We love silhouettes

Vintage or new, on jewellery, books, paper goods and soft furnishings...silhouettes are a striking and simple design feature.

Plus, the word "silhouette" is pretty lovely, don't you think?

We love Saddle Shoes

Seriously Cute (have a look at these)

So I found a great DIY to make myself a pair of

off the charts cute Fifties Saddle Shoes at Bleubird Vintage.

As it is end season sale bargain time

I thought ha this will be great I'll wear

these till it gets too cold and then I'll wear them next season cos they will never go out of fashion in my book.

So I trotted off to town all excited

only to be disappointed at every shop stop

for no one had my size.

Grr so now I have to wait and sweet talk someone into driving me across town.

In the mean time I will be looking at the lovely photos bleubird took

and just ask can someone please make a pair of these.

WE Love Five Faves - The Moon

Five faves playing along with Pip

1.

I don't really care how boring our moon really is, from where I stare its always rather beautiful.

2. Paper Moon Photo's are just so darling, so I made a collection here and if you need more check out our Favorites

4. I've seen the 1973 film Paper Moon starring Ryan O'Neal and his daughter Tatum nearly one billion times (If you haven't you're in for a super treat, its just really great).

5. And of course Sarah Moon, "I'm the Moon", Moonface was rather lovely, the 'Radiator Girl' in Lynch's Eraserhead was kind of moony, And anyway The Moon...

I was hoping this afternoon to make my nana's banana cake recipe but it was not where I thought it was so I made a very simple one up.

I had 3 super ripe bananas the kind that have no yellow left
I mashed these up.

3 super ripe bananas
150g unsalted butter
3/4 cup of sugar
2 eggs
1 table spoon of honey
2 1/2 cups of plain flour
2 tea spoons baking soda
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup of soy milk

turn oven to 170C
cream butter and sugar
add banana, eggs and honey.
Sift in all the dry ingredients and mix. Add milk.
Grease tin, pour batter in and pop in the oven.
bake for about 40 min and then pop a skewer in to make sure its done.
Leave to cool for about 20 min and then serve warm with a little cream and a nice cup of tea.
