Break from the norm ....

There now will be a short break from normal transmission ..

There are no outfit posts at the moment - as I am currently off work sick again :'(

So I thought i would take this time to reminisce a little. The other day (May the 6th to be precise) was 4 years since Gra and I got engaged - at the Grand Canyon ... at sunset.. yes how romantic huh :D

He was acting a little peculiar that day (more than normal, i should add ;P) but i put it down to the fact that he doesn't "do" heights. We trekked the canyon in the day, had a nice picnic lunch, then went back up to the top of the canyon to watch the sunset.

After the sun had bid it's farewell for the night, we walking back, it was so peaceful and quiet and just so breathtakingly beautiful, I was thinking to myself "How nice it would be if he proposed now"

Turned around and he was getting down on one knee .. I couldn't believe it .. I began to cry .. he asked me and the rest as they say is history!

My engagement ring (sorry for the shabby polish job!) And having a meal at a restaurant near the canyon - you can tell Ive been crying!!

After we parked up back at the hotel we found a restaurant and had a celebratory meal! ... the ring we didn't find until we were in San Fransisco - not for the want of trying - or to Gra's dispair as I tried on about every ring possible ;P

This also means of course that it is four years since we took our trip around the west coast of America .. I soooooo want to do it again someday!! (If any of my American blog buddies want to invite me over lol)

I've always had an infinity with the USA - even from when i was small .. my mum used to say i was born in the wrong country!!


Now and Then.

The other day whilst perusing the blog world I stumbled across The Clothes Horse

page. She was doing a flashback Friday of some of her blog friends ... and it made me want to do one to :D So here you go!

Once a poser, always a poser hey?

(Dontacha love my sailor dress, slippers and feather duster?? ;P)

And finally seeing as I haven't been out for what feels like ages - apart from to the doctors - I have been looking at online stores .. I never really buy from them, as I am very picky when it comes to trying things on .. I'll love the look of them... just not always on me!

Anyway these are a few things I would like for the summer months!

Flip Flops and a Cowboy hat!

Rock T's (for the summer concerts I'm attending)

Play suits and Harem cropped trousers.

Cute cardies and Bandeau tops.

Dress's, Dress's and More Dress's :D
