ankle-type goodness

a couple of weeks ago I went shopping with my mate in my lunch break. We popped into the Camper store and I met these…

I like  – I want. Pity about the $380 price tag!

reading is sexy

I like you world just set up a online store and hooray for them! I’m very much looking forward to all of the everyday delights that they will fill the store with.  The first little gem that I have my eyes on is this reading is sexy badge – it will set you back a cool AUD $39.00 plus postage. Each of the reading is sexy brooches are unique, as you can see below with slightly different fonts and cuts.

keeping you clean

Burger and Fries

I recently brought myself a cute little apron from a local shop and I love it – but when it dies I want want of these!! Snappyshot hails from Southern California and has been sewing for over 24 years. Her designs are retro 1950′s, cute and full of fun. Snappyshop’s Etsy store has a vast array of funky little aprons to choose form. She says:

Some of my favorite images are from old advertising illustrations from the fifties and sixties. I especially love anthropomorphic characters, and am currently working on some simple happy kitchen items for lower priced aprons. I like the idea of wearing your apron out, but so far I’ve only worn them when I throw a party. I like to make my apron part of my outfit and wear it during the whole party.

Most of the items in the store are made to order. This apron pictured sells for US$47.00 – get in whilst the Aussie dollar is good.

racing birds

chinnychinchin_pigeonnecklace

Sydney based designers, Ruth Bellotti and Adrian Elys are the brains trust behind chinny chin chin. Wandering through their website is like finding a rusted tin box in the backyard that is full of treasures. There is a range of porcelain pendants, firebombed cars, stickers for unworthy causes and home brand tight ass greeting cards.

But the one thing that did catch my eye was the homing pigeon ring necklace. What a delight to have your very own numbered piece of pigeon racing history; stung up on a pretty sterling silver balled necklace! Complete with your order is a image of the pigeon who once proudly wore the ring and an individual profile so can feel at one with your new charm. Each piece will set you back a cool $49.95 plus postage.
