school school go away


found my school bag. nowhere near what i was looking for, but it was on sale at sportsgirl for $20, and its rather spacey and handy. its a bit plain though, so i might hunt down some brooches and flowers i can pin on to make it prettier.

i also treated myself to some of that gorgeous gift wrap from borders i was raving about a few blogs ago, and its lovely. and my pencil case is a lovely little cltch bag i picked up in glassons from $15. its ruched and a suede-like material, and it cozily holds all my little bits and bots for school work (which i dont do very often).

i came about this close to buying a little charlie and lola money tin in borders today, it wa half price, but i quickly put it back on the shelf when i realised the little lock on the side was missing. what a shame.


they really are an adorable pair. it would be a better world if everyone and everything looked like what it does in charlie and lola land, dont you think?


after spending a good few minutes in the abc shop looking to see if they had any charlie and lola money tins there, i wandered over to forever new, which is australias excuse for topshop. everything is topshop inspired and i rummaged around the racks and came really close to buying a lovely tulle dress and a floral skirt, but i decided against it, seeing as i have to save for myend of year trip to europe. i even went to the travel agents today and the really helpful travel agent man gave me about a gazillion travel brochures and as soon as i have time, i'll go through them with theresa and cassandra. enough of that though, tios just making me excited.

just before the mothership and i left the shops today, we wandered into a little homewares store, and i bought myself a little maxwell williams teaset. its a tea for one set, and its got lovehearts and elephants on it. have i mentioned that i collect teacups before? no? well now i have. and this has just added to my lovely collection. i quite adore it. ive just googled maxwell williams, and turns out theyve got a wide range of lovely teasets that i can buy. im rather excited now!

school starts tomorrow. im not too excited.

but on the plus side, mcfly announced a sydney show, and its right in the centre of the city, at The Metro Theatre. Im very very happy. Fingers crossed that i get a ticket! It'd be lovely to get to see them live again. I remember the days when id cry coz i thought id never ever get to meet them. What a waste of tears.

must run. sleep is calling.
