years, and when we came across a good deal (posted by one of our Twitter friends) we basically rushed out to get it! It’s a Canon EOS 1000D, just an entry level camera, but I think it’s a good place…
Minaudières: because it’s a nice looking word.
I’m always in awe of artists who can master pencils the way Marco Mazzoni does. I don’t know much about this artist but I was really affected by this piece when I scrolled down Google Reader and found it posted on Phantasmaphile. This is a page from the world’s most mysterious document, the “Voynich manuscript“.…
Fat necklaces are back in stock.
The shop has been restocked with fat necklaces, 19 of! They come in four colours now – shiny red, frosted cupcake pink, frosted white and the original shiny black. Make sure you’re quick – last time I sold out in half an hour. Don’t worry if you miss out this time, I aim to order…
Links across the bloggiverse
I haven’t done a links post in ~forever~ but there are a few things on the internet that are REALLY REALLY AWESOME and I want to share them with you. THE US SURGEON GENERAL SAYS YOU CAN BE FIT AND HEALTHY AT ANY WEIGHT! Like Nick just said on Twitter, how has this been out…
Don’t dream it’s Oct-over (groan)
If I sneak in and deposit these desktops right here, no one will have any idea that they are five days late…. right?! Unfortunately, no. I know you’ve been waiting and I’m so sorry for the delay. My sister got married and I’ve been doing all manner of things but now October can officially begin!…
#dittowatch: From Evans to my wardrobe
I got my parcel of Beth Ditto for Evans stuff on Friday when I was actually at my mother’s preparing for my sister’s wedding! Nick called me up to tell me especially, pretty cheeky or caring husband? HMMM! I tried on my stuff last night and was super excited to take photos so I could…
My sister’s wedding
My sister got married yesterday (which is why the desktop isn’t up yet, sorry!) so I want to share some photos with you. Where my wedding was more unconventional in its styling, Michelle and Jordan’s wedding was more traditional with the big white dress and veil as well as dark suits for the groom and…
Sometimes it’s a struggle to manifest fance (manifance?)
This past few weeks I have struggled. Not just with blogging but personally too (and I’m waiting on some blood test results that might return an outcome I’m NOT keen for.) Lots of bloggers seem to cover up all the bad bits and present the shiniest and most palatable version of themselves to the world,…
