Vintage Style Dresses For Girls and a Gorgeous Blog

Two weekends ago

Perth had a lovely Market called

Perth Upmarket

and there was so many amazing and lovely things to see



First was this oh so cute and pretty vintage style stall

with amazing dresses and bunting

for little girls


Created by this sweet and talented lady "Denise"

If I still had a little girl I would have gone crazy

The quality was amazing! This bunting was double sided and longer than usual She has a web site http://www.dressesforthem.com/ So it might be worth a visit And then this morning I found this gorgeous blog from Brisbane! Its called Hip Hooray (Another one worth the visit)
Fearturing this oh so wonderful party


Wouldnt it have been nice to have this

party for a birthday


I cant wait to search her blog for more loveliness!

Aren't some people just so clever?

Just love it!

Polka dots, stripes and fresh colours

Bed, Bath and Table always have something to tempt me

Im sure Id get on very well with their buyer

So it was time to create

But the spots are so cute!

Gorgeous with the green glass


Whilst surfing today I saw a lovely idea
