Spring Peek

The daffodils are peeking out, the weather forecasts constantly tease me with promises of sunshine and temperatures above 10 degrees...so it was a pleasure to see beneath the heavy winter coats, a peek of spring colour!!


I've heard the daffodils are particularly nice in Sefton Park, has anyone been this month? Has spring sprung?!

Double Rainbow

Does this count as a hipster twin? Well they're certainly twins and who says a rainbow can't be hipster? 

A double rainbow sighted on the Seine, oh la la. It was quite a sight to behold, everyone stopped on their tracks and turned to look. Can you see where the rainbow plunges into the water? I've never seen so many people whip out iPhones, Blackberries, SLRs so quickly...and then scuttle for cover from the rain as soon as the rainbows were gone!

These photos were from the trip to Paris for New Year. Crossaints, cafe breakfasts, champagne, chic 6th floor apartment, double rainbows and a bit of sunshine, ahhhh...take me back already.

Twins

Long time no post! Been busy twin hunting you see. It's a worthwhile and fulfilling hobby.

Tight Lovers

The one item of footwear I am lacking, despite the ridiculous number of shoes I packed, is a pair of sturdy, flat boots for day-to-day wear. I have many boots, knee high boots, ankle boots, mid calf boots, but all are high-heeled and highly impractical when I have a whole new city to explore!


I just haven't been able to find a pair that is quite right. Instead, I am getting distracted by accessory items and swooned when I spotted these tights. Who can say not to lovers tights? The boots are alright too hey?!

Liverpool Landed

Hoorah!


Arrived a few days ago to a lovely apartment in the city centre, but alas, no time to shoe perve and draw, too busy IKEA visiting, flat-pack assembling (hex key abusing more like), bank account opening and phone number organising! Have only had a chance to look around the centre of town (i.e. the megalopolis that is Liverpool One), but looking forward to exploring the city more in the days to come. 

The search for employment begins tomorrow, so I thought I'd post up some Christmas cards I sent out to firms before I left Australia. These were fun to make, only challenge was to stop myself eating an inappropriate amount of candy canes whilst making the cards! Hoping to pop around to some firms and say hello in the next couple of weeks. Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
