Polly Dolly- Bridesmaids



Bridesmaids



I'm playing Polly Dolly over at Danimezza ...it's super fun so you should totes play along!


This weeks theme is bridemaids. I've noticed more and more lately that I'm putting up multiple outfits for my Polly Dolly. I clearly am incredibly indecisive in choosing anything but this week i feel justified. My bridesmaids would wear alternate colours. I've seen the yellow/ grey combination around a lot for bridesmaids and i love it. i think it's gorgeous.


So if I could do my big day again (to the same husband) this is what I would choose.

Polly Dolly- Sweet Ride

Sweet Ride



I'm playing Polly Dolly over at Danimezza ...it's super fun so you should totes play along!

I loved this week's Polly Dolly. I'm on the search for my perfect bike at the moment. I know what it looks like in my head but I'm finding it a little challenging to find exactly what I'm picturing.

But I love the idea of spending breezy summer afternoons on a bike. Love.

Pinterest Obsession...



I found true love....and it's name is Pinterest.


It's everything I've ever wanted and I'm obsessed.


For those who don't know it's basically an image sharing website but oh my it's so much more. The images they have are amazingly beautiful. They stir up your creativity, make you think and most of the time just have you let out a big *siiiiiiiiighhhhh* with adoration.

While the husband has been working nightshifts I've found myself staying up way too late, stretched out in our bed, pinning and repinning and telling myself  to "go.to.bed" but I don't. I just love it that much.

Just so you know how right I am here are a few of my favourite images of late. I could have gone on forever but I restrained myself.



















If you want to check out my boards then have a look here. And for goodness sakes- join up! You may have some sleepless nights but your world will be way more beautiful...

Adventure





I think I'm ready for an adventure. I'm sick of day to day life. I'm ready for the husband and I to just go and do something crazy. Live a little, go somewhere we're not entirely sure of, try new things, get scared and hold each others hands throughout it all.

We're just not entirely sure where that is at the moment. We have a lot of options available to us next year and we have no clue which one to chose. It's kinda scary but kinda exciting too.

Well I guess we just gotta take a deep breath, say and prayer, hold on to each other and take a massive leap. Fingers crossed...





Hallelujah...

September is here. So glad winter is over for another year....bring on summer :)

Polly Dolly- Work it...

Work it...

I'm playing Polly Dolly over at Danimezza ...it's super fun so you should totes play along!


This week's theme is work. So I've twisted it slightly and made it not where I work now but where I want to be working and an outfit I'd like to be wearing.


I would love to work from home. I have about a million different idea of what I'd like to do from home but the idea of having a home office appeals to me greatly. Don't get me wrong I love being a youth worker but there's just something a little exciting about the idea of working for yourself....I think I'd be an amazing employee :)


So here is my Polly for the week. My apologies it's a little crowded this week but I got so excited because there was so much I wanted to fit in! I am a self confessed stationary addict- I buy way too much of the stuff. I'm obsessed. But how can somethign so beautiful and practical be considered a problem. Right? Right.


Anywho. I found a gorgeous old school phone, a beautifully pristine white desk, a cute blue chair and my dream computer for my home office. I also have a refillable plastic cup because I'm just not a hot drink girl and a notebook to write all my ideas down.


So there you go. One day I know it'll happen...it's just going to take a lot of hard work.

Today is strange...


Today is weird. I'm not happy. I'm not even really sad. Just weird. Somedays you just get in a funk and no matter how hard you try you just can't get out of it.

My friend Shelley agrees with me. She's in a funk too. 

I hate it. It's just weird and gross.

Oh well. Here's hoping it's all gone by tomorrow.

And Breathe....







We've been so so busy lately. I don't know why or how or even with what really but it seems every weeknight and all weekend long there is stuff.

Stuff to go to, stuff to do, people to visit....just stuff.

Not that I'm complaining. It's been a fun year so far but I swear we haven't stopped.

So anyway. This month the husband is on night shifts. Which means he will be sleeping all day. Which means we have a clear calendar for the weekend. Which means I am free to do whatever the heck I want! WOOOO!

I have so many things in mind. Housework stuff. Craft stuff. Cooking stuff.

But most of all I want to do "relaxing stuff". DVDs. Books. Magazines. Blog reading.

I plan to do not much at all this weekend and if I can help it I won't be leaving the house. Unless it's to maybe take this bundle of cuteness for a walk.



So there it is. I'm going to take a weekend off all the craziness and just live.

Catch ya on the other side :)

Polly Dolly- Come Fly With Me...

Come Fly With Me...


I'm playing Polly Dolly over at Danimezza ...it's super fun so you should totes play along!

This week's theme is "High Flyer" and I love it! There's just something so exciting about travelling and dressing the part can be just as fun! We have a LOT of family interstate so we find ourself travelling a fair bit for quick weekend trips to see the fam and I love it.

I've got all the essentials for a trip. A trashy mag, some water and chocolate, lip gloss, a massive bag to chuck it all in and warm enough clothes to survive the artctic air conditioning on planes.

Now I've just got to go pack my bag for our next trip :)

Polly Dolly- Pleat Away

Pleat Away

I'm playing Polly dolly over at Danimezza and this week it's pleats!

I'm not the biggest fan of pleats. Well that's not true....I do like them...I just struggle to wear them. They always look weird and grandma on me and on other people they look amazing.

So I cheated a little and didn't really do massive pleats. But there's still some in this skirt.

So Play along...It's fun!

Polly Dolly Tee love

Tee love

I'm playing Polly dolly over at Danimezza and this week it's the printed tee.

I love printed tees. I think half my wardrobe is just made up up of printed tees I have so many. I love wearing with jeans or skirts or cargos....however. I just love them.

Which is why it was so hard to just create one look...so I though "stuff it"....I'll make three!

Polly Dolly Wedding

I'm playing Polly Dolly over at Danimezza. It's super fun and this week it's all about weddings!
 
I got married 2 and a half years ago now. I loved my wedding day and everything about it but if I could do it all over again I'd probably change a few things.
 
I'd have a super simple garden wedding with fairy lights, food and freinds. I'd have a simple comfortable dress, sandals and flowing hair with a nice headband,
 
And of course....what would a wedding be without cupcakes ;)

I've been thinking about holding a garden party for the husband for his birthday in May. I'm really not sure what to do but I love the idea of it.


The key would be to not make it too girly like some of these images probably are.


I really like the bottom one...how they've thrown some old couches in there.


Well... we shall see!


Wish me luck and if you have any ideas just let me know :)
