Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge

Sorry for not posting this yesterday, for Wedding Wednesday. I had a very busy morning, then went out to a beautiful hotel to celebrate my 3-year anniversary with the great love of my life. Glen and I had been hoping to get away, before the baby's arrival. We knew we couldn't afford to go away on holiday this year, so we decided that one night away at a gorgeous hotel would be our romantic escape. It was just lovely.

Anyway, here are some beautiful bridal veils for you. I'm smitten with the polka-dotted one. It's just so different, like a vintage hat veil. The 1920s-inspired one, with the flower and pearls, is also so lovely--and on-trend! One of my all-time favourites is Kate Moss' veil, with its shimmering embroidery. Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge's veil is so classic and elegant, I would have to say, its my very favourite veil.

Wonderful White

You know how much I adore white rooms. Dining rooms are no exception. Here are a few beauties I've found floating around on the internet.

It seems like a good day for me to tell you all some very happy news... I'm having a baby! 

My partner, Glen, and I are very very happy to be sharing this amazing experience together. We are just thrilled that we will be having our own little family soon. The baby is due 16 October. In a few weeks, we will find out whether we're having a boy or a girl. We're so excited! I'll keep you all updated on our new adventure!

Al Fresco Loveliness

This week, we have been enjoying such lovely warm weather, putting me in the mood for al fresco lounging and dining. I haven't actually done any such thing, but I do have the windows open, and can feel a nice soft breeze wafting into the house.
