It’s A Dirty Job

1 It's a dirty job sm

The things a girl will do to afford new shoes! Just look at this mess! Dirty clothes on the floor, stinky shoes left sitting out, wet towels on the floor and ewww…I’m gonna have to go get a mask and gloves before I go near that toilet!

But the shoes are worth it. Ultra high sexy babydoll pumps with optional stockings – yes, I said optional, so you get two looks for the price of one. Because they’re from fri.day, you know they’re beautifully made. They’re available at the new round of Uber, so you may have to try several times to get in, but they are truly worth the effort. You can always polish the sink while you’re waiting 😉

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

A Winter’s Day

1 A Winter's Day sm

I feel like I’ve been on the top of Santa’s Nice List the last couple of weeks. In addition to Christmas on 34th Street opening last week, the December version of Wayward Market has just opened the gates for even more holiday shopping.

While I don’t usually take wide angle photos, when I saw the Little Winter Cottage from 22769 ~ [bauwerk], I knew I wouldn’t be able to get away with just using a room of the house in my photos. It is just so perfect! It comes in both a snow-capped an no snow version, so you can use it all year round.

I started adding landscaping and external decorations, but realised the atrium couldn’t be photographed bare. So I had to fill it up, too. Which led to another set of photos, showing the interior. I was going to blog both outside and inside today, but I decided I will dedicate a separate post to the indoors. Stay tuned for that one in the next day or two.

I tried to create a picture postcard type scene; I hope I was able to convey the spirit of the season with this shot. I wish you all the blessings of this special time of year, the joy that can be found on a winter’s day.

The Fabric of Light

Image PeepSideshow Darkward5 Comments

1 by Chiana Oh2

It is an old and tested way to soften the light thrown by a lamp: toss a hanky over the shade. Not only does the light become more flattering, it can give texture to an otherwise glaring bulb.

This month’s theme for The Challenge is “Fabric.” The interpretation from by Chiana Oh are these lamps. With five colours to choose from, different lengths of the stem and full-mod for the size, there has to be at least one that will fit right in with your decor. They definitely bring warmth to my little cabin.

The Challenge begins on August 31st and you can find these lamps at a discount for the first week in the by Chiana Oh mainstore.

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

Lamps: by Chiana Oh – Hanging Hanky Light [Batik 5] (Red, Green, Purple, Pink) (available for The Challenge September 2015)
