Ideas For Your Inner Stepford Wifeyness!

The Gorgeous Paula & Tille modelling Daisy Star Aprons

Daisy Star in Shebeen Chic

Loving the colour combinations!

I actually have this one!

If like me you're fond of cooking up a storm in the kitchen but you've just come home from work and you've forgotten to take off your office wear/vintage guna... YOU NEED ONE OF THESE!!!
I don't mind admitting that I'm a very messy puppy when i cook (why must tomato sauce land on my front when I'm standing 4ft away at the sink?) having tormented myself with destroying many a perfectly clean outfit it is now ingrained in my head...put on your Apron!!! These beauties are gorgeous and completely handmade in beautiful fabrics.
Now I look perfectly immaculate when my hubby returns from a hard days work... except for the piece of uncooked spaghetti sticking out of my quiff...
Also available for your little arty, baking mini-me's
Available from www.daisystar.net

Great name!

Super pretty

With my apron & one of these I could concoct the perfect afternoon tea!



Once you've thrown the flour, baking powder & icing sugar around with wild abandon , whip of your Apron, breath a sigh of delight that your outfit is spotless and then place your butterfly cupcakes on one of these
I just love this new venture from Me Auld China
This is such a fabulous idea using matching and mis-matched vintage crockery to create beautiful tired cake-plates.
Me Auld China also hire out cake plates for special occassions and weddings...they even offer to Pimp Your Plate!

Both these amazing new venutres will be displaying at different markets in Dublin in the next few weeks, check out their websites for details.

And remember...Christmas is sneaking up, start planning early

My Current Fashion Crush!


Loving the necklace



So many looks...so many colours...



Causing a new found appreciation for sweater clips around the world



Super Cute and Girlie

If you look up Glee online one of the first things to pop up is fashion, particularly Emma Pillsburys' fashion.
I am not alone in my lurve for this doe eyed anti-diva and her penchant for a quirky twin set and pearls; the whole world loves this ladies style!!!
If the Stepford Wives had a playful side their wardrobes would have looked something like Emmas.
To summarise, it's vintage with a twist, or another way to put it, vintage that has been pulled through a rainbow and plonked into a 21st Century High School!
Inspired by Glee I've been wearing lots of combinations of blues/pinks and reds, Yellows and purples and beads and baubles galore...subtle it ain't...but it makes me smile!
I'm certain that we'll be looking out for vintage sweater pins, vivid necklaces and pretty cardis on our next buying trip in May.
Start singing those recessionary blues away and let out your inner Gleek!!!
