Ma petite fille Ivy

It's so cold. Freezing even. I simply do not cope with anything other than warm sunny days where I can roam around in sunfrocks and flip flops..Winter makes me miserable. Even I thought I looked ridiculous last night as I headed to bed in 2 singlets, 2 woolen jumpers, trackpants, wooly socks and even woolier scarfe. I could barely move all night for the ten layers of blankets. I knew I was cold when I even took the fan off high. (You might recall my must-have-the-fan-on-high-no-matter-what quirk.)

It seems it is possible to brave the cold in something much more chic though - Ivy went out shopping with her Daddy and got to try out her new beret and knee socks (Janie and Jack) from Sweet Ms Krysta.



It's been a slightly exhausting week - one of those where you just put one foot after another, with sniffly nose and an endless to-do list, and hope it all works out in the end. The fact that it's now August does not help - Ava's birthday looms and clouds my thoughts, making the days just a little more difficult than usual.

On a happy note, Kate bought me a pinhole camera which makes me smile every time I see it - I can't wait to play with some film, it's been forever. Here's us girls hamming it up in the photo-booth last week.

I also, thanks to Krysta once again (that girl knows how to shop), have developed a Juicy charm fixation. Seriously, these things are SO cute..I can't stop Googling and my list of must haves is growing by the day...

I was very restrained though, here is what I have so far..


Ballet shoes for Ava..

and this mirror 'cause it's sweet. I have a thing for pretty mirrors.

I have no doubt that less here but I can't resist them - I've seen a bluebird and I'm doomed.

I'll be back with client photos tomorrow - I've had some lovely shoots lately.
