{The Thrift Collection} Giveaway

Recently, I bought this awesome Beige Trench Coat with pretty frills and round hem as well as a few other goodies from {the thrift collection}

Pippa collects vintage treasures and sells them on her blog.  This local lady from Durban is quite a sweetheart and when I received my parcel from her, I was super excited! 

I could tell she had taken such care and love puting my goodies together.  Because of that, I want to give her blog a Shout Out so that all you South Africans give her a visit and make a purchase.

Such care and love went into her delivery complete with an awesome recipe.  What a gorgeous wee touch!

The Royal Wedding Photos

I sat in my armchair all day, glued to BBC Knowledge on telly watching the Royal Pomp and Ceremony.  I followed the #royalwedding on Twitter all day, tweeting at the same time. It was brilliant!  I thoroughly enjoyed myself.  I got all sorts of skeef looks from The Boerewors for being such a Royal Geek.  He doesn't understand!  I surrounded myself in royal history and high fat snacks.  Oh I know I'm terrible. 

Kate's Gown by Sarah Burton had a very Grace Kelly feel to it covered in French Lace.  She looked breath-taking.


Princess Beatrice and Eugiene.  What was Bea thinking?
