early onset winter symptoms

It's raining fierce outside, and I've been being slack and boring. Here's to a my mid-year resolution! And that is: be more committed, healthy, loving, accepting, exploring, stylish, worldly Bella. I mean come one, this is the year I become who I'm going to be..

Here's to all of this

in love

I am completely and totally and utterly obsessed

Kirsten Dunst

Isn't she just the coolest? I love her!

Sunday, bloody Sunday (bloody wonderful that is)

Today I have been out and about - made a lovely trip to a food/craft/coffee/plant/organic market this morning with Maman, had coffee with Mum's friend and her gorgeous son (why are there no lovely, charismatic, fragile men in my generation I ask you?!), met up with Dad and R and C (pup), and journeyed home once again.

Once home Mum and I read the papers (well I revisited some old blogs - one of which, a curious seamstress, I have fallen in love with all over again), did some housework and finally finished off a lovely day with curry and a wee bit of Hawaii Five O - oh Alex I love you and your sex appeal!

I'm becoming a wee bit besotted with online shopping again. Dangerous I know, but oh so tempting - and CHEAP!!!

As well as revisiting blogs, I have been on Etsy, Strawberry Net (which by the way is absolutely fantastic), and I can't go without a bit of ASOS!

Now to leave you with a few pictures I picked up on my perusing the World Wide Web today. Can't have enough fashion inspiration!

PS. 200th blog post right here!!

new jewellery and a boring brain

Today I bought some new cuffs rather like these ones from Mode Rosa. The cuffs were quite a good buy from Miss Gladys Sym Choon ! Now I pretty much have all the bits and pieces to make up that outfit! Boring and unoriginal I know. Most buys were unintentional. The jacket and skirt are just staples I've had in my wardrobe for pretty much ever! Now all i need to do is find a bag and boots similar (they are aaaaamazing!)

Had a hectic day - won't go into details as they are rather nasty, but the cuffs and an amazing asian stirfry lunch made up for it. I'm in a VERY un-creative mood. As one could tell from my writing. All I want to do all night is eat Kopiko coffee lollies and sit on the couch in my pyjamas. Funny because I'm currently wearing rather a nice outfit on top - jewellery and a looovely knit cardi. Paired with horrible leggings and ugg boots. What is going on with my head?!

About to leave to pick my brother up from football practise - am definitely not changing clothes. If anyone doesnt like it, they can suck it!

Having issues with men I think - learnt (for the 567th time) that none of them can be trusted and all they're after is to get into your pants and then never speak to you again. No matter how sexy they may be, I am going to be a strong, independant woman and stay by myself no matter what! Not forever hopefully. But for a good bloody long time. Unless Alex O'Loughlin makes an offer of course. *SIGH*
