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 birthday 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! XD 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.

I love Sylvanian Families.
Ok I know this is fairly childish but sometimes I like to play with toys. Oh come on you have to admit that being a kid was pretty fun!
These are some toys I got in Japan, the rabbit (named Ichigo) was from a series called “Sylvanian Families” that I had a lot of when I was a child. I thought they had stopped making them but apparently not! Everything else came our of a vending machine somewhere in Akihabara.
Here they are in their box:

And all set up:
I love the crazy detailing on everything, I mean even the sandwiches have the fillings painted on the side. 
Man I wish my picnics looked like this!
Mmmm giant strawberry cake.
So do you guys like anything silly and childish like this or am I just a bit silly? Personally I think that sometimes when the rest of life is stressful it’s nice to have something simple.
Don’t get me wrong I’m not playing with these guys every night in my mum’s basement but I do watch Judge Judy after work to unwind! What do you guys do to relax? Do you collect dolls, toys or Sylvanian Families?
Loooove it! It was so sweet and yummy, we could only eat a tiny bit because it was so rich.
Ah I have the best boyfriend ever 😀
