Running this little blog of mine using my phone camera (yes it's true) has been a challenge (to say the very least). One of my birthday gifts to myself was an upgrade...to a Nikon Coolpix Bridge Camera. What I love about my new toy the most is that it's an actual camera and not a feature on a phone. To say my joy knows no bounds is only a slight exaggeration because together with this beauty I bought a tripod! Outfit posts here we come! Yes, it's really happening. 

I have amazing friends who took the time to make this here blog of mine look like something I could be proud of. I am thankful to them for many things, including the time and effort they put into making the design, my new header that I am obsessed with and the simple, clean and refreshing layout. I am so proud of their hard work I'm going to break tradition and mention them by name (usually I simply make reference to 'my friends'). Thank you Lesego, Cesc and Sne for my new blog look! I hope my readers love it as much as I do but even if they don't, know that you've made me a very happy camper!

It hasn't been quite that drastic I'll admit but whenever I've been blogging regularly and I stop for a bit I feel a bit like I've been gone too long (someone say they understand me). To fill the void I'm sure my unbearable lengthy absence has left in your lives I thought I'd share what I got up to this week.

Sometimes I like to think I'm funny...that's the only way I can explain that title anyway. I couldn't resist these three items (I have such weak willpower when it comes to depriving myself). A good base coat, hardening and quick-drying spray to save time and white nailpolish? Can I really be blamed for buying? Please say no...
