Hello, Again.



Wow, it’s been almost 3 months since I last blogged. Terrible time management on my part, obviously! :( Hopefully that super cute photo of Lulu helps to garner me some good will. 

In January, I flew to picturesque Melbourne and watched several Australian Open matches with Bunny, and four of my lovely friends. It was a great trip. Relaxing, and revitalising. Shopping, eating, laughing and sloth-ing for one whole week. I loved it.

After that break, I snapped straight into Active Addie mode. On my plate at the moment is a wedding to plan, a new job to start, and hopefully a house to buy as well? I have sorely neglected my little stores - Ditzy Granny Vintage, Frim & Fram, eBay, and I must attempt to make up for lost time!

Despite so much going on, as you lovelies know, I always find time for shopping! I have been keenly growing my Hermes addiction. So much so that I am now officially waiting on my first birkin, a pink one no less! ♥♥

My wardrobe has blossomed so much these past months that I now have two new clothes racks and several accessory holders installed in my humble abode. Alannah Hill, Review, Zara, Topshop, Salvatore Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton and of course Hermes, to name a few, have been top of my buying list.

It is of course no wonder that my own wedding planning has only extended to the fashion side of things as well! My favourite wedding is hands down Nicole Ritchie and Joel Madden’s. Her Marchesa gown was ethereal, and they looked so gorgeous together. So many years on, and I still think it was the most beautiful celebrity wedding ever.

Bunny has already bought a preppy blue Prada suit + shirt ensemble for the solemnisation. Me thinks I might just wing it in an Alannah Hill dress that I will accessorise up. For the dinner reception, I am currently deliberating between Oscar de la Renta and Marchesa for my gown and I have my eyes on a pair of Valentino heels to match. Bunny would of course suit up in Tom Ford. 

The venue has been my biggest headache so far, the date we have chosen is far too popular and completely booked out so I might just do a Carrie Bradshaw - a quiet Town Hall solemnisation in Sydney. Followed by an intimate dinner for 200 in Singapore a month later. 

I have about 40+ comments to reply to now, so gonna scuttle to do that now. Much love to anyone still reading my little site in cyberspace.
