Knitting.
I had a deadline to finish knitting this for my friend's brand new baby girl, Lila. Until yesterday bunny had only one arm and no ears...

I almost don't want to give her away.

Sewing.
To keep me out of mischief I made up this corsage kit from Nonesuch Things, although I had to chuckle when I read on the back it was 'an educational craft, not a toy', typical that I'd buy myself something meant for a child - I wouldn't want to challenge myself too much!

None-the-less I enjoyed the distraction and found the huge plastic 'no chance of hurting yourself' needle super cute, it will also come in handy for sewing up my knitting. The corsage now sits happily pinned to my Alice Temperley shopping bag.

Smelling...
of Lolita Lempicka First Fragrance. I don't normally buy a new scent by reading a description alone but this one got me and I had to try it. An true advertisers dream I liked the fairytale bottle and googled for more information.

I was promised 'A fragrant note of Liquorice combined with Aniseed, Ivy, Violet and Tonka Bean with the sweet rich notes of Amarena Cherry, Vanilla and Praline. This blend gives way to a sensual floral note with iris and Musk undertones. It is a subtle blend of sensations that stirs the senses.'

And I wasn't disappointed.

and wearing...
Rimmel's Lycra PRO Beige Style nail varnish. Love.
