Fifi Lapin

A new fabulous boutique for Fifi Lapin. So-very-cute!

Coveting

Thank you for all your well wishes, I am still home resting but feeling much better. I thought I'd cheer myself up by creating a little list of things I'm coveting right now:

Diary - I love new diaries, is it a little early to be thinking about them just yet?
Tray - it's the birch trees that wins me, and that bright green.
Purse - I love all the designs here.
Chocolate fish - so cute and I really feel like a little bit of chocolate!
SLR - actually going to be mine as soon as I can leave the house!
Top - love the graphic print on this.

What are you coveting right now? I'd love to hear.

Poor Me (or I hate the Lurgy!)

Not even pretty spring bulbs can cheer me up much at the moment. I have the dreaded lurgy (well it was until it morphed into a chest infection with hideous cough, YUK), four days off work, two trips to the doctor, one sick boyfriend, one party and one concert missed......so sad. Surely the end is near!

Thanks for listening I just needed a moan.

Trees

I would love this new print from Good Shape Design for my lovely boyfriend Rd. I think this print is so perfect for him 'cause you couldn't find a person who loves trees more. Plus it looks pretty cool.

Stories

I think these new Popular Penguins are fantastic and love that there are a few new and modern titles in the mix. Ever since I moved into my little flat I’ve been feeling the need to curl up with a good book, but with them being so expensive these days, and only limited time I’ve read four this year…. absolutely woeful! So my plan is to pick up a few Penguins, High Fidelity, Love in a Cold Climate, and Breakfast at Tiffanys and get re-acquainted with that fantastic feeling of being lost to new (and loved) stories. If you have any other suggestions on what to read I’d love to hear them.

I Wish

I wish I was in this picture, sitting on a beautiful beach under a glowing warm sun gazing out onto the brilliant turquoise horizon! I wish... instead this week I've been so absorbed by work, I haven't had much time to think about anything else. I promise to be a better blogger, but for now I wish you a wonderful weekend!

Ahhhh...Spring!

YAY! Spring is here......not so yay I spent the day in bed.
Sadly I am a little allergic to all the blossom in the air.
However there is plenty to be excited about:

the longer hours of daylight and warmer days
I have my eye on some new prints for my flat a lovely Alyson Fox from here and one from Betsy Walton
the new Real Living looks a little interesting
Vampire Weekend Live at the Wireless
all the new Poppies for Grace designs

Oh and I have been meaning to mention my lovely new blog banner! I am so pleased with it and have to thank a very clever friend of mine. He's available to to banners and any other designs you may need, check out his website here, oh and his recipes are fantastic!
