Sneaky Peek : Bonza BONDS

BONDSI have always been a loyal fan of the BONDS brand and swear by their children’s clothes for the functionality, design and wear and tear!  BONDS are now having a ‘Click Frenzy 40% Off’ sale until tomorrow afternoon.

These are some of the gorgeous outfits I have purchased for our growing daughter, who by the way has another bout of the dreaded Hand, Foot and Mouth Virus.  Poor little poppet.

Yum : Leather

Design-Covet-Leather

I have been a bit slack haven’t I with my Tuesday recipes?

I thought instead of posting a boring standard family meal today I would mix it up with some yummy leather love!  There is no denying I love all things leather – especially that beautiful natural patina that only gets better with age and use!

Moosey Doona ♥

By Nord Duvet Cover

Today I am loving our new By Nord doona cover that I have been coveting for many years, but kept baulking at the cost of shipping from Europe.  You can imagine my delight when I recently found Norsu Interiors began importing ‘By Nord’ products into Australia!

Finally that big old moose has found his way into our room, and what a dude he is!

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 125 g butter – melted
  • 2 preserved pears
  • Cinnamon and vanilla
  • Cream to serve

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 190 C
  • Mix all ingredients together
  • Pour into a spring form tin
  • Bake for 40 – 45 minutes.

Axel Mano Hat

Today I am loving these gorgeous Axel Mano Hats.  I’ve spoken of my love of hats here before and I thought I would share these beauties with you today.

The hats are stocked in my favourite shop – Hunt Leather in Melbourne and every time I visit I look longingly at them, try them on and then think … ‘Where would I wear that’?  

I am happy to admire from afar until such time I can channel my inner Audrey:
