Aceo Friday again, my how time flies doesn’t it? This week I’ve got a silly little caricature of Marilyn Monroe, this is what happens when I have no real time for art.

This weekend I’m going to do a tutorial on how to do the bow hair so look out for that on Monday.

I don’t think there’s anything better than a good cup of tea on a cold day. I’ve just gotten some new lose leaf varieties and so I’m obsessed at the moment. Mmmmm. what are your favorite teas?

Anyway here is the third contender in my Casual Hairstyle Poll…

2 plaits! Very easy to do, stays in nicely but has lots of fly aways by the end of the day. This style is good because I can customize it depending on my mood with an alice bow or bows on each end, my only worry is that it’s *too* plain…

Thoughts?

Well back to work!

Currently this is my faaavorite outfit! Most of that has to do with the fact that it includes my awesome shoes! They were on sale, so I bought them and added flowers to make them Hime style. Much cuter!

I also found opaque stockings on sale a Myer for $7.50! And they are *actually* opaque.

James also surprised me with this belated “Un-Birthday” cake. He made it himself, how cute is it? Btw yes my real name is Nikki but I’ve been Violet online so long now that I prefer it!

Loooove it! It was so sweet and yummy, we could only eat a tiny bit because it was so rich.

This is just a quick snapshot, see I’m not glamorous all the time
It’s getting cold here in Aus so at home it’s comfy pj’s and jumpers all the way!

Ah I have the best boyfriend ever

So as most of you are aware I have been very lazy about editing my holiday photos! No more laziness!

Of course we have to have the obligatory landscape shot to show how pretty it was:

To be honest I’m not to big on birthdays… I mean wow I managed to not die for a whole year? Go me! I would much rather be celebrated for my achievements than my ability to not die

Look at my new pill box hat! I love it, James bought it as part of my present

Long way down! I was fairly casual on this holiday, more of a retro look than hime or princess. Fun style though!
I love over the top clothing but when you only have limited suitcase space it’s hard to pack more than one outfit!

We did *SO* much shopping. I had a blast.

See all this shopping?! Poor James took it upon himself to carry all my bags all day! What a gentleman! Ok this was slightly staged but that’s pretty much what it was like all day!

James’ Mum got me a Sally Hansen gift pack full of cool nail polishes and treatments, how nice!

One more landscape
Well I had a great time. Did you guys do anything fun this week?

Oh also I can’t remember if I already mentioned this but the second article I wrote on “Choosing a Logo” is up on WomenWiseMarketing. If you want to come read just clicky here.
