Things I Love Thursday 19/7/2012

Welcome to yet another edition of Things I Love Thursday.  It’s a weekly feature where I rattle off all the things that have been leaving me tickled pink this week.  Before we get down to business, I will share an outfit photo with you:

I am wearing:

- Mint blazer (thrifted)

- Grey cable-kit sweater from Supre

- Pink beaded skirt (thrifted)

- Stiletto stockings (gift from Ross’s mum)

- Black and white brogues from Rubi shoes

- Owl ring (gift from Pernickity Pony)

-  Green hair bobbles (bought at a junk store ages ago)

-Bambi pendant from Diva

This Thursday, I Love:

- My cousin William.  Tomorrow is his second birthday.  I can’t believe that he is two years old already.  It really does feel like only a week  ago that I was snuggling him in my arms for the first time.  He’s grown so much since then, and I love him to bits.

- It by Stephen King.  It’s been giving me the creeps, but I don’t even mind because it’s such a brilliant book.  If you haven’t read it, do so immediately.

- Anjelica Huston.  She’s indescribably gorgeous.

- Treating myself to some fancy new underwear.  There’s nothing like a drawer full of new drawers.

- Goodnight kisses

- Vegetable soup made with fresh veggies.  I bought a bag of vegetables from the Violet Town market on the weekend, and used them to make a batch of soup.  It was the tastiest soup I’ve had in ages, and I think that was due to the freshness of the vegetables.  Yum.

- Winter air, which smells cold with a tinge of wood-fire smoke.

- Watching my brother and my boyfriend try to impersonate Arnold Schwartzenegger

- Being chosen to judge a colouring competition at work.  It was much more difficult than I had anticipated.
