NEW EARRINGS

I think I have a new favorite pair of earrings.
My guy gave them to me the other day and I must say
they're a perfect match to my new espadrille wedges.
Call me lucky. *smirk*



Song of the day:
The Barker Brothers - "Hey little mama"

ITCHY FINGERS

I'm in a good mood today.
My man can drive again so we went to one of my
suppliers to get some flowers and I felt so lucky to
find that they got my favorite exotic flowers in red!
I also got goodies for my new project, 1940's style
hair accessories for vintage style weddings.
I can't wait to start, I got itchy fingers!

Made my hair up this morning but this time it's even
higher and I combed my fringe up with the big roll
instead of make it into a pompadour.
I made two big rolls this time with so called rats and
added my favorite yellow flowers.
I also wear my new red polka dot espadrille wedges
and the yellow top, I feel tall and I love it.




Perfect items and inspiration for classic looks.

WOHO!



Guess who's happy!
I recently found out that my childhood favorite
movie Tuppen is now released on DVD!
I'm gonna try and get it while I'm in Stockholm.

Just listen to this...
The year is 1944.
Cederqvist comes to a small cloth factory to see
how
the all-women employees can work more effeciently.

At the beginning he is greeted with suspicion and his
efforts at courting the young ladies are futile.
But as soon as he buys himself a car it becomes much
easier, especially since he has the power to relocate
people to an easier line of work...

POLKA DOTS? FLY AGARICS?

I'm up early because of pain, I have an ear infection.
I was an "ear child" and had ear infections every other
week, it stopped when I was about 19, I have had pain
sometimes after that but I was always fine the next day.
Not this time!
Right now I'm having a clove of garlic in my left ear.
It actually makes me slight hungry... *smirk*


I was in a silly mood last night so I painted polka dots
on my nails.
Guess it looks more like Fly Agarics. *lol*

AND THIS IS ME TODAY



Yet another 40's hair style, I used one so called rat
on one side, a comb on the other side and made my
fringe into a pompadour.
My guy said I look like Betty Grable today.
And yes, the top is made by me.

Perfect party song for the evening:
Ken Parker - "I can't hide"

I'M WALKING ON SUNSHINE

Hello ladies!
Me and my guy went for a little shopping spree today.
I'm currently boycotting Primark because they use
children younger than 8 years old as labor and that's
not really kosher in my book.
So we went to Matalan, I haven't been there for some
time but I always ending up finding very cool stuff
with a very retro feel and good prizes, like today.
I walked out of there with two sexy pairs of polka dot
espadrille wedges and a very sunny top.
My guy treated me to one of the pairs.

OUTING

Me and my guy had a really nice day yesterday.
We went to St. Albans by bus, it took us 90 minutes,
by car it would have taken us about 25 minutes.
(I can't wait until my guy can drive again.)

We had lunch at an Italian restaurant, all you can
eat for £5.95, so we did and it was very delicious.
Do I have to add that I didn't have any room for
dinner last night? *smirk*

There was also a French market going on with fresh
garlic, dried fruit, handmade soaps, candy apples and
bread that smelled like it was baked in heaven.



Finds of the day was dried strawberries for me and my guy
got himself a new leather belt, both at the French market.
I also found a black leather handbag from the 1950's for
only 50 pence.
It's very plain but I might pinstripe it cool.
