the flu, thrifting and latest buys


Even though one had the flu, then gastro at the tail end, one still
found the energy (only just) to thrift this '50s compact...


two vintage cadies and a vintage dress...


a set of vintage cat ornaments and vintage salt and pepper shakers...


... and a 1960s handbag. :)


It was my dad's birthday and this is a closeup of his wrapped pressie.
I wrapped with world map wraping paper from Zetta Florence.



I am going to purchase these canvas Dr Martens tomorrow.

This is my new lunchbox I just ordered from Lark.
