Sweet Sundays

I swear I start every post with- Wow, I havent blogged in a long time! Bad blogger, blah blah blah. But I truely have been so busy! Sam and I have moved in with my dad to save some money for a deposit for a house, and our trip to America. It has been hard trying to squeeze all of our things from one small house, into one room! We have had to take over the shed and spare wardrobes! And I'm still buying clothes...I think I may have a problem....

I'm  not going to try and play catch-ups, but just let you all in on what I have been up to lately. And I will try to be more of a consistant blogger from now on....hopefully!!

Yesterday, a whole bunch of friends, and hot rod clubs got together for a BBQ down at a house in the south of Adelaide. There was lots of food, drinks, sunshine, good friends, and of course, nice cars!...but don't ask me much about them, I'm still learning! I only took a few photos of the cars on our way up. Once we were all set up, I was ready to sit and chat with my lady friends, and play with their sweet kiddies.

Here are a few snaps from our trip to Sydney after the wedding...

Elevator faces

Oxford Street

We had a ball! I really enjoyed the vibe of Sydney and I hope to go back soon! There are so many spots we didn't get to go to, but will next time.

Here are a few places you have to check out if you are planning a trip to Sydney

• Retrospec'd Clothing- I loved this shop and spent up big...but it was worth every cent! Quality reproduction clothing that is cute, comfortable and not overpriced! The red striped knit I have on in a few photos is a firm favourite of mine at the moment
• Hyde Park- our hotel was a stone's throw away from Hyde Park and Sam and I walked through it a few times. There was something about it that I just loved...a big park with beautiful old trees in the middle of a bustling city
• Oxford Street- was interesting to walk up and down, with a whole lot of shops, cafes and gay bars! We popped in to a few vintage stores but the prices were a little hefty for me. There was one place with the most uhhh-maay-zing selection of bakelite brooches and bangles, but starting at $500- a bit much for my modest budget!
• Porteno's Resturant and Gardels Bar- FABULOUS food, cocktails, music, service, atmosphere, boys behind the bar...all I'm saying is GO! GO! GO! I personally guarantee you will fall in love with this place
• Drey Rolland Band at Rocklily- I never thought I would see a band in a casino that I would like, but this group of talented and cute people were so great! Highly recommend!

Our first dance...can't remember what song it was! Ooops!

The day was all that we wanted and more. Relaxed, fun and full of love and laughs. Although I don't think I'll be doing it again any time soon!

Move over Moxie Minx- Powderpuff Boutique's in town!

I have been soo busy the last few weeks, I just haven't had time to do a decent post on anything! Only 10 days til our wedding, so things are a little busy at the moment.

Any way, I just wanted to take a moment to tell all my gorgeous followers, and any other lovely people who are stopping by this little ol' blog, about my friends Paula-Jane's clothing lable. PJ is not only a dressmaker extrodinnare, but a shimmying go-go dancer, full time mum to her gorgeous austistic 4 year old son, Rocket, and a fabulous lady all round! I don't know how or where she gets her energy and enthusiasm from, but she has bucket loads of it, and it makes me jealous! ; )

Paula launched her vintage inspired clothing lable back in 2009, under the name Moxie Minx, but over the last year or so, has been forced to change Moxie Minx's name, thanks to a big bully sanitary item company. This has cost Paula alot of time, stress and money! But nothing gets this talented lady down! Paula has just re-launched her lable under the new name, Powderpuff Boutique.

If you like, please, check out her brand spankin' new website HERE, and support a hard workin' momma! Or got and 'like' Powderpuff Boutique on facebook!

These are a few of my favouite items, all designed and made by Paula-Jane

Tourist Playsuit

Evita Two Way Tie Top

Garden Tea Frock

Sunday Market Crawl

Yesterday, Sam and I got up at the crack of dawn, and headed off to a swap-meet at the Greyhound Racing Track, in Angle Park. There was lots and lots of car stuff, but nothing for out '52 Pontiac, and no pretty things for me! That was until we were leaving and Sam spotted a cute picnic basket. Yay!
After having the mandatory swap-meet breakfast (bacon and egg sandwich...mmmm), we decided to head off to the Brighton High Boot Sale. We came away witha few treasures, so all in all, it was worth getting up so early. Here is what we scored....

Picnic Basket- $5

1950's Decanter- $2

Bar Set- $2

And my favourite find of the day......

1950's atomic lamp $8!!

It needs a bit of work- the fibre glass shade needs to be screwed back on, (thats why it looks a little lop-sided) and I might have it re-wired, just to make sure it's safe.

I also got a gorgeous 50s/60s umbrella with a bamboo handle (I love bamboo), and Sam scored a great hand tooled leather wallet, both $5.

So, did anyone else score some weeked bargains?
