A splash of colour





This weekend was absolutely delightful. Such amazing sunny, warm weather, 26 degree heat, clear skies, and a beautiful city to enjoy. I had lunch with my friend Sophie at Icebergs, the North Bondi swimming club. The view was stunning, wish i had taken my camera with, and the food was tasty. This is my super cute new dress which i've been unable to wear due to it's length. I finally hemmed it, and figured what a perfect dress to celebrate the new warm weather.

Necklace: Vinnies
Shoes: Some strange shop in Hong Kong
Cat: my sweet 3 legged kitty Catastrophe

The men in my life

It's been a lovely weekend as per usual, spent with the lovely Ellen. The weekend was busy, and involved a lot of cleaning, which was i have to admit i rather enjoy. But even with our cleaning and trips to the hair dresser and RTA, we managed to find our way to Vinnies. we are hopeless little things. I am glad we have no willpower though, else i wouldn't have found the most gorgeous little porcelain dolls.

We all know the wonderful Mr Charley Chaplain, with his cute little moustache, constantly fashioning a cane and bola hat. And hopefully all of you also know the delightfully silly Laurel and Hardy, famous from the 20's to the 40's. I now have dolls of those three wonderful comedians, thanks to Ellen's observing eyes.



Taking a little outing in the park.



Oliver Hardy in all his handsome glory.



Stan Laurel looking awfully cute.



The adorable Charley Chaplain. He's just great!


I think that the Laurel and Hardy dolls are a set as they have the same pants, coat, face painting ect. Whereas the Chaplain doll's face is not quite as intricate, and his pants are a different colour. But i think these three look so wonderful together, and currently reside on my books shelf :)
