I haven’t done proper victory rolls in ages ~ in fact, the last time I did them was in Perth for this outfit shoot.  I like how these ones turned out; for my second go at this hair style I think I did okay! 

Erm….  

And now I seem to be suffering from a random case of writer’s block.  This doesn’t happen to me very often, but I don’t have anything else to say!  > o <  I suppose I could ramble on about violets and how they are one of my favourite flowers. 

Actually, the masses of violets around my garden are one of the things that instantly attracted me to our house ~ I love the violets, moss and cherry tree.  Add some roses, lavender, snowdrops and hydrangeas, and what more could you ask for in a garden?   Not much in my mind anyhow.  ^ u ^

Okay, enough rambling.  Bye then!

  1. The victory rolls look great!  I love that cardigan-coat, too - it looks lovely and warm as well as being a unique item of clothing.

  2. Thanks Katie ~ yeah, I forgot to put in the details of my jacket; I got it at the Camden markets in London. I paid 75.00 pounds for it, which is super expensive in my books{!!!} but I absolutely love it to bits, so it was well worth it. : )

  10. Thank you Nelly. : )

    Actually, the garden is not really a garden yet... > <' I just showed you the nicest corner! All the rest is grass with a few random shrubs which I am planning on clearing out.

    The good thing about apartments is even if they are small there is still room for a few pot plants if you like having greenery around. African violets make great indoor plants ~ my grandmother grows stacks of them on her window sills!

    I bet your Mom's broach is really pretty ~ I love inheriting jewelry from my Mom too. : D
