I am REALLY hearting Tuesday today..

...for 3 reasons

~ we all slept a little late, so Shannon made me a coffee before he left for work. There is nothing like having a flat white made for you for breakfast on a Tuesday

~ I tried on the cutest shoes for spring/summer, and decided I have to earn them. So I'm going to clear out my closet and list items I no longer wear on eBay - I have a stack of work/pre-kids clothes I can't imagine ever wearing (or fitting!) again. If I sell enough, I will buy the shoes (and I will have a de-cluttered closet!) :)

~ after checking the front door (many times a day) for special deliveries from the post man for the last 10 days, my copy of Style Statement finally arrived. I first saw this book reviewed in an "Oh Baby" magazine that Mum sent over from New Zealand last year, and since then it has popped up on numerous websites/blogs I read. I decided it was time to ditch the frumpy Mum routine, and sort out exactly who I am. Have any of you worked your way through? I'd love to hear about your journey in discovering your style...

I heart Tuesdays

I'll let you in on a little secret - I don't like Tuesdays. Never have, they are the longest, dreariest day of the week. But I am going to try....try and find something that makes me smile every Tuesday. Today it is these gorgeous ranunculus - I simply cannot resist ranunculus, the way they grow any way they please, curving and dipping as if they are wild and free from the floral law that says "we must grow up with straight stems"......if I was a flower this is what I'd be.
