A Week of Love
Fun Love quotes
Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that.
-Michael Leunig
You know it's love when you want to keep holding hands even after you're sweaty.

“Charlotte: So how are you?
Carrie: I'm good. How are you?
Charlotte: Great.
Carrie: I told Aidan about the affair and he broke up with me.
Charlotte: Trey and I never had sex on our honeymoon.
Carrie: You win. So. Should we get more coffee or should we get two guns and kill ourselves?”
- Sex and the city
I always just hoped that, that I'd meet some nice friendly girl, like the look of her, hope the look of me didn't make her physically sick, then pop the question and... um... settle down and be happy. It worked for my parents. Well, apart from the divorce and all that.
- Four Weddings and a Funeral
That's why they call them crushes. If they were easy, they'd call them something else
-Sixteen Candles

a week of LoVE
Style Icon: Jenny Cavallari
' LOVE Story (1970)' - one of my favourite movies that I love to curl up and watch when Im on my own... ive seen it so many times!
The story can seem a little cheesy these days and the acting quite bad haha
but the lovers Jenny and Oliver, are so likeable as we watch them fall in love (infamous lines "Jenny, for Christ’s sake, how can I read John Stuart Mill when every single second I’m dying to make love to you?") and their differences, support of one another ("love means never having to say your sorry' )
and of course the tragic ending ....'What can you say about a twenty-five year old girl who died? That she was beautiful and brilliant. That she loved Mozart and Bach. The Beatles. And me.'
Grab your tissues people as this movie will make you cry!
The scenery of Boston and New York is an added plus and the music score very beautiful!
One of the most inspiring things for me is (Ali McGraw) Jenny Cavallari's preppy style, totally worth watching just for the fashion!
All her outfits are wearable now, 40 years later!
Beautiful camel wool coat, cloche hats and opaque stockings with cute mod style flats, flirty skirts and turtlenecks, trench coat, white jeans with navy tee in Summer - its a classic american look that will never date - even her simple wedding day suit with a silky ribbon in her hair - Just perfect!
she's definetely one of my style icons!
you can see the trailer here - go grab it on DVD, you'll love it!

Just a minute in January
Reading - Just finished 'My family and Other Animals' by Gerald Durell (Pip's book club) - thoroughly enjoyed it...i wanted it to keep going!!
Im also reading 'How to raise boys' by Steve Biddulph
Drinking - Water....i need to send myself reminders, im so bad at drinking water. I also had my first taste of 'V' Energy drink a couple of weeks ago ...no gush of energy though.
Eating - Fresh figs from my parents garden and I currently have slow cooked Lamb with Potatoes and Peas in the oven (dinner).
I also made Chocolate & Almond Toffee bars today
Making - Dress tags for an order, Birdy Napkin holders for my shop and trying to catch up on my illustration challenges.
I also want to start crocheting granny squares for a winter throw - not enough time in the day!
Watching - 'The City' on MTV (is it really a reality show?? its way too staged/perfect) , The Australian Open...January is all about Tennis!
Loving - currently loving this slip dress and ive been loving this silkscreen print for a while now...
