in the pink

happy spring day southern hemisphere!

A friend of mine is looking for some bridesmaid's dress inspiration. I posted grey and pink dresses at Threads... Let me know if you have any hot tips? xx

how can you hate on balloons?

I know a lot of us (and by us I mean you!) have been spewing hateful words on wedding pictures with balloons / cupcakes / mustaches / vintage furniture in fields, but can I just show you one more little local wedding? Remember over here in Africa we're not all sitting on the internets all the time pouring over wedding porn, we're busy hunting and gathering and grooming and training our elephants to ride around on. So things that may be old and over over there, can still be good and clean and fresh (tra-la-la) over here. Whatever, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves, they are so much more eloquent.

Girl has a lovely blog.

Photographers are pretty awesome.

have you seen her?

The little sunbather on the promenade

She has a friend, a dragonfly

But I like the little sunbather best

This is exactly how I feel, when the sun is out

I would like to bring her home to live with me

I miss my sexyredframe, I really do.

But I've been busy, very very busy doing something else that I love almost just as much.

It involves dresses and shoes and make-up and hair and lights and cameras and action!

Please visit me here if you like:

But one day I'll be back here more regularly, cause if a girl gets lazy with just one little blog, having three will certainly inspire her to get busy!

twilight

I love it.
The teenage vampire chronicles?
The books, the movie, the ones still to come...
I shamelessly love it all.


Hot young things looking moody and abstaining till they're married.
What's not to love?

So I also have a slight girl crush on K.Stew.
She's so pretty.


With such great hair!

And apparently cool and not trying very hard to please anyone.


She values comfort over fashion!

And commits to the parts she plays with gusto.


Wow that's a make-under.
But to be fair it IS a great copy of Joan Jett's coiffure and general style.


So I guess it's all part of the method?

Thank you Cassandra for turning my frown upside down!

eye candy

I'm taking a little break from our soap opera today, and thought I'd entertain you with some eye candy instead...
It also gives me the opportunity to figure out uploading images, sneaky sneaky.

This is one of my dream outfits of all time. I don't think it needs any explanation.



And here is Anne Hathaway, with whom I enjoy a love/hate relationship, looking abso-freaking-lutely gorgeous.



Ditto for Dianne Kruger. I never understood how she landed the role of "the most beautiful woman in the history of the world" (as Helen of Troy in duh, Troy). But I love the outfit! Not so much the date?



Both pictures are via gofugyourself.celebuzz.com, which I am seriously digging and constantly trawling!

Hope you have a fab Wednesday, and join us again tomorrow for the next instalment of our epic saga!
