Straw Flower Hat

This is my dream hat! I found it today in a vintage shop, it didn't have a price tag on so I took it to the counter praying that it was for sale and it was! Yay! This is an old Jigsaw dress which was my Mum's. She's really my main influence. When I was growing up she either wore long, figure skimming dresses of the kind I now sport, or fitted flared trousers and a plain top and always look effortless. She still dresses like that now in fact. She's always had a few simple bits of silver jewellery that she wears all the time and I'm the same but I prefer gold.

Rose and I didn't end up going down to see my brother yesterday. Instead we stayed home and watched Miss Congeniality and then Collateral. If you haven't seen Collateral see it soon! Tom Cruise at his best I think. Not to mention he's uber sexy in it, grey hair and all. We managed to munch our way through a pizza and tub of Ben and Jerry's. Good times. My brother might be coming down on Monday as Rose has a day off school and we might go to the zoo!

I just noticed how funny my pinky finger is in the second to last picture - take a closer look! I really like hands, not to sound strange or anything! I like people who use their hands to express things when they're talking. 

Ramble, ramble, ramble. It's funny how some posts turn into huge amounts of words when you don't intend them to. I'm sorry I haven't been able to show you shop pics as I said I would, even though it's been a totally hectic week I haven't actually been in the shop as much as I thought I would!
