This weekend was phenomenal despite the fact that I was in rather excruciating pain, at least on Monday. I had a pain in the neck and even 800 mg ibuprofen wasn't cutting it. There was a huge sale at thrift town on Sunday and we were extremely successful. There is one particular orange vintage dress I am rather excited about. Last night I drank a bit of Finlaggan to dull the pain and sure enough today the pain is a bit more tolerable. I would recommend it if you are a snobby Scotch drinker on a budget. They actually get their whiskey from the excess production of two of Islay's best distilleries (Lagavulin and Caol Ila).

I am finally posting one of my recent acquisitions, this lovely purple butterfly blouse. I got this, among other amazingness, Saturday night when I got a huge free bag of clothes from someone whose rejects were actually better than some of the stuff in my closet. I ended up changing the shorts later as they are so annoyingly bunchy.
I took Bea to our favorite park today and we had such a great time. Much of the time we were just blowing bubbles although we did make a sand castle which she took much delight in destroying. I just love watching her play. She is such a daredevil but also cautious, thank goodness.
This photo is from our daily walk. I got this adorable gingham shirt with daisies at the thrift town sale last weekend. "5, 6, pick up sticks!"shorts: crimson and clover

I love Beax leggings... I would totally wear them. Sometimes, I look at 5 year olds outfits because im like "i would totally wear that" LOL.
ReplyDeleteps. I'll have to look into that whisky. I have a few friends who are total whisky snobs. Sounds like a great remedy.
First of all I love your outfit, especially the top! Second-- I can't get over how adorable your daughter is. SO precious.
ReplyDeleteVery nice outfit and cute child :)

ReplyDeleteYou are such an incredibly chic Mum! Everytime I see your posts I have to think of that when Bea is older, all kids at school will tell her that she has the coolest and most stylish Mum! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd her space leggings are so gorgeous! I need a pair, too, haha ;)
Thanks for following me, Lisa! Bea's hair looks exactly like the haircut I had when I was around her age (I think you commented on that picture on Facebook, as a matter of fact!)
ReplyDeleteHope to see you soon. I just got a job, so we should go thrifting in a few weeks.
The Blues are amazing on you!
ReplyDeleteAlcohol does the body good!
Bea looks adorable as always! I love the blue of her shirt!
ReplyDeleteWhoa that giant shovel thing Bea's playing with is so cool. Cute blue sweater, and I love Bea's space leggings (haha they're "out of this world"). Aww I hope your neck feels better!

Um, where do I get me some inter-planetary leggings? You really do have an awesome little lady, Clover is always picking up sticks on our walks too :) I love your blouse, so delicate and fluttery and how it almost looks like a romper with the navy shorts!
ReplyDeleteLove the top!
