An Autumn Date

Tall One and I went on a leaf-crunching date to the Animal Yard today! Also, Saffers, isn't this just the best year for public holidays? I am loving these long weekends. x
PS: 'Scuse the dress wrinkles. Ironing is not my strong point.

Just a couple 'o crazy cats

So, this guy and I celebrated our one year Pandaversary about...one month ago! We actually had a few false starts (which we won't get into - here or ever!) so it feels alot longer than a year to me. We commemorated the occasion by watching a Bryan Adams DVD - sounds pretty tame I know but the night ended with a neighbour knocking on the door telling us to turn the ruckus down! Who can resist a little "Summer of 69!?" I was singing into a hairbrush at this point - stone sober I might add. I have already wished this cat but I decided this milestone had to live on the blog as well. So happy happy to us! We are off to the Midlands next weekend to get our leaf-crunching romance on. x

The Car Boot Market!

Tall One and I recently flogged some old stuff at the Greyville Car Boot Market! This was not pretty, vintage stuff, my friends. This was RANDOM old cr@p. I'm talking toilet brushes, half bottles of moisturizer, burnt candles and my brother's old shark posters. Believe it or not, we pretty much sold it all! Over the years, my bro and I have been storing stuff at my parent's house and it was getting a bit ridiculous. There was so much old junk that we weren't using and it was time to just get rid of it all! We did donate loads of it to charity but we also decided to sell some for the experience. Ok, and also for a little extra loot! This market is CRAY CRAY. The first time we did it, we were SWARMED with crowds and it was actually a little frightening to be honest. Ours was by far the cheapest erm, boot! We decided to try and beat the crowds the second time and rocked up in the dark at 5am but again, people rushed up to our car with torches asking, "Have you got pots, pans, shoes????!!" Once we'd calmed those folks down, we unpacked our wares and got to selling and had a great day of sales. The whole experience is so hilarious, we may just do it again! So if you have any junk you wanna offload, call us! We will take it away and flog it. These are just a few snaps of some of the things I spotted there. x

New desk cheer!

Word! I just wanted to show you guys a few cute things that are cheering up my desk. Most of it is thrifted and a few bits are from Typo. I printed the polaroids with 250 Gram and I'm in LOVE with them! These guys will print your instagrams for four Ronds a print so it's an affordable treatski. Oh, I also printed a book with Printstagram but I wasn't wild about the quality. The 250s are the way to go. Make your own book! Last but not least, the yellow bunnies were a gift from Candi. Jon is convinced I'm gonna contract some horrible disease from the phone but I'll disinfect that sucker!

Caryn and Tiffany's romp through the reeds!

Holla! I am ALIIIVEEEE! But you will know that if you follow on me on Instagram where I obnoxiously enthusiastically "post" a lot there these days! I swear my iPhone takes better pics than my friggen Canon sometimes. There has been a fair bit I've wanted to blog lately but time, it runneth away from me. Anyhow, let's catch up starting with these happy snaps! My second to last post was a "Trash the Dress" shoot I did with Jon's sister, Caryn. Well, her daughter, Tiffany, has just returned to South Africa after six years in Scotland. The four of us went camping this weekend and on a whim, I decided a little Mother-Daughter shoot was in order! This was a totes spontaneous ramble through the reeds but I think the pics are so sweet. And don't you love that the Black Labels made the cut! I can't tell you how much I lucked out with his fam - they are the nicest people ever and I am not just saying that to clock up brownie points! After this, I'll share some snaps of some recently thrifted bits and pieces - stay tuned. x
