- Do you see my awful repair job? A super-glued pearly button had to suffice to restore symmetry -
Recent Charity Shop Snaffles
An unwanted Christmas present from Urban Outfitters - but one which has made my lunchtime a bit more fun this week.
Outrageous earrings from River Island - again, brand new and given up on.
A lovely Wedgewood cup to add to my china collection.
P.S. A Belated Happy Valentine's Day to you all. We popped over to see the Shrine of St. Valentine in Whitefriar Street Church. It's definitely worth visiting if you're around Dublin. On the 14th February itself, it proved a wonderful antidote and tranquil alternative to all the pink-tinged commercialism of his feast day. Not that I don't love that a little bit - I think now more than ever we need a day that reminds us to mark our love. And I couldn't get enough of people running around the town with all sizes of rose bouquets.

I'm so, so sorry to hear your Aunt's not well. I'm sending lots of love and positive vibes your way.
ReplyDeleteTwo beautifully colourfully outfits made even lovlier with the pimped up shoes. How cool in that lunchbox? That's enough to brighten-up the dullest of work days. xxx
Do hope your aunt is better soon. Love your recent charity shop finds. Am quite excited as am planning to visit two charity shops I've never been to before later on today.

Shoe repair is a quick fix I hadn't thought of! From afar, you really couldn't tell nearly as badly as if there were no button there. Cute outfits. Sorry to hear about your aunt, hope she's on the mend soon.
ReplyDeleteHello Countessa! I've missed your sweet face in the blogosphere as of late. I'm sorry to hear about your Aunt's poor health- I send her lots of healing Californian vibes with lots of love and sunshine!
ReplyDeleteLOVING the laced up brogues, and yes brilliant on added the ribbons. Must borrow this idea by summer.
