These are some pictures of my dog Ortiz's birthday, it was back in june but i just found the pictures dad sent me online so i thought i would share.

This is what she got for her birthday for her and Grommit the dog in the background to share, it gets really sunny and hot in out backyard so this will keep them cool come summer.

And this is her birthday burger, she had to share it with my brother though, how that went down im not sure but i reckon she proberly just got to watch while he ate it : )

I miss my doggies very very much, i will be doing a meet and greet for you all to get to know them sometime next week.

New Pandora bead and my bracelet

I was far to excited to see the postie yesterday as i was waiting with great anticipation (also known as looking out the window) for him to push the mail through the slot.


This is my final birthday present that is actually from my auntie. She sent me money and i decided since my mum didn't get a choice in any of my other presents i told her to go to our local jewelers Occasions Jewelers and pick me up a new Pandora bead. Between her and the lovely sales lady Karen they decided on this:


I was very excited to open my parcel and find this little bag, considering it was a surprise i had no idea which bead they had picked.

But here he is my little new addition to my bracelet, i laughed so hard when i saw this little guy his is a little Kangaroo with a joey in his pouch. Very Australian and i dont think i would find this in my local UK Pandora store.

This is my bracelet I'm wearing at the moment, i actually have 2 silver ones with a vast mixture of beads which i have got over the last 2 years. But i decided that due to me traveling and my insurance not being enough to cover them i would leave most of the back home.

I would be crushed if i ever lost any of these as they are all significant and have a special purpose.

These ones are:

• A blue glass bead to add some color.
• My silver dog, she is my first ever bead and reminds me of my dog Ortiz.
• My guardian angel which my mum bought me when i moved to Sydney for college she is here to look out and over me.
• My Treasure chest, my best friend bought me this for my 18th birthday along with the Chinese symbol for friendship.
• An A well its for Alex.
• My little suit case, which was my reminder to save for my holiday, now it reminds me my life over here is a holiday.
• And lastly my roo.
• I have it all on a Pandora leather bracelet.

I love Pandora, i even bought my mum one for Christmas last year after having mine for years. I think there a awesome present for someone because then when you cant think of something to buy them you can always add a bead. Also it means you can spend as much or as little on one as you see fit.

This is how i wear mine right next to my watch.

You can find all these beads and more on the Pandora website http://www.pandora.net/

What i got for my birthday!

Over the weekend i headed to Manchester with my boy. Due to the fact I'm Australian my family are all back home. They sent me some money so therefore we shopped all weekend.

I was very spoilt this year so please don't judge on what i bought.

Here it goes:

This was my big pressie from my mum and dad. I really like the Toy watch range but never in a million years thought i would get one. Thank you so much.

I went to COW, i really like this store. I find such interesting stuff there. I don't own much but i enjoy simply looking.

This time though i bought this cute little "old lady" (so my bf tells me) bag, its so nice such good condition.

I also got this cute cardie to, fits so wells and makes me feel about 6 again.

I also ventured into Topshop, I found this beautiful coat in my size which was on sale! I also picked up this cute crop top that i had already seen online. Its lovely and the flowers a leather. Check it out on there website!

I also got to go to the Manchester fashion market, i love a stall called Woodchip Boutique. I got 2 dresses, this is a really pretty sheer one with long sleeves, so good for winter and summer.

My second dress is this lovely blue one with white spots and a white frill.

I currently Au pair for a family and this is what i got from them, its the duckie Cath Kidson wash bag. Its the large one.

My wonderful boy surprised me with this beautiful copy of peter pan (I'm a total fairy tale freak) and then he told me i had a choice of a bead for my Pandora bracelet or to go to build-a-bear, i chose build-a-bear. So this is Huggie!

I did get a few other bits and pieces, but there my main things.

What do you think?
