{March 17, 2008}   Bananas In Pyjamas

Not much to post about this weekend, other than the fact I spent most of it in my comfy PJ’s. I lounged around the house gettting over my cold and generally pottering about.

Ok, so I did go out on Saturday but I didn’t take any pics of my outfit (as I always forget) but here is a quick rundown of what I wore.

- Dark wash slim fit jeans.
- Leopard print open back swing top (with a sensible vest underneath of course)
-Oversize cashmere mix black cardigan.
-Flat knee high boots.

Anyhoo… back to my PJ’s. Most of mine are in fact patterned cotton flannel beauts from Primark. At £4 a go, you can’t really go wrong. (The ones in the picture below are not from Primark, but are very similar)

This weekend though my PJs consisted of jersey harem pants (soooo comfy), green plain cotton tee from Urban Outfitters, and the oldest most comfy grey hoody I own.

I actually feel a little sad that today is Monday and I actually have to wear ‘regular’ clothes again. I am having withdrawl symptoms from my pjs. Oh, well good job it’s a 4 day week!



{March 8, 2008}   All dressed up and nowhere to go…

Well I do have somewhere to go… Sardinia in April and I already have dresses that I want to wear out there. They are:

*Striped Sundress from Topshop
stripedresstshop

and

*Laura Lees Boat Dress also from Topshop
lauraleesboatdress

They are currently languishing in my wardrobe whilst I stick to my main staple of jeans and other other cosy items. I reeeeeally want to wear them now.

I probably could wear them now with some clever layering and thick tights, but I find the layered look does not suit me. I just don’t have the layering knack, and end up looking like someone who is into their second trimester and should be offered a seat on the tube! Not really the look I want. So in the mean time they remain unworn and just lovingly looked at and occasionally tried on .. again and again.

Fingers crossed for some warm weather in April.



{March 5, 2008}   Gocco-ing Mad

The severe lack of posting has been due to the fact that I am obsessed with my Gocco PG-11 printer.

Shopping for clothes has now been replaced by wanting and craving Gocco accessories and ink. I want it all!

Anyhoo… just to show you I haven’t been sitting on my laurels here is my handy work.

*Customised Moleskine notebooks

*Plain greeting cards

*Splodge card

As you can see, I only did one design - a fountain pen - as my tester. As it turned out quite well (I think), my mind is now brimming with ideas.

Have a look at all the other Gocco-ers out there and their wonderful creations.

I’m off to Gocco some more.
