Hey buddy.

I went to a llama park today. Yeah. A llama park. Anyone got any llama questions I'm your girl. It was actually quite nice walking around in the lovely sunshine looking at cute furry things. There was a reindeer that was born yesterday.
This dress was only a fiver and it's actually proven to be a pretty good buy. As I'm 5"9 I find it so hard to find Summer dresses that are long enough to wear without tights or leggings and even though it doesn't quite look like it in the photos, this dress is just long enough. This problem seems to be getting worse every year and I really don't know why. I never thought of 5"9 as being ridiculously tall but it seems that if I want to find a Summer dress that covers my backside then I have to look in the tall ranges in shops which carry none of the key pieces and tend to look pretty frumpy.
Another moan I feel like getting off my chest is the total lack of good quality workwear on the high street (yeah I finally got a job that I have to wear posh clothes for). I've searched high and low and all I've found is a couple of dresses in H&M and one perfect jacket from Topshop that took me five purchases and returns to find. All the usual places such as Next (for workwear, I don't go in there otherwise) have nothing but cheap- looking shift dresses with nasty grey tartan patterns on them which I can't bear. I know this makes me sound like a huge snob but I just want to see some good quality, well- cut workwear which I don't think is too much to ask for.
Anyway back to some more positive things, I love my new sandals. I like the price even better.

Why didn't you join her.

Well hasn't Spring sprung my dears. I found another naturey area to take photos. Only two dog walkers at this particular location which isn't too bad. Again it was the ol' take pictures of flowers cover- up.
I found a really good little vintage shop in my town last week and despite taking a good long time nosing through the gorgeous pieces they have in there I could only take home one thing and I chose this black lace cardi/ jacket thing. Its from the 80's so the shoulders are a bit structured which doesn't help my already man- like frame but I came to the conclusion that it was too pretty to pass by and I can cover any boulder- shoulders with my hair. I will come up with any justification when there is an item of clothing I want involved.
I found another day jacket in a charity shop this week which is absolutely beautiful. Unfortunately my sister wanted it as well and we ended up having a proper row in the middle of said charity shop to the horror of the old biddies working there. We decided to share it. Except her idea of sharing is hiding it in her room and feigning ignorance when I ask her where it is.
These two rings are from Primark and H&M. See the theme. I like to wear them together and give myself zoo fingers.

Isn't it ironic that he liked you and...

These are a few items that I have in my Etsy shop right now. There is loads more but you will have to go take a look to find out what! Thanks to my sister for freezing her arse off in a field for these photos.

I mentioned before that I was kind of expanding my Etsy shop to include clothes as well as jewellery and these pictures are a bit of a clue as to the first pieces that are going in there for you lovely people to spend your hard- earned pennies on. I've had quite a good time finding all of these pieces and I really love each one. Unfortunately I can't fit into a lot of the items I found which is crappy as I love the Armani jacket and the quality of it is unbelievable. It might be a good thing though otherwise more of the clothes will end up on me rather then on you.
I have been in London this week a couple of times for job- hunting- related things and I thought I'd pop into Primark to see what's about. They have some pretty nice things but the best part of my mosey round was seeing a harrassed lady dragging two daughters in with her whilst one of them had her nose wrinkled in disgust moaning that Primark, "Even smells cheap". Quite hilarious coming from what must have been a 10 year old in ripped jeans and a shiney pink puffa jacket.
I bought some pastel purple nail varnish which looks really cute on. What I didn't realise is that it's glow in the dark. I'm not sure I have any need for glow in the dark varnish.
