Oh My Darlings Penpals and my lovely dress!!

The lovely Melissa over at Oh, My Darling is hosting another great swap. This time it's penpals. This is definitely a dying form of communication, and thats kinda sad. I used to have a penpal when I was younger but we met and became friends through comp so stopped sending letters. So now I am all grown up and would like some new adult penpals. This is why Melissa's swap is so great, you sign up and Melissa will group you with three other bloggers as a Dear Darling group, and you all become penpals. So if you fancy sending and receiving some letters and getting to know some new blog friends why not sign up too.

So now that I have my 3 lovely new penpals I need some fun stationary. So I thought I would do a quick etsy search for some Daisy Inspired stationary.

These are my favourites:

I love these simple cards by Monkey Mind Design 09.

These Lucky Bee Press card's are simplistically beautiful

Inkspot Workshop

These Apple Made cards are at the top of my list of ones to buy at the mo. I love the 'just saying hi' bit, it's so sweet.

Bella Card Creations

Exquisite Inks

Styren Designs

Lastly how totally totally cute is this little card. I would love to receive a card like this for my birthday, it's such fun. Get them from Pango 78

So last night was my Mum's birthday night out and we went to a local tiny italian restaurant, which we all love. And I wore my new dress, my beautiful dress that made me break my 30 for 30 no shopping rule. It was well worth it though.

Isn't it pretty!?!? I don't mean to brag but I am rather chuffed with my £15 bargain!

Dress: Oasis

Shoes: George

Necklace and Bracelet: Gift from my Aunt

Back to my 30 for 30 pictures tomorrow (hopefully!)

30 for 30 challenge - Day 4

Ok I have already failed miserably at the 30 for 30 shopping ban and I am a very very bad person! I am so sorry (but I don't feel that guilty, lol). But really I could not resist that dress I saw yesterday, seriously it was so so pretty and being in the Oasis sale, double discounted, from £75 to £30 to £15 it was just too much! I can never afford stuff in Oasis and I rarely find stuff I like (I'm really fussy, honest!), in my size and at a price I can/am willing to pay. So I tried the dress on and caved once I saw how pretty it looked. So here it is so you guys can see why I had to break my ban, seriously had to, I couldn't just leave this beauty there! I promise to add another 4 days at the end of the 30 for 30 to make up for it, Promise!

So what do you think? Was it worth breaking my ban? I know it would not have still been there in a month, at that price! Its kinda a modern take on a 1920 flapper dress, don't you think? I would never usually buy a dress like this, so fancy, lol and expensive but I thought bugger it for a change. And shall be wearing it for my Mum and Dad's birthday meal out at the end of the month.

Ok onto Day 4

Simple outfit as I worked in the day today, so came home and got dressed into normal clothes which is very strange for me, as after work I usually just slump in my dressing gown for the evening if I'm not going out.

Outfit made up of 5+24+28

5. Tommy Hilfiger

25. Be Bop via Tia

28. Mustang

Sorry the colour is off in this one, had to fiddle with it coz of some dreadful lighting! And Im on the phone as Jon phoned just as the timer was about to finish, so I just posed and went with it! Not bad!
