Hi everyone, I have had
Right this selection of photos are not really up to date (no FOF for me today) but I think they will show you how I am enjoying the warmer weather:
Black and white dress from Hospice Shop and Vintage black
necklace from the Presbyterian Support Shop in St Andrew Street, Kapow slipper
shoes, hair bow, belt and Bonds tights, all retail
Folk art plaque - handpainted Kereru (NZ wood pigeon) on
Kauri dated 1940, $3 from Presbyterian Support, Mother and Ducklings swimming
happily in a puddle near the harbor
1980s polyester dress from Toffs $2, worn with Melissa
pink shoes and tights gifted by a colleague. The hat is modern but it was
at the St Vinnies for $2.
1980s
polyester dress from Toffs $2 worn with modern cardigan found at Hospice shop
for $5, bracelets both thrifted. Kapow slippers (already been worn so many
times they were worth buying retail for $10)

So, these few snaps give you
an idea of what the weather's been like. 11yo turned into a 12 yo a
couple of weeks ago and we went out for a lovely lunch with her and her best
friend, then on to Aramoana for a frolic in the sand. I have gone
"duck" mad having seen several mother ducks with their broods trying
to cross the main road - hence the duck photo.
That's all folks, I detect a
disturbance in the internet so must press "publish", hope you all had
a great Halloween and a very happy Friday ;-)
Bye

PS 12 hours later and still trying to upload this blog post....at this rate I will be blogging monthly!
Oh I love all your lovely outfit posts - its rather lovely not to have to wear a coat every single day isn't it! How amazing is that Kereru painting? I love it - can't believe it was only $3!
ReplyDeletePerhaps the internet coverage is one reason why we shouldn't move to Dunedin?? That's about the only negative I can think of! Love all of your frocks & accessories, especially the last one with the tights. There's just something about baby anything.....I'd be following the duckies around like a mother hen too! Hope you have a lovely weekend. Xx
ReplyDeleteI love your frocks and you team them up so well! Hope you have a great weekend!X
ReplyDeleteIt's great to see you in short sleeves and sunshine. I do like to see my blogger buddies enjoying the lighter months when I'm shrouded in darkness! Shorter dresses really suit you, you've got lovely legs! xxx
ReplyDeleteLove the monochrome pleated dress and the splashy blue/yellow print dress.
ReplyDeleteWe have had a very sluggish and temperamental internet connection lately too, it's driven me mad, so I can sympathise! xxxx
Love these two dresses, the second one desrprende with this print as much light as spring ... It's great that you're in short sleeves ... sun is shining here, but soon will be cold ... Happy weekend dear friend.
ReplyDeletelove the black and white dress
ReplyDeleteOh sweet we have a terrible time to with the internet connection.......drives me crazy.
ReplyDeleteOk what a fabulous catch up......loving the little black slipper shoes...very cute.
The black & white dress is classic.......wonderful for the sunny days to come.
Hope you are having a great weekend.
Love v
You are so gorgeous - I especially love the black and white dress with the flower. And I am duck mad too - there are several duck families on campus where I work and I love when they cross at the pedestrian crossing! Hope you are having a delightful weekend,

What a bummer that you're having trouble with your internet. I love the white frock with yellow flowers. It looks fabulous with the blue cardigan.
