lauren may with love: January 2011

his peacoat pocket

i spotted these beautiful pieces last thursday at push pin in adelaide.

and its fair to say i fell in love instantly!

there were brooches for sale, but at the back of the room behind the counter this wolf head was in large scale on the wall. it was completely amazing. and if i wasn't saving i would have bought it in a second. if you're in adelaide definitely head into push pin just off gouger and have a look!

the lovelies are by his peacoat pocket. check it out!

underwater

if this was in my bathroom (which it should be), i would most probably be

a mermaid princess. but hey i'm not......so for now ill dream about placing it a bright bathroom with rustic blue walls and scented candles, and with a big bath and cedar

trimming on the windows.

i must have you.

i think it's fair to say that i need all of these things.

but most importantly the wreath.

i would feel much smarter and lovelier wearing that i think.

ballerinas and sheep

im just a little bit in love with this house. lovely colours!

my flickr

bright blue

some shots from near my parents house. the sky was lovely blue that day.

apple & bee

loving these clutches by apple & bee

i think i need one. or all?

at 84.95 they're not half bad.

but my account says they are.

my first photo

just a little more reminiscing for you!

this photo, i took in maybe year 5? it was the first time i looked at a photo

and really marvelled at the way things look in a shot.

i still like it. the scanner didn't quite give it justice though. the light is much nicer in real life!

when did you take your first favourite photo?

the brother

This is us, obviously being awesome!

the last couple daysish have been my big brother david's 23rd birthday! it was yesterday here in oz but today in america. We miss him so much! but he's having an amazing time with an amazing girl.

he's been a super big brother, he's pretty good :)

so happy birthday season brother! stay classy!!

an apple a day

today i have these lovely photos to share with you.

an apple a day has been a favourite blog for a while now. her photos are so whimsical!

emerson merrick takes beautiful shots, at her families holiday house (above) AND she works as a florist. sounds perfect huh? although she shares all the fun and stress of working with flowers! i think you should check out her blog though, and look through her photos on flickr. i love the photos of the house at elmwood are my favourite, the photos show all the seasons that the beautiful house visits.

have a lovely day!

i will hopefully have a decent post up for you tomorrow.

i hope you have all had a lovely week!

take her for a ride

i have way too many photos of these wildflowers!

im off to melbourne today. so excited

and remember, 50+ followers and ill hold a giveaway. a good one!

packing

packing takes its time!

i think i'm in dire need of a mary poppinsesque suitcase!

prada me up

i have been lusting after these beautiful things for quite a while now.

they look so comfortable, other than being so cute and shiny and lovely!

they also come in a few different browns, black, and i saw an odd pink a while ago.

at $680 a pop (20%) lower than the original price, i could quite easily buy them.

thats if i wasn't going to melbourne tomorrow.

so lovely readers, who would love to buy me a pair?? hey?

otherwise, if you've seen any similar, for cheaper, PRETTY PLEASE let me know where.

and speaking of melbourne, i do head there tomorrow for 5 days. I'm thinking i'll take

my computer, so i can blog about my adventures and all. I'll make my mind up tonight.

and good news for you all, i am going to try and find some nice lovely things for a giveaway

that will happen when i reach 50+ followers. lucky you! we're at 47 now i think, so

if you're reading and you like my blog, please follow, who knows, you may win!!

ill post details about the giveaway when i get back, thats if we're at 50!

have a lovely day everybody. im going to pack, catch up with my bestie for melbourne talk

and cook myself a nice healthy dinner!

home sweet

loving this house just a little. i think im missing lush green. the sun has burnt my poor garden!

found my new favourite flooring! and i love the fire wood in its little place

i would totally sit here and sew in a dress

the selling point for me would definitely be the garden. its huge!

and its so wild but beautiful at the same time.

i can imaging filling vases with bright flowers and resting them on wooden tabels

*edit : a few people have asked about where this lovely house is.

it's about an hour away from london, at suffolk, england.
